Name of Mod: 16 Row TV Guide
Description:
Australians recently got two new digital channels and I personally hate the way the EPG scrolls if the channel list doesn't fit on the screen (scrolling down past the bottom of the list takes you to the top, but scrolling up at the top of the list leaves you stuck there).
This is a mod to fit 16 rows of EPG data on the screen. This has been tested on a 1360x768 screen only (ie at the 1280x720 skin resolution). Can't test 1900x1080 unfortunately
The mod tidies up the TV Guide xml file a bit, locating everything necessary to change the number of rows in the various 8, 10, 12 (and new 16) custom row xml files.
Compatible with Streamed MP version: 1.3.1
Files that are changed:
Obviously, if taken up, this would also require changes to the installer. To use, just copy these files into the skin folder. To switch back to one of the other guide row sizes, change the relevant line in mytvguide.xml to point to the appropriate mytvguide.common.x.rows.channeltemplate.xml file.
The attached screenshot only shows 15 channels - rest assured, this was tested with 16, but the new 16th channel hasn't started broadcasting yet and I reset my duplicate test channel.
Cheers,
Rob.
