    How do I change the OSD color from Black to a color that is actually visable?
    Bit annoying, I can't see how much I am skipping forwards/backwards.

    I am also wondering the same as the above, any 4:3 plans? I am using MP on two various screens, one 4:3, and one 16:10.

    Thanks!

    Is this the video OSD's that you are talking about?

    I don't know why the skip steps doesn't show. I have tried just about everything. If anyone can help here I would be grateful...?

    Also remaining time does not show on vidoOSD.xml. Why?

    Hey

    This skin looks amazing. Any plans for a 4:3 version for us CRT guys?

    THX!
    Not at the moment. I think I would need help to do this so if there is any skinne that would like to help, please sign up...

    Surely you mean the steps +15sec, 30sec, etc.... => The text is in black so that is it not visable in most shows/films because the upper band is black also. If you change colors it may help.

    By searching your xml files only 3 have the html color 'FF000000' those are
    - tvmsnosd.xml
    - mytvFullScreen.xml
    - TVOSD.xml

    For the 'black' gave me some other also
    -videoFullScreen.xml

    Thx
    Tom

    Can you guide me to that setting then? I thought I had it in white already. It works on tvOSD...

    Hi,

    I tried to modify some things in the 'videoFullScreen.xml'

    When I set the textcolor of 'Row 1 label', 'Row 2 label' 'Row 3 label' on white the display of the steps (forward backward) are in white.
    <control>
    <description>row 1 label</description>
    ... <textcolor>White</textcolor>
    ... </control>
    <control>
    <description>row 2 label</description>
    ...
    <textcolor>White</textcolor>
    ...
    </control>
    <control>
    <description>row 3 label</description>
    ...
    <textcolor>White</textcolor>
    ...
    As you can seen in the attached images on the right hand top corner first it was black. Then changed the 'videoFullScreen.xml' as mentioned above.
    In attachment the changed xmlfile to place in the directory \program files\team mediaportal\mediaportal\skin\core\

    I dont know if they all have to be changed (Row 1, Row 2 and Row 3) . Hope this solves it.

    Will post some other small errors soon. Thanks for the great skin. I use it daily.

    Small error on tvguidepage

    Hi Djohansson,

    Found a small error when a tvprogram is selected the red dot (see attachment) isn't showing in the right place.

    This should be with the program information below. Imo just left of the program hours.

    I dont have a clue where to find that parameter. Maybe you know?

    Hi Daniel,

    4 the recording dot. I did some research. In the mytvguide.xml the following control is used for the red dot (see post above). Changed only the posX and posY so it would fit.

    <control>
    <description>record pin</description>
    <type>image</type>
    <id>31</id>
    <posX>850</posX>
    <posY>584</posY>
    <texture>tvguide_record_button.png</texture>
    <visible>no</visible>
    <animation effect="fade" time="250">WindowOpen</animation>
    <animation effect="fade" time="500">WindowClose</animation>
    </control>

    Maybe this will interfere with the title scrolling if is has a long name?

    In attachment the xml file.

    If u need some help for other skinningproblems will try to help but i'm a noobie in skinning (but would love to know more, ;)

    Cheerio

    Thanks a lot, it works perfectly.

    Surprised that no one else has asked for a fix for this though.

    Distortion

    Hi,

    I’m getting some kind of distortion on the skin. I think it’s related to TV being switched ON. I’m using PVR-150 through s-video only. I’ve included a screenshot for reference. Any idea why or how I can get rid of it?

    Distortion: Dots and lines on video list. Dots on FOXTEL word. Dots on [My Movies] word. The distortion is not static, it changes to more or less.

    Thank you for your time,
    riadmelb

    Hi,

    I also get some distortion regardless of what skin I'm using. Do you only see this when using core?
