Some improvements?

Raybobo's Photo Raybobo 21 Sep 2018

Hi everybody,
Just 2 questions about improvements on Pli:
When displaying infobar by pressing OK on media player, the info bar is in white, which is not always good readable, due i.e. to channels logo.
Is that possible to implement color choice for the fonts?

 

And 2nd question, maybe already talked about: I had on my old Topfield, capability of adding "time stamps" on the progress bar of the recordings, in order to skip directy to these time stamps.

This function is very useful.

 

And last, what are the "marks" on progress bar when watching a record'

 

Thanks for the attention, best regards,

 

Ray

Regarding the marks. If the recorded channel has now/next informations 2 or more marks are added to the recording so that you can switch to recording start and end very quick. Just press the < > keys near the 0.
You can add/remove marks by pressing 0.

I think it is also possible to add these markers with the cut list editor, or use that to cut the leading and trailing but of the recording so you don't have to skip anymore?

Yes, that's possible.

 

Regarding infobar colors: Do you use standard PLi skin? I don't have problems with it. So I currently don't exactly know where your problem is. Maybe you can make a screenshot so that the maintainers of the skin can see it and it's clear for every one what exactly you mean.

Or try other skin. Every skin can change colors, position,... of the infobar.

Yes, I use standard skin. It's not really a problem but when the infobar displays info up on some channel logo, that sometimes is white or grey, it's hard to read, it's only this. But I will have a look on changing bar position or other skin.
Thanks.

Can you make a screenshot or photo so we do understand what you exactly mean?

Thanks for the answer, the markers works well.
There is no documentation of all this functions? Because OpenPli is a rich os and having some guide on all this will be nice.
 
PS: I will send a picture of the font of the infobar.

We have a wiki, but adding all this info to it goes painfully slow due to lack of contributions...

And on quite a number of occasions the HELP-button will also provide some clues.
