Need Help with a EPG Guide Modification - code

#1

Post by Robertus » Thu Nov 29, 2012 11:45 am

Hi, I have posted in another thread a Microsoft.MediaCenter.Shell.dll which has 13 rows and I also change the fonts & channel size so it does not look cluttered.

Anyway, when you have the Guide up, the logo or call it a word "GUIDE" shows in the top right hand corner, I would like to remove that word GUIDE as it covers a bit of the top rightside row.

Would anyone have any idea which sub file in the .dll would hold the information, I would assume it would be one of the 6 or so EPG****.MCML files, I have spent hours looking for it and its driving me crazy?

You can find the .dll here for W8, it works in both 32bit & x64:-

http://www.thegreenbutton.tv/forums/vie ... =49&t=3584

I am asking for some help from some Coder's on the forum in regards to the following:-

The RecordedTv red images need to be made smaller so to show in the 13 epg guide dll.

In the EHRES.DLL in W8 x64 under RC Data, I am having trouble importing the new PNG images, both "Video.Recordmanual.png & Video.Recordsingle.png" need to be resized to 15x15x24bit and the "Video.RecordmanualRepeating.png and Video.Recordseries.png" need to be sized to 27x15x24bit.

Also I am try to delete the word "Guide " which is in the right hand top corner when the guide is displayed, I believe it's in the EHRES.DLL at String #252 but I am having trouble finding it so to be able to delete it.

Could someone on the forum help with this changes as I do not have the Programs to enable the import on these changed PNG images for the W8 x64 EHRES.DLL?

Hope someone can help do these changes?

Thanks

Ok I have finally done it!

Have the new EHRES.DLL W8 x64 working, now shows the Red Recording dots in the modified Microsoft.MediaCenter.Shell.dll (13 Row) when you press record for both Recorded Tv & Recorded Tv series.

Ok now I need to find where the word "Guide" is to be able to delete it from appearing in the top right hand side when the guide is up? anyone know where to look?

Here is a screen shoot of the 13 row W8 Guide, you can see the word Guide which I am now trying to remove:-

Ps. This screen is from my W8 test bed computer which has a small monitor.
