I have been looking at a way to be able to jump straight to the EPG: Timeline View and also straight to recordings from the main menu on my home screen

I have been playing around with my favourites .xml and then attaching that as a menu item within transparency but I cannot find the correct window name for either EPG TImeline or Recordings.

Does anyone know them?

Here is what I figured out from playing around with it

Code:
mypvr - TV Channels
pvrguideinfo - Programme Info
pvrrecordinginfo- Programme Info
pvrtimersetting - looks broken (maybe a skin problem)
pvrchannelmanager - Channel Manager
pvrguidesearch - Search Guide
pvrosdchannels - Doesn't do anything
pvrosdguide - Doesn't do anything

My first choice was pvrosguide for the EPG but it doesn't seem to do anything

Here is how I am creating the favourite.xml

Code:
<favourites>
    <favourite name="EPG View" thumb="someicon.jpg">ActivateWindow(pvrosdchannels)</favourite>
</favourites>

Thanks

Thanks

By doing a quick search on what you said i came across this topic http://forum.xbmc.org/archive/index.php/...05959.html
The last post in there explains why pvroschannels & pvrosguide don't do anything - there for when video is playing full screen

Here are a bunch of other codes that you posted in there

Code:
e = activate EPG = XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 31,0, 10,0)
h = activate TV = XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 32,0, 11,0)
j = activate Radio = XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 33,0, 12,0)
k = activate Recordings = XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 34,0, 13,0)
b = activate Search = XBMC.ActivateWindowAndFocus(MyPVR, 35,0, 14,0)

Cheers
