In my efforts to make using Kodi easier for my family, I'd like to change the text and icon for "Switch" to "Watch". I'd also like to change "Add timer" to "Record Series". These are on the program details screen - main menu > TV > Guide > select a program. How would I go about about that?

As Karellen implies, this is something down to Kodi and skins, rather than anything the NextPVR addon can control.

I'll move the entire thread to the Estuary sub-forum for you. No need to create a new one.

I thought about this too when I was translating Estuary.
The word "watch" doesn't make much sense if you're browsing programs that will be airing in the future. For programs that are currently airing "watch" would be good.
Maybe the label could change dynamically depending on the status of the program.
The "add timer" does exactly what the name says and not all programs are tv series.

Thanks for moving the thread.
Since the "Switch" button is used for both TV and radio, perhaps "Tune In" would be more appropriate.
Those are fair points about "Add Timer" but I would still like to be able to change it on my end, if possible. When I think of a timer, I think of a clock counting down, not scheduling a recording. Maybe something like "Repeat Recording" or "Schedule Recordings" or "Advanced Recording" or "Recording Options", which are more generic than "Record Series" but still imply recording multiple events.

“add timer” confused me too when I first got into kodi I thought that it was a timer to automatically switch to that channel when it was on because my previous TV had that ability. Something like “add recording” of just “record” would be better.
