I have enclosed a zip with v1.1 skin file. There is a skin.rtf file with the changes marked in red.

I think something is mixed up. Last time I checked, Boston was in the AL East :eek: (screen shot attached)

Nice catch -- I think I have my home and away stats mixed up! :o

Issue has been fixed in 1.2 (see top post).

1.2 Changelog:

-> Correctly displays information for games that are not yet underway for NHL.
-> Use the yellow and blue buttons to view previous and future dates. Use the red button to view today's scores.
-> Fix bug in MLB part of skin where it had the team data associated with the wrong team.

Also attached here is the baseskin mod for this version. Mixman, please change as you see fit.

hey spartan, is the black area changeable? So I can remove it? Btw good job, I am not a sports fan but will add it to my Media Center G004 line up soon...

I believe so as it is just a standand "UIElements" control based on a CompositeImage.

Note that I am changing the code (& skin) at a furious pace right now. May want to wait until it settles down a bit.

Features:

-> Specify which sports to view via the config app
-> Refactored code for easy exapansion
-> Specify favorite teams (per sport) which will always be displayed on top of the list (Supports .NET regular expressions)

1.4:
-> Ticker can now popup latest scores on-screen while watching a video/program. Ticker intervals are configured via the config app, and can be enabled/disabled on-screen though the plug-in screen.
-> Fixed a bug with the refresh button where you could no longer control the plugin via the remote when it was selected.

NOTE: To enable the ticker, you MUST manually edit the config.xml file like so:

Code:

<VideoPlugin4>Sports Scores</VideoPlugin4>

Use any available number -- not necessarily #4.

This is looking very nice. I was thinking that it would be cool to be able to pull up other information this way while watching tv. Things that come to mind besides sports scores would be local traffic information, weather information, email received notification, etc. Would be cool if you could bind this to a button and have a way to cycle through the different types of information that you find interesting.

Just thinking out loud. Your plugin is coming along well!

I'm having fun with this plugin. Thanks Spartan!

Any chance of getting tennis added? Wimbledon starts next week.

Thanks.
