[QUOTE="SubsonicsSmoof, post: 951519, member: 110467"] I´m a fan of Argus TV-Recorder (formerly known as ForTheRecords / 4TR). The name of the project (and the plugin for MP clients) changed also from 4TR to Argus. So actually a lot of skins aren´t able to support the new plugin. Here´s a short tutorial how to modify an existing skin with 4TR support to support the new Argus plugin: The tutorial is tested with Avalon but should also work on other skins too. 1. Go to the MP-Skin directory of your favorite skin (e.g. "[I]C:/ProgramData/Team MediaPortal/MediaPortal/skin/Avalon[/I]") 2. Search for all filenames containing "[I]4tr[/I]" (there should be xml-files inside the root directory and png-files at "/[I]media[/I]"-subdirectory 3. Copy all files to a seperate directory (e.g "[I]desktop/Argus-skin-mod" and "desktop/Argus-skin-mod/media[/I]") 4. rename all "[I]4TR[/I]"-parts of the filenames to "[I]Argus[/I]" (case-sensitive!) 5. open each xml-file with notepad, search for "[I]4TR[/I]", replace it with "[I]Argus[/I]" (not all files have "[I]4tr[/I]" inside) and save again. 6. copy the content of your seperate directory back to your mp-skin-directory (e.g. "[I]C:/ProgramData/Team MediaPortal/MediaPortal/skin/Avalon[/I]") 7. Start MP an be happy inside the attachment you´ll find the skinextension for the Avalon skin [/QUOTE]
