Hi,

 

I'm trying to modify a skin to have realtime end of a movie instead displaying remaining hh:mm:ss

For example if at 22;00 i begin to watch a recorded movie which lenght is 45mn i want to display in infobar "EndTime 22;45"

How could i do this ?

I've tried to play around with <convert type="ServicePosition"> and <convert type="ServiceTime"> without success.

Is there a converter that can do that ?

I've searched everywhere without any luck.

 

Any advice ?

 

Regards

The skins have already much information…. But add it so skins can use it can be done I think. And maybe consider to call it just END_TIME as START before it is somehow confusing.

Maybe make it optional in custommize, so as an addition that you can also see the time when it ends

In pause no when i do skipping yes, but i'm using AdvancedFreePlayer Infobar, will try later with native MoviePlayer Infobar

Skin modified just to try, later i'll add START and END_TIME to avoid confusing

We already have too many options….add another is also confusing especially when the skins decide what to display where… and actually end time is usually the start time of the next… so somehow this is double information and in channel selection you get even more…. So personally I do not see the real added value… And start and end time together take more place than a duration… so for skinning making it configurable is not doable. Years years ago we tried and did a lot of work to get the skinning clean and balanced… maybe for the second infobar showing start and end time above the epg info could be considered.
