I have uploaded versions 3.2.125 (Leia) and 3.4.12 (Matrix) to GitHub and the Amber repos.  The only new fucntionality is the following:

Hi @bsoriano, I just noticed a bug with the display of the seek bar when paused on the videos.
I am using Amber 3.2.128 under Kodi Leia and even selecting "Yes" for "Hide seek bar when paused", the seek bar remains displayed after 5 seconds.

I just noticed this issue this morning while browsing my library. I've attached an image to show you the doubling of the next airing episode.

@Cyberdom , this is the intended behavior.  The seek bar will hide after 5 seconds when paused.  If the option is not enabled (hide seek bar when paused), then the seek bar will be shown the whole time the video is paused.

Just noticed this when scrolling around the collection. Maybe its something we just have to live with...

If I use Page skipping (not sure the term you would use), it seems to skip over to far.
Can you fix it so there is an overlap? not sure how everyone would want to see it - personally I like how the shows are cut in half on each end. But if we don't really notice that half image on one side, we don't get to see it again. I know I have skipped over shows I thought I had, and now realize that this may be the reason.



Notice "Fringe" on the right, if I Skip to the next page, it jumps to the "Ghost Whisperer" item, and now cuts off the show on the Left.


"From the Earth to the Moon" cut off after 1 page skip to the Right - but "Fringe" has been totally skipped.


Scrolled left-wards show-by-show.


Thank you.

@bsoriano, the problem is that by activating the "Hide seek bar when paused" function, the seek bar remains displayed after 5 seconds whereas it should be hidden after 5 seconds.

@Cyberdom , you are in Leia, correct? If so, yes, there is some strange behavior in Leia for one of the conditions I have for showing the seek bar.  I had not noticed since in Matrix it works well.  I just pushed a workaround to GitHub.  If you do not wish to update from GitHub, please wait a few days and I will include this fix in the next version for Leia in the Amber repo.  Thanks.

Bart

I have uploaded versions 3.2.127 (Leia) and 3.4.14 (Matrix) to GitHub and the Amber repos.  After this version, all new functionality will go to the Matrix version, and I will only do bug fixes to the Leia version.

@bsoriano, I just installed this new version but I haven't tested everything yet. As with every new version of Amber, here are the French translations for the new functions.
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 1. Option for left-aligning the vertical menu item text.  You can find the option here:

Align menu item text to the left : Aligner le texte de l'élément de menu à gauche
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 4.  Option to Dim background when showing lyrics.  This was always being done before.  Now it is optional.  It is important to note that the default is NOT to dim the background when showing lyrics.  You can find the new setting here:

Dim background and album cover when showing lyrics : Assombrir l'arrière-plan et la pochette de l'album lors de l'affichage des paroles
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 5.  Option to show the seek bar at the start of playback.  Now you have the option to show the seek bar at the start of video playback.  You can choose how long to show the seek bar.  It is important to note that, on Leia, if you have enabled to play the next video automatically and activate this new setting, the seek bar will show for about two seconds when the next video starts, no matter what interval you choose in Amber settings.  I will not be able to change or fix that.  The setting works as expected in Matrix.  You can find the new setting here:

Show seek bar when starting video playback : Afficher la barre temporelle au lancement d'une vidéo
Time to show seek bar : Durée d'affichage de la barre temporelle
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 6.  Option to show media info with seek bar.  If you enable this new setting, Amber will show basic media info with the seek bar.  You can find the new setting here:

Show media info with seek bar : Afficher les informations multimédias avec la barre temporelle

Another function in English to be translated into French in the same section :
Hide fallback image if no thumb OSD : Masquer l'image par défaut si pas de vignette dans l'OSD
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 7.  Alternate layout for Favourites.  I have added an alternate layout for favourites, which resembles the Big List view.  Please do not ask me to do any other alternative layouts for favourites, as I will not do any more.  You can find the new setting here:

Use alternate favourites layout : Utiliser une autre disposition des favoris
 

(2021-03-11, 00:36)bsoriano Wrote: 9.  Single column option for Simple List view.  You can now choose to only show one column when using Simple List view.  The setting is here:

Single column : Colonne unique

@Cyberdom , thank you.  I have updated these in the Kodi translation system.  They should be included in the next Amber repo version.

Bart

Thank you @bsoriano, here are 2 other translations in French :

Hide title bar in main window : Masquer la barre de titre dans la fenêtre d'accueil
- In "Now playing" :
Disable now playing fanart : Désactiver le fanart de la lecture en cours

Coming from Leia and there I have a pretty nice and cosy list and I want to achieve that in Matrix too, because the list now has too much padding (size between rows).

i changed a couple of things in the View_56_Fanart.xml to fit my needs. for movies in fanart netflix style view, as you can see in the first picture, i removed the director and made the textbox larger.



i also tried this for tv shows. i removed the release date and also wanted the textbox a little bigger to decrease the gap underneath the rating, pic 2, but cannot find this textbox anywhere in the View_56_Fanart.xml file

@billyrene , the textbox is in the include "Fanart_Netflix_Info" which starts at line 809 in the View_56_Fanart.xml file.  The textbox control itself starts at line 1123.

@Merwenus , I did not change the font size of the lists according to the "Small-Regular-Large" default font size in the settings, because it is a huge hassle to have to redo all of the positioning of the lists depending on the default font size.  What I do provide is a setting to show more items in list views, which in essence makes the font size smaller in the list views.  The setting is here:

And when enabled, it would take the list view from this:

This is exactly what I was looking for (didnt notice the scroll down )
Thank you very much!

Found some bugs while setting up today, I guess you already know about it
1) Recommended Episodes is missing for TV Shows in
Home Layout - Customize Home Menu and Shelves - Series - Default Shelves -  Episodes

2) I have no idea why, but when try to force this in skin.amber.properties file to add Favourite addons in favourite shelf it WORKS, but as soon as enable "Show Two Shelves Together" it crashes and I get an error message. When I disable this, it works fine again.
