Not sure what's going on with that, it will probably take someone smarter than me to figure it out. ![]() Just checked Aeon Nox 5, it's got the same issue with the submenu not showing for custom5.

Have you tried using "Australia_PG", "Australia_R", etc? That how the images are named. If you are using the Universal Scraper, you can set the prefix in the addon settings.

I like the blend of Aeon and Refocus.I can confirm that I experience the same issue when adding a video source to the home menu. The skin is using script.skinshortcuts to create the paths, not sure there's anything I can do to fix this.

Have you tried using "Australia_PG", "Australia_R", etc? That how the images are named. If you are using the Universal Scraper, you can set the prefix in the addon settings. I didn't try that. What I did do was edit the variables.xml. It seems that for other countries' ratings, you specified each one separately, but for Australia you had a generic one. Code: <value condition="substring(ListItem.mpaa,Australia:)">$INFO[ListItem.MPAA,flags/mpaa/australia_,.png]</value> I'm not knowledgeable enough to work out why your line didn't work, though I think it should. I assume it was supposed to just grab the portion of the tag after the "Australia:" bit, and add it to the filename and put a .png extension on the end? What I did was replace that line above with the following: Code: <!--value condition="substring(ListItem.mpaa,Australia:)">$INFO[ListItem.MPAA,flags/mpaa/australia_,.png]</value--> and the Australian ratings show up correctly. I kept the original line commented out for my reference ![]() Doing this also gave me some confidence to do some more modding of the skin for personal use. First time I'd ever tried that ![]() ~Jondar RE: Mimic for Helix - braz - 2015-02-14 (2015-02-13, 12:20)mac1202 Wrote: Found another little bug. I didn't think skins could affect how Kodi remembers windows, but I just checked Aeon Nox (on which this skin is built) and it doesn't have this problem either. And it's not just a problem with List view, it seems to affect every view mode. I don't group movies by set so hadn't noticed this before, I'm stumped though as to what might be causing the problem. Anyone have any ideas? RE: Mimic for Helix - ghostelement - 2015-02-14 I noticed that recently, the screensaver funtion doesn't work. On both of my media centers, I'm running Kodi 14.1 with the Mimic skin. I have it set to dim after 3mins, but nothing happens on either of them. This used to work. Not sure if a skin change is responsible for this breaking.

Not sure if a skin change is responsible for this breaking. Have you tested it with other skins? Likely not a skin issue, the 3 minute dim screensaver is working here with Kodi 14.1.

The white theme looks amazing with my color logo PNGs! However, it appears as though there's still a color diffuse on the logos when I press in the info key when the channel is full screen and also on the pop up channel menu. Should be fixed now, let me know if you find any others...thanks. RE: Mimic for Helix - thrak76 - 2015-02-14 I've not noticed this before (because of content choices), but titles and text with apostrophes, ampersands, etc. are displaying incorrectly. Is this skin or Kodi related? ![]() If it's not a skin issue i'll post up elsewhere. Thanks!

Is this skin or Kodi related? Just checked several movies with apostrophes here, and they all display correctly. Do you have this problem with all movies with apostrophes? Looks like it might be an issue with how the movie information is being scraped. RE: Mimic for Helix - thrak76 - 2015-02-14 It isn't all the titles. Around half of them were showing incorrectly. I took a look at the Universal Scraper settings, changed title scrape from IMDB to tmdb, and refreshed the titles. After the refresh they displayed correctly. Thanks for leading me to an easy fix!

I just tested several (YouTube, Sports Illustrated, NBC Live Sports), and they all have either List/Icon or all of the video views available. Thanks for checking! I was actually meaning the list of video addons. When selecting Videos - > Video Addons, I can only get the list of video addons displayed on a list view. However, when selecting Programs, I can choose between List and Icon. RE: Mimic for Helix - lowfi - 2015-02-15 Does anyone have a good artwork pack for mimic?

I tried a few things, but they didn't work. I'm going to have to think about this one for a while. |
