I have mythtv .17 and installed the mythtivo plugin. I am using the classic view for my menus and can not get the tivo button to show up anywhere. I used to be able to do it with mythtv 15, but I guess since the layout had some reworking I am having trouble. Here is a snip of the relevant part of the howto file I've put together with the help of a friend, its not finished yet, but when it is I'l be willing to post it for anyone else who wants to access their tivo recordings thru myth. Changes have been made, initially the offset in buttondef was 60, 20 pasted into the theme.xml also initially I was putting the button in mainmenu.xml but have tried tvmenu.xml
any help would be appreciated, John
