Northpole, Can you take a look at the menu in the top left corner of the Recordings screen - accessed using a mouse. Selecting any of the items appears to give an error. I think they are new.

XJW,

Sorry about the delay... was on vacation.

Posted an update v0.93 that adds the manual recording popup.

Just tried 0.95. Some items in the main menu are now truncated. eg "Recordin". Probably a 4:3 issue. Did the font size increase ?

I always thought the vertical scrolling main menu was the best. It allows for longer menu names and you cwn see more items in the menu which makes navigation easier. NextBlue (with all its benefits) + a vertical scrolling main menu would be the perfect skin for me !

The number of channels in the TV Guide has been reduced - misery Sad

I did increase the font on the main menu to 21 point. To fix it, You can edit the global.xml file and find this line under fonts

<Font name="WhiteLarge" color="White" size="21" typeFace="Arial Narrow" style="Regular"/>

Changing it to 20 or smaller will decrease the main menu font.

<Font name="WhiteLarge" color="White" size="20" typeFace="Arial Narrow" style="Regular"/>
