1. Respecting your idea of ​​simplifying to get to the point, why not delete "overview" in panel ? You just need to arrow up to display the synopsis.
   
2. Concerning the synopsis precisely, I think that the line spacing of the text should be tightened even if it makes the font even bigger to be able to read easily from the back of the sofa. I also think it would be more aesthetic to justify the text.
   
3. I find it unnecessary to display the gallery in the overview since it is already present at the bottom of the information panel. In addition, these images are often of very different formats and of very variable quality. I would prefer that we can see the fanart in full screen by pressing the arrow again for example.
   
4. On the different views (movies, tv shows, music ...), I find the summary illegible because too small to be read from the sofa (it is not specific to AH but to all skins), and it is really a shame for a mediacenter supposed to be on the living room TV. With this in mind, instead of displaying an illegible summary, why not replace it with the "tag line" with a sufficient font size, that we see too rarely for my taste in skins? It's made to inspire the desire to know more or to play the media. In addition it will take less space, and would allow to display larger covers !
   
5. And I don't know if it's this period of confinement or not, but I find that having the date at the time level would be really appreciated ... Difficult to know what day it is right now ...
   
6. Also, I think you should make a choice of menu for the parameters: either the native, or the specific to the Arctic series, which I find very successful. It just lacks the logs, the file manager and the addon manager.

I've now added a feature for a submenu popup menu. This menu can be added to any mainmenu shortcut from the Common shortcuts - it will cause the submenu popup onclick.

I've just released version 1.2.5, and among its uses is the ability to make a "shortcut group", set it as a widget, and control the aspect (among other things) yourself. This means you can have submenu widgets of any size, any aspect, etc... And a bunch of other neat stuff

What is the functionality here? One row of widgets changing automatically from lets say Popular movies to Trending Movies? Would be usefull to change automatically the widget rows in my opinion

Have a look at the following github pulls by @ksooo

Another question: Is it possible to use your skin with a remote that has only a few keys (ok, up, down, left, right, back, volume slider) like the nvidia shield remote (2015/2017 model)?

It would be really nice to have at least a button to play/pause at the pvr osd, maybe activateable per switch.

Regards Hoppel

I don't have these features in my PVR (it's a pretty simple implementation of Australian IPTV via the fantastic work of Matt Huisman). I can't get reception at my place so unfortunately I'm limited to IPTV implementations which makes these things really difficult to test. Once I release the skin, I'll look at adding some of these additional PVR features with the help of testers.

In terms of remote - Yes the skin should work with a simple remote. I've tried to focus on ensuring that I support mouse and 6 button remotes out of the box.

Hi,

I love your skin. It's really fantastic. How do I get those views to work?

If I'm not mistaken, those views got removed? I could be wrong though

More than happy to do what little I can. Sorry for the response time; busy learning ins and outs of imgur (never used it before). 

A few things jumped out at me after a bit of extended use; some functional, some cosmetic and some because I probably don't know what I'm doing  . 

When you access the recordings, timers and timer rules sections, the icons are tiny; is that something I can change?



I also noticed that in your addons section, there is an option to change that view to a list orientation. Given how you feel about limiting views (I completely agree, BTW), would you consider offering a list view for the pvr folders (recordings, timers and timer rules)? 

Lastly (for now), when you search for "find similar" in a menu, in AH you get this:

 
And in Estuary, you get this:

  
I'll close by saying that AH does have some functionality that Estuary does not. You seem to have connected "recent recordings" to the TV Shows folder itself. We watched two shows (Designing Women and Chicago PD) from "TV Shows" and they got marked as watched wherever they appear in your skin. Estuary doesn't do that. THAT is a very cool feature.





Thanks again for all you do. I'm loving this skin.

OK, I am fine with it. I found the genres widget:

Would it be useful for these types of widgets (e.g. genres/countries/studios) to also have access to the "submenu" type of aspect (double row icons)?
