SkyQ Skin

2 Small issues I have found, when viewing the EPG, the last row on each page is off the screen, It's not TV screen ratio related. The second issue relates to the channel select box (the one which contains the PIP for boxes which support that function) There is now an image which I am guessing should show the channel description although it shows Sky Movies for every channel?

i think the box should show a preview of that channel if your box doesn't support pip it will show preview.png (chabs tell me if i'm wrong) i've just changed it to show the skyq logo instead im getting the same with the last row on epg it doesnt matter if you change it
Yes...you correct. For the latest version the preview.png is in SkyQ/Backgrounds/

You can change this anytym to anything which you want. Just make sure the png file is 230 pixels by 135 pixels and name is preview.png and replace the one is the skin.

You shouldnt get the same if you have changed it. Try restart GUI...

It's not just me then  Can you tell me the location of preview.png?

Thanks
ftp prev.png from /usr/share/enigma2/SkyQ to desktop rename it preview.png and ftp to /usr/share/enigma2/SkyQ/Backgrounds
Keep the size as 230 × 135

Use an image editor and just resize it or use the old preview.png from version 1..

for the number of rows it changes it but it still doesn't fit the last row this is after changing 8 to 6

The default is 10 for the rows...if you change the rows in the skin.xml then you also need to change the item height and the list size. It is the item height multiplied by the number of rows you want to get to fit it.

If anyone works out a fix for the rows and wants to publish a walkthrough, I'd be very interested, it's a little over my head and I'm sure I'd critically break something :D
 
What do you guys want to be altered in the epg?? How many rows??
