RE: Grid - runsamok - 2017-09-06

I can't seem to get the visualizer to come up since the background refactoring a couple of days ago.

It pops up, but then the fanart for the artist pops back over. I've cycled through the settings in the menu, just to make sure it's set correctly & the blend works & shows my visualizer blended with the fanart, as expected. Fanart & Visualizer have the same end result, except for the momentary flash of the visualizer when going in & out of Now Playing.

It was working fine & as expected before the refactoring.

As of now I will occasionally publish Leia builds to the repository add-on. These builds are to be considered experimental, incomplete and unstable. They will also be updated less regularly than the Krypton beta. As a result the Leia beta will likely contain bugs that have already been fixed in the Krypton version.

I am uploading these mostly for internal testing purposes and they are provided as is.

You are obviously welcome to use it, but please do not report bugs encountered on the Leia version. At some point (after the Krypton release has been released officially), I will be opening a new thread for the Leia version when I am ready to take bug reports for the Leia version.

Confirmed and fixed for the next update, cheers


RE: Grid - amornik - 2017-09-06

Hello !

Just installed the skin a few days back, loving it. having been a devoted fan of refocus, this is quite awesome.
one question I have is, even though the "hide empty tv show folders" option is marked for me, I still see them. cleaning or updating the library doesn't do anything.
using any other skin, they don't show, so i'm assuming it's something in the skin?

any idea on how to fix this would be helpful, cheers!

Thanks! I can't reproduce this issue though? I have a whole bunch of dummy tv show folders in my sources so that I have enough testing data for things like the Next Aired add-on and none of them are showing up for me when I have "hide empty tv show folders" enabled, and they show up when I disable it again.

Also, as this is a Kodi setting it would surprise me if skins could override this (unless intentionally setting out to perhaps).


RE: Grid - Kolabor - 2017-09-06

Jeroen, look at radio/check buttons in Your assets. See this screen. There are leftover outline/shadow pixels inside upper part of the circle. Those are leftovers from arrow when it's "checked". Think it should be fixed. Smile

And BTW – isn't it time to make Grid subforum in Skin support here?

I think I only get one once the skin is available on the official repo.

To be honest – I saw it in day one when I first launched Grid. Funny that no one spotted this before. I wanted to report this earlier but was thinking "Nah… Jeroen knows about it for sure" Big Grin

OK. Seems logic.

Can't reproduce this, fanart is showing up for me. Try changing the setting to something else and reapply them. Some of the background related options have had some changes which might need this one time trigger to be correctly applied again.

Little update...i detected, if the checkbox "show on the homescreen too" isn`t activated, the artist slideshow doesn't work correctly....for me. Neither in the music osd or in the homescreen. It only show the album covers in very bad quality in both screens. But when i activate the checkbox, artist slideshow work correctly in the music osd at least . I also reinstalled libreelec and grid....without any effect. I'm absolutly confused !!

Thanx a lot !!!

Quote:- can`t select a custom single background for the weather widget
Not sure what weather widget you are referring to? Or do you mean the actual weather window? If so I can't reproduce this either.
I only want to select a single custom image, but grid doesn't find anyone in my image folder, although there are still some pictures.


RE: Grid - gonzolak - 2017-09-06

Skin is getting better and better each day. GJ, Two bugs I've noticed :
- when using passthrough and hitting up , down volume button there is no msg telling you can't do that becouse of passthrouhg mode on (instead current volume info status show)
- in compact mode busy kodi sign overlay with clock

About performance issues i've posted week ago. I think it's system related. On Mac (hackintosh) everything is butter smooth but on windows and linux (same spec)you can see minor lag on animation loading times etc. I think most people doesn't even know about it becouse they didn't compare.

Hi lstar337, this does not work anymore after the Grid 1.2.12 update.

Any chance of an updated reFocus color job? Smile

Ok, I'll take a look tonight, don't panic Wink

Is that a local folder on your device? Somewhere on your network? I'll take a look.

Oh right, hadn't thought about that yet. I've put it on my list.

Will take a look thanks.

I can't really compare with Windows either. I develop on my iMac but do my actual viewing on a LibreElec install on an Intel NUC. It definitely is smoother on the iMac, but that's brand new and the NUC is a couple of years old so that's to be expected.
Chances are performance is going to improve a bit more once the skin is officially released as then the textures will be compressed. The skin is low on textures as the icons are all .ttf based but it is using several full resolution overlays and such so there could be some gain.


RE: Grid - Raitsa - 2017-09-06

Jeroen, I think the 1.2.16 update just broke something?
