{WIP} Live TV / PVR Support in Neon

nickhu · 2011-04-04 10:36

Just created an account to let you know, that entering the live tv menu just led to a black screen on my media pc. I added the mytv.xml from the confluence-pvr skin and all is fixed now. Just a heads up if anyone comes across this problem.

mytv.xml or mypvr.xml? I found that in my confluence (coming from the PVR branch) and added it to the skin, but there was no mytv.xml.

Thanks,

You just have to rename myTV.xml to myPVR.xml ... or just make a copy and keep both, i'm doing so ... you'll keep compatibility to older and newer pvr branches.

So with that included now is basic LiveTV/PVR functions working correctly in the skin, or are there other files missing?

Thanks,

OK, added myTV.xml and myPVR.xml from skin cirrus extended:

Here the results:

You see, there are textures and dialog missing, like now playing home, osd buttons, now recording on home ... and so on ...
in settings the only screen that needs a touch adjustments is the channel manager.

But all in all it works ...

I've tried mytv and mypvr from confluence and must say it fits much better for neon.

Thanks for that - I can make some basic change to normalize it a little more to Neon, but overall that definitely looks usable.

Can you pls tell me where did you find this mytv.xml from?
I see a Live TV button in the Home screen ,also in the Settings there is a option of Live tv but i can not see any channel in the Home screen\Live TV
Can you give any further instructions?
Thanks for your attention
