I often click it to discover new movies. The problem is, when I see an interesting movie in a list, I click to view trailer. When the tailer concludes or if i stop the trailer, AH goes back to the lists but they refresh so the original list that I was interested in is gone. If I didn't pay attention to the name of the movie/trailer I can't find it.

Hope I explained it clearly.

Yeah, this annoys me too! Kodi forces a refresh of all containers once playback ends - so unfortunately nothing that can be done from the skin side of things.

You could maybe use a random seed that changes less frequently? There's a possibility of this happening still, but it might make that a little less common.

There's no scripting in the Trending Lists window (id 1139) - the randomisation is all handled skin side. There's a base "list of lists" that has Kodi's in-built "random" sort method applied, then I use $INFO[ListItem(0-9).FolderPath] as the content paths for each of the lists shown. So it's random every time because Kodi reapplies the sort method every time the container updates.

Of course I could script some sort of half measure that tries to hack it's way around the issue, but really what's needed is some type of skinning engine flag that tells Kodi that the container shouldn't refresh after playback ends.

In Aura you have the path for the movie in dialogvideoinfo. Is there a place where you can include this information with out it changing your layout drastically?

thanks

Ah, I thought he was referring to the "Random Trending List" section Big Grin My bad!

You should be able to browse to the node in your library, open the context menu, and choose "Add to AutoWidget Group".

Also, I plan on updating the repo this afternoon Smile

EDIT: Done Big Grin

@jurialmunkey Someone opened an issue regarding profile/skin logo on the horizontal menu, but would it be possible to get an "icon only" mode up there?

Added icon only mode on latest git version. Also reduced the rounding so the style better matches with the rest of the skin.

Ha! I was going to suggest that but didn't want to be critical. Great job JM! 👍


RE: Arctic Horizon - Blurayx - 2020-08-19

Just a heads up. jurialmunkey has added a new feature "Watched progress colour" This is is great for those who like a more cohesive look to match their colour scheme. 

Skin Settings > Items and Views > Watched Indicators > Watched progress colour

Looking very nice! I also really like the color picker for watched indicators Big Grin


RE: Arctic Horizon - FXB78 - 2020-08-19

With the new Horizontal icon only view, could the width be adjusted & centered based on the number of icons? Currently there is a gap to the right which looks a bit imbalanced. Also, could the Kodi logo be seperated from the other buttons, either by a seperator or perhaps a grey overlay to make it look less like a regular button?

So instead of looking like this:

It would be more like this:
