[QUOTE="tourettes, post: 832391, member: 10858"] [b]Re: Skin engine enhancements (themes, guide colors, skin functions, weather settings.[/b] TV server should collect all the genres all the time in addition to the DVB spec's defaults. It is not ok just to dump the current state as it would be changing all the time and user would have to grab EPG multiple times to get majority of the genres. Initial setup wont ever be nice... it will be good only for the DVB sourced EPG that has static list. Genre colouring in a heterogenous EPG environment with dynamicly changing content is really hard feature to create properly / user friendly. Maybe the 1st instance should be just DVB EPG that is static and then extended later on to cover the dynamic genre sources like webepg.
