[mythtv-users] Myxer theme available

[Dave Hofstra]

So we are clear, the original poster only did not know about the option for 
Menu Theme in Appearances --> Setup. There are two choices in that menu, 
"Default" and "Classic". The original poster really only wanted to know how 
to set it to "Classic" from within Mythtv. Editing the xml files is 
certainly dangerous, and probably best done within a spare copy of the 
theme's original folder.
