Hey!
Please tell me how can I reproduce your issue to see if it will works here too Smile After that I will implement your fix Smile


Look here the playlist type must be written in lowercase https://kodi.wiki/view/Smart_playlists/Examples

To try you need to load a tvshow library, then customize home menu, add a widget, choose default widgets, episodes, in progress episodes,

Or move the inprogressepisodes.xps to the playlist folder and access the playlist section from menu.

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

What you are refering to? Tongue

lol

1) The image I posted was just an idea on your effort to implement netflix view, maybe your latest update already includes it.
2) I don't know how you implemented tmdbhelper to show the ratings and I ended up using skinhelper to show the ratings on the top view. For some reason tmdbhelper doesn't work by just copying the windows property, ie <label>$INFO[Window(Home).Property(TMDbHelper.LisyItem.MetaCritic_Rating), ,%   ]</label>

Thanks for your efforts

I tested vertical menu "icons only" and it seems to work as expected, only you have to reload skin for the change to take effect.

oh Tongue
1. Yes, latest update already includes similar view to that one you just posted
2. Some of the tmdbhelper implementations was there when I forked this skin. It was replacement for extendedinfo. I dunno what not working for you, but hmm... maybe tmdb helper service state is in IDLE and you need to switch it to active? This is only thing what came to my mind ^^

And sorry for my not understanding. I just took a short nap and just woke up few minutes before Tongue

I really like how Netflix looks like in this, skin it off!) That is, the dark background on the whole screen and the text is long and the font is straight by default just like its native one And the ability to see all the ratings greatly complements the look itself and it looks cool even if it is not colored. .) (But still I'm used to colored ones)) Please don't do it like aeon tajo or like the original Netflix .. It looks very nice and interesting Smile And the views are made separately (landscape, in particular, I really like it!) I usually use posters ... And separately the coolest thing here!) And an additional flashlight, I know that this is not a very necessary thing, but if you make the picture clearer and brighter using the example of beatmasterrs who made a background that looks clean and bright and full screen but text still not affected with background ...)

Thanks. I noticed it too. I'm not sure what caused this but I will try to fix it. I should test some version before and check when it worked and when it stopped working Tongue

I will think of it Smile


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

I like the icons only menu, thanks.
But it would be even nicer (in my opinion) if you could place the icons only menu all the way against the left side.
​​​​​​And if possible the name of each menu name (when selected) at the top of the screen.  Blush
I really appreciate all that you do and I understand if you don't want everything asked for.

I must think a bit of it. Thanks for your ideas and using AZ2: R. It's keeping me improving it! Smile

Sorry, I forgot to add * Just the phone sat down at the wrong time😅The coolest thing here is how the view and recommendations in the information are implemented😀 As well as the full autohide of the text menu) In general, I really really like everything!) And about the previous message .. I think I did the wrong thing by writing this to you (This is your wonderful updated work and you are free to do whatever you want!) With all due respect to the beatmasterrs his amazing work on version 3 I really appreciate and admire! I just wrote to him that now my permanent skin is Arctic3 but .. All the same, yesterday or the day before yesterday I downloaded the version of Arctic: Zephyr2 and I liked it so much that I wanted to switch to it😊Now I'm among your fans Wink Thank you very much for updating it trying to do better and better Blush
