No doubt they'll get used to the new setup and as I learn what all the new whizzbang features are they'll come to love A:Z2 as much as I do.

Yea. Hopefully. It's really good. But different looking. Smile

Will there be an update in the future that will allow the basic layout with the ability to add multiple widgets to the submenu/hub?

If not will there be an update that will let users sort their submenu widget by category like how you can sort your regular widgets?

since last update, now playing in the footer for music tracks has vanished, got it checked in skin options but not appearing

Loving this skin, thanks for all your hard work.

This may have been asked before but would it be possible to include a way for the OSD to disappear when paused?
Sometimes I want to take a photo of the screen and don't want the OSD in the way.

Any plans on making the Playback UI as sexy as the skin?  Undecided

You already can add multiple widgets to the submenu hub. You can add a different widget for each submenu item.

Yes, sorting options will be coming soon.

I have been using Zephyr 2 since Day 1 and I absolutely love it. Still trying to find out how to use all the features it has Smile

4 Questions where I need guidance:

1) Is PVR artwork already supported by your skin? It seems PVR artwork is downloaded, however it is not displayed anywhere in my setup.
2) For widgets it is possible to define sort method, sort direction and item limit - is it possible to add this for the submenu hub widget, too?
3) Any chance to add an EPG widget for Zephyr2 in any way? Or a widget to support channel groups?
4) Is it possible to show "number of movies / TV shows" and additional info (e.g. playtime etc) next to the other furniture items?

thanks for your outstanding work

@jurialmunkey any thoughts on those topics?

1. No there isn't pvr artwork anywhere
2. I answered this a few posts above
3. I don't know what you mean by "epg widget". There are some pvr channel widgets in default widgets.
4. No, not currently.

@jurialmunkey Any thoughts on this? Basically a similar setting to the auto close OSD that can be settable in secs would be great.

If there is some other way to do this please let me know? I looked on Google and couldn't seem to find a solution. The only thing that came up was someone removed the OSD altogether which is not ideal as it is useful.

Thanks

I don't hate it. Honestly speaking, this Skin is way better than YouTube. But removing Stop and Skip Forward/Backward buttons, just like youtube did, can help simplify the Platback User Interface a lot! We can Press Back to Stop and Press Left/Right to Skip Forward/Backward.

Not if you're using a mouse...

I've tried doing this in the past with other skins, but there isn't really a way to do it that doesn't cause other problems.
