Skin Author: iMaxxx from vuplus-support.org
First modification: BiNiCKNiCH from gigablue-support.net
Modification for OpenPLi: Taykun345

I really like this skin and i decided to modify it for OpenPLi. It uses very simple graphics and therefore it is suitable for weaker receivers. Simple graphics does not mean that this skin looks bad, its just that it tries to mimic Windows Phone styling. And that is good in my opinion. iMaxxx really did great work here!

I took BiNiCKNiCH modification as basis, as he already changed a few things that i would have to change anyway. What i did additionally?

1. Changed font to Segoe font family which is what Windows 8 uses. BiNiCKNiCH uses fonts that i simply dont like. iMaxxx uses fonts that have too thin letters and it doesnt look good with OpenPLi. Maybe it looks good with VTi but i dont know.
2. Changed a few things in main and second infobar. BiNiCKNiCH changed them quite a bit but i decided to go back to iMaxxx design.
3. Added next event to Channel selection screen.
4. Changed colors of current event and channel/service in Channel selection screen.
5. Bigger fonts in Channel selection screen.
6. Added description for all settings and a few other small modifications so that it looks better.
7. Changed movie selection screen a bit - left side.
8. I decided to use renderers and converters that BiNiCKNiCH used because i think they are doing good job.
9. I deleted VTi related screens.
10. Modified About screen a bit and added OpenPli logo.
11. Some other things that i dont remember now.

I hope you will enjoy this skin as i enjoy it. I am open for suggestions!

These picons works 100%: https://www.dropbox..../LsaW5tMzpo?lst

I am already making 1.1 version!

[ckone]

Great skin. Things that in my opinion could be changed are.
1. Timer icon on main menu
2. In channel selection instead of Next Event there could be single epg info
3. Again in channel selection you could add info label next to menu.
4. You could move infobar to bottom as on original Metrix skin.

[Taykun345]

1. Already fixed
2. Can you give me example?
3. Not enough space but idea is ok
4. Maybe but not right now!

[ckone]

I have attached an image with epg info list. I tried to put it in skin but it didnt work. I dont know if is because of converter or epg or something else.
This is the config from that image.
<widget source="ServiceEvent" render="SingleEpgList" position="745,505" size="330,64" transparent="1" backgroundColor="black" foregroundColor="blue" noWrap="1" font="Regular;20" />

As for info button, i think that the left section of channel selection can be a little wider and the right section a little narrower.

I made left section a bit wider and now i could put INFO there but it does not exist in original skin and i dont have sources so i cannot make exact copy of MENU icon. Maybe i will ask in authors original topic.

About singleepglist. This renderer does not work with pli 3.0 as far as i know. But i know which one works ... Still not sure if i will add it to the skin.xml. Need to think about it.

[ckone]

The renderer is used on SimpleHD skin by Holi.
I have made two new icons for MENU & INFO.
If it is possible you could use them.

Realy great Skin! Respect!

[Dr. Hannibal]

For me it would be better when I see in the infobar what´s next on Tv, without to watch on the second info bar...
Sorry for the dubble post, I´m new here and I don´t have the permissions to edit my posts...

Ckone it's cool ! Please upload the ipk file. Thanks.

[Taykun345]

Ckone, nice work! I like your infobar additions and other stuff that you added or improved. I would like to implement icons and other things to my version, please post an .ipk file. Thanks

[ckone]

I am glad i here you like it.
Of course please change the file name of the .ipk because as you can see i changed it because i was modding it just for fun.
I think is one of the best skins EVER. Light, clean & very pro styled.

Icons are still work in progress.
