How to Use the OSD Skin Editor for DVBViewer Pro 3.9.x+ The On-Screen Display (OSD) Skin Editor is a powerful tool that lets you customize the visual interface of DVBViewer Pro 3.9.x and newer versions. By modifying skins, you can change how menus, guide overlays, and media controls look on your screen. Getting Started Prerequisites DVBViewer Pro: Version 3.9.x or higher installed.
OSD Skin Editor: Download the standalone editor tool from the official DVBViewer members section.
Skin Files: Located in your DVBViewer installation directory under the \Skins</code> folder. Opening a Skin Launch the OSD Skin Editor. Click File > Open. Navigate to your DVBViewer \Skins</code> directory.
Select the .xml file of the skin you wish to edit (e.g., mySkin.xml). Editor Interface Overview The editor layout is divided into three primary zones:
Object Tree: Displays the hierarchical structure of all visual elements (windows, buttons, text fields) in the skin.
Workspace: The central canvas where you visually position, resize, and arrange your design elements.
Properties Panel: Displays attributes of the selected element, such as coordinates, color codes, images, and font styles. Core Editing Steps 1. Modifying Layout and Coordinates To change the position or size of an element:
Select the item in the Object Tree or click it directly in the Workspace.
Use the Properties Panel to manually input precise Left, Top, Width, and Height pixel values.
Alternatively, drag the element borders in the Workspace to resize visually. 2. Changing Images and Backgrounds
Skins rely on bitmap (.bmp) or PNG files for their visual style.
Locate the graphic files inside the specific skin’s subfolder.
In the editor properties, link your graphic elements to these image files.
Ensure transparency settings match your graphic format for clean edges. 3. Assigning Control IDs
Control IDs tell DVBViewer what actions or data belong to a specific visual box.
Every text label or button requires a specific Control ID to function.
Example: ID 1 typically handles the main window status, while other specific IDs pull EPG data.
Refer to the official DVBViewer Skin SDK documentation for the complete Control ID reference list. Saving and Testing Your Skin Click File > Save in the editor. Open DVBViewer Pro. Go to Settings > Options > OSD Skins. Select your modified skin from the list. Click Apply to view your changes live.
