<smartplaylist type="Episodes"> Episodes with capital "E" doesnt work for me had to modify as <smartplaylist type="episodes"> to make it works.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - MrMagic - 2021-06-17

Just tried this on my Shield Pro 2019 with Matrix 19.1, because I used to love this skin on Leia.

I always ran it with the color option "Dark with darker dialogs", but that doesn't seem to work properly in this version. The background on the main screen looks too light, more like a light grey I would say.

Any chance this can be fixed?

Note: I'm using the vertical home menu layout.

If want to see correct behaviour, refer to pkscout mod. It's working fine in that mod.

Hey!
Could you please make a screen capture how it's looks? Here it works I think: https://streamable.com/yi60y7
Also what frontend/backend you are using for Live TV?

#edit
Please turn on debugging mode also.

Seeing that you had it working, I reinstalled my iptv provider's addon, iptv simple addon and the skin. And now it's working again.

Probably I know what causing it. I will try to fix this today Smile

Are you using blur background option or no?

For a long time I have been using the Arctic Zephyr version for a very long time .. I really liked the design but I noticed the updated design of the previous versions) I really liked the Netflix design and there is a lot of information in the details!) I really like it ..) So I want to try it😊Nov I would like to know how you can make the background of the picture brighter and clearer and the possibility of additional fanart. Otherwise, I really liked this new updated skin☺And I wanted to know I just did not find the function of colored rating icons

Hey, thanks!
Probably I will add an option to make background fanart more brighter and colorful. About colored ratings - I will implement this too and there will be switch to choose between monochrome and colored ratings Smile But I need a little bit of time to do this. Now I should focus a little bit on fixing some bugs mentioned before in this topic Smile

Hi!
Added option to set only icons for vertical menu. You can test it right now by installing from this zip file: https://github.com/nfm886/skin.arctic.zephyr.2.resurrection.mod/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
If everything is ok, I will push this changes with today's update Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - Silent Knight - 2021-06-17

finally got to do a little testing etc with new work you have done, Amazing stuff, you have definitely done a lot of work, shocked with how much. wish I knew python you are doing great.

I noticed with the skin the highlight feature is not working as it should, attached video will show this better than my dyslexic ramblings.

The select highlight colour no longer works as it did as the TV selection highlight for example is linked to the theme colour and the settings is linked to the old highlight colour selection.

note: black highlight
Image

Note: blue highlight same skin
Image


So I am thinking maybe remove the highlight colour and instead link that to the theme? or have to highlight colour change the highlight in the theme code?
I feel removing the Highlight colour and link the highlight colour to the theme and the selection box highlight (Love that by the way) as white and theme.

I could them work on some themes red, blue, green, Arctic ice with blue highlight that you can add, so the default new theme would be Black highlights is menus and TV selection etc since its current is black via the theme code.

what are your thoughts?

Thanks for kind words! Smile I'm trying doing my best Wink

About highlight, it's indeed how it should works Tongue However I planning to improve it's a little bit adding gradient to it for example. It will have similar behavior to that one from Arctic Horizon skin.
Adding few new skins it's a lot of works. This way you can set your own color on highlight. And we have to be careful to not broke consistency of this skin Smile

Hmm.. Watching your screen record I know what you mean. Maybe it's not that bad idea. I think in the future we can think about it Smile However as I said, we have to be careful to not break consistency. So changes should be as minimal as possible. But adding some colors to it should not be bad idea.

#edit
Hmm... What you think about record some "presentation" of this skin? Tongue If you have time would be nice to see it. Then we can show it to people instead of screenshots Smile
Of course with attached all the possible home layouts so far Tongue
And please do not do this with banned add-ons Wink

nfm886,

I know you are working on a netflix view, below is what I came up with using Aeon Tajo. I don't know how you were able to use tmdbhelper, I couldn't make it work and ended up using skinhelper
