Hey,

any way to remove the red zone? It is usually intended for the kodi icon but for me it has no use.

Thank you very much

0- download and install Matrix version of themoviedatabase helper from jurialunkey's github (you may also need to make sure you have a Matrix version of script.skinshortcuts - I can't remember if that's in the Matrix repo yet).
1- download the zip from the master branch of Arctic Horizon on github.
2- unzip it
3- edit the addon.xml file and change the line that has addon="xbmc.gui" version="5.14.0" to version="5.15.0"
4- also change the version in the first line of addon.xml so that the version adds +matrix.1 to the end (this makes sure the Leia version in the repo doesn't over write this one)
5- rezip the folder
6- install in Matrix using install from zip

I've been doing this for quite awhile, and the skin does seem to work. It doesn't have any of the newer Matrix skin features, but nothing breaks from what I can see.

Is there any chance someone could share their installable zip file AFTER the changes to make it compatible with Matrix?  For some reason, when I re-zip the folder after making the changes, Kodi will not install the skin.  It keeps failing and complaining about invalid file structure.  I've tried on both Mac and Windows with no success.
I had this

Male sure you create the zip with a root folder first, and then ensure you soon contents is within that root folder

skin.arctic.horizon.master ->

1080i
colors
.
.
.
.
add-on.xml

Etc

I got the answer in another thread specifically about Kodi on Apple TV....

I needed to force the SMB client in Kodi System Settings to use SMB v1 for both the min and max versions. Now I can use my native MacBook SMB share.

Has a conscious decision been made to end support for Up Next addon? 

I get a "Playlist: can't find a next item to play" error when I attempt to use it.  Has been occurring for months now.

Nope, the problem lies with the addon. They made a bunch of changes which broke numerous features. I'd suggest having a read through the Up Next thread. The error you are seeing is not coming from the skin.

@jurialmunkey do you know of a way to get the proper aspect ration media flags to display? Every movie says 1.78.1 which is not correct. This issue existed in arctic zephyr 2 as well.

For me it works correctly, I see AR other than 1.78.1. I'm pretty sure the aspect will come from what the file is reporting, so if black bars are incorporated into the file this will affect what you see in the AR field.

Yeah you are right, it's the file's fault. There is only 1 movie that is correctly displaying as 2:40:1 and that's because in mediainfo the AR is listed as 2:40:1. Every other movie, according to mediainfo, the AR is just 16:9 which is the same as 1:78:1. Question is, is this possible to fix? I'm guessing no, at least not in any efficient, bulk way because I have nearly 200 movies in my collection.

As I remember you can do it by adding the desired aspect ratio to the NFO files, this might help with the tags https://kodi.wiki/view/NFO_files/Movies#nfo_Tags

I had the same thought but apparently I would have to re-scrape every movie in my library which wouldn't be a problem except I use specific custom posters for each movie so it would take forever to change each movie's poster one at a time.

RE: Arctic Horizon - piercedfreak - 2021-02-04

Is there an easy way to disable the random titles for the background image? I want to set a static image for my background.


RE: Arctic Horizon - Mahava - 2021-02-04

So I tried out this skin a few months ago and reported here that I couldn't get it to load and stabilize no matter what I did.   Just tried it again and it loads up fine and seems to be working without major hitches.  Can't say what did the trick since there's been a Win 10 update, multiple Nvidia and Intel driver updates and even a bios/firmware update on my PC.  Also I think mouse support was stripped out of the skin and there were updates to it and to TMDB helper.

Anyway...so far seems to be working fine.


RE: Arctic Horizon - nikhil48 - 2021-02-05

Let me just start by saying, this skin is amazing. I wouldn't change a thing... (and now I will proceed to ask if one of the things can be changed lol)

Whenever I click on a movie through TMDB helper, in Arctic Zephyr, it gives good info, similar movies etc. and the list seems organic. However in Arctic Horizon, there is no similar movies list, and there is only a list of movies from that year and it is alphabetical. Can it have the same content as it is on AZ?


RE: Arctic Horizon - comeonpilgrim - 2021-02-06

Favourites Widget?

I've added Favourites as an item in the Home Menu but I can't figure out how to add a Favourites Widget to show the favourited items. Has it not been added yet? Thanks, I really love the customization features available in this skin!
