It appears that the textures are not being applied to the interface elements. From memory the texture paths are absolute at the moment so if the textures are not in the correct location then you will get blank (black) textures. this should not be an issue in the next version as it will be skinable.
Anyway try making sure the textures are in the folder path
%XBMC Root%\scripts\mediaportal\skin\media\
Let me know if this helps, also I believe that if you look at the script output using the white button from the script panel you should see error messages relating to this.
Apologies for the static paths :?

Yep, this works. Thanks. I had the skins in wrong folder. Emphasise this in the manual please.
Know when I go and select a recorded movie and press a green button nothing happens. I've compressed a file within MP so it is no longer dvr-ms but still nothing happens. Nothing in the MP log file also. Any clues?
Thanks for helping.

regarding the recoring not playing, you will need to check you file share settings on the MP box to make sure your Recordings folder is shared out.
Then check to make sure you can access it in XBMC under my Videos.
Also confirm that in mpsettings you have the correct local and remote path set.
If your having trouble with it still email me your TVDatabase from MP and your mpsettings.py and I will check the settings.

thechad, can I make a suggestion/request?, use the XBMSP protocol instead of or as an option to SMB/SAMBA :wink:
Why you ask? Well firstly was designed for streaming, (SMB/SAMBA is not), it's faster/smoother, and it supports auto-detect,
(the auto-detect function would fit perfectly in here as it would make network configuration so much simpler / almost none).
If you could implement a XBMSP/ccXStream server (in C# code) as part of your plugin for MediaPortal that be really great 8)
You can find more information (inc. code and docs) about XBMSP (and ccXStream) here:
http://mfxstream.sourceforge.net / http://sourceforge.net/projects/mfxstream
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xbmc/ccxstream-1.0.15.tar.gz?download
http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/xbmc/ccxstream-1.0.15-win.rar?download
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pxbmsps
PS! Also checkout the TiVo-version of ccXStream-server (as it streams MPEG-TS) and it's respective python-scripts:

Hi Chad,
Tested your latest version and seems ok now. Channels work without the groups and no lockups in the EPG. What's on now is nice!
Only found that the second option 'on at?' was taking extreem long when I entered something (btw, what should be entered here? May need some clarification on this option in the screen) when it came back to the channel section nothing seemed to work anymore, that is... buttons work when clicked but underlying function didn't seem to work.
With the channelguide, can't recall if requested earlier, but since you got the what's on now working.. could you filter out all times in the channel guide already passed?
