    What do you think about reducing the size of the buttons a touch to enable there to be 4 per row instead of 3, seems a waste of space on a 1080p display.

    This can be easily done by changing one style definition in xaml. We can create a theme with this single change without need to modify the source images :)

    Quick example, took only few xaml-values to be changed. This is a real advantage of vector graphics, you simply declare them in other proportions :D

    Nice much better space usage with 4 or 5 buttons to a row :)

    Possibly change the default background to the blue one too as that is what turn a few users away from titan, such a colorful image looks nice but takes away the focus from information, buttons etc.

    Hehe, are we discussing new skin ideas here? ;-)

    I would like to keep this out from this thread here and collect some new ideas for different skin / themes in new thread.

    So back to request from thread title/first post for new icons for the existing theme :)

    MP1 MP2 Case Downsizing DE
    Most (all?) small PC cases accept only ITX motherboards, which have only one PCI-E slot. So you could install only one PCI-E tuner card. A quad-tuner card would give you four tuners, but if you wanted more tuners you would need to use the TBS eight-tuner card, or use external tuners, either USB tuners (available with single or dual...

    Many thanks for the answer. So far I've used Logitech's Harmony hub. This allows you to control all components (including the media portal). I have now contacted the Sofabaton hotline. It should also work here like with the Harmony. Unfortunately, not all of the IR codes are correct. You can also learn commands here. But that doesn't...
