In this case you have a general problem. You did already configure the tuner according to the WIKI manual and see channels in TV-Setup?
If yes, please attach your log files, so we can see what is happening on your PC. You have a LogCollector icon on your desktop for that.

I get that too, on my older Toshiba LCD TV (dates from 2006). Thankfully, my current Sony TV (from 2015) does not exhibit this behaviour. :)
I too use MP1's blank screen saver, with a one-minute timeout. Certain settings on the Sony TV allow it to recognise a blank screen, and cause it to turn the LEDs off. This reduces wear-and...

Hi,
is there any way to change the screensaver of the Titanium Extended Theme for the Blue Vision Skin from 'transparent black...
I voted no, because I would be the designer to do it most propbably ;) From 11.12. until end of the year I'm not available, so I have simply no time. Additionally I've a list of other topics to do. If it's just to make a look a bit like Christmas and I'm bored on weekend I could give it a try at least :p

Anyone remember the MP1 Christmas skin with the (sadly missed) MePo man holding a TV aerial in the snow? Me too! Well it's getting...
i have found a little optical problem in the titan skin.
when i look in the series, i see the watch series in blue letters, but the movies are always in white letters. in BlueVision-default is it right, but here i see the watch icon behind the movie.

Cinema plugin is not working since November 2016, because Google stopped the service unfortunately.
WebRadio should work. But to help more information are necessary. From where did you download the plugin? Please attach log files when ever something is not working.
Assuming that you took the correct version from download section...

Why is the front screen not so user friendly?
The MP1 front screen user interface is perfect. Looks great, works great and most...
MR, I appreciate your attention, I can ask for this feature in the provided link, but if MP1 has this feature already, I don't care installing it, there's not much else I'd use in MP, it's mainly for watching movies with a pleasant interface.
I'll probably have to create or find the thread in MP1 forums right?
Thanks again everyone...

Hi everyone!
I'd like to start thanking everyone for reading this, and also for this amazing media center.
I'm starting here today...
Ok, now it's more clear for me and I think I can help.
here you can find the listview styles for the Titanium skin: https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/blob/master/MediaPortal/Incubator/SlimTvClient/Skin/Titanium/themes/default/styles/SlimTvStyles.xaml#L251-L334
But to add information on the left side you need a...

I'm just getting into skinning MP2 and one of my first goals is to add some info to my recorded shows as I scroll through them...
I think this is possible.
If you look at the github repo of OnlineVideos (MP2 Plugin subfolder skin) there are subfolder below a skin for theme, e.g.:
Reflexion\themes\default\styles\
I think this is possible.

Hi,
does somebody know how to handle theme designs for plugins?
For example I created a BlueVision skin for OnlineVideos. This...
It wasn't a 100% fix but it helped. I was able to knock the home page down from 15 to 6 buttons with a combination of the methods you posted.
For plugins I removed OnlineVideos, PartyMusicPlayer, Tve3RecordingMetadataExtractor and Utilities
In media-actions I was unable to comment out the lines without the majority of the buttons...

Because you did not configure the behavior in the settings.
This has to do with the work states, see also MP2-704. Press EPG a second time to close - or use the red button.
Press 'Red' or select 'Full screen' in the context menu
Yes. Ask any skinner.

Hi guys,
Does somebody know if devs are working on StreamMP for Mediaportal 2?
Thanks
Yeah that's ok. He replied to my message as such. I've said enough in the document for it to be taken seriously. Cause we don't know each other and I don't know where people are in understanding what I'm taking about I spent 1/2 the document explaining why things matter. That might be talking down to people or it might be the...

hi,
Partly it's quite hard to follow your words and honestly I'm after reading all your posts not 100% sure what you want to reach or achieve. Feedback is welcome and I'd like to understand all of your points. Perhaps it's also me, because I'm not native English.
You mentioned that all skins have some good points, but seem not like...

I personally don't like the default 4-directional tile layout!......especially across multiple pages.......same question arises in my head - do I go page up/down?.......Keep the 2-way up/down layout/skin which loops.......way more intuitive and smooth. Don't even like the tile icons.....totally ruins being simple and stylish.

I've taken your idea and implemented the extension right now: https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2/commits/FEAT_SkinResolution_v2. It's much better as it caused nearly no changes in markup (y).
The extension is also extensible :D ;) for future resolutions.

I've done some experimenting, and as far as I know, there isn't a treeview like control with the following properties:
no checkbox/radiobuttons needed
+ and - button before each treeitem that has children
higlight the caption of the selected item.
the first can be done by selecting the default, but then I don't get the 3rd (which I...

Ah ok, just saw from the last commit date, that you modified some code already.
Just wanted to be sure you are aware it's not working 100% yet. I'm without laptop and waiting patiently for the next version :)

@offbyone this would be really amazing if we can build a link between VS designer and MP2 for rendering!
This feature already exists, inside SkinHelperPlugin there is a "ReloadSkin" action, which maps following shortcuts:
public static readonly Key RELOAD_SCREEN_KEY = Key.F3;
public static readonly Key RELOAD_THEME_KEY = Key.F4...

Is there a real definition what is "latest"? In MP2 I list the newest recently imported items. Depending on media type, there are many possible date information available, let's give a few examples:
The MediaAspect.ATTR_RECORDINGTIME contains a quite common date: for Audio/Movies there is the "release year". For TV recordings it's...
