It really looks like your skin file is out of date / not correct because gb-pvr cannot find the CFL and Tennis special elements (which were the two most recently added). Please make sure these elements are in your skin file.

Have you copied the skin from the blue directory over to the skin directory you are using? You will need to do this everytime you take a sports scores update.

that is exactly what i did. i downloaded the new beta5, unzipped and copied the whole 'SportScore' directory to the skin\blue\ directory.

...and you use the default blue skin? If not, you need to copy ~/blue/sportsscores/skin.xml to your skin directory. The first time you load a specific plug-in this is done for you. Subsequent updates, however, require you to do this.

I'm having a problem with the ticker. Once it comes on, it won't leave the screen. I tried pushing the blue button to see that would clear it, but the show crashes (stops playing) and I get an error message. This is when watching on my MVP. I don't usually watch on the computer. I then restart the show and, thankfully, I can resume from where it crashed.

Also, if I "turn off" the ticker via the MVP it doesn't stick. The ticker keeps coming on. I then must turn it off at the PC.

Thanks for the skin updates for tennis. It looks very nice.

I'm using beta4 and the blue skin.

I have seen similar problems, but not with the ticker going away. Please post your gbpvr.exe.log and I'll have a look. What are your intervals set at? I have noticed that when you hit a button on the remote when the ticker is on (especially the back button) very strange and unpredictible things happen. I have an open thread elsewhere on this topic.

Yes, this is a known problem. I have a feeling this happens because the plugin code is in a different thread than the MVP worker thread, so the two instances of classes don't "know" about each other. At home (I have an MVP too) I enable the ticker via the PC when I want to use it and disable it on the PC when I don't. It's a lousy workaround, but all I can offer right now until I can get with sub to figure it out.

You're welcome! There are still a couple of tennis layout issues that I know of, but they seem minor at this point (like when tiebreaker points get to double digits).

Hey Spartan! Just seen the new update on wiki. This plugin is coming along well. Have you got much on the todo list?

Just wondering how you are finding the UI elements libary? Always looking to improve it, post here if you have any feedback.
