Skin Support - Post questions for all my skins in here.

@x 5 Been testing openatv 7.0 tonight. I got no problem with picons.
In fact I got zero issues with any of my skins or plugins so far. Only thing still missing is python3-multiprocessor still needs a manual install for epiconizer.

I did update the skins and skin custom components a few days ago. Have you updated to all the latest version of skins, components, plugins.

Openvix 5.5 is my next test bed.

are you referring to openvix dsayers.

openatv7.0 for me

these picons were brought in via my epiconizer and not a 3rd party set.

spoke too soon, just tried vskin bolt

the picons in channels select (top-right) and infobar, use my own custom picon resizer component.
Other picons use alternative methods.

if anyone is testing openatv 7.0 here is an amended PliExtraInfo.py file until openatv update their file.
I use this element on some of my infobars, so will bootloop your box on load if you don't use the corrected file.

openvix 5.5 have already fixed this issue. (attached is openatv 7.0 file only)

/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Components/Converter/

**edit openatv have now pushed a commit for this bug. So will be in an update shortly.

Right I have been on a 2 day debug mission to find out what was wrong with PIL library and why it isn't working with compressed pngs/picons.

I have literally put a error catch on every single function in image.py and PngImagePlugin.py
(/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PIL)

Spent days going round in circles

I created a test file for Windows. Used the exact same Pillow 8.2.0 library, the exact same test picons.... yet windows made the graphics, enigma2 didn't. Fecking weird.

Eventually narrowed it down to how transparency is created. For normal pngs this has an alpha channel. For compressed pngs this doesn't have an alpha channel as the transparency is done in a slightly different way to save space.

So eventually found the function that was failing on enigma2.

But still couldn't work out why enigma2 was failing and windows wasn't.
Basically it was meant to call a function, but this function seemed invisible on enigma2. So it failed.

So I eventually renamed the function and altered the calling logic.

it was originally call "chunk_tRNS"
I renamed it "chunk_TRNS" and hey fecking presto the exact same code now worked in enigma2.
Absolutey bizarre. There is no conflict that I know of with the original name. There was no unusual characters or spacing in the original name. I even retyped out the original name again to see if there was any strange characters. There wasn't.
Yet changing one bloody letter to uppercase allowed the function the be found and called. 2 days it took me to find that. Crazy.

Problem is this is a python package. I currently don't know if I can overule that without the user manually updating a file.
I can't put it in my ipks as these are py files and will be removed if any of those packages get uninstalled.

I will do some more experiments tomorrow, let the pillow github know and share my amended file for those people who want to test it.

(its a bit late tonight)

Here is an amended shared components for my skins.
This should fix compressed picon pngs not showing on the latest 3.9.5 python builds and below.

firstly, the epg mod and movie planner mods overwrite core files on your box.
The ipks were only provided as ease of install.
They are not meant to be uninstalled ;) because doing so removes these core files.

Uninstalling them would mean you would have to visit your image providers github and re-download the original files

I did test this mod on openatv 7.0 with no issues. I will recheck. But your log doesn't really say what the issue is.

The MovieSelection.py in my mod had very little changed.
Download the original file
https://raw.githubusercontent.…Screens/MovieSelection.py

and test your directories... then...

find this line

config.movielist.useextlist = ConfigSelection(default='0', choices={'0': _('No'), '1': _('ServiceName'), '2': _('ServicePicon')})

and change it to

config.movielist.useextlist = ConfigSelection(default='0', choices={'0': _('No'), '1': _('Sky Planner'), '2': _('Slyk Q Planner'), '3': _('Slyk Onyx Planner'), '4': _('VSkin Planner')})

Thats all I think you need to change in their original file.

*solution above for openatv 7.0 only. Not other openatv versions or images.

if the issue is actually in MovieList.py then thats a bigger issue.
