Skin for PLI

Tom0000 · #1 (**permalink**) 10-04-2006

Because I have found interesting skin and I have had some time , I have converted it to PLI (with niniZap object). It is matrix's orbita x skin.
I hope, others will find it too interesting.
On the picture is control ecm_info with text : CA: 0500 P: 007c00 decode: emu . Maybe next pli will have this control for display the same info.

How can we make the skin ntsc compatible ?

**hemertje** · #8 (**permalink**) 10-05-2006

make the upper pics relative to the upper horizontal screen limits
and the lower pics relative to the low horizontal tv screen limits

see the MediaPli skins for example

remember pal has 576 horizontal lines and ntsc only 480!

When I have talked with authors of DS firmware I have found good idea of improvement and I think pli can use it too.

Enigma can be extended to support 20 or more new skin objects. All should be able to define in frontpanel of skin called during pressing OK or during changeing chanel.

They can be labels named USROBJ01 ... USROBJXY.
The enigma will inset on this lable possibion it, what will read from :
/tmp/skin.info
like:
USROBJ01=Sample Tekst,X,Y,Z

The enigma will write on label space the text :
'Sample Tekst'
in X colour
in Y font size
if Z=T
If Z=G the 'Sample Tekst' will be the link to png graphic file to paint on label position.

The file /tmp/skin.info can be updated by scripts. Here we can add info about lan/wlan/inet status, about emu, provid, key, free ram/flash, ...

Maybe one more ... if ok button will be pressed or chanel will be changed, enigma can run one specific script, where the user will be able to add own code for update /tmp/skin.info file. (or maybe only on OK pressing , if script will be run every each chanel change it can slowing box) The new labels should be updated on the screen by enigma every ... 5 or 10 seconds. It lets to show current info from /tmp/skin.info even if update scripts will need long time for update this file.
