Change Guide Type Colors?

[Jack_PVR]

I see in the properties file one can change the guide colors for movies etc.

Whats the default color, I'd like to set some of the types not to be color coded.

Movies = purple
Sports = green
News = brown

Sorry if I was not clear...

I want to change those colors to the default color by editing the properties file.

Whats the RGB code for the default blue color, I'd like to have all listings that same color?

Those are the ones I want to change to the default blue color.


Whats the default blue color values?

I asked about the default values forever ago, but didn't get any answers. From my own experimentation, the Sage.properties values "epg/category_colors/<category>" values are the colors you can change for when they are highlighted. You can't change the pre-programmed default colors for the non-highlighted ones. It seems to be some mathematical resolution from the highlighted color, but I never figured out the formula used to create it.

jack, I will lookup the default color for you when I get home.

highlighted OSD is 30,30,156 other then I think there Tran mode which I do belive you need wait for SageTV Studio

Jack,

Looking in Studio I don't think it even uses those lines from the properties file any more.

Thanks for looking,
guess there is no way currently to turn off the color coding in the guide.
