New Skin: Contour

[nemulate]

It should do by default! Go into live tv the press info or dvd menu. If not working for you are you using vmr9?

Scratch that last post, i figured it out, the only problem is that when i move ti different selections on the menu or TV guide, the preview flickers, and i get a quick flash of the would be Task pane, or GBPVR logo in the places where these items have been replaced with the video. Is this just me having this problem?

[Torque]

Hmm, I'm not seeing that. I'm using the basic VMR9, not that new custom render option. Is that what you're using?

[ejeffers]

No, I'm usiing the new Custom Renderer, but I'm at work right now, so I'll have to try it whne i get home, but that sounds like the logical explination.

[ejeffers]

Yep, Your right. It is the Custom Renderer Causing this Problem. I really need that renderer, so I'll just wait it out, and its not bad, just a little annoying.

Typical, just after i'd skinned the uk cinema listings plug-in, an update arrives. Here's a skin update for the plug-in for ContourHC

I'm a HUGE fan of the Contour HC skin, in my opinion it is the most polished and professional looking skin available for GBPVR. Thanks to Torque and various others that helped to make this such an awesome skin.

As of release 96.08, the video library now includes a "Transcode" button. Since the ContourHC skin available on the wiki doesn't yet incorporate the transcode funtionality, but the default blue skin does, I did a little cutting, pasting, and editing to get this feature to work under the Contour skin.

If you'd like to enable the transcode button, just replace the skin.xml file in the ...skins\CountourHC\Video Library\ directory with the attached skin.xml (rename from skin.xml.txt).

It worked fine for me when I tried a small mpg transcode, but it'd be great if others posted if it works for them.

I just tried this one, and I'm missing some artwork (on my plain untouched install on my test-machine).

I am missing the following PNG-files:
button_next, button_previous and video_info_background.

I have (for now) just copied some other ContourHC resources over, but I thought I'd let you know...

They are probably in the musiclibrary2 skin for bluemce2 which is where I started from
