RE: GTV - Gi0vann1 - 2021-04-11
I have a question about my TMDB grade assignor, when I use a library from a single disc and scanned by kodi, the ratings are displayed but when I use an Emby library I have nothing even if it's enabled on the Emby application. it may not be related to the skin but I wanted your opinion Thanks

I like new widgets, its more looking like Google.TV. Would you fixed main menu to be fixed when selecting over Movies and Shows, at the moment everything moves left and right in main menu.
RE: GTV - zeroq - 2021-04-12
Would you be able to implement this when browsing genres and years.

@roidy
Installed alpha 0.1.0 release and apart from the previously discussed unavailability of creating an addon widget, implementation of skin shortcuts hasn't produced any problems for me so far.
Default library view is set to landscape row and if you scroll or select a movie/tv show that has a really long title eg. Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) the title shudders constantly until focus is shifted away. Font size and weight is different to that used when poster row is selected as viewtype. What I did to offset that visual effect for long titles is to change viewtype to poster row when selecting that item then revert to landscape. The title for only the selected item changes to font used for poster viewtype, default font for landscape view remains intact for everything else. Not sure if this is intended.
I realise this is still WIP, as part of its development will an alphabet strip be added? When only viewtype available is row, scrolling through large library is inefficient.
I've never used Netflix, Disney +, HBO Max but have seen their layouts. On my ATV 4K I have installed Plex, MrMMC, Emby, Infuse and of course KODI. KODI's powerbase that sets it apart from other media apps is smart playlists, custom widgets, IPTV, and integrating video addons, my impression of GTV is that KODI has a skin that can compete with other streaming and media player apps in terms of aesthetics, ease of use, setup and function.
Well done.

This is insanely beautiful !! Thank you so much for this update. But I would like to know the possibility of extra fanart .. That is, it is in the tab for you where the fan art is visible .. I don’t know if this is possible, but if possible please add this possibility .. Thank you very much again for this update! It looks really cool!)
RE: GTV - Aaiemron - 2021-04-12
Again, really nice work.
Can you please add the autocloseOSD function?
Another question: is it possible to add a favourite as a widget?
Thanks

I'm not sure, I don't use or have an emby library, I'm not even sure what an emby library is

Sure, you just need to create a resource.language.fr_FR folder in the language folder and copy the string.po file from resource.language.en_Gb in to the new folder then edit and change line 16 to fr_FR
Then for every entry block:-
msgctxt "#31414"
msgid "For you"
msgstr ""
Put the french translation in the msgstr "", don't change the msgid, leave that as English

Would you fixed main menu to be fixed when selecting over Movies and Shows, at the moment everything moves left and right in main menu.I'll look into it but fixed menus that are offset like the GTV one look strange when you have too many items and they overflow off the right of the screen, once you scroll to the right the left most items just disappear into nothing and it just looks wrong, I've yet to find a good way to implement it.

Sorry I don't have a Shield so I can't tell you how to get access to files on it
Can you not SSH into it?
I'm sure there must be information somewhere on the internet on how to access files on a Shield.

Thanks, yep, I'm aware of the long title flicker bug

No it part of the same bug, what should happen is if the title is too long to fit on the screen it should use the smaller font.

Yep that can be added

Thanks but I can't take credit for the design it's basically the new Chromecast with GoogleTV interface in Kodi.

Yes! Thank you for fixing the play/pause icons. And nice that you will add the autocloseOSD function.
