Hi Zag,

Due to the big help by curswine & smudgie by adding amazing designs for event thumbs, I think that it was time to make an update at TV channel pages showing all this effort:



On this new design, now you can see all the schedule will see all the scheduled events shorted by UTC time with a look similar to the one we currently have on the user profile.

Also I have added a "Now live" section, where you can easily find which event/s are currently playing (based on the same info which it's highlighted on the calendar page with an arrow) and displaying its description (now while I'm adding TV info, also I'm trying to add a short description when available).

At the end of the page, you can also find others channels from the same country that also have events scheduled shorted from most to less.

Hope you all liked!

Yes love it thanks for the work.

This is something I have wanted to do for a while as the current TV page is much too big. I will take a look very soon

Does it need a new artwork type for TV channel banners?

you can add a new "TV channel banner" art or you can remove it and place the TV channel icon on the middle of the page

Updated again to group the events into one and list the channels below. I think it looks much better now.

Amazing job!

BTW, I have tested it and found some bugs:

- while clicking on TV icons at event page and/or front page, it returns a 404 error: File or directory not found as they're still link it as "/tv.php?c=" in the URL instead of "/channel/"
- once you upload a banner, you also get a 404 error page (image is uploaded OK)
- if you edit a channel name and/or country, you also get a 404 error page and info is not updated
- Netherlands page is empty. Maybe because it's searching for "The Netherlands" name, but dutch channels are named without the "The" at the begining

Also, as a suggestion, on the TV main page, I should move the country filters and popular channels filter up to the top and we'll gain all the left space to add a forth column for the events

Hopefully fixed all the bugs and missing pages now.

Also had a rejig of the flags and popular channels.

I think it needs to remain 3 wide to work on mobile as the channel names can be quite big sometimes.

Zag, if it's possible, can be the banners be uploaded at 1500x500 px, please? Current proportions are too low in high and all official banners that I found look weird trying to fit them on the current 1000 x 185

TY!
