How to adjust TV Guide displayed timeline? (1 Viewer)

[vfrvulcan]

I've just started on MP and want to make better use of the real estate in the TV Guide.

No matter how much searching through the skin guides etc I can't find how to adjust the maximum TV Guide timeline.

The default control in DefaultWide (1.2.0) allows selection between one and four hours. Is there any way to change this? If so where? Looked through most of the xml files files but can't seem to find it. Hope it isn't hard coded.

Any help appreciated.

Hi Aaron

It is hard coded. The relevant code is in TvEngine3/TVLibrary/TvPlugin/TvPlugin/TvGuideBase.cs:

        case Action.ActionType.ACTION_INCREASE_TIMEBLOCK:
          {
            _timePerBlock += 15;
            if (_timePerBlock > 60)
            {
              _timePerBlock = 60;
            }
            GUISpinControl cntlTimeInterval = GetControl((int)Controls.SPINCONTROL_TIME_INTERVAL) as GUISpinControl;
            cntlTimeInterval.Value = (_timePerBlock / 15) - 1;
            Update(false);
            SetFocus();
          }
          break;

And possibly also:

            if (iControl == (int)Controls.SPINCONTROL_TIME_INTERVAL)
            {
              GUISpinControl cntlTimeInt = GetControl((int)Controls.SPINCONTROL_TIME_INTERVAL) as GUISpinControl;
              int iInterval = (cntlTimeInt.Value) + 1;
              if (iInterval > 4)
              {
                iInterval = 4;
              }
              _timePerBlock = iInterval * 15;
              Update(false);
              SetFocus();
              return true;
            }

Thanks MM,

Shame I can't program (Apple // BASIC doesn't count!), I would have liked to extend it to 6 or 8 hours.

Appreciate the reply.
