Working with PVR channel groups
#1
Hi,  

Some of you may know I'm working on a skyQ based skin, its coming along nicely however, im having real problems working with the PVR live TV channel groups

I use the Simple IPTV plugin which uses the standard default channel guide which is part of Kodi
What I want is to be able to show the channel groups either in a menu or along the top of the TV guide and have them selectable 

At the moment the only way I can change groups is to activate the left side panel (9000) and change the channel group from there.

My skin is based on the estuary as a base

if anyone can point me in the direction of a skin that does this already so I can 'borrow' the code or can provide some guidance, that would be great.

Here are some examples of what im after being able to do, (taken from the real Sky TV guide, both old and new)

The design of my skin lends itself more to this view below

skin.estuary use fixed list to change PVR Group in epg view.(must be id="11")

Add this on top of your EpgGrid, set your navigation to this Id.
This work only with Leia version.....For older version button with id="20" open select menu-You already use this function.....
sugestion - move to Leia Smile

Thanks for the info "Angelinas" 

At the moment, i use AppleTV4 with Kodi and tihs is only running 17.6 - no plans to migrate the Leia version of Kodi to this platform as of yet so im stuck with 17.6

I'll keep digging, sure their must be a way to do this in 17.

Thanks though for your help Smile
