Edit:  I take that last part back.  That weird choppy pause (different from the video acceleration thing) seems to come and go at times still too (no idea what's causing it, but switching to Confluence instead makes it go away 100%).

My Nvidia Shield doesn’t seem to have that problem with the skin and odd pauses, but it also doesn’t really get choppy video with .AVI either way, so I can’t really test that aspect either on that device. It’s my 2nd gen FireTV 4K that has both issues.

@VonMagnum , could you please try the latest from GitHub? Than you for the screenshot you sent, I now am disabling the correct setting.  Please let me know if it is now working as you expect.  Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

Sorry, there's no difference.  It doesn't appear to disable it.

Only in the login screen do I see the Kodi logo on the top left, and that is because that dialog was coded with the Kodi logo on the top left.

The only difference perhaps in my system is OS, since I am running Windows.

You can always comment everything in the startup.xml and see if that fixes the issue for you, as the only code that I changed that would have any effect on this is in the startup.xml.  If you do that, please let me know how it goes.  Thanks.

Had a chance to dig into this.  I've gotten it down to one line in the Home.xml file.

Code:

<include condition="Skin.HasSetting(EnableHomeStats) + !Skin.HasSetting(DisableScriptStats) + System.HasAddon(service.library.data.provider)">VideoNodeStatsList</include>


I haven't had a chance to dig further to figure out what exactly the problem is though.

Are you running the 32bit or 64bit version on windows?

I posted about it here (way back in April 2017!): https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=346302&pid=2578028#pid2578028 and Helly made a number of fixes in v3.3.18 here: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=346302&pid=2586088#pid2586088

But something that didn't get fixed and was then stated as the (new?) expected behaviour was a big change to the way the OSD progress/seek bar worked - it was made to be a very small size at the bottom right (or the top right if you have set: Skin Settings > General > Global options > Enable original confluence popup seek bar)

Prior to Krypton / v3.3.17 it was possible for the full size OSD progress/seek bar (plus Title, Duration, Codec Info, etc, but without buttons) to be displayed, both when seeking as well as when starting a video (if you have set: Skin Settings > General > Video OSD settings > Enable video OSD start playing introduction)

It would be great if it was possible to have the option of this full size OSD available again in these cases please.

Here's a current screenshot showing how it should look.
(this OSD still exists and is available from the "I" keyboard shortcut - it's just not used anymore in the above cases).

THANKS!

After updating to Kodi Krypton, and to Xonfluence v3.3.17, and now having used it a while, I just wanted to report what seem to be some issues, or at the very least changed behaviour compared to Xonfluence running on Kodi Jarvis.

* When jumping forward or back in a video the Progress Bar, Codec Info, Player Controls, etc are not displayed.
It is no longer possible to easily see the video duration like before, or easily see where you are jumping to in the video.
Only a mini OSD displayed in the bottom right hand corner, as follows:



- NB: in all cases the option "Enable original popup confluence seekbar" is DISABLED for these tests.


*A similar issue also occurs when the "Enable video OSD start playing introduction" is ENABLED.
Only a limited OSD is displayed with the Title and Codec Info, but no Progress Bar, Player Controls, etc, as follows:

@jmh2002 , could you please try the latest from GitHub? I think I have implemented what you were looking for.  There are 2 new settings you need to enable:



That one will show the larger seek bar when you are forwarding or rewinding.  It makes it look like this:




And the second setting is to make that same larger seek bar show up in the intro at the start of playback.  By the way, as a side effect of a fix for that into for live streams, it now starts immediately after playback, and not 3 seconds in.  The setting is here:





And it looks like this at the start of playback:



Please test and let me know if this is indeed what you were looking for.  Thanks.

where can I actually download the complete Xonfluence skin for Matrix with the latest program version?
In Kodi 19.0.0 (for Windows) the Xonfluence-version number 4.0.10 appears.
This is about 2 to 3 years old after all.

@jacky_smith , I am in the process of updating Xonfluence to work well in Matrix.  As such, there is no "official" Xonfluence version for Matrix, and there is no repo where you can find this, thus there are no automatic updates.

At the moment, the only place you can download a version of Xonfluence for Matrix is here: https://github.com/bartolomesoriano/skin.xonfluence/archive/refs/heads/matrix.zip

Bart

(2021-05-07, 21:43)jacky_smith Wrote: Hello Bart,

I have a lot of music videos for which I have manually created nfo files ("Local Information only"). These have different resolutions and different audio formats.
If these are registered under the main point "Videos", Xonfluence shows very detailed the video format and audio format if "View option" is set accordingly (see picture).



Under the main point "music video" these information are missing completely or partially.
With access via "Artist" the information is missing completely (see picture).



With access via "Titles" a part of the information is missing: Resolution, audio codec and number of audio channels (see image).



Would it be possible to add this? That would be great.
