FR:
1. Please add

xml:
<shadowcolor>text_shadow</shadowcolor>

to all label-controls which have

xml:
<texture colordiffuse="$VAR[GradientColorVar]">lists/focus-gradient.png</texture>

as BG. Then they are much easier to read, e.g. in MyPVRRecordings, MyPVRSearch etc. I looked especially for PVR.xmls but maybe there are some others

2. If you want to change the color and "SH ColorPicker" is not installed, then open a window, where the user can choose to install it. Some may miss it and wonder why they can't change the color

3. add Option to choose the shadow color of the text. On my TV the font is much easier to read, if you change "text_shadow" to "ff000000" (black)

 1-3. No, no shadow for lists and not possibility to change his color who does not look like me very useful.

2. List of necessary addons are in first page and in skin settings too. There is a popup when addons are not installed, I can't do more for that.   

1. Maybe you missunderstood something in 1. and 3. Let me try to explain this better.
In almost all label-controls in PVR*.xmls is

xml:
<shadowcolor>text_shadow</shadowcolor>

missing. The shadowcolor-tag is there for textlabels in all the other xmls. Please add this to the PVR-xmls also
Please compare:
View_50_List.xmlMyPVRRecordings.xml
I see no difference, why there shouldn't be a textshadow in PVRwindows

3. If I change the "text_shadow"-variable in "colors -> default.xml" to "ff000000" (black), then the text is IMHO better to read. That's why I asked to add this option. I have no problem, if I have to add another xml with default-colors and only the textshadow-variable is changed. Just thought, some users find it useful also

2. "ColorPicker" is displayed as an optional addon in Estuary -> SkinSettings. If ColorPicker is not installed, then IMHO the ColorPicker-button should be greyed out in Settings. The same for "SkinBackup" with SH-Backup-Plugin. 

I understand what you mean now, I have added missing shadow for PVR. Try if it's ok on last git.
