TV GUIDE - Show Logos - Help

[vskatusa]

Hi,

I have followed the twiki on the subject but yet the logs do not show up in the TV GUIDE. Is there any another changes I need to do on some xml file for these logo's to show?

BTW, I am using the latest version of GBPVR with "community skin"

I saw a post to make the following change and now the channel number shows up but not the logo (the number has been changed from "3" to "0")!

<TVGuideChannelHeaderType>0</TVGuideChannelHeaderType>

You have to supply your own logo files. Have you downloaded your logos into the 'ChannelLogos' directory?

We are going to need a bit more info than that. Your logo names need to match the Channel name in the database. For instance, I have "8 WNDU", so my logo is "8 WNDU.jpg"

I have used the "channellogotool" - here is the screen shot:

This is really wierd!

The following "naming convention" works!

However, this "does not work" - per standards

"200 CNN.gif"

Am I missing something here!

If you view the "Channels" tab in config, they need to be saved the same as the "Channel Name" column with the file extention added. Some people have the channel number as part of the channel name, in which case the above naming convention applies.

That needs to be clarified on the wiki..

I'll see what I can do.

I would also add the following in the wiki....

Make sure the config.xml has the following entry:

<TVGuideChannelHeaderType>0</TVGuideChannelHeaderType>

Another question...

How do I change the background color of the TV GUIDE. I want to make it WHITE so that the LOGO's look better!

Open the skin.xml file in the TVGuide folder under the skin you are using.

I would suggest editing this line:

Code:

<TextStyle name="ListingStyle" color="[color=Red][B]White[/B][/color]" size="11"/>

to color="Black"

If you are using blue, change this line:

Code:

<CompositeImage name="ChannelHeaderItem" size="20.5,9.0">
     <DrawRect loc="0,3" size="100,95" fillColor="[B][color=Red]Black[/color][/B]"/>

to

Code:

<CompositeImage name="ChannelHeaderItem" size="20.5,9.0">
     <DrawRect loc="0,3" size="100,95" fillColor="[color=Red][B]White[/B][/color]"/>

In the CommunitySkin,
Change this:

Code:

<CompositeImage name="ChannelHeaderItem" size="16,9">
    [color=Red][B]<DrawCommonImage name="TextBackground"/>[/B][/color]

to this:

Code:

<CompositeImage name="ChannelHeaderItem" size="16,9">
    [color=Red][B]<DrawRect loc="0,0" size="100,100" fillColor="White[/B][/color]"/>
