Ah .. may have spoke too soon, is that not enabled yet? Upgraded to 3.0.7, checked TV Show Next Aired is running, but no info displaying in the TV Shows view?

(I'll be patient .. promise)

Shuold be working, make sure that SkinSettings-->ScriptOptions-->"Enable TV Shows Next Aired" is enabled.

I do it that way for quite a few scripts as it's faster to check if a skin setting is enabled rather than checking if the plugin is installed every time I want to display something from it.

And obviously only TVShows with a soon to be aired episode showup - but I'm sure you know that Smile

With the Background Artwork setting now applying to all submenu items under the main menu item you apply your chosen artwork to... why wouldn't we just have Live Content as an additional option on that screen? Then the Background Type option can be removed from the Home Menu Items section of the Skin Settings. This makes more sense to me, but just a thought.

It's a code problem - the "Background Artwork" section sets the path for kodi to look for images, where as the option in the menu items sets an on off toggle to include a bunch more code to show live content.

Also I don't seem to have the incorrect background on the "Recently Added Episode" - Used Kryptonite theme - easier to see Smile all menu items set to "User Select" and all backgrounds set to "Theme". This screenshot from submenu "Recently Added" under "TVShows" menu item.

Ah yes, hadn't enabled that! Blush

All working great now, Thanks very much Mudislander!! Big Grin

Such a little thing, but something I use all the time, made my day!

No - But if it used to be slow and now is very quick, Check that "Enable FanArt Script" is enabled as it changes slowly and might have turned off for some reason.

One request
Can you please remove the "buffering" pop up in live tv when changing channel

Thanks for your work !


RE: CCM for Helix - trogggy - 2015-01-31

On a similar note there was a 'disable busy animation' option in the old skin - if I remember rightly it was there 'cos the Pi doesn't like spinny things.
Is it possible to do the same thing?


RE: CCM for Helix - User 112425 - 2015-01-31

@Mudislander

I found a bug. Go to Scripts Options -> press right arrow twice and move to vertical bar -> then press left arrow. It is impossible to enter script options.

About the default background:
The old background that you used in 3.0.7 is very confusing (I can't find a better word). I definitely prefer bubbles instead of that. I think a more minimal background integrates better with the skin, but it is just my personal view. Anyway, as I told you before you are doing an amazing job with CCM and thanks again for that! Smile

I'll look for the bug

Re: the background, I forgot to change it back before building the skin - is supposed to be bubbles still as I haven't made up my mind and was testing on my system Big Grin

Edit Just looked for your bug - I had seen it before, swore at my system and didn't fix it Big Grin - I'll do it now

Don't know about this one. Will look into it. I don't like the big black Confluence popups - but we need to know what's happening.

How long does your system take to change channels and is it a better with if you turn off "Enable Original Confluence Seek Bar" ?


RE: CCM for Helix - trogggy - 2015-01-31

Ta. Tried it on a pi last night and it seems to be running well - but every little helps.

Do me a favour and shout out if you see the performance dropping.

Yes , no more pop up if i turn off "Enable Original Confluence Seek Bar" thanks!

Channel change takes maybe 2 seconds but the buffering message is really ugly.
If possible make a delay of buffering text in in seekbar , maybe just show it if channel change takes too long, 5-10 sec ?

Big Grin I guess we better add this one in then, I'd hate to spoil someone's porn collection - just hope it's not too big as this view is not the best for large lists.

Actually may as well chuck on the "FullWall List"

Tongue Thanks Mudislander - look forward to that. Keep up the good work CCM is looking great
