[QUOTE="doveman, post: 872053, member: 67412"] Hi catavolt Really looking forward to 1.3 and your updated skins for it :) It's a shame but not too bad about the lack of BasicHome Editor, as it's not that hard to edit the BasicHome .xml files. Obviously harder than using the editor and too much for the average non-technical user probably, but having had to look at them for various reasons recently, they're fairly clear :) If I could make a suggestion, it would be great to have a "Free Disk Space" readout for the partition used for TV Recordings, either on the Home Screen, the TV Recordings screen or both, using HTPCInfo I guess, unless there's another way that doesn't require that. I know this information can be viewed by going into HTPC Info, but there's a lot of information there that is somewhat overwhelming for the average user, so for them to just be able to easily see how much space they've got for recordings would be nice. There used to be a plugin called "DriveFreeSpace" which did this, but that hasn't been maintained in a long while now. I really can't get used to the TV/Video OSD that shows all the buttons I'm afraid (I think it just bugs me as I have no use for any of the buttons and so it's a waste of space and too much clutter, guess that's my OCD!), so if you could consider an optional that looks like the one that appears when pausing, but with the facility to press up to show the programme information, that would be great. :) [/QUOTE]
