[QUOTE="ajp8164, post: 830331, member: 64375"] [b]Re: Skin engine enhancements (themes, guide colors, skin functions, weather settings.[/b] Sounds like your trying to setup the Default skin with genre colors? I haven't done that. Have you tried the Avalon test skin I posted? I agree that setup is essentially non-existent. I'll create a addition to the Configuration tool to configure the genre map and colors but I don't know if that will be received as a new feature or simply addressing the "bug" that it doesn't exist yet - what do you think? If I can code the changes to the Configuration tool and deliver them to the FEAT-3779 branch that would be easiest for everyone, including me. Btw: the config tool would be transparent to the EPG grab source since I'd be looking up genres from the tv database (don't care how they got there).. It must have gotten there somehow - it's in MediaPortal.xml right? Anyway, after thinking about it for a bit, I think you've identified a general bug with skin settings (nice going ;-) When the user loads a skin (with skin settings) and then uses the GUI to change skins (perhaps the new skin has it's own skin settings) I never unload the old skins settings. I need to go through this "cleanup" exercise otherwise things can get mixed up. MP never writes the genrecolors though so, I'm not sure what happened there. [/QUOTE]
