Hi,

I've just started using XBMC PVR features, and I have a request concerning the EPG timeline view.

At the bottom of the screen is a key showing colours corresponding to genres. Would it be possible to have an option to use this space to display the description for the highlighted show?

The only skin I can find that currently does this is Slik PVR version, but it's nowhere near as good as Transparency.

Also, with TV enabled, when starting XBMC I'm getting a big box across the middle of the screen saying 'PVR Manager is starting up', which isn't really ideal. Any chance this could be made smaller, or the notification moved elsewhere?


Great work on the skin, I've been using it for ages now, and nothing else comes close.

i'd say that's a very good idea :-)
personally, i never look at the genre legend anyway

yeah, that annoyed me as well. i changed it some weeks ago in the Transparency! svn repo.

Great. I'm currently running Windows Eden-pvr update 8 (build 95) from Opdenkamp. Can I use a recent svn build with this, or will I break things?

it'll break a few things.
T! svn is most of the time only compatible with very recent nightly builds.
