Do you know a way to add a "c" in the infoline for movies that have a collection? pretty sure this is possible on Kodi, any ideas?
Hi @Rinicko100 !!
How have you been? It's been a while haha! Hope you're doing well!
Yes that's absolutely possible!
Add the following code below the <!-- End Time --> section in the Includes_Info.xml file (here) to have the 'C' tag after the end time info .
Code:
<!-- Belongs ta a Collection -->
<include content="Info_Line_Item">
<include content="Info_Line_Visible_01">
<param name="container">$PARAM[container]</param>
<param name="dbtype_01">movie</param>
</include>
<param name="label">C</param>
<param name="visible">[!String.IsEmpty($PARAM[container]ListItem.Set) | !String.IsEmpty(Container(99950).ListItem.Set)]</param>

Worked perfectly 👌👌... changed it to set so I don't get confused
RE: Arctic Fuse - Andromeda9182 - 2024-10-02
@Officer KD6-3.7 I wouldn't dare ruin this skin with ComicSans. Scared I'll get a cease and desist letter from jurialmunkey
When I saw your screenshots, I noticed that ProductSans bold is actually different than mine. I checked and turns out I forgot to copy the font files to the skin folder in addition to Kodi/media folder. Now, it looks perfect! I even got greedy and set Kodi's GUI limit to unlimited instead of 1080p.
Will I have to copy the fonts again to the skin folder when it gets updated? Or just the xmls?
Title fonts and plot text scroll also work as they should. You're definitely right about how adding more lines to the plot text would make the layout cluttered, specially with a 2-lines title.
I couldn't get the seasons tag to work at first, so I went to your github and noticed that the code was different. Copied it and also no luck. And then it took me 10 minutes to realize that I was copying the modified xml to AH2 folder, not AF
.I really can't thank you enough. Everything (for now at least hehe) looks and behaves as I would like. Can't also forget to that jurialmunkey for his excellent skins over those years!
Now I should start to actually use Kodi and enjoy my setup
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just now I realized that I basically never look at the resolution/video type info tag, and it's the most prominent tag in the info line due to its white box. Imo, genres should be the one that stands out. I feel like when you're browsing, you wanna quickly check the genre. Having the genres be in a white box would make it easier to glance at.
So I went ahead and tried to do it myself. To remove resolution tags, I commented lines 1061-1163 and that seemed to work. But now, stuff that originally used INFO tag have an empty space where it used to be. WEB stuff don't have that problem.
Next, I tried to make the genres tag use a white box like the resolution tag. I thought it would be as easy as changing text colors but apparently it's not. This is the part responsible for the resolution white box, right? I couldn't understand how to make the genres section behave the same way. And it seems that I also would need to make the width size dynamic or something?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One more thing that I would love to see is more than one genre in the genres tag, but that would probably make the info line too long.
In Nimbus, ivarbrandt cleverly solved that by simply making his own variables that combine two or three genres together (for exmaple Dramedy, Rom-Com). I have no idea though how to implement that in AF.
I'm really sorry that I'm bothering you too much. Feel free to just ignore me
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And last but not least, here is my setup
https://streamable.com/7jyxob
(Just noticed now that the 2-lines titles are messed up. I don't believe this is a problem with your code but rather a bug from before that. You can see in 0:11 that the single-line long title is not even autscrolling. This used to happen before I made any changes, but simply reloading the skin would fix it. Not sure how I can capture a log of that to report it, as I can't figure out how to trigger it)
- Continue Watching widget is from Skin Variables, combining trakt in-progress movies and next episodes.
- Recommended and Based on Recently Watched widgets are from couchmoney.tv, which is basically a much better trakt recommendation engine. I highly recommend you use it if you're not already. You just need to make it a habit to rate whatever you watch on trakt. This makes the algo work best, according to couchmoney dev.
- You can see how I have the widget labels in italic, with colored sections at the beginning. This, in my experience, makes it easy to quickly see what I'm scrolling through.
- I also did this thing where I changed the action of main menu items to just "right". This just emulates pressing right on the remote. I think this is more intuitive than having them point to an addon or library path. It's also consistent with how many TV apps are designed. And it's not like we don't have enough options to make shortcuts/widgets for whatever we need anyway
That's basically it! I like to keep it minimal and consistent as much as I can. As you know, it's very easy to make Kodi cluttered and confusing, specially with the endless possibilities we have with AF.
I want to also create a separate profile where I just go crazy and use AF to its full potential. But my Shield Pro mostly likely wouldn't be able to handle it. I can't believe that to this day, we still don't have a more powerful, fully featured ATV-certified box.
How is your AM6B+ btw? You said that you use it with a projector, so I assume you just use CoreELEC? Any quirks or weird bugs?

