For example I made a skin setting toggle to Enable/Disable bottom shortcuts skin.togglesetting(enable.bottomshortcuts), but doesnt change until I either enter the settings and back out, or if I reload skin. So just curious if I can add refreshskin() to the command somehow? Thanks, this is fun...

@jdig4240 , through the menu configuration dialog there is no way that I know of having more than one command.  I can create an "action override" that does both commands (enable/disable bottom shortcuts and reload the skin), and you could then use that as the custom action.  Would you like me to do that? If so, please look very thoroughly at what other skin settings you would like to have a shortcut for which could need a skin reload, since I only want to work once on this.  Thanks.

Bart

@jdig4240 , it took me a while to figure out what the issue was, since it was not obvious and there was nothing in the log.  I think I have fixed the issue now, please test the latest from GitHub.  I tested IAGL with all of the Amber view types, and in all cases now when you exit the game there is no reloading.  Please test and let me know how it works for you.  Thanks.

@G0mez , thanks for that additional info.  I guess I have not noticed this degradation in performance in my Windows system.  What is the environment that you are using? I want to do some testing (I have every version of Amber, so I can test until I get to where the performance started to degrade), but I want to approximate the testing to what you are seeing, since, again, I do not have an issue in my Windows 11 HTPC.

@Joeyrub , I found a little time today and got this done.  There is a new setting "Teletext Button Opens EPG" that does what you asked.  You can find the new setting here:



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

Yuuuup! Works beautifully Bart! Love it!

Because like I said before this issue isn't about me personally wanting the logos back, cause I probably will stick with the show poster\thumb anyway. But that's exactly what I kept thinking, that this must be an oversight, or a error. Cause I so expected one of the options to put the logos back.
Just hearing you say it was a oversight, kinda confirms what I thought.
Let me know when it's ready, I'll test it out for you

@Joeyrub , I have added this as an option.  The new option is "EPG Icon/Channel Logo", since some PVR backends do provide a programme icon (poster or other), which Kodi defaults to the channel logo if the icon is not provided by the PVR backend.  I thought it best not to add two separate options.

I also regrouped the settings in the Full Screen/OSD skin settings category, since it made sense to me what you said about the settings which pertain to OSD button functions being grouped together.  The settings look like this now:



Please test and let me know if it is working well for you.  Thanks.

But Bart, this is the first time I'm testing one of your fixes that didn't work...
If I select the option, Epg icon\channel logo. I still get the same option as all other options there give me. The same show thumb. But No channel logo.
Just FYI. The very first version of the Amber Skin I installed, from the Kodi repo still. That version had the channel logos on the OSD screen. So maybe going back to that could show you how to get it again? Just a suggestion. I'm sure you'll figure it out better than me. Hehe.

Nope these logos are not showing up Bart.
I tried restarting Kodi thinking maybe if it refreshed the backend again, maybe it will then download and display the channel logos. But nope. Nothing I tried helped anything. Still the same, no matter which option I select, including the new Epg icon\channel logo, it still only shows the same show poster...

Hopefully you can figure this out...
Enjoy your weekend Bart

(2021-11-27, 22:24)bsoriano Wrote: @Joeyrub, the changes are working correctly. As per my post, the new option shows the EPG programme icon if your PVR backend provides it, which Kodi defaults to the channel logo if the PVR backend does not provide an icon. In your case, your PVR backend seems to always provide an icon.

I will think about an option that always displays the channel logo. I can only test one PVR backend, so I do not know if it will work the same with other backends.
