Nanomani, would you be so kind to raise a PR for the changes that would be needed, many thanks.

It is possible but if it is never merged what is the sense ?  Big Grin
They are more than 5400 post here for AZR so you are not the first one to ask to @beatmasterrs this. Sorry

However I have been working on a very cool new feature "Wikipedia searches" Smile
It is possble with the last version addon TMDB helper.

The design is not finish. But all works like a charm.

EDIT : sorry @beatmasterrs for the bench of screenshot.
I never understand how to make a slideshow with Imgur  Confused

I promise nothing but I have some question : 

"The rounded corners" means lot of code here and here.
So I guess you want this only for poster, fanart not for the windows or the dialog ?

In my version all is rounded Smile

Thats absolutely fine, but is there a way to provide this a an option/theme? Smile

Wow, good question Smile
In my opinion, anything is possible. Such an option would require a lot of work, code and testing.
Not sure to have the time and the skill for that Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Reloaded - robertlaing - 2023-03-20

Nanomani, surely amending the media flags would be easy to do.

So in the info screens for Movie, TV Shows and Music, amend the flags so they look like this:

https://imgur.com/a/VdQrtDL

And amend the media flags at the bottom of the screen so they look like this:

https://imgur.com/a/GIeZJrl

That is all I have been asking for.
Just to tidy the media flags so the ratings come at the end.

Surely a simple request can be looked upon kindly.

1 - I am not the owner of AZR. I am not the one who decides if it should be done or not on AZR public
2 - the IMDb flag exists only on my side. There is a PR from a user on Github for AZR public. But it has not been merged yet
https://github.com/beatmasterRS/skin.arctic.zephyr.mod/pull/911
3 - I'm sorry if I introduced some confusion or got your hopes up with my screenshot.

You absolutely have to understand that an official skin on Kodi repo can't be changed every day.
And we have to respect the owner's choice. All this is done on own free time. It is only a hobby.
which is freely available to people.

Please be patient  Cool

If you are curious the code for the Video Media Flag in VideoDialogInfo is here :

https://github.com/beatmasterRS/skin.arctic.zephyr.mod/blob/e68fbe09c434879f88dbe1841ccacd3a66f1dd90/1080i/Includes_Furniture.xml#L472-L1329

The code for the Video Media Flag in Home and View Layout is here :

https://github.com/beatmasterRS/skin.arctic.zephyr.mod/blob/e68fbe09c434879f88dbe1841ccacd3a66f1dd90/1080i/Includes_Furniture.xml#L1331-L2239


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Reloaded - robertlaing - 2023-03-20

I've unzipped the skin zip file, made the changes to the code, zipped the folder but when I try and install the zip file in Kodi, it brings back an error.
I am using an Android Shield so I cannot see the xml files on the shield.
So I had to download the skin zip file to windows, unzip, amend the file and then create a new zip file.
Then run kodi on my android shield, install from zip file, as I always do for updating this skin, point it to my zip file and error!

Is it the way windows is compacting the files?

On shield you must enable Samba sharing on Shield setting :

Source : https://nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/4172/~/how-do-i-share-shield-tv-folders-with-a-pc

And then create a shortcut from your PC Windows with this link :

\\"Shield IP"\internal\Android\data\org.xbmc.kodi\files\.kodi

eg: \\192.168.0.10\internal\Android\data\org.xbmc.kodi\files\.kodi

Many thanks.

I am in!!!!


RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Reloaded - robertlaing - 2023-03-20

If I want to remove the rating on the info pages amongst the media flags before the synopsis, could you kindly point me to the xml that would need removing?
Movie, TV Show and Music?

I deleted where I thought it was in the code but the rating still appears.
I reloaded the skin as well after the change but no luck.

PR only for you from the lastest code  :

  • Logic is the same between Home and Video Dialog

RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Reloaded - robertlaing - 2023-03-20

Many many thanks. I very much appreciate your help.

I see you have made the rating conditional now on whether the rating has been selected or not in the furniture.
Before it was always showing in the movie/tv info screen. Thanks for this.

You have been so kind would you do one thing for me?
Could you kindly amend the code for album and song info so that the rating is at the end and also make it conditional as per furniture choice.
This would make all 3 sources, Movie, TV Show and Music (Album and Song) Info screens the same.

Once again many thanks.

RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Reloaded - robertlaing - 2023-03-20

Once again many thanks.

I really cannot thank you enough, it has made the skin so much more consistent and it looks great.
Fantastic!

Now all we have to do is to convince beatmasterrs to put your changes into the official master.
Now how do you suggest we do that? LOL!!!

Many thanks again.
