If a program has ended, flag it as not being the best event to switch to (highlights the correct event)
Fix incorrect background color being set when picon is scaled (only uses colors in the color index, I think)
Change default picon scale background color to white
Fix jump over empty by not adding records on empty channels if set to true


***** Skip empty services is set by default so no records will be shown on channels with no TBA records, to revert to the previous way things were working, please use the config screen and disable Skip empty services ( I could change the default, but as this is a legacy config it would not change anything )

Any feedback on the last version?
What else is needed other than the patches before this can be merged into the image?

Well i didnt find any more glitches. Seems to working correct except....
if the program has ended it hides the title but still select the empty rectangle when navigating up and down instead to select currently playing event!
Also if the EPG data is sent but the title is "" (means empty title is set) it still highlight the rectangle as there is event which i think is not right! If there is no data (or there is but "") it must be show as there is no data or at least as To be determined!
Also the color button labels are correct now but if change the mapping in keymap.xml the names does not change! i think there must be logic to change the names of buttons according to the mapping.
That it i guess!

For your first point is this still an issue with the last release 1.0.15? I have tested and when moving up and down the program that has ended is not selected.
For the empty title, we could fill this with the TBD string, Ill make a chagne for that.
Ill look into changing the labels based on what they are set to in the keymap.
Thanks

Well i am testing also with 1.0.15 and still it select the finished event! It could be due to the fact that there is interval for 15 minutes that we round to! My event for example finished before 2 min. and is still selected when moving up and down! If that is the case maybe that interval should be more configurable, forexample 1,2,5,10,15,20,25,30

firled??

There may be an explaination as to why the selection did not work for you once, but its only a guess if this is what you actually saw.
There is a case where the epg from the dvb stream contains overlapping data, so that one events after another has started. In this case it may look like the incorrect event is selected.

Ahh i was mean "field" but i dont know why i cant edit my post!
It could be right that there is overlapping events! Maybe that was the case since now it select correct! But i think passed events color should be different to not mistake!

may be better than change collor for old event, disable jump to old event. May be some as: if current_time > event's end_time then return

[awx]

We can add a parameter to skin past events, that shouldnt be a problem.

Yes good idea and also ims's suggestion is not bad idea also!

[awx]

Sounds like a good idea, I will look to add a option to do that.

Perhaps before adding all of this we should look to get all the changes integrated to the repo, but I am not sure what would be missing or needed (Other than patches) before that can be done.

Updated version
--------------------

Add a progressbar so we dont need to lookup event id just to generate this
If an event title is empty fill it with the tbd string
Allow disabling selection of expired events
Set the proper name for buttons based on what the keymap is set to (needs localization testing)
Add compatibility mode, stops filling event object which prevents a lookupEventId on each selection change
Use 1:1 aspect ratio for picons

I was just test it! Seems to work all the way! Also i am using another language and localization also work for me (at least on timer button)

tried v.16 - it seems, for fontsize > 16 is bottom of text cropped (y,p,...)

You will need to change the even font padding in the skin, to get this to look right.

little bug - when is zapped to channel, for which is missing picon and you run MultiEPG, then MEPG begin on 1st channel in bouquet always.

[mirakels]

Interesting improvements.
Tried it and looks good, but there are a few peculiar things: The service names look horrible (font?). The program info is sometimes limited to a single word. Did you turn off word wrap?

Can you create git patches for each separate enhancement so we can include then in de pli repos (assuming you want the code to be part of pli repository) in a clean and documented way?

Word wrap is enabled but you need to set serviceFontPadding to be larger for it to wrap. The font for service names is the same as it use to be, the default that is. Perhaps theres something in the skin attributes that I missed.

I have attached the patches.

I will try to reproduce and fix it. Thanks

Could you please provide some more details about this? Channel selection is not related to weather or not a cannel has a picon. There must be something else that causes the problem.
