Basic Skin for PVRX2

[Fatman_do]

OK, I wiped out my skin2 directory and did a repair install of GBPVR then added Basic and it's working. On another system I use for testing, I did not have this problem so I guess there were some pieces of things left over.
I appreciate all the help and the kewl skin.

You're welcome for the help. MixMan is the author of this skin and he deserves all the credit on putting this skin and themes together.

I just help out with skin problems when I spot them.

From looking at the logs, it seems like the new BasicSkin2 is not intalled under the skin2 folder.
Extract the BasicSkin2 and copy the Basic directory to the GBPVR/skin2/ folder.

Perhaps I need to make some kind of installer so the skin is copied to the right place. I will write some more on the wiki and make a batch file that will copy stuff to the right folders.

PS. It was some time since I tested MusicLibrary2 plugin with the old Basic skin.

Thanks. Nice to have ContourBlue back again. Ran into a small alignment issue though.

Sorry, I use only icons and now names. I will change this to icons and names for next skin update.
You can either change the skin or a value in config.xml

There are 3 different TVguide layouts and 3 OSD Tvuide layouts
Go to the directory Skin2\Basic\TV Guide\
Rename the skin file "icon and name 7 skin.xml" to skin.xml
then you will have a skin that show icons and channel names

The value <TVGuideChannelHeaderType> in config.xml determines if icon or number and names shall be shown.

<TVGuideChannelHeaderType>

0 shows icon and name
1 shows number and name
2 shows name
3 show icon and name OR number and name

Here is a zip with the skin2/Basic/TV Guide directory
Copy the content of the zip and replace the TVguide directory
I have made 4 BAT files that will copy the skin files and replace the current skin.xml. The BAT file will also change the value in config.xml so channel number or icon is shown.
Happy testing

Hello

Any chance of a cheeky update to display the "watched" flag on the recordings screen?

Many thanks

Here is an update to the Recordings screen and some other new plugins.

Hi,

loving the Vista theme but wondered how I can change the channel logo in the tv guide so it keeps it's aspect ratio? Mine are square 100 x 100 pixels but the skin streches it horizontaly.

Thanks
