I've been looking at the new Twin driver behaviour just to see wtf is going on when designing a skin...

When the Twin receives a 544 x 576i25 4:3 broadcast, the twin skin shows 4:3 as it's the base icon image
(in other words, it doesn't overlay the 16:9 or HD icons which is correct)

ALL outputs however are stuck in 16:9 mode (scart pin8 should = 12v [it's 6v] and HDMI should = pillarbox [its 16:9])
[& yes "WSS on 4:3" was disabled, "Aspect" was on auto and "Display 4:3 as Pillarbox" was set]

Move to a 544/720 x 576i25 16:9 broadcast and nothing changes. (the Twin is stuck in 16:9 mode remember)
[post#7 in the new 4D thread is wrong, it's the skin that's stuck in 4:3 mode]

Obviously, the 16:9 icon should replace the 4:3 icon here (but it doesn't)

The following skin code does nothing:
Code:
You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.

When moving to an 1920x1080i25 HD broadcast, the HD icon fails to show either :(
Again, the following code does jack:
Code:
You don't have permission to view the code content. Log in or register now.

I don't think the problem lies with the ServiceInfo.pyo as things like isCrypted and HasTelext work ok :?

Has anyone found a skin that has a working 16:9 and/or HD icon?
[does anybody have another pyo or skin.xml that works]

The service info menu correctly shows 4:3 or 16:9, but the Twin is unable to control the skin or the outputs to match :(

Maybe TM will read this and sort it, but then again, maybe I'll win the lottery tonight lol
