    Not sure to be honest. You might be able to do something with the keymapper.If not it might be down to the PTS version used in his image.

    Anyway to use the web stream when not on LAN?

    Yeah just edit your keymap file (usr/share/enigma2). I'm on ARP so cant send you mine but if you open the keymap.xml and edit the following:

    remove these lines:
    <key id="KEY_REWIND" mapto="historyBack" flags="mr"/>
    <key id="KEY_FASTFORWARD" mapto="historyNext" flags="mr"/>

    Add this under 'map context="InfobarTimeshiftActivateActions:'
    <key id="KEY_REWIND" mapto="timeshiftActivateEnd" flags="m"/>

    I also have the left and right buttons (on the circular middle pad) set to rewind and forward live TV as well. To do this:

    Add these under 'map context="InfobarSeekActions">:':

    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBack" flags="b"/
    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekFwd" flags="b"
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>

    And add this under 'map context="InfobarTimeshiftActivateActions:':

    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="timeshiftActivateEnd" flags="m"/>

    Cheers man, I'm assuming both the first key_left and first key_right should be ended with />

    You left them open...?

    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBack" flags="b"/
    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekFwd" flags="b"
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>

    should it be:

    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBack" flags="b"/>
    <key id="KEY_LEFT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekFwd" flags="b"/>
    <key id="KEY_RIGHT" mapto="seekBackManual" flags="l"/>


    EDIT: Got it working bro, thanks a million, you're a hero. Any way I can do a full image backup, because I have it set up the exact way I want it now, just incase anything goes wrong in the future?

    In the link for my image is a folder with the version of the spark e2upgrade plugin which will allow you to take backups as well as doing upgrades.

    Been having this problem for a while now, when I attempt to enable plugin_e2upgrade.s within Spark the plugin starts, but when I press red to Start OSD nothing appears to select directory? it just remains on the list view of the plugins.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks

    It activates the plugin but no popup comes up to select the directory for the image?

    Thanks again Gaz....one last thing.

    The Bouquet list at the bottom isn't quite right, any idea what i need to change?

    My skin is slightly off, it's perfect except for the blurb underneath the Channel in the top left is slightly off screen...any ideas on how to fix this?

    Had similar issue recently. I reformatted the hard drive, flashed again and it worked perfectly.

    Yeah had to play around with it myself before I got it exactly right. Open up the CoolNiceGuide_1280.xml again and find
    <widget source="Title" render="Label" position="600,664" size="230,32" zPosition="1" font="Regular;25"

    Play around with these numbers, start by changing the size to maybe 270,32 and see if that helps. Could also try changing the position to maybe 560,664

    Are you talking about the programme description? If so you probably just need to edit the position. Find:
    widget source="Event" render="Label" position="67,149" zPosition="1" size="758,107" font="Regular;22"

    The 67 refers to how far over from the left the description starts and the 149 refers to how far down from the top so change these i.e change the 67 to maybe 87 to move it further to the right ect...

    I'd say its your hard drive/usb stick. It can be a little sensitive, especially with USB sticks. Try using a different one. I had to try 3 before getting one that the plugin liked!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,300 ✭✭✭phobia2011


    thanks for the help,

    im getting major lag on hyperion v3??

    hdd is mounted, turned pemanant timeshift off, changed skin to kerni, still major lag,
    each buttonpress causes the loading icon in corner?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,451 ✭✭✭championc

    As previously mentioned, the box can be fussy about the make of USB, Kingston is recommended.

    Also the USB port at the rear of the box should be used.

    all credit goes to Gazedor for this, i just followed his instructions and tips to get the guide setup on my box.

    As a bit of individual tinkering may be required to get it sorted on a particular box, i don't think a backup is a good idea.

    I've attached each of the posts which i found useful to sort out my setup.

    If anyone wants to use the CoolTV Guide 'Sky HD' skin but can't use the Sky HD Skin itself (due it lag ect...) then swap out your cooltvguide folder in extensions for this one https://www.dropbox.com/sh/t16qdh4f2c47od3/j7Y86idflK

    I've just modified it so that it doesn't rely on the xml or icons from the Sky HD skin. Cool 3D needs to be set to 'MyDesign' and guide on Cool Nice Guide. Screenshot attached (I have CoolPico Item Height set to 33,Event 30 font set to 25 and Timeline Font set to 24)
    Gazedor wrote: »
    Ahh right, the sky HD skin actually has its own code for cool TV guide in its skin.xml file which gets preference over the xml that's in my cooltvguide folder (kerni doesn't have this code so there's no issue when using it). You'll have to just delete this code from the sky HD skin xml. If you don't know how to do this I'll do it and upload the edited xml. Also you look to be on 'cool multi guide' and not 'cool nice guide'. Press 'guideswitch' once more.
    Gazedor wrote: »
    Not at home but from memory its in usr/share/enigma2/skyhdmod. In the xml you'll find some code that begins with screen name = Cool Nice Guide. Delete that down until you see the next 'Screen name=' header (and of course take a back up of the file before editing!)

    Course a backup would be a good idea. Why wouldn't it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 426 ✭✭FlexMcMurphy


    The guide from one persons backup probably won't fit correctly on someone elses TV. All the specific positioning required to make the guide appear correctly on their TV is probably to do with their screen size and the aspect ratio and resolution settings they are using which is unlikely to be the same for everyones TV.

    Fair enough, but it would be nice to see all the same.

    Someone might give you an image with it installed and you'd just have to tweak it a bit for your own TV. You could give it a go setting it up yourself... illdoit2morrow has listed out all the instructions from Gazedor above.
