HD. Posted July 30, 2013 Share Posted July 30, 2013 Seems that something has changed either with DVBViewer or our broadcast. Now I cannot see program desctiption in miniepg or recording's info anymore. Before, when it worked recording info looked like this: Info=Lyhin korsi. Rikospaikkatutkijat siirtyvät maalle, kun hevostalleilta löytyy nainen murhattuna. Todisteiden mukaan muutkin kuin hevoset piehtaroivat karsinoissa, ja murhamotiiveja alkaa kasaantua.

Any ideas how to get it working? Quote Link to comment
Panu Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) A bit late response, but I'll post it anyway... This might be something that affects only finnish users. I experienced the same problem after updating yesterday from 5.0 to 5.2.8.1. I solved this by manually editing XML -files @ C:\Program Files (x86)\DVBViewer\OSDSkins\ (or wherever you have installed DVBViewer). In that location you might have more than one folder, pick the one matching the name of the active OSD -skin. You can check this from Settings -> Options -> OSD Skins (Asetukset -> Valinnat -> OSD ulkoasut). By default it propably is called "default" Mine wasn't, but I have been fiddlin with these before... You have to start the editor (Notepad or whaterver, I prefer Notepad++) as Administrator (right click the program icon and choose "Run as Administrator") in Win 7 to be able to save the changes, of course. It might be a good idea to back up the folder before editing anything. I changed the following parts in the the following files, original setting marked as red, setting after the change marked green. myMiniEPG.xml Before: . . . <item> <description>EPG Description</description> <type>Label</type> <id>1</id> <disabledcolor>60FFFFFF</disabledcolor> <x>40</x> <y>425</y> <width>543</width> <height>71</height> <label>#TV.Now.description</label> <font>font14</font> <verticalalign>left</verticalalign> </item> . . . After: . . . <item> <description>EPG Description</description> <type>Label</type> <id>1</id> <disabledcolor>60FFFFFF</disabledcolor> <x>40</x> <y>425</y> <width>543</width> <height>71</height> <label>#TV.Now.event</label> <font>font14</font> <verticalalign>left</verticalalign> </item> . . . myEPG.xml Before: . . . <item> <description>EPG Description</description> <type>textbox</type> <id>15</id> <x>108</x> <y>201</y> <width>602</width> <height>242</height> <up>14</up> <down>16</down> <left>15</left> <right>15</right> <standalone>true</standalone> <label>#EPG.description</label> <font>font14</font> <subcontrols> . . . After: . . . <item> <description>EPG Description</description> <type>textbox</type> <id>15</id> <x>108</x> <y>201</y> <width>602</width> <height>242</height> <up>14</up> <down>16</down> <left>15</left> <right>15</right> <standalone>true</standalone> <label>#EPG.event - #EPG.description</label> <font>font14</font> <subcontrols> . . . There is also a nice tool called skin editor available for download at DVBViewer site: http://www.DVBViewer.com/en/?page=downloads, but I was too impatient to learn how to use that to make the change. However, I did use it to figure out what was the information I wanted to see instead of the description -field. Edited November 19, 2013 by Panu Quote Link to comment
HD. Posted November 22, 2013 Author Share Posted November 22, 2013 Thanks Panu for sharing, that did the trick, now everything is back to the way it was. Seems that something in Finland's broadcast has changed or something in DVBViewer has changed. But glad we do have a solution now. Quote Link to comment
Panu Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 No problem, glad I could help. I'd say the change was in DVBViewer, because this started the moment I updated (18.11.2013) Quote Link to comment
ahenric Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 Instead of a minus sign use the following command: Like this: <label>#EPG.event #EPG.description</label> This will add a newline instead and looks better, especially when the event field doesn't contain any info. Quote Link to comment
