I am doing the exact same steps but trying to name the channel Little House on the Prairie. I type the full name and click on Done and the name is truncated to "Little House on th" on the Set Channel Name screen. That's before I ever hit backspace or anything. Immediately after I click done on the keyboard.

I have no control of the textbox... BTW, It doesn't need to be opened to enter text, it's active the second its highlighted...

I didn't realize that it didn;t need to be opened. Noted.

My apologies. I guess I do need to brush up on PTVL rules. That also explains the couple stations whose logos weren't appearing as the shows had long names. What makes this hard to realize is that PTVL will show the full naae in the EPG even if it's over 18 characters. It is only in the custom name editor where you see it get truncated. If you never try to give it a custom name and don;t know about the 18 character limit, then a user will never understand why their channel logo isn't showing.

But there is still truly a bug. When you set a custom channel name, PTVL always includes a leading space that you can't see but is present in the settings2.xml.

Not really. I'm a donor (and I don't for a second regret donating) but due to various hosting issues I've never been able to get the donor icons. I've been making use of an increasingly showing its age logo collection from the old Milkman collection, but the missing logos there have me looking at no-frills skins to get some kind of consistency in look and feel. Will be testing the new Sky skin for precisely that reason soon.

I'm certain I'm not the only one who is a donor and is unable to access the logos, so telling people to donate for access or implying that by donating access will be granted is a bit misleading. Sure, eventually everyone who donated will eventually get access -- but those seeking a specific look in their skins are going to have to wait a while. We're all going to have to be patient.

I haven't had a chance to test out the plugins you are having problems with... when I get a chance i'll add support.

I read them. None of them mentions anything regarding asking for availability of a feature or commenting on a feature request, so I don't understand why I don't get any answers.

I had to make a habbit of creating the channel in app, then editing the sys2 file w notepad++ to make sure the channel name was what I wanted. all in all not more work but for me consistant with succesful loadings of channels and logos. Logos, Ive made mostly custome ones to add to the milkpack as I make wierd channels for myself.

all in all Im very happy with the amount Im able to do know.... its now just a matter of taking my ransome note of a sys2 file and rebuilding it more cleanly.

The only glitch im having is NOT BEING ABLE TO GET BACKGROUND LOADING TO STICK TO OFF ive editied the sys file notepad++, cleared cache pulled hair out and smashed a keyboard in frustration.... but ill figure it out

Thanks again on the great app. and thanks Luna for releasing the extra channel lists, they helped me figure out several problems I was having with some channel creation

For all chtypes? Can you give me repeatable steps to see space?
