What Skin would people recommend to imitate a Virgin or SKY UI?

Blue HD is a great copy of Sky,....but the Video Enhancement Settings will not work with it.

What makes you think a skin will stop image features/addons working?

Tbh I think I tried to install video enhancement plugin and couldn't get the config screen up in bello.

it should default to the default skin for any screens not skinned in the new skin.

The last thing I would want is for mine to look like Sly or Vermin - each to their own though. It's great to have the choice.

It is good that we have so many choices, but the important thing for me, and probably many others, is that other members of the family will find this less confusing if they are used to S?y.

sky and virgin look so basic in comparison to what you can have. I use vixbmc_1080, no frills but looks great with picons

Noticed that Virgin have got an updated Interface for their Tivo boxes - is there a Vix Skin to match this new look?

See this thread for a VIX version of VM2 HD (Like new TiVO interface). It's not fully working, but it works well enough for daily use. I've edited a version of it a little bit to make it seem more functionally and more like the TiVO box.

Seriously? Link removed. Have some respect of forum rules & work originally done by the theme authors.

That version I linked is made by chababu, the original skin author (goes under the name Chabs on TK). Delete the link because it goes against forum rules, but don't start accusing me of disrespecting chababu's work, when I could of uploaded my own version and said I made it.

what specific elements dont work with the skin that you have suggested here?

Rossi - as you can see, lots of interest in a new virgin like skin ;)

I don't think its necessarily like... broken, I guess some stuff is misrepresented due to changes from PLI to VIX which Chabs hasn't got around to changing yet. Not everything is skinned, so it defaults back to the original vix skin, or a suprisingly nice looking minimalistic style display for the likes of some menus (see my posts for a photo of this regarding AutoTimers). I'd say it works well enough for daily use with a couple personal tweaks.

If you're going to push these skins on the forum, why not upload them to the forum? or even an github type link?
Would help get them tested & feedback a lot quicker.

I rarely vacate this forum, so if it got uploaded here, I would probably miss any questions or feedback. I remember seeing the original post of someone asking for the new plum skin, so I just thought I would let people know that one now exists. Enjoy.
