blasgl Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 Can someone tell me how to turn the word "channel" off? It started appearing after the upgrade to 7.3.0.0. I´m using the skin concinnity 3D, with the Default skin the word goes away. Thanks Quote Link to comment

I´m using the skin concinnity 3D, with the Default skin the word goes away. Confirmed. The concinnity OSD skin seems to be the only one that is affected. A quick & dirty work-around that works here for TV channels is renaming C:\Program Files (x86)\DVBViewer\OSDSkins\concinnity 3D - Deutsch\Images\info_background.png e.g. to info_background_.png, so that DVBViewer doesn't find it anymore. However, there may be side effects, and "channel" still appears on radio playback. It is somehow related to an OSD page that is intended to show state information (pause, recording etc). Will be investigated further... Quote Link to comment
Griga Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 P.S. A better work-around (or even a fix, dunno yet): Delete the whole section <item> <description>Channel</description> <type>Label</type> <id>21</id> <disabledcolor>60FFFFFF</disabledcolor> <y>490</y> <width>1920</width> <height>100</height> <label>channel</label> <font>font40b</font> <align>center</align> <shadowX>2</shadowX> <shadowY>2</shadowY> <shadow>true</shadow> </item> in the file C:\Program Files (x86)\DVBViewer\OSDSkins\concinnity 3D - Deutsch\videoinfo.xml Still to be checked for unwanted side-effects... you have to do it, because you know the skin and how it should look like better than me.

Griga Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 P.P.S. Removing the label from the XML code (see previous post) is the fix! Formerly the channel label was used for displaying feedback about channel selection by number (already pressed number keys, channel name). However, in DVBViewer 6.1.3 the Mini EPG took this task over, and the label became obsolete. For optimisation I have removed all code that handles this label in 7.3.0. Though it is still present in the OSD Skin definitions, it doesn't appear in other skins because it is either invisible by default (e.g. in the Default Skin) <visible>false</visible> or the default label text is empty (a single hyphen means "no text") <label>-</label> However, in the concinnity 3D skin it has a non-empty default text and is visible by default <label>channel</label> That's why it remains on the screen all the time in 7.3.0, because the code, that made it invisible, is gone...
