Re: Avalon 0.9.3.294 Beta ***21-07-11*** for MP 1.2.x

Food for thought: I have all my channels in groups (Music, Movies etc) and just wondered if it would be possible for the skin to present me with my channel groups as a menu whenever guide is pressed. From there I select Music if thats what I'm looking for, pretty much like the Sky guide does and obviously I wouldn't expect all users to what this so an option in skin settings to turn this on or off depending on the users setup (ie groups or no groups).

Is this possible?

Any thoughts on this?

    From what I understand of the way the EPG is coded, this is not possible.

    I guess elliotmc ist right, that sounds more like a thing that needs to be coded in MP and can't be realized by the skin.

    But surely its just a change to the skin to get it to display a menu same as it does when you move over to the channel groups and click on it? Any of the devs have thoughts about this?

    after installing the update i don't have the beautiful weather icons anymore in the homescreen (only the ugly comic-style ones) - anyone else experiencing the same?

    sorry to ask the same question again...but is this a known bug or can i do anything about it? until now i tried cleaning the skin cache and reinstalled the update patch - without luck :(

    Yes, I had the same. Not sure if something was changed in the skin but I do have a work around.
    Find the avalon\media\weather folder (for me it was C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\skin\Avalon\media\weather) and copy the 64x64 and 128x128 folders into the weather folder of your Mediaportal program folder (for me it was C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\weather). You should overwrite all.
    Then clear the cache and try again.

    Hope this helps.

    The issue with the plugin list is still there...
