EDIT: @Cyberdom , I have found the issue.  I had forgotten about just pressing Info when viewing a video.  The fix will be in the next skin update.

I just jumped over to the default skin to see how it was handling tags. It is incorrectly displaying an 8K tag for 4:3 (1.33:1) 4k (3840x2880) movies and TV. But shows the correct tag if it is a full-width screen, like 1.77:1 or other widescreen formats.

Not sure what forum to post this observation in exactly, but I'll find it.

Thank you @bsoriano.

Just a heads-up to all of you, I will not be uploading any new Leia versions of Amber for a while.  I will be concentrating on getting the Matrix version up to date with all of the skinning changes and Matrix new features.

However, if you find a bug, by all means let me know, and I will fix and release an update for Leia.

Thank you all for your continued support and understanding.

One thing I've noticed in Matrix is that the artwork for Movie Sets is not pulling through automatically, Test build of course but Movie Sets plugin and Artwork Beef are not in Matrix, so not sure if related. I can manually add them in but takes time. I've set the artwork folder in the settings for Movie Sets as well.

SORTED now : https://kodi.wiki/view/Movie_sets_artwork

@zorg2000k, I am glad it is sorted now. I had to rename a lot of my movie set artwork for it to show up in Matrix, since the short naming form is used for local movie set artwork.

I have uploaded versions 3.2.109 (Leia) and 3.3.109 (Matrix) to GitHub and the Amber repos.

There is no new functionality in this version, just a few bug fixes:

2.  Fix for media flags when pressing info in full screen video.   Before, different media flags were showing when you pressed Info while viewing full screen video, vs the ones that were showing when the OSD was showing.  This has been fixed.

I've read through this post and I'm hoping I have things set correctly, just can't get it to rotate in view, I've taken a few screenshots to show you my settings. I can get the extrafanart to rotate in the background fine with "Show Fanart background on sub windows" set to Yes.

PC folder structure - tried both



This is the artwork I would expect to rotate highlighted in Red;


Within Kodi I can see the extrafanart as per this screen;


And finally here is my Amber settings;


Hoping I've not missed a setting somewhere and you could investigate, 

Thanks Zorg

Edit: Tested on another skin and my extrafanart does work fine with my folder structure.

@zorg2000k , thanks for your feedback.  In Fanart view, the fanart shown in the info panel does not change/rotate.  The fanart in the background of the view is the one that rotates if you have extrafanart.  For me, extrafanart is working in Matrix given the following:

1. I have all of the extrafanart in the same folder as the movie
2. I have set the Artowrk Level setting in Kodi (Media Settings, Video, Artwork Level) to Maximum (it picks up all local art this way).
3. Like your screenshot, set to Yes the Amber settings "Show fanart background on sub windows" and "Show extrafanart if available".

Regards,

Bart

Thanks for clarifying this : In Fanart view, the fanart shown in the info panel does not change/rotate.  

Is that something that could be added or are you not wanting this as an option ? I personally prefer a static background fanart and for the info panel fanart to change / rotate. Would be nice across movies / tv shows and music

Cheers Zorg
