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)?

    Thanks... So annoying. I didn't notice it had stopped working and missed some recordings. The version number still seems to be 1.7.2. Hard to tell that the file has been updated. Sigh.

    In the UK, the EPG transmitted in the DVB-T datastream allows each programme to have two genres -- a primary genre, and a secondary genre (i.e. a subgenre). The primary genre might be something like Film (or Movie in the USA). The secondary genre for Film might be something like: Action, Comedy, Crime, Fantasy, Romance, Science...

    Are different people taking turns watching the same thing on the same HTPC? For me, separating users in MP2 is a drawback, as is the interface. Simply put, this can't be done in MP1, or rather, it can't be done quickly, because everything would have to be rewritten. But if each user logs in with their own Windows account, MP1 can...

    Hi This is a general question about OnX. I have been using the TvWishList plugin for a while and have recently updated (update install) from MP 1.36 x86 to 1.37 x86 and found there seemed to be no Onx menu in the TV guide. I then configured the onx.presets.xml file like I would normally do with updates or fresh installs, but still...

    Good evening, the last weeks my MP2.5 Server with TVE3 is running not very good/stable. After 30 min the server quits working after changing EPG from EPG Buddie to Clickfinder (TV Movie). The OS and the MP2.5 Server Software were installed several times new, but in general nothing changed. Are there any changes or setting needed for...
