Post subject:  Program guide background window too small niggle R5D1

Using R5D1 with a PVR 150 in the UK. (just about there now ;) )
Vid is via Ati Radeon 9200 SE S-Vid (@ 720x576i modeline)

Using uk_grab_tv_rt site for xml.
Issue I have is the 'program guide window' is too small for the amount of text supplied in the xml info from rt site.
Any way to make it larger?

thanks
Steve

I've found this problem before, you have several options.

1) Adjust the font sizes in the appearance setup (small,normal,large) This may work but sometimes makes the menus too big/small.

2) Change the theme your using. I found MePo-wide looks okay on a non-wide-screen tv and has a better program guide layout.

3) edit the theme to make the window larger or change the font. I'm having a go at theming at the moment it's pretty simple there just lots of it! Have a look in the themes directory /usr/share/mythtv/themes

The file you want to edit is ui.xml. Each screen has a window section with the different parts defined inside this section.

Code:
<window name="programguide">


Some of the fonts maybe defined in theme.xml
