Hi ya Delagroov,

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

Thanks

[Delagroov]

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.

sorry how do i update the skin for the improved version. running in on a solo2

[Delagroov]

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.
