Any chance of providing the blueHD logo as a spinner? I tried making one but it looked awful so I ended up using a static logo instead.

Love this skin, by far the best one out there. Appreciate all the work put in by Rossi and Simonsez. I must say I agree with the above though, the only way I feel it could be improved is to add the Timeline bar, I do miss that from the other skins.

Have just removed v2 and went to feeds and there not a blue-hd to be seen.

there should be a blue-hd skin for sure in the feeds which will be V2 atm, i have installed from the feeds myself. you need to install this so then it picks up the future updates.


in the skins section in the feeds its near the top.

rossi2000
27-04-14, 00:28
when helios build 11 is online.

im not sure how to make the ipk so it will pick up future updates as the skin is provided through feeds now.

if build 11 isnt here by tomorrow, i'll sort something out.

since the skin was put in the feeds alot more work has been done to it, so you'll be getting the most upto date version.


we have been busy adding some nice bits.

Nice work guys, still not sure why ye include the media bar buttons? that do nothing in EPG, channel list & filelist mode though?

Rahat786786
27-04-14, 01:59
I agree with judge. Although it looks nice it just takes up space for instance in the channel list where the video display of the channel could be bigger and the font bigger for channel listing if the button graphics are not there.

Yes, it's a good skin & uses good graphics, that button bar annoys me as it can't be used...
Better to use that location for real info IMO.
No need to mimic an E2 box to look like a SKY box, use it to show SKY users what they're missing...

SKY has the best user experience of any box out there in my opinion, and this skin aims to mirror that on a notoriously complicated box for beginners who are used to sky. The bar at the top completes the skin in my opinion, what GUI doesn't have bits that are only there for effect? I think the skin is great and I certainly would not remove the bar at the top, it makes it perfect! :)

Of course it is,my reasoning was that sky has amazing series link and planner features, EPG that auto-updates silently, less glitches etc. However that's beside the point, it may be a "dead" graphic but the skin aims to mimic sky, and without that graphic it wouldn't look right. removing it wouldn't save much room anyway as the mini TV would still block more channels being added etc.

simonsez
27-04-14, 02:57
Nothing like a healthy debate haha...

Go faster stripes on cars have no function apart from looking good.

My personal opionin is yer thy don't have a function currently, but it keeps in the style of what we wanted and keeps the mrs happy too that it looks like what she knows. And that's priceless haha

Enjoy guys

SKY & Rupert also have millions of $$$ to limit user choices. ViX & skinners not so lucky... but better off.

don't misinterpret what I said as complaining lol ViX is fantastic It's the reason why I got an expensive vu box over a cheap dual tuner clone!
I'm just saying that for whatever reason sky does have a very user-friendly and feature rich box (for people that just want to watch TV) and this amazing skin tries to mirror that, which is why I think the image whilst functionally useless is neeed:)

Removing it would give the channel list screen as much space as the Vix Night screen which has a larger video display and even room to show what is showing Now and Next for a program with descriptions. Yes it does make it look nice but I think that the channel list screen is the one that would benefit most if it were excluded from it

User friendly = working buttons. A skin that has useless graphics to display non working buttons will never be user friendly.

You are missing the point mate, this skin is made to mimic sky, down to finer details which it does do whether or not vix has the functionality for a menu at the top or not. If you removed that "useless" graphic the skin wouldn't look as good and people would miss it. By your logic you wouldn't include any graphic that doesn't do something - what sort of UX would that be? This skin (in my opinion) is light years ahead of the default theme on ViX or vix night because it includes graphics that make my box look more like sky.

Nah, think you're missing the point, (mate). Skins that are made to mimic SKY but limit E2 functionality aren't the best of ideas on E2 boxes.

I know I keep rambling on about the channel list screen lol but it is perhaps the screen my family uses the most. The graphic you say is to make the interface user friendly but all it does is make the text smaller and so has the opposite effect as you end up with a smaller video display, less program description information and perhaps squinting at the text if you are sat a reasonable distance away.

That's the issue, I use the mini TV not the channel only screen, so it wouldn't (and doesn't ) affect me, but I can see where you're coming from I wonder if it would be easy to edit? I've made a few tweaks myself, but not to any xml files

Thanks Judge, we are aware of that, we have a few ideas we are working on to potentially resolve it. Also more work to be done if we can access the screens after the menus. so we can brand in everything in together and offer a better ondemand interface. We want the scrollers to match colour wise too, another thing thats being worked on. We are both pretty happy with the way its going so far and wanted it share it now

Updating from Build 010 to 011 when it is built is just a simple online update job, you wont loose any settings at all, in fact the image will even make a full settings backup as part of the online update process, just in the eventuality something does go wrong so you can restore it.

please read:-

if you have installed the skin from the feeds when you installed helios, you will get the update.

if you installed the blue-hd v2 ipk when you installed helios you will need to remove this from "remove plugins" and then install the blue-hd skin from the feeds.

Hi, I've just installed the latest version3 (upgraded from fraggle's) and its a million times better and looks much more professionally done. I have noticed a slight issue on the screen that shows the list of recorded programs. (using helios v010). It looks quite squashed between recording titles and also the date\time on the right seems to be cut off. Is this something you're aware of?

simonsez

May depend on how many rows you have. Mayde lower the amount of rows, see if that helps. Thanks

Press EPG. Then menu then settings and change number of rows to 10 or 11.

