But I don't mean the background of fanart but of the complete view itself, like in the screenshots - meaning top and bottom of the skin. So that, for example, the view of the add-ons is also included.
If you're really interested in #2, I can hunt down where I made that change in my mod.

How does the Tv calculate it when you turn the color all the way off?
RE: Feature Requests - jjd-uk - 2023-03-14
I believe most media video is still stored as YCbCr in that case, and I'm not an expert, luma data could maybe produce a correct black and white image. But it's not something that could ever be done in a skin, it would need to be done by the core app video processing.

Because they mostly rely on a helper script what while acceptable for 3rd party skins is deemed too resource heavy and of not the necessary code quality for inclusion in the default skin.

I would really like a default skin configuration similar to popular streaming services. You know them, you've used them, Netflix, Prime, Disney, HBO.... it would be really amazing if Estuary had a brother that looked like that. Easy to add/remove media folders from the main menu, which would be connected to user specified smart playlists/folders... this would be amazing!
I'm already aware of workarounds such as Kodi 19 Matrix + Titan Bingie MOD, but this is not kept as up-to-date, and troubleshooting installation is getting harder and is more time-consuming than before. Would love to see Estuary step into this decade with a crisp GUI displaying landscape media thumbnails right off the bat. Plus, it's easier to teach non-tech people like a gf how to use it if it works like most online content (ie YouTube).
Really appreciate the hard work done on Kodi, it's powered my 3D/Projector/7.1 surround home theater for over 7 years now. Thanks for your consideration on my request!

a "Resume" button next to the Play button in DialogVideoInfo.xml would be useful
almost recommend checking resume state and replacing the Play with Resume but i dont think that is a good idea for everyone

There's already a "Resume" button defined in DialogVideoInfo (ID 9), but it isn't yet used in stock Estuary (or I didn't found it). I'll implement this in Estuary Mod V2. Changing the focus to Resume button if a resume state is detected (or in this case the percent played is greater then 0%) is better then replacing the Play button with Resume button I think

that works quite well, i duplicated button 8 and gave it id 9, it's disabled by default when you cant resume so rather than have an unhelpful extra button that is disabled i made it invisible if not enabled
just needs a proper icon now
<param name="visible" value="Control.IsEnabled(9)" />
-----
if anyone wants it, here's a 5 minute play button modded to be resume
its the same file that is already included in the skin so no outside sources used, just a slight adjustment to it

thanks but with respect i run on android which is already stressful for kodi in general so i dont run any other skins or extraneous addons
i run my own modified estuary which is slimmed down and occasionally i add a feature i feel would benefit all users such as this resume button so i propose it after ive already implemented it in mine
RE: Feature Requests - _BJ1 - 2023-07-27
Ah ok, I doesn't know that.
RE: Feature Requests - dvjrickkraft - 2023-08-16
Thanks for this lead! Although, I'm still talking about the -default- skin being laid out as Netflix/Prime/HBO Go etc. There's always the dream... 😅

the developers are hesitant to make changes to the default skin as it would affect *everyone* and if anything breaks new users are going to think kodi itself is broken resulting in poor public image for the entire project
i would like more features as well but i understand the reasoning
