Looking for a STB like theme - paul92 - 2021-10-13

Hi all...

First of all. I'm out looking for any fancy theme. All I am looking for is a theme that mimics the appearance of a real STB. 

I love the Sky IQ Interface, and have seem many spin-offs for third party stbs, and would love if that was somehow migrated to Kodi. I don't really use Kodi for movies, or music, simply for live TV, if that add on or skin had to disable everything except live TV, PVR functions, and TV Guide, it wouldn't really bother me. 

I would expect the skin to give me what is offered with a STB. Picture in picture, detailed TV Guide etc. What I'm not looking for is how to create my own STB like environment from movies, and series that I have on my HDD. 

All I am trying to do is to have skin that emulates the interface of a commercial STB box, which will be used for live TV, and playing recordings, and viewing the TV guide Nothing more, or nothing less, a rather simple yet complex request. 

Thanks

STB = set top box .. ? And not some other transmitted something?

That's not likely to happen, as in the past the Sky company has already submitted multiple take-down requests on Kodi skins looking "too familiar" to the Sky box environment.

Would expect that. Anything similar, but not the sky theme?
