Yes, I fixed the window you circled from the main menu. You can disable CU LRC Lyrics by going to the add-on config and select Options > Display Lyrics Automatically. I'm still unable to reproduce the artwork problem in music viz.
EDIT: Where they came from = what addon grabbed them not the site. I'll try to figure this out later via debug logs.
It sounds like your fix will make the display match the config better which means I'd no longer see those images. In a lot of cases those images are better than what I have currently have locally.
Thanks
@latts9923 I think I figured this out by digging through the logs.
It looks like 'script.skin.helper.service' is pulling them from fanart.tv, potentially at the direction of 'script.module.metadatautils'.
I'll try to play around with the settings later to see if I can get them displayed as the music visualization background.
EDIT: I seem to have finally figured this fanart issue out. Sorry for all the noise and time wasted on this, and thanks for the inputs along the way.
So to get what was displaying in that red-circled main menu window as the music visualization background I needed:
- MUSIC menu -> 'ART' dropdown -> SETTINGS (VISUALIZATION WINDOW)
-- BACKGROUND IMAGE -> Slideshow
- 'ARTIST SLIDESHOW' addon -> Installed and configured:
-- 'IMAGES' -> 'DOWNLOAD IMAGES FROM FANART.TV'
I guess I never really payed this much attention to the settings. Also this might seem silly but I didn't immediately connect the music visualization 'BACKGROUND IMAGE -> Slideshow' setting to the Artist Slideshow addon. I must have had this set in the past because I know images I didn't have locally were part of the music visualization background.
Anyways thanks again. You probably don't get told enough but this is by far my favorite skin and you keeping it alive makes Kodi great (same thanks to the original author as well!).

RE: Aeon MQ 8 for Matrix - latts9923 - 2021-05-01
UPDATE #11 - This will update the skin to v1.0.1.1
Additions- I added the option to play music while on the home screen...similar to the Aeon Tajo skin. The setting to enable/disable the music is in Skin Settings > Main Menu and is named "PLAY MELODIES WHILE IN HOME SCREEN". The setting is disabled by default. Thanks to Uploadergt for the request!
- I added default and colored Australian MPAA icons. The labels available to use for the MPAA ratings are...AU-G, AU-PG, AU-M, AU-MA, AU-R, and AU-X. Thanks to dawsonjw for the request and the images!
Bug fixes- I fixed a problem where there was no default fanart displayed while browsing the Artists or playing a song if there was no extrafanart available. Thanks to Ambidex for reporting the bug!
Maintenance- I made some adjustments to the MPAA code to distinguish between US and Canadian ratings. Thanks to Juan Mortyme for the updated code!
There are also updated versions of the Colored Media Icons and Colored MPAA Icons add-ons available on my Leia repo.
RE: Aeon MQ 8 for Matrix - Ambidex - 2021-05-01
(2021-04-25, 04:15)Ambidex Wrote: Hi @latts9923. First off thanks for all the great work.
I think I found 2 bugs related to music playback.
1 - Music Visualization: up/down/left/right (next track / previous track / ...) controls usually don't work as expected in my scenario, I think it's related to disabling lyrics
To follow up on this up/down/left/right = lyrics issue, I’ve root caused it and in the end I’ll follow the previous suggestion to disable 'CU LRC Lyrics config -> Display Lyrics Automatically’ and call it a day.
The issue is due to how the CU LRC Lyrics plugin interacts with the skin when that plugin is running as a service (setting ‘Display Lyrics Automatically’ makes it run this way). It affects both the ‘no lyrics + no next track’ and the ‘no lyrics + next track’ Aeon MQ cases.
Here’s what’s happening:
1 - When running as a service CU LRC Lyrics runs in the background, watches for song changes, and looks up lyrics for new songs as they start playing.
2 - When CU LRC Lyrics successfully looks up lyrics and the music visualization is active, it launches it’s own window. It uses the skins own ‘<addon>/xml/script-cu-lrclyrics-main.xml’ to define that window, and part of that definition is the CU LRC Lyrics 110 control group.
3 - After 2 the CU LRC Lyrics window and 110 control group are active, whether we can actually see it or not. This is why the controls don’t immediately works as expected in the 'no lyric + no next track' or 'no lyrics + next track' views when CU LRC Lyrics runs as a service and we need to hit ESC first.
I’ve pasted logs below showing this. To avoid having to touch CU LRC Lyric plugin config I think the skin's ‘script-cu-lrclyrics-main.xml’ would have to indicate back to CU LRC Lyric that it should close its GUI window, and then CU LRC Lyric would have to close it. I tried making the 110 control group’s visibility False and then having CU LRC Lyrics close the window when this is the case. It works but Kodi itself spits out an error log saying it wanted to make 110 visible but can’t.
So in the end I’ll just disable the lyrics.
Thanks again for the help.

Hi Latts,
with the 1.1. I have one little bug. When changing the images of the artist slideshow in view 6, the going image is not completely hidden and mixes with the new image.
Greetings Uwe

I am unable to reproduce the problem in Layout 6...the current image fades out as the new image fades in every time.
