It was not a matter of style. The logos I use are the official reworked ones. I'm always using the latest official logos.
.

Thanks. I appreciate what your saying, and I am aware the logos are changing from the end of Oct on certain things, and not before April next year on DVDs/Bluray etc.

I just mean for me personally I find the new logos quite ugly and unstylish. And I wonder, would there perhaps be a way of including both the old and new logo style and let the end user choose which to use?

    In MP2 no options to select logo styles will be added. But you can just exchange the images in the image folder of Nereus skin after installing MP2.

    Now that this skin is out with 2.3, is there a way to remove shortcuts from the main menu? There are several I don't use and it would be nice to remove them. If not, is there a way to change the order they're listed?

    I'm thinking to slightly change the Program Tile layout in homescreen of Nereus.
    But I'm not 100% sure, so let's do a vote here. Press "Agree" or comment, if I should change, or comment why not.

    Currently the progress circle is shown, which is quite beuatiful I think. The idea was, that the favourite channel next to the program always fits, because the current program is only shown for favourite channels. However, as on the screenshot, it's sometimes not the case, so a program is visible and one doesn't know which channel belongs to it (bottom right).

    My new target design looks like below. As in other screens the progress is shown in the bottom with a linear indicator and the channel logo is shown in upper right side. It looks not as good as current implementation, so I'm unsure.

    How about the current variant and you just place the channel logo in the top middle-right? Perhaps it’s worth a mock-up, because currently it’s also hard to decide for me.

    I tried, it looks too overloaded. I implemented for now like below. On focus the linear indicator is moved up by 5 pixel to be not overlapped by the focus frame. Additional good thing is, that there is more space for the program text now and wrapping is less (readability).

    How about merging "Favorites" and "Current programs" (as "Favorites" already contains the logo)?

    The reason I was thinking I needed more RAM is that TV now seems to be HiDef and so the files have grown. I edit the files before storing them, to reduce some size. It is finding that slower, I think. Or it could just be because I'm expecting more? The Baseboard manufacturer says ASUSTech Computer Inc; Baseboard product P7P55D-E...

    I should point out that the developers have not formally left the project, and development has not formally stopped. The developers have instead simply "faded away", gradually spending less and less time on MP2 until the present, when they spend no time on MP2. But one or more of the developers might return next week! It is impossible...