Not really this version now has the official S*Y font in use, few icon changes and tweeks. The Ondemand has taken a slight step back with the yellow scroll bar across all brands, but only a small step back (still looks good thou)

Apart from that enjoy. Feedback always welcome

I've just upgraded from the Zeus build to the latest Helios, the latest version of this skin looks great!

I just have a small issue when fast forward, rewind, pause etc. on a recording it shows the static blue round icon in the top left but doesn't show the forward or rewind speed (ie 2x 4x 8x etc.). Is there another configuration change I need to do to make this work? This is on a Vu+ Solo2.

that was my initial plan but i couldnt figure out what else to put in the left hand side then. be abit of empty space.

can you think of anything?

theres not much more info you can put on the screen with this plugin, its quite limited with the way its been coded.
alot of the info has been coded into the listbox like channel names and program info etc. i cant split it out to put the info above the logo, like the epg screen.

Can the show description be split from the name & displayed in a different area?
That way if using PIG mode, description could be shown under PIG so it's a bit more consistant with other screens.

I watch a lot of Star Plus and Colors - these channels during the ad breaks give you a counter how long before the ads finish- unfortunately when i watch recordings on these channels and i fast forward the icon covers the top left and blocks the countdown

Hi just looking for a new image did not realise that Vix did an image for the dreambox I have a genuine DM500HD where would i find this image.
Thanks:)

We don't but our sister image team OpenATV do provide dreambox images that are the closest you will find to ViX on a DM.

Hi mate any update on moving that rewind/fast forward icon to the bottom left?

not yet,we are still deciding on whether to move it and if so where would be a good place.
the left of the infobar was just an idea.

leave it with us, i actually think the existing location is the wrong place otherwise original sly box users would encounter the same thing.

Heya mate,

LOVE it. Nothing more can be said to be honest. My feeble attempt was fruitless! :) For new users to the skin and V3, it might be a good idea to tell users the optimum settings to use on the first post e.g. number of rows, font size etc. Also, I see the name of the font is "SkyFinalRegular.ttf". If not it's an excellent copy. Is yours the exact one Sky use because if not I have their official font if you want it.

One final thing, sorry to be a nuisance, but on mine there is text cut off.

I've also created a different boot logo which is attached in the ZIP folder.

I'm sure Rossi will look into why that's doing that with the overlaying text. I've not come across that. You can also go to graphic mode on the epg which is cleaner than the text mode your currently in.

The font is sky's official 2014 font. It comes in three thicknesses which I acquired by my own handywork :-)

Sky have a separate custom epg font which is identical to the fonts we use, apart from the lower case "g"

apologies if already mentioned although I couldn't find when searched... you know when you go into a bouquet and see the preview window displaying the channel in the top right... when I scroll down through the channels to preview sometimes there is too much text (mini synopsis for now & next) under the preview window. Is there anything I can do to fit all the text in here? sometimes the synopsis is short & thats fine, but more often or not it gets cut off as it's too long?

Not the end of the world etc. and takes nothing away from the excellent skin... would just be nice to be able to control the info size or scroll option to enable the whole synopsis to be read.

Cheers

Fantastic job rossi2000 and the whole team. Love it also. Above would be helpful for optimising. Thanks again for the hard and obviously attention to detail work.

As you can see with the pics the 'Now' & 'Next' synopsis does not always fit into the space provided.

I'm guessing it's just down to what info the epg downloads from rytec...

I think the play fast forward etc. icon is perfect the way it is it means you can see the infobar etc. changing it's positioning for one person is a bit ott imho!

cheers, ive shrunk those parts a little bit so you wont see cut off text.
i might implement some running text widgets so it scrolls the description if its a long one.

tbh, its proper location should be down by the infobar.

could you possibly post the .ipk files / rar files so we don't have to wait for an image update?
or is there a way to force a skin update?
Thanks for the hard work man!

rossi2000

cant post the ipks as they are not compatible with the feeds.
all i can do is post the folder to transfer via FTP so you will still get updates online.

i will post it later on once ive done a couple more fixes.

Hi rossi2000 - great work.

I jave a question to help us amateurs. There used to be a tool called e2skinner. I am wonderinging if there are other or newer resources to help with ViX skin editing and creating - you have done such a meticulous job - especially visualisation of the xml as you edit? If you can provide some pointers great, and thanks again

rossi2000
11-05-14, 13:28
e2 skinner used to be ok.
but i find its easier to edit the xml directly.

i dont think e2skinner is compatible with vix skins.


if you want/need anymore info just post.

So assume you have to edit .xml using Notepad++ or similar, and then view results on your Enigma Compatible box? Or do you use an .xml editor that gives you a few more features, perhaps you can indicate? Thanks again.

rossi2000

edit using notepadd++ and then see results on e2 box :)

expect hundreds of e2 restarts :)

My pause is set up so that if i change channel after pausing, there is no warning it just changes channel as I prefer this.

The thing is, if i pause a channel. Then press channel up or down to go to another channel. the play sign is still showing for a few seconds. Although not a huge problem, I thought i would point it out.

Before I post just want to say great work on the skin. it's awesome.

Is there anyway to extend the width of the first infobar so it covers more of the screen?

Thanks

Hi Rossi

Like everyone else I think this skin is great and it has given me some peace from my partners moaning since I cancelled Sly and got a Gigablue quad. I am having the same problem as Stanman in post 205

(Got a problem with timers list, middle row is missing date and overlapped with sat position) is there a fix for it yet ? if so can you let me have the update please?

Many Thanks for your hard work

What image, build and box are you using? If you're on helios then delete the blue HD files from your box and download the skin from the feeds.
