The link in the quoted message is still wrong but i cant change that. The one in the original post should be working.

Otherwise check the sinus thread for the most up to date info.

Thanks for your kind remark! I have a beta version of a simplicity mod currently up for download. Looking for some people to test it.

Maybe in the future I can pick up the cirrus mod again, bu butchabay and malexx are already doing an awesome job.

I use XBMC as a MythTV frontend.

I wrote a short python script to get the name of the next recording and have this pop up on my home screen when I'm over the link to my recordings:

(If you're interested, the "Powersaving" option is a script that sets an ACPI wake alarm based on the next scheduled MythTV recording and suspends the machine - it'll only suspend if various tests are passed e.g. no active recordings/jobs, no active ssh sessions etc. The script also runs as a cron job so it can powerdown later).

@Malexx, @Butchabay, and anyone else, feel free to incorporate and improve any of my mods in your MOD packs if you want to.

I have a 404 error, it's possible to repost it ?

Thank's

I thought I'd share this little mod, in case anyone's interested. Essentially it's a tiny pop-up window which shows the current time.

Why would you use it? Most of the time the skin shows the current time anyway - yes, but not when in full screen video mode (and I don't want to pause it - I just want something discrete).

Don't you have a watch? Well, no, I don't actually.

Pointless? Maybe.

So here's the code:

Code:

<window id="1234" type="dialog">

    <animation effect="slide" start="0,40" end="0,0" time="250" tween="back" easing="out">WindowOpen</animation>

    <animation effect="slide" start="0,0" end="0,40" time="250" tween="back" easing="in">WindowClose</animation>

    <defaultcontrol always="true">41</defaultcontrol>

    <coordinates>

        <system>1</system>

        <posx>820</posx>

        <posy>680</posy>

    </coordinates>

    <controls>

        <control type="group">

            <control type="image">

                <posx>0</posx>

                <posy>0</posy>

                <width>200</width>

                <height>60</height>

                <texture border="20,20,20,2">InfoMessagePanel.png</texture>

            </control>

            <control type="fadelabel" id="401">

                <description>Time</description>

                <posx>10</posx>

                <posy>10</posy>

                <width>180</width>

                <height>18</height>

                <font>font12_title</font>

                <textcolor>white</textcolor>

                <align>center</align>

                <aligny>center</aligny>

                <scrollout>false</scrollout>

                <label>$INFO[System.Time]</label>

            </control>

        </control>

        <control type="button" id="41">

            <onfocus>Dialog.Close(1234)</onfocus>

            <texturenofocus>-</texturenofocus>

            <texturefocus>-</texturefocus>

            <animation effect="fade" delay="3000" end="100">Focus</animation>

        </control>

</controls>

</window>

You'd need to save the file in the skin's 720p folder and call it something like "custom_TimeDialog_1234.xml".

You'd also need to map a key to show it - "XBMC.ActivateWindow(1234)"

I don't think this is a skin issue (sounds more like how the TV is interpreting the signal from your computer) - so you may not get too much help in this particular forum.

However, have you checked the TV settings - often there's some option like "Just Scan" which can stop bits getting cut off.
