    i personally think this is the only part of the skin which lets it down, there is something about the epg which does not look right for me. Looks out of proportion somehow, cant put my finger on it. Think a 7 row epg seems a bit `useless` in terms of useability, maybe its the size of the epg compared to default wide, seems like its zoomed in and looks big, if that makes sense.
    I really love the skin in every other way and am really great full for all the hard work put into both the skin and mepo :)

    I agree.. it's very difficult to scroll the EPG with only 7 rows - it basically scrolls past too fast. 11 rows will be great once the layout is fixed hopefully!
    Fab skin though - really brings MP bang up to date!

    I think its too few rows also, but I wouldn't want to sacrifice program sypnosis for extra rows so stick with the 7. Avallon / Avallonis had a guide I really liked, think that was 10 and it kept sypnosis and TV preview as well :)

    The Default Wide '11 row EPG' theme has 11 rows + synopsis + TV preview (although it's quite small) so it's all possible....

    I've already added loads of hack and slash fixes to the theme already I'm starting to forget what I've actually done to it lol. Not to stamp my feet or anything as I'm sure theres some logical reasoning behind it, but waiting months for skin fixes which are already fixed seems 'lengthy' if they are just skin files and nothing in MePo that's changing to accomodate them?

    I'll take a look at it, thanks SciDoctor.

    Isn't this normal? I mean perhaps you should first do some config before you can start using mediaportal?

    You need to use "TV Server Config". On the "TV Channels" panel, you will find that there are two entries for "Quest" -- the old one and the new one. Simply delete the old one. When this happens in the future, you can select a channel and click the "Preview" button on the panel. If the channel is working, a small preview screen appears...

    Thanks for that. I found "Chnlineup" in the Sky grab and "FreesatEPG" in the Freesat grab and enabled them both in EPG Collector, and also set them as the EPG grabber for radio in MP2. But here's the odd thing: The next time I opened the XMLTV EPG mapper (where you map actual channels to channels available in the EPG), the radio...
