I really like the TV listing plugin as it shows the complete description when i choose a show, anyway, I also like the sleekness of the nuoro plugin, but nuoro still does not support the TV Listing plugin. So I copied a standard tv listing skin and copied it over to the nuoro skin. I think nuoro uses a higher resolution since the standard tv listing is much smaller in the nuoro skin. I then proceeded to adjust the skin.xml of the tv listing, I was able to adjust most to fit nuoro, except whenever I navigate thru the guide, a ghosting effect happens as seen in the attached file.

Can anybody help, am not really good at skinning. I also attached the revised skin that I used.

ok first thing, you are not making the skin the correct resolution, I would suggest basically copying the TV Guide skin and then changing names of things as necessary, keeping the location and sizes of the objects the same. it looks like alot of things have very similar names to the TV Guide plugin which comes with GBPVR.

this would give you a skin that is not a small image stretched to your screen (thats the whole point of using Nuoro isnt it?)

oh and another tip, when youre taking a screenshot in windows hitting alt+print screen will only capture the currently active window.

no idea why there is that wierd ghosting, but I would still suggest completely changing the skin file, may get rid of that problem.

K, I reverted back to standard tv listing, and ghosting effect disappeared, I will investigate this further.

btw, thanks for tip on capturing windows.

you should not have to do much work to get tv listings to be the same resolution as the rest of the skins, take a look at the TV Guide skin for Nuoro and the TV Listings skin. I think alot of the fields ae pretty similar, to the point that it shouldnt be much work to just copy the TV Guide skin.xml file and change what you need to for TV Listings
