A new container has been added for the OSD themes. It is called
"browse_info" and is used whenever a user goes into Browse mode while
watching LiveTV. I have already modified the existing blueosd and
defaultosd themes in cvs to add the browse_info container.
Since this is used in browse mode it would make sense to include the
channel number, start time, and either stop time or length.
If you are a maintainer of an OSD theme outside of Myth cvs, the easiest
way to add initial support for the browse_info container is just to
copy your existing program_info container.
I have been playing around with CornersOSD so pasted below is the added
section I have for that if anyohe is interested. I added the channel number
as well as both start/end times and the length.
Users who are keeping up with current CVS and using an OSD theme that is not
included in cvs can just copy the whole "program_info" container in their
osd.xml file and rename the copy to "browse_info".
The browse_info container supports the same keywords as the program_info
container. The keywords were listed in previous emails to the -dev list.
