[QUOTE="Anthony Parry, post: 1213284, member: 160205"] Hi [USER=145639]@ge2301[/USER] First of all, great work on the WMC Skin and especially bringing the dark theme along, i love it :) I was wondering if it's possible to add more information to the EPG screen - The XML i use has some information included that would be really useful to have when browsing through the full guide - mainly the category tag, HDTV tag <quality>HDTV</quality> and the Repeat tag (<previously-shown/>) UK television is full of repeats and the repeat tag is then especially useful when the series and episode number is not provided in the epg data. Some programmes have these indicators in the program description too, but as they are in block brackets like [HD] i guess mediaportal ignores things inside square brackets as they never show up? Could these be incorporated into the synopsis area at the bottom of the EPG screen? Maybe something like: [B]Oxford Street Revealed [/B]1.7 (Documentary, HD, Repeat) Observational documentary series following the people who keep Oxford Street running. The undercover police team crack down on distraction thieves trying a new trick, a shoulder roll. At Debenhams, a French make-up line launches, with live body painting in the shop's windows. Plus a look at Oxford Street from above with a specialist aerial photographer. [B]Run All Night [/B](Film, 2015, HD) A mob enforcer is forced into action when his estranged son becomes the target of a hit. Liam Neeson, Joel Kinnaman, Ed Harris Here's a sample of the EPG XML - there's also a lot more info provided like audio qulity, acting and directing credits, release year etc but there's only so much space for info on the guide and the extra information isn't always important!
