P.S. the current setting in the skin (use skin defined option) for channel list is 

itemHeight="53"

Which fits exactly 16 items per page.

Wierd... this somehow does not happen... see my previous screenshot.... I also tried to change that height but somehow it did not had any effect...???? So I'm afraid there is a kind of other issue here.

In our standard skin 20 is the default....

Yes... It is not taken because seems PLi uses different attribute serviceItemHeight instead of itemHeight (in default skin it is defined both. and i have not defined serviceItemHeight )

 

And the default is 28

 

Besides the skin is designed to work with modified channel list that supports different two line layout and different handling of single line mode.

Also my mods supports different rendering of markers

But that requires c++ changes anyway...

 

So in general i dont use that serviceItemHeight

The two line channel selection we had in the past but we reverted it as it does not had a real added value. You have half of the channels. So the team did abandon it at that time. I even made a method that time that you could easily swap through the modes. But also Inthink after some time you never use it finally.
It indeed looks other images did somehow change the attributes. I suggest that service item height described better what it does. Orriginally it was forked from us (and we orriginally forked from DMM) But to keep the skin compatible this indeed needs to change and/or use both attributes.
To adapt now breaks all the current skins…. Or we need a patch that item height can also be used when our standard does not exists…
We need to change the code for the item height or adapt the skin.

OK. So i have added that serviceItemHeight to the skin. So in next build it should work on pli as well

[littlesat]

Let’s test but let also consider to adapt the code. When both items are recognized skins may become more easily compatible.
It is only evidence that forking an open source project is not that smart espacially when some things are not merged back

Maybe you can try to get 20 shown in the list

[littlesat]

You also do the two lines in the channel lists?

[littlesat]

I thought Inreverted I it long before COVID time… because previously it was mentioned here that it was not in. but it is still in via the teletext button it can be toggled. nice and quick.

What I really miss is a place/way to put the menu path on the screens

[Huevos]

You also do the two lines in the channel lists?

The 2 line is not double height in the latest version. You can control the height of single and double from the skin independently. So for example you could have single 45 itemHeight and double 75, not 90.

Well there is a space on full screen screens for that... But on smaller screens i am afraid no space for that.

As @Huevos stated this is completly new 2 line mode. We disposed the old variants of it since the new one is in some way more configurable from the skin.(e.g. configurable itemHeight independently, configurable look for markers, resolution icons...)

[littlesat]

Sounds there were improvement that were never merged back. It
Makes sense indeed as the epg has smaller letters usually. I know this needs to be changed in cpp.

The menu screens are indeed small. That was also why I said try to find a place for the path. Maybe the small menus might need some redesign?

[DimitarCC]

I am wondering even if that is there is it needed to be always shown? I thought there is a setting to show paths or not....

Or am i mistaken?

Well this is new development with completly changed the rendering of ServiceList in cpp.

So yes it is not proposed in PLi yet.....

If you think will be good to have maybe we can propose it. But it will dispose old 2 line layouts.
