We'll need to add the update notification. It isn't present. I am not keen on the globe though.

If you mean the tabs on epg like here https://www.world-of-satellite.com/a...3&d=1544642389 probably best starting a thread as it requires modified files.

Yes sir, that's exactly what I meant. Will do that, cheers

Current way to access that list in all skins is to press the TV button.

I know that, I'm coming from an openatv image that had kiddac sky q skin with tabbed bouquets, it's a lot tidier, I see it can be done with this skin also, as I'm now on vix image,.. Thought I'd ask

Kiddac's skins are not on openatv.. The customised "builds" on other forums use scripts to install them and other tweaks to make it easier for users.

The tabbed bouquets was part of the epg mod. With the exception of people using HDMI-CEC and replacement remotes like Harmonies, I don't see the point of replacing the existing function showing bouquets. You then scroll through them until you land on the one you want. You can't skip a bouquet, you have to scroll through them, one by one. Apart from looking like a Sky receiver, I don't see the added benefit.

On Tetris, you can toggle showing the next block. It is pointless toggling what you will see if you rotate left or rotate right.

TV = open lists of bouquets
> (next to 0) = Jump to next bouquet.
< (next to 0) = Jump to previous bouquet.

Up/down/left/right = move within EPG

8 = Page down
2 = Page up
4 = Page left
6 = Page right

CH+ = Forward 24 hours
CH- = Back 24 hours

7 = increases/decreases number of items

5 = Jump to current time
9 = Jump to prime time. Prime time is configurable

1 = Reduce timescale
3 = Increase timescale

0 = move to home of list, i.e first channel of current bouquet

EPG = Show Single EPG for current channel

Text = Go to specific date/time

Blue (short) = Add auto timer for highlighted event
Blue (long) = Show autotimer list

Red (short) = IMDB search for current event
Red (long) = Sort EPG list

Green (short) = Add/remove timer for highlighted event
Green (long) = Show Timer list

Yellow (short) = Search for similar events

Record (short) = Add record timer for highlighted event
Record (long) = Add zap timer for highlighted event

The EPG mod thread is here.
https://www.world-of-satellite.com/s...cal-EPG-screen
People supplying modified code are politely requested t ensure they add debug code to distinguish that users are using a modified epgselection.py

Please keep this thread specific to this skin.

Simple1080 was modified from the PLi skin which does not have our epgselection py. Some of those EPG navigations do not work as the stock skin.

You can still use TV button to bring up bouquets in epg or have bouquets on launch.

The code just give a visual of the next bouquets without the code you can use < and > to switch bouquets you just can't see what the next bouquet is.

But yes I do agree it should be in it's own thread. You will still need to amend this skin for it to show tabs.

I think its a nice feature. Should be an optional feature imo. We should be encouraging not discouraging improvements.

Hi. Nice skin
Any plans for software update notifications?

[abu baniaz]

Hi!
I'm very happy about this skin "Simple Ten Eighty", It's really nice, and have used it since I upgraded to 5.2.034 on my Duo4K and Ultimo4k.

There is one thing I miss:
I have not seen that there is any flashing or fixed notification that there is an upgrade available,
Isn't it working with this skin or is it any setting I haven't done?

Sorry about delay, the update notification has been added

https://github.com/OpenViX/skins/commit/3b151eb56812cf733719909dea6ca03716337c69

Next update will have it, so you won't see effects until two updates.

I've used the same icon as other skins/images

Hi

This has been my preferred skin for a while. However in the last six weeks (not sure exactly when) the epg clock icons no longer fit. I've checked and see that they are 32 x 32. Anyhow, I resized them to 25 x 25 and they now fit properly. The ones I've re-sized are attached...

[abu baniaz]

can you post a screenshot please?

[stick50jr]

Here you go... this is with the new 25 x 25 icons:
