Problem with skinplugin

[Fatman_do]

Also, check the GB-PVR config utility and make sure it is listed there under plugins (it should).

Do you see it on the list of plugins in the config app? If so is it enabled?

If not, start PVRX2 and then post the log file (PVRX2.exe.log), this will say what plugins it tried to load and why any failed.

I do not see it listed on the plugins tab of the config app. I attached the log file.

The log file shows no errors. What is the contents of the folder gbpvr\plugins\ ?

[Dave_M]

there is the SkinPlugin folder and SkinPluginConfig.xml. it seems to have installed somthing at least.

[Fatman_do]

Ok, firstly, install the SkinPlugin. Second, install the latest CommunitySkin (It contains updates to the SkinPlugin).

You should see several folders under the Plugins\SkinPlugin\ folder as well.

Run the Config.exe and post the Config.exe.log.

I'll blow away everything on my pvr and try a fresh install just to make sure everything is working ok.

It appears the skinplugin.dll isn't found.???

[Fatman_do]

I cleaned out my plugins and skins on my HTPC and everything appears to be installing and working as far as the skinplugin is concerned.

Given that, I think your bug has to be something we are missing in your process. Hang in there, we'll get to the bottom of this......

The dll file is be called Skinplugin3.dll and be installed to the "..\devnz\gbpvr\Plugins\SkinPlugin\" folder.

You should have a file called "SkinPlugin_install.log" in the "..\devnz\gbpvr\Plugins\SkinPlugin\" folder. That should tell me about how your install went. Also, you would need to post your "PVRX2.exe.log" file after reproducing your error.

The majority of the fonts are controlled in a file called "baseskin.xml" located in "..\devnz\gbpvr\Skin2\Community3\". If you are running older plugins, you may also need to edit the same file in "..\devnz\gbpvr\Skin\Community3\"

You can edit these files in notepad, and you will see a section in those files called "TextStyles" with the style names and sizes.

That is not a "bold" request at all...

Click CommunitySkin in my signature, on the CommunitySkin wiki page, it is listed under the pvrx2 section.
