I have done a simple mod to a already beautiful skin. This is my first attempt making changes to a skin. Luckily there is a great wiki for skinning.

The installation process is very simple only one file needs to be replaced. First step is to backup ViewLiveTV.xml file that is located in your home folder XMBC/Addons/skin.aeonmq5/720p and then replace it with the download file

Hopefully you like it and hopefully the developer will take this on board and make it even better looking than I have managed.


Big thank you to @Maniac as he gave me a great hint

Fixes:
If there is a recording in progress and it had a timer they would have been on top of each other so that is fixed.

Increased the size of the timer indicator image slightly and gave it a red look still not the best it's still hard to see.

Nice job but in the EPG timeline view, is it possible to have the channel number displayed?

Hey man, where did you get those channel icons from? I have similar ones, but with black backgrounds, but i like yours better

Hi,

I actually nearly got all the logos from wikipedia but during the search for something else I came accross this website https://ash.ms/projects/channels/plain-a...n-tv-logos I only got few from there just wished I discoverd it sooner than I used inkscape just selected the logo and then file export bitmap to png https://ash.ms/projects/channels/plain-a...n-tv-logos.

It was stinking hot in Perth it was even too hot to go for a swim so I thought I will make few changes to the great skin.

Looks good but you forgot Radio channel, EPG Next, EPG Now logo's

Edit:
Fixed most of it.

I did use different width en posx etc because i didn't liked the space between icon and channel names, certainly not with long channel names.

For Dutch users this is a good place to get your logos http://mp-dutch-rtv-logos.googlecode.com...unk/logos/

Absolutely gorgeous! You've made the EPG shine! This should be brought into the main skin!
Kudos

Nice Mod! but is it possible to automatically populate the logos from the backend? I am using serverWMC, and some skins will pull the logos that I have from my WMC setup, which I imported using mychannellogos2. Can this only be done with this mod if i import them manually?

[denz]

I am actually not sure. Try the default confluence skin and if the logos show up there I think with this mod they should show up as well.

If not then what you can do is in XBMC Live Tv settings try to link to mychannelllogos2 logo folder I think it is in program data and if the png files have the same channel name as what XBMC is displaying than it should work otherwise you will have to do some renaming.

I have stored all channel logos on a usb drive that is connected to a router and no device has issues with it android, win, pi.
