    Thanks aj1405, I've been thinking about something like that for a while - similar to the Wii interface, a wall of icons that slide across the screen. What do you (anybody) think?

    Please make that optional if you do and not the default. I much prefer submenus with very few choices on screen first (Watch, Listen, etc). It just looks too busy otherwise IMO.

    Just installed indigo 2.1, and re-vamped the menu to suite my needs!
    If anyone wants the .xml let me know - its just a tweak of Spragleknas's .xml!

    Big Up to Mr. Psycho Reptile for the BEST SKINS OUT!! =)

    :D

    Is it posible to have a 3 or 2 item menu?
    After Watch id like to see only Movies, UitzendingGemist and TV Series... How can I get rid of the 2 extra buttons?

    Update 27 march 2008 (GameMenu - added Music Trivia Plugin)

    This is my customization for Monochrome and Indigo (thanks Psycho Reptile for your help):
    Home Basic Menu with 5 sub-menu (Games, Listen, Watch, TV, Others).

    Hi
    massimo

    There would appear to be a small error in your menu for the watch screen. The online video button is missing an icon. I have attached an updated xml file.

    Ok, so perhaps a solution, but not the "right" solution.

    I was not previously aware of the "Drive Free Space" plugin, and it is not easy to find. (There really ought to be an easier way of finding plugins.) There is this thread that introduces the plugin, and this thread that details some changes to the Titan skin made by Gary Martyn (from 2013 :eek: ). I installed the plugin on my Aorus...

    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...

    Installing other software, especially MP1, which is partly sharing Tv service with MP2, can make everything worse. Please upload your debug log files, if you want to solve the issue.
