Thank you in advance!
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Jo3y - 2015-10-17
This skin is breathtakingly beautiful - hands down the cleanest and best one of all. I sometimes just open Kodi and stare at it lmao!
Just a few questions;
Some of my tv-shows have tv tunes, but i've added new ones recently and when I go into tv-show information there's no tv tunes dialog/action to download tv tunes for shows it seems?
Also, will cd-art be supported? Would love to have that moving cd-art when i'm playing music
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Knight77 - 2015-10-17
Is there a way to show the Rotten Tomatoes icons for the score? Like this...
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Johnotherise - 2015-10-17
Help, done a search but not finding anything to assist me.
Using a movies widget on home screen but it only displays first 10 items, how can I get it to keep scrolling through more items as I move right. I was sure this skin used to do it
Cheers

It's fine, thank you !
I have a copy of my kodi database on my laptop to put it to replace the one present in my HTPC !
It seems to me that this problem has always appeared to me when I install manually Artic Zephyr...
Ha and I apologize for my english
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - dr.joaomarcelo - 2015-10-18
Hi there,
Last night i had a couple of friends at my house and i always like to let kodi playing my music videos collection and i realized that artic skin doesn't have a button to randomize the videos, although it has for music. In the end i had to use yatse to hit random for the playlist.
So could you please add a random button somewhere for videos? Maybe together with a playlist button that it's also missing?
Thanks

RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Knight77 - 2015-10-19
Yes it is! But looks like the skinner has to implement it:
http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=136873
I searched the documentation a bit and, unfortunately, I've seen that it's not possible to use this field as is in a skin, but only together with rating. So I thought that, since some work was to be done on the skin part, I could store even more information in that field. For the time being I've come up with:
- audience score (either tomatometer or average, according to the selection in the options)
- a flag indicating if critics score is rotten, fresh or certified fresh
- a flag indicating if audience score is "spilled" or "popcorn"
This information is stored in the following string:
aAAAtTpP
where "a" is fixed (just to be able to recognize it's audience score), "AAA" is the audience score, "t" is fixed, "T" is 0 for rotten, 1 for fresh, 2 for certified fresh, "p" is fixed, "P" is 0 for spilled and 1 for popcorn
Obviously now it's up to skinners to use this information in a useful way. I tried to put them in a way that allows them to be handled, but I'm not an expert in skinning, so I'm open to options.
SKIN (only for Eden, I will start working on a version for Frodo as soon as Frodo bocomes final):
I've been working on a personal modification of the wonderful reFocus BIG in order to integrate Rotten Tomatoes scores at a visual level (see screenshot above for an example). I've finally reached a point where modifications are pretty much how I like them, so I thought I might share that as well.
Instructions:
- Go over to this thread and download the complete skin
- Install the skin
- Download my mod here
- Extract the files and copy them over to the skin folder (overwrite as requested). As usual, make a backup copy of the original files. In my package, I've included reworked sound effects so that they play at a normal level on my machine. This may not be the case on yours, so try them out if you want, and choose those which you feel more comfortable with.
- Launch XBMC, load reFocus BIG, customize the skin to your tastes
- To enable Rotten Tomatoes scores, go in skin settings --> View settings and enable "Show ratings like on Rotten Tomatoes"
- If you scraped your movies with the special encoding enabled (in order to scrape both critics and audience scores), enable "Show also audience using special encoding". This will give you 2 visible scores and the certified fresh icon (if the movie is certified fresh, that is)
Some info:
- Rotten Tomatoes scores are visible in all movie views, as well as in OSDs when playing movies. In all other views (TV series, music...) the usual star system is in place. I can't certify it will work 100% of times, but on my system it works like a charm
- Some views that can have mixed content like "now playing", will not show Rotten Tomatoes scores, even if they include movies. I haven't found a way to show the proper scores only on movies in this case
- When viewing search results, if Rotten Tomatoes scores are active, the score shown is the critics score, in percentage
- There are some other tweaks to the GUI compared to reFocus BIG, pretty much to align it to my tastes
- I don't take credit for the skin, just for the Rotten Tomatoes part. So if you like the skin, go over the proper thread and drop a thank you, or rate it =)
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Deihmos - 2015-10-21
According to this site http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:PleXBMC the skin works with Plexbmc but I don't see it. Where is the Plexbmc support?

Now I have such resolution and the cover is cut off on the left and right side.

Sorry... I was in holidays
I am using 720p and tried also 1080i.
On my TV I am using 16:9, but tried also any other option.
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - jdoo - 2015-10-23
Any chance we'll ever see some fuller support for Advance Launcher views? Absolutely loving this skin, nothing else even comes close. IMO it should be the default skin for Kodi
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - dyslecix - 2015-10-24
How do I create a widget for a custom menu that I made "Video Addons," so that I can scroll through my add-ons directly on the right side of this custom home menu, instead of having to click it? I believe this is done with Custom Widgets, but I have no idea how to set it up!

Me again... please see my screenshot. I have only 1920 x 1200 (!?) How can I change this?

RE: Arctic: Zephyr - dyslecix - 2015-10-24
Also, is there anyway to make what's playing to appear in the background, while navigating the menus? or is this not an option?
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - DerekCuster - 2015-10-25
Quick question...
I'm moving from Artic to Zephyr and want it to bravery as close to artic as possible. However, I can't seem to disable fan art when pressing "up" to view the widget.
For example, I don't ever want the cloud picture to ever change, ever, under any circumstances. But even with fan art disabled, and widgets set to "none" and to only appear when pressing "up" when the widget loads, it automatically loads the fanart too. I'd rather it didn't and no fan art was loaded at any point.
Artic worked this way, so the home screen was always a white screen, then I could press "up" and navigate through my recent movies, spotlight etc by pressing "up" continuously, but it never loaded fan art only the posters.
As I don't have fan art for all my movies, I'd rather have a clean, fast, consistent interface, is this possible with zephyr?
Cheers