Let me know if that works!
Yeah i have this ones active, but as you said, they don´t are the exact chanel whos is reproducing the show.
Ok i´m locking for something like this, but my programming skills are very limited, i'm just start learning how to code recently, so i don´t have any idea how can i do that.

@Officer KD6-3.7Hello, Here are some prints of the modifications to my KODI, it looks incredibly beautiful. Thank you very much for leaving many tips here on the forum, I'm from Brazil and the experience I'm using with arctic fuse is above the level of all skins. Thank you

I'd like to leave my tags with a white background like this. I think it's the same thing the friend in the previous post wants to do.

If you are making a mod, please make a separate thread.
Also note that distributing ProductSans is not permitted by the terms of Google's license and is entirely incompatible with Arctic Fuse's CC BY SA license (and against the rules of the forum to distribute here as you're breaking copyright).
I'd appreciate that the distribution not be associated with me. Making mods are fine, but it is important that you abide by the rules of my license and also the forum rules.
Finally, please make sure your mod has its own unique addon ID so that it does not conflict with the original skin.

I was using the term 'mods' very loosely. I don't currently wish to make a separate addon, but wanted to provide a link to the 'modified' xml files for users that wanted a similar looking setup.
I usually just post how to make the changes here (which are pretty trivial, like changing fonts, icons, adding a new tag in the info line, etc.) but I noticed some users are not comfortable with editing the code themselves and would rather have the modified XML file to place in the skin folder. It's essentially just a few XML files (mostly Font.xml, Includes_Info, etc.) so I could've just shared a download link to a ZIP with only those, or maybe even simple Pastebin links, but I thought having a branch on GitHub would be smarter (it's not, but hindsight is always 20/20).
I now realize I might've bit more than I could chew, so I think I'll take down the fork (or just make it private).
I think most users understand that some 'Feature Requests' are too niche (and would be conflicting with the overall aesthetic of AF) so they would rather know how to edit the XML file than start a discussion over at GitHub. Am I still allowed to post instructions on how to modify those files when someone asks for a specific change here?
I wanted to take the time and clear up all the misunderstanding. You've been nothing but super open and welcoming towards me since I first started posting here and on GitHub. The last thing I would want is for you to feel slighted because of me.
Extremely sorry about everything. I get overzealous so quickly and overlook a lot of the minutiae. I should've been more cautious and I will make sure this doesn't happen again.
Thank you for everything J, I hope you can forgive me for this.
RE: Arctic Fuse - Rf67 - 2024-10-03
Hello. From your screenshots you are Portuguese or Brazilian. I did you manage to put the skin and the information and covers to appear in Portuguese? I put everything on my Kodi as Portuguese from Brazil(I'm from Portugal) and every thing inside arctic fuse comes in English. Could it be because I'm on a nightly version of Kodi 22? Many thanks. Rui

Tens que mudar a lingua no addon "TMDHelper"
RE: Arctic Fuse - xavengedx - 2024-10-04
You have to go to the TMDB Helper settings and select the language you want, insert the API keys and check all the options below the fanart.tv API, so you'll have all the thumbnails in the language you want, or rather almost all of them hahaha
RE: Arctic Fuse - Rf67 - 2024-10-05
Yeah, I figured it out. My setup is made only of [mod edit banned add-on indicated] widgets. No worries about it. Thanks for the answer.
