Thank you for all the time, patience and hard work you put into the Kodi skinning projects. The addition you made (Right List view) to the Amber skin looks stunning.   

Sincerely,

Thanks Bart,

I forgot you changed it. Whenever you have time, can you look at this post: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=342130&pid=3041443#pid3041443 - No rush.

The leia branch shows an update from an hour ago to implement the right list but the matrix branch is showing last update two days ago and I can't test it in the skin. From the screen shots it looks Awesome! You continue to make really great improvements to the skin and add features I never knew I needed. Really great work that is much appreciated =)

What settings do I need to select to show ratings in all views?

There are some skins that either show the media flags or the ratings, there is no easy answer on this view. An option would be to display them under the movie title (Rocky) ?

The examples that @lynxstrike provided reminded me of how much I liked the "Episodes" view from Aeon MadNox (that is the first example provided), so I decided to recreate that view as the Right List view in Amber.  It has been an interesting and rewarding experience to bring this to Amber, so thanks again.

The new Right List view in Amber (changes are already on GitHub, for both Matrix and Leia) is available for movies, sets, tv shows, seasons and episodes.  I will look into adding it for music videos, artists, albums and songs at a later time.

This is an example of how the view can look like for movies:




The view has a few options, as you can see here:



Some of these options are slef-explanatory, like Show Poster and Show Logo.  Here is an example with both of those turned off:



The above screenshot shows one of the options for the list item type: Clear Logo.  

The other options are Banner:



And Text:



As you can see from the above screenshots, you can turn on an option to fade out the unfocused items, which makes the focused item stand out more.  Here is what it looks like with that option turned off:



You can also disable the floor texture, which then makes the view look like this:



It is important to note that all of the elements that appear at the bottom can be enabled or disabled, through the corresponding settings in Settings, Skin Settings, Media Views, Select Items to Show in Views:



You can also enable an information popup, for which you can configure the delay.  How it works is that when you stop on an item, after the configured amount of seconds the info popup will appear, something like this:



I think that covers most of the options, please explore them all and let me know what you think.

Here is how the view looks like for Seasons, Episodes and Sets:








NOTE: In order for the ratings to show up, you need to have script.embuary.helper installed and enabled in your system.  This is necessary, since Kodi does not show the ratings (other than the main rating) outside of the video info dialog.

Please test, and let me know what you think and any issues you might find.  Thank you!


Regards,

Bart

@Edworld , you are correct, there is no easy answer.  There just is not enough space in this view to have ratings inside the original view area.  Do you know of any skin that displays ratings in list views in a "pleasing" way?

For now, I will continue to include ratings only on the Right List view.

Bart
