Channel Selection screen progress bar bug

Post by prl » Fri Oct 16, 2020 17:04

Once the progress bar for the in-focus channel in the Channel Selection screen (FAV from live TV) has reached about 85% of the way through the program, it stops moving. Have a look at the progress bar for, say, a 60-minute program that's in the last minute or two of its run time. It the progress bar will not reflect how close the program is to completing. The small per-channel progress bars aren't affected by this problem.

The reason is that the progress bar is 355px wide, but the pixmap used to display progress is only 300px wide (about 85% of the bar width).

It's been a minor niggle for ages: I only just got around to having a proper look at it.

I have a fix ready. Peteru: I'm adding a correctly-sized pixmap: do I need to add its name to a Makefile.am anywhere? I couldn't find one anywhere in the skin repositories.

The skins do not use Makefiles. There are no build steps. All content is either binary images, xml or Python source code. The package is architecture agnostic, hence the "all" in the package name.

i.e. Just adding the file should be enough.
