After installing, you need to go to settings then change the skin to SkyQ and restart E2why cant i install this theme. ive tried using idreamx and i have tried manually uploading to /var/tmp/ and installing through local extentions... nothing.

also ive tried finding a way to extract using my mac but no luck.
Extract the ipk file from the rar file...do not ftp the rar file...I've tried numerous times now and it just won't do it.

That doesnt change the gap between number and name only cuts off/adds more to the channel name side of thingsYes...you need to increase the service name size in the settings on the graphicalepgpig screen...The updated file worked a treat 👍 the skinned screens are working a treat only thing is the huge gap between the channel numbers and channel names in main epg but thats all to do with how the channel numbers work right?
Hi,
This looks amazing pal! Nice work to you and Kiddac!!
However iv tried to put this on and im having the same problem as Maveric, extracted the ipk file from rar to var/tmp and opened Vix on my zgemma, using kiddacs skin and i dont have "install extension" but have ipkg-install.
Installed it fru restarted box and still old skin?
surely having people test on a range of boxes is useful. we may not be as clued up on enigma2 or skin coding/design but we are all trying to help. I already have a working skin I'm happy with but I'm testing to help the developer and for the development of the skin.firstly I think you are completely mad for releasing this to the public so early in such a beta stage :willy nilly: you should have just asked for some beta testers from guys that have a bit of know how and experience with these boxes. (no offence to anyone..but been there done that)
I will try not to interfere too much as it's your skin and I might do things slightly different. But here are a few constructive comments.
The bits you have skinned are spot on.
I like the menus - and don't think you really need to go with the full glass effect like the original.
I would remove the left/right arrows in the middle of the select bar on the setting pages though. Text or slider bars overlap it on too many screens. And its usually the problem screens that use the default setup screen so you can't bloody override it. This drove me nuts on slyk.
I presume the infobar highlights were bugging you and probably clashing with the text. Still looks good though.
You can fix the event name problem by increasing the height of the box,re-algining and putting a wrap on it. It works well.
<widget source="session.CurrentService" render="Label" position="0,561" size="195,60" font="Bold; 27" valign="center" Wrap="1" ......
See me screenshot.
On the epg, I would remove the line you have put on the header background between the date and times as it only works with a particular set column width. You can add in a line here dynamically so it moves with the columns.
Use the following bit of code to place a graphic after the date/times and between all the times individually if you want
<widget name="timeline0" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />
<widget name="timeline1" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />
<widget name="timeline2" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />
<widget name="timeline3" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />
<widget name="timeline4" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />
<widget name="timeline5" position="0,0" zPosition="1" size="0,0" pixmap="your.png" />

Thanks kiddac...I do not mind at all...like I said any feedback is welcomed. Its easy for me as I have this week free. I will finish tiding up the things and sorting the graphics then I will clean all the coding part.firstly I think you are completely mad for releasing this to the public so early in such a beta stage :willy nilly: you should have just asked for some beta testers from guys that have a bit of know how and experience with these boxes.

and personally I can't stand huge big metrix icons. If that was me I would just stick a big huge Q logo there instead. Certainly a hell of a lot less code.
Try reboot the box and then reload your epg source...nice work just installed it to have a look the program info isn't showing the now and next info i have manually ftpd the converters just incase but it made no difference

Then you have to delete same name .py and .pyo before ftp the ones I have then reboot the box not restarting E2...Have a gud shift at work...Ok I'll try tomorrow morning after work I reloaded slyk1hd before going out and that's showing it
Shows preview of the channel that you are currently ready to select...so you run through channel options and it shows you preview without actually secting the channel

It is not your screen it is the infobar coding of the service name widget. If you scroll past posts you will see kiddac has included the word wrap for the code. I have included it in the skin.xml already. Will try upload another beta version later today with new graphics.how is the infobar going on? mine doesn't fit i've tried positon setup but it doesn't make a difference

Yes mate. That is because of the background colour selections. The problem will be sorted when the skin is ready.Love the skin !!
Only issue is that navigation of an Extension (IPTV in this case) isn't an option i.e. i can't select anything - there's no 'mouseover' colour change to depict my selection if that makes sense?
Apart from that i LOVE it !!
