Bart I hope you reading this. Cause I noticed a little issue. First I saw the Signal quality page is back. Nice! But the info didn't show season n episodes numbers. Even in the now page. I remember you wrote that the now should have it, the next not. But neither had it. But when I turned in the setting for direct seeking, then the signal quality and next pages are gone, but now it does show the season n Episode numbers in the info.
So if I want the next and signal quality pages, then it still shows no season n Episode numbers. Even for now info
Hope you can fix this...
And also, the dot in the seek bar is still gone. Meaning no dot at all

Hope everything is well Bart

Just wondering what needs to be enabled to get the Backup/Restore menu selections within Amber settings menu to work. I have installed script.xbmcbackup and if you click on that within manage dependencies the script runs ok but nothing happens from within the backup/restore menu itself. Is this a different thing altogether?

Cheers

I've been having performance issues with amber for quite some time now. Browsing libraries with any of the panel views or icons view is laggish.
If I scroll between home menu items that have shelves enabled, there is 1-3 second lag and after I have focused all menu items lag stops. But if I open some other window and go back to home menu, same issue occurs.

I tried to replicate this performance issue with arctic zephyr reloaded skin, setting it up as close as possible to same settings as amber, without success. Yet zephyr works butter smooth.

While troubleshooting noticed that 'show disc art' option for movie collections ain't working.

I'm running out of ideas where to look for next so wonder if you would have any suggestions? Was also thinking about clean installing amber, if there is something messed up, but not sure which files should I backup, so wouldn't loose settings?

Hi Bart,

I was just doing some testing with the YouTube trailers, and what I found is that they load almost instantly using the Rapier skin, but with Amber it takes forever, sometimes nothing even loads, and I have to reboot the system and keep trying. I have the same problem with Online TMDB Info, but I've learn to accept that. Anyway, maybe you can look into the Trailer issue, and let me know if there is anything you can do.

Regards,

Shedrock

@Joeyrub , I am glad you figured out how to update from GitHub, as that will always have the latest.  Thank you for letting me know about the signal info and season and episode numbers, I will look into that.  As to the dot on the seek bar, I am not planning on bringing that back.  

Regards,

Bart

Cause if I'm on time shift hours back, this info seems useful. To show that the current show playing, was running from day 5:00 to 5:30. So the 5:00 would be at the beginning of the bar on the left end, and the 5:30 at the end of the bar on the right end.
Again this isn't a really big deal. If still use this skin without it. But I do think it would improve the experience for all us live TV users.
I see online a lot of people asking for a good skin that puts emphasis on live TV, cause none do. I now recommend Amber to anyone I can because of this.

I hope you understood my point?

@Joeyrub , thanks for the additional feedback.  I do understand your point.  I have changed the code so that it shows the original start and end times when you are in timeshift mode.  While not exactly as you requested, the info is there for you.  It looks like this:



As you can see from the above screenshot, the original start and end times are underneath the title.  Is this what you were looking for? Please let me know.  I also fixed the season and episode info not showing that you mentioned earlier.

Please update, test, and let me know what you think.  Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

I'm loving this skin more n more. I think it's THE best skin for Live TV users. It feels more like a cable box\DVR than any other skin I've tried. So thanks again n again for this. And thanks for being so responsive and so quick with fixes n updates.

@shedrock , thanks for the info.  Could you please try the latest from GitHub? The trailer button should play trailers immediately now.  I am aware that this button is only there when there is a local trailer, that the trailers only play full screen, and that there is no way to search for a trailer (on YouTube) if the movie does not have one.  I will be looking at improving this in the future.

Bart
