I believe custom background was a choice until beta 6 came out, But anyhow I second this request of having custom background back.

I got close to the v1 color look by setting :
<color name="primary_background">FF5FCF00</color>
<color name="secondary_background">FF5FCF00</color>
in chartreuse.xml
I imagine the same can be done for the default blue

using default blue theme, i choose type 7 looks the same as type 1 with red tinge same spots, type 2 is the only one that seems to eliminate the red tinge but not fully. latest android arm nightly.

Great user friendly skin but I'd like to echo the sentiments above about being able to add a custom background.
Also is there a way to reduce icon size so that part of a box does not drift off the screen to the right? I can understand why it's done this way (to give that ongoing list feel so you know it continues 'over the page') but it fails the wife and kids test :-)

I'm seeing the same thing on the latest nightly. 1 and 7 appear to be identical.

I like v.2 very much. Please note:
- there is a cosmetic bug in with the channel list in PVR. When you scroll the channels up, the text rolls all the way to the top of the screen and is superimposed over other text.
- I, personally, would prefer the "recently watched channels" in the PVR recordings section, to be below recent recordings. Frankly, I don't see how "recently watched channels" belongs here at all - it's the "recordings" tab.

No, it's not. It's actually the "TV" tab, not "recordings".

That's already addressed in the latest skin version

Estuary v2 is a huge step backwards... Estuaryv1 was perfect, clean fast and nice use of screen real estate. It was easy to navigate and effective.
Estuary v2 looks and feel so clumsy, the fonts are horrible with hopeless spacing, icons and homescreen layout is awful, top and bottom bars are ugly, all views are bad and favorites are cumbersome....

Sorry but i rolled back to the last version with Eastuary v1 and will stay there Smile

TV has several tabs - channel list, guide, recordings…. Recently watched channels is, in fact, incongruously in the recordings section.

Hmm, am I stupid or is Estuary always showing the OSD when playing music with visualisation?
Pressing "i" just shows/disables the cover and metadata. But the progress bar on the bottom and "now playing..." and the clock on the top always stay there.
I haven't found an option in the settings to change this behaviour.
