@sualfred has added to his Embuary Helper script the ability to show ratings (imdb, tmdb, rt, etc.) outisde the info dialog, without going online to get any info.  This uses the ratings stored in your Kodi database, just like what Amber shows in the info dialog. 

I am thinking of adding this to Amber, and wanted your feedback of where else would you like to see the ratings.  Some of the places I was thinking were:

1. All media views (have to decide which to show and where, as the space is not the same in all views)
2. Video OSD

Of course, I would make this optional, for those who do not wish to see ratings in other places.  Also, they would look very similar to the info dialog, meaning that the icons would only be colored ones.

So please let me know if this is something you would like to see in Amber and where outside the info dialog you would like to see them.  Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

I think this is a good idea, since that Kodi's default is not show info dialog, and much people may don't see ratings.
I have an ideia, don't know if you agree, for change this icon and kept Amber's visual identity. My ideia is to you create new icons for IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, etc. This icon will be like media flag icons. You put the IMDB icon in the place that have "HD" word and the note in "1080", for example. 
Just an idea (that sounds good in my mind).

I just did my first update in a month or so and the shelf sorting issue that you corrected in previous versions seems to be back. here  is my original post describing the issue. wonder if you could possibly have a look at this again.

Thanks

@markj24 , you are correct.  I re-introduced the issue when I added default widgets to the skin.  I will correct again in the next update.

Thanks!
The background name is not showing after this update. It are only showing if I put it in top bar.
Is not better remove the other scrollbar when alphabet strip are enable?
Center alphabet strip between top bar and movie info bar, this way it will show better when not have movies with all letters.
And this works for scrolling without pressing enter?  

@edjalmo , I will check the issue you mention.

I will not remove the scrollbar when the alphabet strip is showing, I like having the reminder that it is there.  You are welcome to mod the skin if you like.

I am not sure I can center the strip, given that I do not know in advance what size it will be.  I will research some more how to do this. 

And no, as far as I can tell, that code does nothing to automatically scroll the list while you are scrolling the alphabet strip.  If you take a look at the date, that code is from 2 years ago.

Bart

Awesome! Thanks again.

Unfortunately, I don't have the graphic design skills to create those icons, plus, I don't have the original templates (Photoshop or other?) that were used to create the media flags.  Would you be willing to have a go at creating the icons? If somebody else creates them, I will use them in the skin.  Thanks.

Maybe show all letters and just skipping, in navigation, those don't have files could be an workaround for this (if the service you're using provide this).

@edjalmo , I can show all letters (that's how I originally had it), but I don't know how to skip in navigation those that have no entries in the list.

I checked Arctic: Zephyr 2 and there it use this + scroll without press enter. He probably use a different plugin for that, but maybe give you some idea.

@edjalmo, jurialmunkey has agreed to my adapting his code for Amber. I will work on this in the next couple of days.
