I have a question for you skinners. Is it possible to show the poster for the selected shoe in the EPG? The EPG shows the show name and plot for whatever is selected and I would like to display the corresponding poster next top it. $INFO[ListItem.Art(poster)] doesn't seem to work.

If you read back through this thread (I know it's a lot of pages ) I mentioned on several occasions that I would love to be able to control that information. Personally, I really love how WMC handles the Guide. If I knew more about Python I would change this, but unfortunately I do not. Ideally I would like to be able to change what shows up when a show/movie is selected. Even the plot and name don't look all that good, but that is part of the code as well. I'd like to see poster or fanart then title and plot with the addition of airdate for TV shows.

thanks muchly darkonaut that info was enough for me to find it and change it, once i'd worked out the rgb thing. look forward to trying out your new skin, thanks so much for sharing all your hard work

Too bad I didn't post my respond earlier... sorry bro could have saved you a little time I suppose.

Hey thedarkonaut are you still working on your other skin as well? Would love to have those weather icons on my psuedoTV

Yep, both are going to use basically the same code base. My thinking was to create a good layout for the skin, that can be interchanged with different backgrounds. Going to publish both versions here fairly shortly.

@ thedarknonaut' do you know what I have to change in the skin to be able to have the name of my channels instead of my custom logo's (my logo's don't look good with your skin, but I'd rather sacrafice my logo's)

The file you are looking for is in C:\Users\'Yourusername'\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\XBMC-PseudoTV-stable-pre\resources\skins\default\720p and is called script.pseudotv.EPG

Open it with Wordpad or whatever editor you want to use and look for the channel section (most likely at the bottom) you will see three different sections for each channel (name, icon, number). I'm assuming Dark only removed the textcolor for the channel names. Here is an example of what you want to do.

<description>Channel 1 Name</description>
<posx>150</posx>
<posy>190</posy>
<width>200</width>
<height>42</height>
<label>Channel</label>
<font>font13</font>
<align>left</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<textcolor></textcolor> <------- change this to <textcolor>FFFFFFFF</textcolor>
</control>

<control type="label" id="311">
<description>Channel 1 Number</description>
<posx>98</posx>
<posy>190</posy>
<width>40</width>
<height>42</height>
<label>1</label>
<font>font13</font>
<align>right</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<textcolor>$VAR[TitleColorVar]</textcolor>
</control>

<control type="image" id="321">
<description>Channel 1 Icon</description>
<posx>150</posx>
<posy>175</posy> <------------ Change this to something like 1200 so it puts it off the screen
<width>131</width>
<height>69</height>
<texture>Icon</texture>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<alignx>center</alignx>
<aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
<colordiffuse></colordiffuse>
</control>
