I have the skin version 0.5.59
But in github I see that the latest version is 0.5.51

Could you tell me if my version is correct?

Thanks.

Is there a way to change the view mode in Landscape Wall for AW-groups (shortcuts) in AH ?
Only Landscape List for selection!

two short questions:

first: youtube preview pics don't show up anymore. I made an issue on github:
https://github.com/jurialmunkey/skin.arctic.horizon/issues/441
is this already fixed and did I miss something?

second:
what is arctic waves? Installed it but don't see any difference

Jellyfin Add-on
When I open the plugin I only see the libraries I have added and some generic favorite movies, favorited episodes type menu options.  What's missing are the Jellyfin menu items, like Manage Libraries (the main one I need).
If I switch the skin to Estuary, I can see all the Add-on menu items: Manage Libraries, Add Server, Add User to Sessions etc etc. As well as the Libraries.

I've tried resetting the add-on, removing and re-installing the add-on, resetting all views, etc etc, but nothing fixes the problem.

I'm running Kodi on Android, NVidia Shield TV.  It's normally faultless.

Are these context menu items or menus inside the add-on? What version of Kodi?

These are menu items inside the Add-On.  Kodi 19.3

I did some digging and playing around.  here's what I have found:

If I create a menu item from Add On / Video Add On / Jellyfin / Create menu item here
- When I select that menu item, AH shows the content as "Videos" and the default search order
- The menu is missing the non-library menu items

If I create a menu item from Add On / Video Add On / Video Add-Ons shortcut
- When I select that menu item I see Jellyfin Add-On in the list and select it
- When the Jellyfin Add-on menu loads, AH shows the content "Add-On" and all the menu items, not just libraries, is shown.

So in my layman mind, it seems that when an addon is specifically selected as a menu item, AH presumes it's content type to be Videos (or Music if you go through "Music Add-ons"), not Add-On.  It seems when AH assumes it's video content, it only shows video content menu items and ignores the others.

This is new behavior (how new I don't know, the setup has been flawless and rarely need the admin menu items).  I've found a work around which requires one extra remote click but something has changes that's changing menu behaviour.

Possibly the jellyfin addon does something weird where it reroutes the base plugin path. Because the skinshortcuts customisation window opens the folder first before you can set the shortcut, jellyfin is rerouting to the new path and the shortcut gets set as the rerouted path rather than the base "pre-reroute" path that opens from video addons.

You could try going into video addons window (where it launches correctly) and set it as a favourite from the context menu. Then in skinshortcuts set the favourite as the menu item instead.

The latter. I have it set as a submenu that should open in a separate window

OK, that worked.  Set the Add-on as a favorite then created a submenu pointing to the favorite.  The add-on menu lists all the items.

I can live with the work-around as it's only a change to how the menu is configured to get it back to the way I had it.  But if you want to investigate more and want some logs/files or want me to try something, let me know.

(2021-11-07, 06:38)jurialmunkey Wrote: I don't use Jellyfin but I was curious to see what was happening, so I installed the addon. It's basically what I expected about rerouting the path but in reverse:

It does something weird where it modifies its own "plugin://plugin.video.jellyfin/" base path in Kodi video addons to add a "?content_type=videos" param on the end so it becomes "plugin://plugin.video.jellyfin/?content_type=videos". I've never seen a plugin modify its own base path like this before.

As far as I can tell, the base path "plugin://plugin.video.jellyfin/" with no params runs some type of first run wizard or setup script, then modifies the entry in video addons to add a "?content_type=videos" param afterwards. The problem is that skinshortcuts retrieves the path internally via json-rpc rather than opening the video addons window, so it ends up getting the base path without the param (which would work for practically every other addon -- Jellyfin's approach is highly unusual). That's why favouriting it works - because you're grabbing the path directly from the video addon window.

In the end you get a shortcut that is running the setup script which is probably dumping you out in some default location after it runs rather than the desired content_type location.

This setup script was probably added in a recent update of theirs, and probably previously the base path opened what is now the content_type= path -- so that'd be why you saw the behaviour change

EDIT: According to the code, without any params it runs a "dynamic browser" not a setup script per se. But the basic principle is the same -- after first run setup, the addon modifies its own base path in video addons to open a specific location rather than this dynamic browser (which I assume is some more generic entry point).
