Its says to press play to save. Which key on the keyboard would be play?

CTRL-P is play on the keyboard.

Need a little more info on what you are doing.

Should this work with pvrx2.exe? I have tried it and while it works, it fails on one function. That is pressing F1 twice which should get to the guide search screen but doesn't work on this skin. Sub has looked at the logs and noted it's a skin error

Thanks

I saw that post and log. Have you tried the non wide-screen version of the skin? Or maybe just use it's TV Guide' XML as that is what the problem is.

I am just trying to get the skin plugin to change the colors and background.
I just upgraded to the latest version of GBPVR, the PVRX2 version. I downloaded the Community skin and installed it and then I downloaded and installed the skin plugin. I make the changes in the skin plugin menu and the little box comes up saying the changes are being applied. But then when I check out either my tv screen or computer screen the changes have not been made. I am using the PVRX2 releases for both the community skin and the skin plugin.

Can you post the skin plugin log? The "please wait changes are being applied" box will say where it is located.

Are the things like the current temperature and what is playing, ie from the music library, supposed to show up on the main screen as it did before? Is there a setting that needs to be changed?

McBainUK · 2007-09-12, 12:27 PM

These things rely on the 'panels' feature, which hasn't been ported over to PVRX2 from GB-PVR yet.

McBain UK what is the file name of the log? The "please wait changes are being applied" doesn't tell me where its located.

McBainUK · 2007-09-12, 01:09 PM

By memory I think it's: gbpvr/plugins/SkinPlugin/SkinPluginHelper.exe.log

Can you post a screenshot of the "please wait...", I want to check you have the latest version-it SHOULDN'T look like this: [Image: SkinPluginPreview3.jpg]
