TV Listings - Support Thread

[alibert]

Hi,

Looking forward to installing the update but can I suggest that you change the name of the download to reflect the version number? I always save previous versions of stuff in case I need to downgrade for some reason and the original file is no longer available, and I almost overwrote my backup file.

well, I think that I'll stick with the way I've been doing it - of course you're able to rename and backup the .zip files yourself.

Also does this version allow the channel icon and number in separate columns? When I suggested this you mentioned it would be fairly easy to include in an upcoming version and I was wondering if it made it into htis one.

yes it does - that's why the composite image for channel logos has been introduced.

Here's an example screenshot:



And here is the used skin file for the image: skin.xml

the skin link you have can not be copied and i was thinking this is the corrected skin for the record screen because the text was too big for the screen, and the channel number before the logos could not show up once i installed it.

Huh? I copied it fine just now - right click and "Save target as..." But for the sake of argument I've zipped it up and attached to this post...

Looks great Alibert, thanks for adding this feature! BTW, I hope you don't think I was being critical about the file name - I do realize that I can (and did) rename the file. I'm grateful for your work no matter what you name it!!

Thanks again for this great replacement for the core TV Lister, it's abnother one of those things I show to people that makes them want to setup GBPVR themselves.

Hi,

the skin link you have can not be copied

what do you mean by "can't be copied"? You can download the file by clicking the link with the right mouse button, then choose "save target" from the context menu.

and i was thinking this is the corrected skin for the record screen because the text was too big for the screen,

sorry, I'm not sure what you mean - what is wrong and what should be corrected? Are you talking about the default "Blue" skin that is shipped in the plugin's zip-archive?

and the channel number before the logos could not show up once i installed it.

in order to see the channel numbers with the skin file above, you need the latest release of the plugin. You can download it at the wiki.

Opps i pushed that button too fast, am working remotely to my PC so thats might be why i was having issue copying the skin. All complaint earlier was resolved except for the POP up screen once you click on a show in the guide, the screen stretches across the screen, for me to see the Watch, Find more, and Remind i have to scroll to the right screen for me to see this options. i know the skin needs tweaking but i just don't know which part of the skin to correct this. am having a had time attaching the screen shot.... but hope the you will understand my explanation..

Hi,

the new release 0.9 of the plugin is not backward compatible to previous skin files. I would recommend to switch to the default blue skin that is also included in the .zip package of the plugin, until your favourite skin supports the v0.9 of the tv listings plugin.
