Genre Colors How to? (1 Viewer)

[gonzo90017]

i got this working in MP Alpha by:

MP Config> GUI> Select Skin> Edit Skin Settings> TV Guide>
CHeck all except genre color key
 
TV> TV Client> Guide Settings> Select a genre under "Guide Genre"
Under "Mapped Genres" select the categories for that genre you would like colored
(you have to map at least 1 or else you wont get coloring for that genre)

But in 1.3 beta the Guide Setting under TV> TV Client are nowhere to be found.

You have to check your tv server setup first (dvb epg) to map the respective categories and in the mp setup you will find the important tabs
under GUI-skin settings.

Cheers,

Thanks that worked great. The one problem I found is that the genre color doesn't seem to change for programs that are currently airing. I don't know if I explained myself but here's a picture that might explain it better. As you can see in the picture both Dinosaur Train and Maya and Miguel should have the same color as the other kids programs. But instead I get a no color.

Edit: Just remembered that I could change this by changing the "On Now Color".
