epg layout

My guide is working fine, but having added the channel icons they overlap with the channel names. Searching the posts reveals I could edit the guide.xml but I cannot locate the line(s) where to do this. Any ideas?

The skins for NextPVR.exe and UI clients are in C:\Program Files\NextPVR\data\skin\Default\ so it is in the TV Guide folder there.

Depending on the client (you didn't actually mention which) you can also disable the text since it hard to completely avoid the problem.

Thanks, sorry the client is the windows desktop app, I can find the skin configs and was looking at the guide.xml, my problem is what to edit within this file, which I assume is the right one.

I don't help with skinning but there are @number @name and @icon in there which to me are pretty self explanatory and based on this it sure looks like want to try and shrink the text or use a smaller font in this.

<Text text="@name" visible="@hasChannelIcon" location="46,0" size="52,100" font="DefaultMinimum" align="Right" valign="Center"/>

Remember to save the original and backup changes they will get overwritten on updates.

Thanks Martin, I tried various combinations but they did not work, font reduction would seem the best bet but "DEFAULT MINIMUM" would seem to be the smallest, so no joy there.

Maybe post a screenshot of what you’re seeing and an example channel logo png.
