Would be nice to see log file when update's failed. Also if you can, please delete folder with skin from addons folder: Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons and Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/addon_data after it you can try to install it again.
Here you have the log file https://pastebin.com/1K83ikBd

Ok, I know what is wrong. Somehow it does not see latest update which is 0.5.2 (0.5.1 is not on a server anymore). Please try to switch to estuary skin, then go to settings and try to update heppen's repository and try to update skin again as well.
If it will fail, please try to uninstall heppen's repository and add it again.
Waiting for your report after it!
It worked reinstaling de repository (I haven´t uninstalled it)

Thanks a lot for you help and for your work, this skin is a piece of art that you have taken to a whole new level!!!

Thank you very much Smile You helped to implement this even better than I wanted!) I'm really very glad Smile This is something completely new .. Now, probably the only thing that I would like is the ability to brightness the background on the main screen ..) Now I have a day  and the background is poorly visible ..

I have it on my TODO list. I though of it a bit how to implement this and have some ideas.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

It's okay!) I really liked this new feature!) Of course Smile I thanked bsoriano for his help before ...) Thank you very much bsoriano Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

I think that if you add a high brightness, the text will be slightly lost in the background and in fact, this darkness makes Netflix mode better and more interesting in my opinion Smile But if it is possible to implement it so that the possibility of increasing the background brightness would be possible (that is, everyone would  adjusted the brightness of the background as everyone wants) Well, I think if you have it in your plans now, then you will do it even better Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - Solo0815 - 2021-06-27

I suggest:
1. removing Window.IsVisible(videoosd) + in line 321 of Includes_OSD.xml because then you see the start- and endtime of the program, if you press up and down. Atm start- and endtime is only visible if you press "OK".

2. new channelnumber label is really big and overlaps channelname --> please make it a little bit smaller

Hmm.. Right! Thanks for pointing this out. I saw it but always forgot to change Tongue
Btw. Does switching channels by pressing up/down still does not works for you?


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - Solo0815 - 2021-06-27

I edited the upper post to add another issue. Pls have a look

channel switching with "up" and "down" and confirming it with "OK" does work and did always.
I'm talking about the channelswitcher with "up" and "down" after pressing "OK". (see pic: https://imgur.com/a/xAghkoJ)
And: I can't open any info(text) about the actual playing program you talked about. "I" does also display only the "normal" LiveTV-OSD.
Do you have a screenshot of the infoscreen?


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

Seeing that you have added a dark / white background overlay function, I was so delighted! But as it turned out, it is so bright that it spoils the entire skin, unfortunately (I think maybe, if not too much brightness, it will not spoil the main Netflix menu, but it's very bright)) I turned it on and all the data was simply lost against the background of such a bright background: D All the same, darkening is best suited!) But 20-30% I think during the day it would be enough for the eyes in terms of the clarity of the background Smile


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

And in general, probably no brightness is needed at allSmile I made sure that this is how it should be in the darkened form!) A bright background turns out to spoil everything very much( And I was thinking all the time how beautiful it would be with a bright background)) Rofl

Please tell me how can I enable channel numbers to see it as a pic  Undecided I want to reproduce this on my machine.

Can confirm it works here on my CE and Linux laptop as well so I'm not sure what could cause it :/
Also recorded a video to show it is really works: https://streamable.com/3l5y5q

Hmm... I don't. What exactly info screen it should open? This: https://imgur.com/okYDNX5 or that: https://imgur.com/1eZf5yH

Yes I added it. But I added it to make an option to set your own background picture. In this case you will have a little bit more control over what will be displayed in the background.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

But even in dark mode, you can add your own background at will) I just thought that you added so that I would understand that a bright background is not at all what I imagined)) In general, everything was fine from the beginning Smile I am very sorry that you got almost week with this request related to the background and the possibility of fanart rotation .. But the fact that you added a fanart button, I am very grateful to you!) Now I think it might be possible in DialogVideoInfo to remove the bottom part where the fanart is visible so that the only way to see the fanart was the 'Fanart' button I apologize again for the long message!) From now on, of course, I will not write so much Rofl


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Resurrection - jokero009 - 2021-06-27

Now I can officially say that for me this is the perfect skin in all plans!) Now the only thing I would probably like in the future if you liked that previous idea) This is the implementation of the trailer in the form of a separate windowImage and a landscapeImage
