    Hi edsche, nice work. I've just tried it out and it works well. I assume it's a process plugin? One thing I noticed, it crashes MP if there is no internet connection... or is it just me?

    Works great now :)
    The only thing I'm missing right now is a "day label" that automatically changes with every day (like the normal weather plugin does):
    Today > Today - Saturday - Sunday - Monday - Tuesday
    Tomorrow >Today - Sunday - Monday - Tuesday - Wednesday

    Other than that, great job! Keep up the good work.

    About the Basichome xml's you asked for in a PM (RSS button to change feeds):
    I have no idea which version you're using, so I'm gonna give you the steps that I did..

    1/ Changed the RSS Image code a bit
    Code:
    <control><description>RSS image</description>
    	<type>button</type>
    	<id>1111</id>
    	<width>70</width>
    	<height>28</height>
    	<posY>505</posY>
    	<posX>60</posX>
    	<onup>1702</onup>
    	<texture>#rssimg</texture>
    	<visible>plugin.isenabled(InfoService)</visible>
    </control>

    2/ Changed the dummy label code a bit
    Code:
    <control><description>Dummy label indicating WEER visibility</description>
    	<id>1003</id>
    	<type>label</type>
    	<posX>100</posX>
    	<posY>-100</posY>
    	<width>500</width>
    	<height>0</height>
    	<label>Movies</label>
    	<visible>Control.HasFocus(1703)|Control.HasFocus(1803)|Control.HasFocus(1903)|Control.IsVisible(1103)|Control.HasFocus(1111)</visible>
    	</control>

    3/ Search & Replace ALL
    <ondown>66</ondown> with <ondown>1111</ondown>

    I included my test basichome.xml ;-)

    Edit/ You should still add an <action> to the RSS image button, so that it does something ;-)

    I dont understand right now ;) You want a label with, for example "Today - Saturday - Sunday - Monday - Tuesday" and for the next day "Today - Sunday - Monday - Tuesday - Wednesday" or ?

    i think he just means a label for each day. so if day 1 is monday one day it says monday, but if day 1 is then tuesday the next day, it automatically changes to tuesday, or something like that?

    I'm thinking he means to replace the "Tomorrow" label with the Day, e.g.,
    |Today| |Saturday| |Sunday| ..... instead of: |Today| |Tomorrow| |Sunday| ....

    If you’re planning to submit a pull request, let’s go through the list of issues and their solutions. I or someone from the team will create a Jira ticket, and for each ticket, you’ll make the changes and submit a pull request. This will be transparent and straightforward.

    Ok, thanks much. I will look into the instructions above. For the moment, I turned off the "Automatic channel logo update" in Settings (which somehow I had missed, I think because it wasn't an option previously), and the deleted everything in the Flat-default folder and populated it with my own logos. Works, so far.
