[Default skin]
I can't seem to find where the skin file is for the popup when you click on a recording in 'recordings' screen, and wish to play or delete a recording..
i looked in recordings.xml, recordings2, popups...couldn't find any mention of descriptions, which i want to lengthen just a bit, it's cutting off the bottom of letters like g and y etc...
anyone know where i should look?
Windows 10 Blue Screen of Death (Kernel Security Check Failure) crops up when looking for channels with Next PVR from WinTV dongle (which was quite happy with Windows Media Center).
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
When I browse to the nextpvr guide page. I get the following error.
Somebody saw this before?

Just popping in after a long absence to say thank you for all the dev efforts. Just upgraded from 2.mumble & all seems well.
I am hovering over the donate page, but am unsure which option to choose. I'm in AU, should I be an honorary kiwi? Or just use the 'NextPVR support' option?
I am able to see the TV Guide and schedule recordings, etc. in the NextPVR app, but I don't see anything when I log into NEWA on my Mac. The EPG is completely empty. I have tried running nextpvr.exe -emptyepg, but that didn't do anything. On the local computer running NextPVR everything is working well. However, through NEWA I get Also when I do an episode search and I try to do a recording, I get a Runtime Error. Is there a way I can correct this? I am also not sure what logs might help in this case.
Some programs have colon in title such as Live:whatever. No fanart/images show when using TV listings but do with default guide/recordings.
This is because a colon cannot be used in filename and an underscore is used instead. NextPVR handles this correctly but TV listings does not.
Thanks
I can control the OSD playback text elements a little better after some Jarvis changes, and I was wondering what you prefer, highlighting the show name or episode name (Kodi style)?
So after upgrading to Windows 10 I noticed that the font in NextPVR (DroidSans) would render in bold everywhere. I much prefer how it renders in Windows 7, which is as the skin is designed to, with bold for titles and normal weight for descriptions. Normal weight fits more on screen, and looks very elegant and readable. It also bugged me that there was a bug.
The fix is:
1) Install the DroidSans and DroidSans-Bold fonts as system fonts. To do so, right click the font files, select "Install".
2) Edit Global.xml in the skin folder, changing all instances of font="DroidSans" to font="Droid Sans". Note the space that is added.
I've attached an updated Global.xml, and example pictures.
Perhaps this could be added to the next installer?
For information: It appears that the error arises from a change in the way Windows handles font families. It is now particular in how it looks for font weights/styles. When using a non-system font, it seems to default to the first approximate match it finds in the folder. It is looking for the Droid Sans font name, and will find it no matter the font's filename. However, if the bold weight font is first in the file order, it uses that for everything. For example, if A.ttf is Bold, and B.ttf is Normal, it will render everything in bold. Swap the file names, and everything renders in Normal. It appears that DroidSans-Bold.ttf is considered to come before DroidSans.ttf. However, it doesn't appear to proceed to find the bold weight after finding the normal weight. The only solution I have found is installing as system fonts. Note then it is important that Global.xml uses the correct font name for the font family, i.e. Droid Sans with a space.
