Everything with that build works fine, and my family are able to download it and install it correctly on the Firestick - once it is installed they force close Kodi on the Firestick and when they reopen, the skin has correctly changed from Confluence to Aeon Nox and all my menu settings are correct.
So that encouraged me to create some more builds using different skins - I created one using Arctic Zephyr (from ashes) and one using the Titan skin. I then uploaded them and made them available through my wizard as I had done with my first build - but when I went to install it on my Firestick - when I force close and reopen - the skin and all my menu settings havnt been correctly ported over. It still opens up with the Confluence skin.
All the addons and programs have been correctly installed - but when I go and manually change the skin to the correct one, it just opens up without all my custom menu settings, and resets all the menus to stock set up.
The strange thing is, when I use my laptop to install the builds through my Kodi Wizard - everything sets up correctly, with the right skin showing with all my custom menus.
I am at a complete loss as to why it works on my laptop, but not on the firestick - would anyone be able to point out where I am going wrong?

Does the Titan skin GUI/menu settings require some file paths to be changed so that the firestick can correctly set up the menu?

My download wizard can be found at http://s666.esy.es and the builds are called Build 1 (which is the Aeon Nox build), Arctic and Titan.
Any help VERY much appreciated!!!

Sorry, no support for builds/wizards here. Please use the normal/offocial methods to install skins and addons.
You can use the skin's builtin backup feature to transfer your skin settings to another machine.

A new skin beta will come within a few days with much improved speed, stability and more features.
Also I'll take the time to answer the questions here. Please be patient for a few more days :-)

The skin is amazing...my favourite of all the available Kodi skins by far, so thanks for your hard work and contribution to the Kodi experience.

Keep up the good work!

Thanks !

This might have been fixed in one of the current betas but listening to a band called Mistur, the online lookup for music artwork translates it to Ministry and shows artwork of Ministry. I believe it shouldn't show anything if there is no artwork found.

Edit: The files are properly tagged

This issue is fixed in the current beta version of the skin. New stable version will follow within a few weeks.

Reinstalled kodi today and whilst it's was installing I already had kodi on my phone so I installed jarvis skin from it. The added a few addons and tested it and it worked an d looked fine so I installed normal jarvis version on this skin and it works just how I've always wanted it to

Is the issue fixed in the latest new beta version ?

I don't want to combine my hard disks into one. If I did i wouldn't have this "problem". See my screenshot, I only want 1 shortcut for "Kids" for example. Now I use 2 different shortcuts because some of the movie files are on hard drive 1 and some are on hard drive 2

By default, if you scrape your movies to Kodi you will have one big Movies library...

Basically, for my global background, I've set a custom image to use for the skin background and also disabled the fanart background feature. The custom background works fine throughout the skin when no media is playing, but what I'm trying to find out is when you are playing video/audio media and then return to the home menu or for that matter go to any other home menu item, instead of having the live video/music visualization playing in the background, you keep the custom background you set for the skin? Is there a setting anywhere in the skin to do this?

Hope I've explained well enough to what I'm meaning here.
Cheers

In the skin settings you'll find an oiption called "disable now playing background" that's what you need.

Reproduce it by quickly selceting one channel then immediately selecting the next. Channel info after that will only disappear again if you hit "i" button.

Might be a bug in Kodi itself. Or maybe it's by design, who knows.
Anyways, I can't reproduce the issue on my setup so it might also be pvr system related.

Yes, but there was a time where it stopped working. It should all be fine now with current beta version.

If I highlight movies and press up to bring up the widgets I get the in progress one. If I then press up again it starts cycling through the widgets I have set for TV Shows and never returns to the movies ones.

Skin is up to date. Unfortunately I don't have details to hand of which "mode" I have the home screen set to. I think it's something like simple horizontal. I can confirm and report back later if required.

I also had a problem when in the movies library. It was showing the same large thumbnail for every movie (Netflix view). Which happened to be whichever background was displaying on the homescreen when I selected to go into the movie library. Not sure if that was a one off glitch though as haven't yet had chance to reboot and check again.

Can you check this again with the latest beta skin version (.91) ?
A lot of code was altered last weeks and I fixed all issues I spotted myself while testing.

I have shortcuts on the home screen to the Movie and TV sections of this addon. But when you use the movie short cut, all the trakt features, trakt on deck, my collection, and watchlist do not show up. If I launch the addon and go from there, every there shows up as it should.

I'm sorry, we can't provide support for those addons.

Got the update and it appears to have broken quite alot however.
Here are a few things I've picked up so far..... Sorry to add to your work lol we all know how great of a job you do.
1. Random movie library scans occurring
2. Skin setting changes aren't being saved after restart
3. Unable to change layout for widgets
4. Loss of image for addons (program, video, picture) when using enable square submenu
5. Widget info panel not pulling description from Super Favourites
6. Loss of default background overlay + busy animation icons

*Still experiencing significant issue from long PC uptime (as we had discussed previously) - Determined its Titan + widgets causing this but skin is too good don't want to give it up Tongue Still come back to high memory usage and very choppy video after PC has been left on.

Yeah, sorry I couldn't catch up with the forum messages while I was doing the major changes to all of my addons. I must have changes like 10000's of lines of code last weeks and it was a little more work than I originaly anticipated ;-)
Anyways, most work is now done on all skin helper addons, in the skin there's some work left to do.
As for your issue with the memory usage and widgets, that is not exactly skin related but more of a kodi issue with the dynamic content (= widgets). As the skin uses a lot of widgets, it kind of steps into the edges of capabilities.
Next weeks I'll be looking into optimizations I can do to improve this.

As for your issues, tonight I have already fixed a bunch of widgets. My addons are also used by other skinners and some of them reported soem issues to me which I looked into.
I hope I can provide a new beta later today for you guys to test.

1) Hmmm, I do not have any idea what could be causing that. It is definitely not the skin or any of my helper addons. might be some other configuration...

2) In that case your Kodi is closed forced instead of gracefully. Look in your kodi logfile after a shutdown if you spot any errors in there. Also make sure to never ever install any "forced kodi close" addon or whatsoever.

3) I can't reproduce this one. Might be that I just fixed that so please test after new update.

4) Yeah sorry, that one can only be solved by reassigning the images to your shortcuts. I couldn't do that automated without very large hacks.

5) Hmm, strange. I'll have to look into that. Might take me a few days as I don't have SF installed.

6) same as for the submenu icons, some images have to be reassigned as I couldn't automatically migrate all stuff

I am seeing all of the things mentioned in the post above plus if you have any sub menus on the home screen you cannot enter into the main home menu item. What I mean is that if I have a sub menu for my TV show library clicking on TV shows takes me to the sub menu... I cannot get to my TV show library unless I remove all sub menu.
Not sure why, but this option was defaulted on in the new beta.
Go into the skin settings\Homescreen layout - then under the "Homescreen options", set the "Open/Focus submenu at click on mainmenu item" option to off.

Thanks for the info.
