I won't touch the look and feel of the widgets anymore. They are exactly how I want them and I tried landscape in the past and didn't like it.

And I still don't get what you mean with overlay and with which behaviour

[blutstein]

Look at the bg_vignette.png at your media-folder in your texture.xbt. its a transparent overlay above the fanarts (to darken the edges of the screen in case of th bg_vignette.)
i need exactly the same implementation, but only customizable for each menu-item.

if you dont get it now, i will pn you in good ol' bayrisch

did you read my edit in my last post?

[sualfred]

Feel free to post screens. I will take a look at them.
Adding a custom user set overlay isn't possible, because I only can set thumbs and backgrounds with the menu script

Meeeh
If somebody has any LiveTV part requests, please post it now. Our new flat only has only DVB-C and I cannot use my good old Digital Devices CineS2 DVB-S tuner card anymore. Since we have other costs, I won't purchase a DVB-C tuner. My girl would kill me if I'll spend money for this instead for other more importent things

If you managed to convince here, this one is cheap and good . It works great for me on Windows 8.1:

They also provide driver updates here:

Thx, but I never was a big fan of external devices for such things. If I'm able to convice her, it will be a PCIe. If... I'm able to

The only thing I would like to see in LiveTV is what's next on the fullscreen info. Something like this:

[sualfred]

Already there. The field with "Genre: Series" is a fade label and will fade to the this after a while (if the EPG contains that information)

[ray2301]

hmh...here it just stays on "Genre: Series" although the EPG contains the next item.

[sualfred]

Nope, see:

PHP Code:

<control type="fadelabel" id="1">
                        <left>0</left>
                        <top>90</top>
                        <width>420</width>
                        <height>45</height>
                        <font>FontSize_20</font>
                        <align>left</align>
                        <aligny>center</aligny>
                        <textcolor>99white</textcolor>
                        <shadowcolor>55000000</shadowcolor>                        
                        <label>$INFO[VideoPlayer.Genre,[COLOR=white]$LOCALIZE[515]:[/COLOR] ]</label>
                        <label>$INFO[VideoPlayer.ChannelGroup,[COLOR=white]$LOCALIZE[31033]:[/COLOR] ]</label>
                        <label>$INFO[VideoPlayer.NextTitle,[COLOR=white]$LOCALIZE[19031]:[/COLOR] ,]$INFO[VideoPlayer.NextStartTime, (,)]</label>
                        <scroll>false</scroll>
                        <scrollout>false</scrollout>
                        <scrollspeed>100</scrollspeed>
                        <pauseatend>5000</pauseatend>
                    </control>

I'm using PVR IPTV Simple client, maybe it has something to do with that...because I don't get "Channel group" and I don't get "Next". It just stays on "Genre". I don't even know which .xml I should look at and maybe add your code to it...

[ray2301]

OK, I installed the last version from the GitHub and now it's ok Before that I tried to check for updates from the repo but I didn't get any so I thought there were none.

[sualfred]

That fadelabel is untouched since weeks So I guess it was just a temporary local problem of your Kodi installation. Again: A skin isn't responsible for info labels, which are filled by Kodi. It's just a GUI.

[ricardosunnie]

An option to show the plot on the pvr info screen would be great!

You mean on the OSD panel in the fullscreen video? Aye! That's missing. Will be added in the same way the plot is shown for movies/videos etc.

Edit:
Wait. Already available if the button controls are visible. Just press down
