mediaportal - guide colors - matejdro - 2011-07-28
Can anyone tell me how can i bind genre names to specific colours? Currently whole guide is gray

In the add-on options, configure the add-on, click use genre stings (something like that). Save.
Go to tv options, epg, delete and read new.
Now view timeline.

Yes, there is an option to enable genre strings. But there is no option to set which strings represent each color. My guide is in slovenian and i doubt that it will recognize "Otroški Program" as children program.

The next version of the Mediaportal PVR addon will have the possibility to add your own string to type/subtype mapping into a XML file:
See genre_translation.xml for my current mapping file.
However, I don't know how XBMC assigns a particular color to a particular id. Could be hardcoded or part of the skin.

Is something similar planned for the fortherecord PVR plugin as well? Or is that not possible due to how fortherecord works?
Also, will this work when importing EPG data from the DVB signal, or will this only work for EPG data extracted from XMLTV?
