Strange that the preview window used to work not too long ago especially that little to no development is being carried out in that area atm. It's been a long time but I think the reason I changed was that MP grabs the Freesat data and was a little patchy but EPG collector is capable of a full Sky grab and provides channel data and...

Possibly an easier way to do this is to simply create a new folder on your PC and put a copy of the zip file in there. Then double click on the zip file and because there is no .dat file you should get 2 new windows appear. One is the DOS box where the first line shows the version no. etc,

What exactly does setting the IP address to a blank in the Server table do? Is the IP address no longer stored in the Server table so it accommodates IP address changes?

I have looked at your log files, and the "TsWriter.log" file shows continuity errors, which (I think) is pixelation by another name. But you knew that already. Unfortunately I am not a TV expert, and so I cannot identify the cause of the problem from the log file. The usual cause of pixelation is a signal that is of insufficient...

MP1 MP2 Quick question - skinning MyPics (1 Viewer) DE
Exactly what I did over the weekend and it has worked. Folder thumbs looking much better with black faded edges. I also adjusted the border widths so when zoomed to 16:9 they appear even all the way round. Shame about the cross in the middle being a little distorted but there is no way around that.

In Windows, there are associations between file extensions and the programs that process files with those extensions. For example, there might be an association between files with the extension "TXT" and the program "Notepad.exe".

Thanks, it did not occur to me to try option 2. That works perfectly. I was definitely using option 4 previously though. I figured that it included both entries because they both had the time 2202 as start or finish times. It was weird that it treated week 1 and week 2 differently though. Anyway, thanks again.
