fTV Fred Edition - with full working and integrated LiveTV part - sualfred - 2015-12-21

fTV skin modification with full working and integrated LiveTV part

A lot of you were begging Hitcher to implement LiveTV to his awesome fTV skin. So... I had a few hours left to take care of it Wink

Please also note that a lot ot is handled and displayed differently compared to the original skin (personal preference).

___________________________________

Important:
  • Not compatible to Hitcher's official repo version, sorry.
  • The skin has its own skin ID. So you can keep both, Hitchers fTV and my mod. Just take care of different skin folder names.
  • I did not take care of PVR based radio. Hello? We are in 2015. Use the internet radio addons Wink

It's just for sharing. No other mods will be done.

Important:
- Made for Jarvis (Kodi 16)
- Not compatible to Hitcher's official repo version, sorry
- I did not take care of PVR based radio. Hello? We are in 2015. Use the internet radio addons Wink

Wow, looks great!
Something jumped out at me in your "disclaimer", you mentioned Hitcher's official repo. I didn't realize Hitcher has a repo that would auto update his add-ons including ftv. This whole time I've been downloading the different versions of the ftv skin manually, I had no idea there was a repo.


RE: fTV with full working and integrated LiveTV part - Hitcher - 2015-12-22

There isn't a Kodi repo; just my GitHub one. Wink

Reworked the channel OSD. This fits better.

Nice Skins. I like the ftv-Skin, but i needed the PVR. So your skin is the solution Smile

I will test the Skin tomorrow.

Download for the Channel-Logos would be nice Wink Smile


RE: fTV with full working and integrated LiveTV part - sualfred - 2015-12-22

As promised, the channel logos:

Hey, this looks really sharp!

Tell me, would you have any interest in helping me create a similar LiveTV section for my DroidTV skin?


RE: fTV with full working and integrated LiveTV part - sualfred - 2015-12-22

Sorry, I still did not updated my BelloFredo skin to Jarvis and the birth of my baby is estimated in 6 weeks. Don't really have time for bigger projects atm

Why you don't use the newest version of Hitchers fTV?


RE: fTV with full working and integrated LiveTV part - sualfred - 2015-12-25

It's based on his latest version . or respectively all changes were merged?
