Text2skin based skin "AvP".

I see that the emergence of new skins helps to develop plugin text2skin.

1080 skin: http://ag1455.nm.ru/VDR/AvP1080-130310_lyngsat_logos.tar.bz2
Used with vdr-xine. Not tested with xineliboutput.
Skin is absolute and its dimensions are not regulated.
This will admits in the future to integrate the replaceable sub-backgrounds for plugins with the constant arrangement of the text. For example, a certain tables for reelchannelscan etc..

Plugins, having a working window 720x576 (games, etc.), it's better not to use because in this case they will be have a very small window.
If you still want to use the old plugins, simply set in vdr-xine OSD size to 720x576 and choose the size of fonts. The OSD size will remain 1080.

Transparency is increased to approximately the same intensity with the video. This softens the hue and the OSD will be less wearying.
Necessary perform the command "make" for create new file vdr-text2skin-AvP1080.mo (to avoid confusion).

You can change the transparency of images using:

sudo sed '/alpha="160"/s/160/200/g' AvP1080.skin <AvP1080.skin > AvP1080.tmp;cp AvP1080.tmp AvP1080.skin;rm AvP1080.tmp

A similar example of a command to change the transparency of the black font and black fields:

sudo sed '/DB_Black/s/9F000000/FF000000/g' AvP1080.colors <AvP1080.colors > AvP1080.tmp;cp AvP1080.tmp AvP1080.colors;rm AvP1080.tmp

The logos can be downloaded in the format *.jpg (Hi-Resolution version) from http://www.lyngsat-logo.com/ saving the html page completely.
If you need a HI-color logos OSD, you can specify in lines 593, 599, 611 and 620 parameter

colors = "64"

but it decreases the cursor speed.

Pick a name in the menu:
"AvP1080"

Recommended font sizes:
Default font size - 3.2;
Small font size - 3.0;
Fixed font size - 2.8.

The format of the screen in vdr:
16/9

The size of OSD in vdr-xine:
1920x1080

The SD skin: http://ag1455.nm.ru/VDR/AvP-24-11.tar.bz2
This is simply a continuation some projects. Used all that has been done by others skins and themes.

How to use.
The font http://ag1455.nm.ru/VDR/vdrsymbols.tar.bz2 must be placed to /usr/share/fonts/truetype/vdrsymbols
Preselect the skin "Classic".
Select from the VDR menu FontOsd and FontSml = "VDRSymbolsSans: Book". Then FontFix = Courier:Bold.
For full screen menu, please select:
Left and Top - 0;
Width and Height - 100;
Note: width and height must be equal.
Select font size:
Default font size - 3.4;
Small font size - 3.1;
Fixed font size - 2.7.
If you use vdr-xine please select screen resolution 720 x 576.
Almost backgrouds of skin will be scaled in this size. However, work on fullhd version continues.

Now select "AvP".

You can adjust the OSD size.
Max. lower OSD limit:
Left & Top <= 7%
Width & Height => 87%

Other notes.
Some elements of the skin react only to the Russian words. So you must have to translate it in the AvP.skin.
Some menus can't be scaled, but with decreasing size of the OSD and centering they move up and right.
It is noticed that in some cases the color of buttons and icons appear distorted or have any defects in the imposition of foreign small letters and pictures. But vdr still does not support truecolor. In this case, you can do (for Ubuntu):

apt-get autoremove graphicsmagick graphicsmagick-libmagick-dev-compat libgraphics-magick-perl libgraphicsmagick++1 libgraphicsmagick++1-dev libgraphicsmagick1 libgraphicsmagick1-dev

apt-get install libextractor-dev imagemagick libmagick++10 libmagick++9-dev libmagick9-dev

Backgrounds are limited in the number of colors. Some 64, others 32. But this is enough.
As for the Russian words, they simply are certain function (not much). So you can use this skin.
I use a plugin Setup. Thus part of title on Russian. I think if someone like it, he corrects it in accordance with its own language. So you just need to wait.

I forgot to say that since AvP can output the message "No Signal", then if you use vdr-xine you need to either rename the files "*black.mpg" or download the screensavers: http://ag1455.nm.ru/VDR/NoSignal_clean.tar.bz2

Updated English UTF-8 version in the first message.

Updated. For the current git-version text2skin please apply the patch in this archive.

Hm.... Line 90 contains the words that seem true:

<marquee x1="169" x2="329" y1="-40" y2="-30" color="DB_Black" align="left" delay="10" font="Fix">Lang.:{ReplayLanguageDescription}</marquee>

As I understand that now it works. Well, but I assumed to use the patch from the archive.
Have you exactly applied the patch from the archive to the current git-version?
Are you checked what the file AvP.skin opens with no errors in the web brouser?
I don't see any Russian words in the file AvP.skin exluded those that are closed by symbol <!--......-->
but they are hidden for reading.
I have missed something?

Significantly improved color rendition. Some new graphical effects.
For new (git) tex2skin-1.3 please apply the patch inside archive.

Ed: Fixed speedup bug in <list

Added localization.

Install:
make - creates a files AvP.pot in the folder ../po and vdr-text2skin-AvP.mo in the folder /etc/vdr/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES
make clean - removes ALL these files.

If you want to change the path to the folder /locale, just edit it in the Makefile
