I love the magic skins and the night skin is my favourite. However, it does not show 'next' on the boquet/channel listings whereas the others do.

Any ideas of how to enable this or could it maybe added in the future? I find it the easiest to read with the dark blue background but really 'next'!

Thanks in advance

I did not adapt that change into magic HD night, cause for the moment I like the channelist the way it is.


Of course one can edit skin.xml and make the channel list the way you like, but you have to rename the skin also, so it is't overwritten when updating Vix.
But i will consider it to change it..

Thanks for the reply.

Maybe if it just had Next: NAME, without the description, to avoid messing up the layout, some of the other skins are like this.

I will have a look at editing it, i am not very good at these things though!

At the moment I am looking at it.

Point is when adding this, one has to take space from other items.
So i can put it just below the channlelist like in magic HD or on the left bottom.
In case of putting it in left bottom i have to cut off event description, so one get less info in that case(like Vix HD)


I will test this for myself first to see I like the layout, otherwise i leave it like it is.

Update..i will add like you propose only next and name in left bottom.

That will look the best ..I will post a screenshot when ready..

Hi ya Delagroov,

Is it difficult to just add 'next' to a skin? how did you edit it?

Thanks

I had look at other skins and looked for the widget.
One has to change positions and size from the screen ChannelSelection, you take the space from and insert the NEXT widget in it with the right size and postions.



<eLabel text="Next:" position="5,640" size="70,25" zPosition="2" font="Regular;22" foregroundColor="white" valign="center" transparent="1" />
<widget source="ServiceEvent" render="Label" position="80,640" size="425,25" font="Regular;22" foregroundColor="secondFG" noWrap="1" zPosition="2" transparent="1" halign="left">
<convert type="EventName">NextName</convert>
</widget>

To change/edit skin.xml you need a programm like notepad++

Sorry to bring up an old thread but it this skin still under development. Just noticed on the info bar egp when you press the right or left on the remote the picicon disappears from the info bar. Works fine with magic HD but not night or noire when moving right or left. Also there is no option to add channel number. It just looks different compared to when you press OK. Channel number and picicon are both OK.

Thanks for getting back so quick and fixing it. Yes that is exactly what I was talking about. I prefer the sleek look and it works more like the sky info bar. Great skin best one out there. Looks very professional. Even better than sky.

With next update it will be automatic updateded.

If you cant wait you can download it from github,

https://github.com/OpenViX/vix-skins/commit/3247e0cdd5fb4447bf66de884b573b17fc70b622
by saving the file(rightclick on view file/selct raw and save it)
Ftp it to MHDC folder and E2 restart...

Btw I had to undo the channel number in QuickEpg, because otherwise the channel wouldn't change when zapping.
