@aceuk
The colorpicker add-on is available in the Omega repo...the skin should auto install that. In your add-on settings, do you have install from any repo selected?

@newoski
I'll double check the code, but I'm with @MB1968. I'm pretty sure it requires ".hdr" and ".atmos" to be entered in the filename.

So I found it elsewhere and installed it (I will check that setting though).
I tried to install the skin which got as far as the circle going round with no progress. I pressed the backspace 4 times which has worked before but although it looked as if it restarted it did not progress. So now I'm stuck unable to change anything.
any ideas.

@aceuk
To try and fix the skin initialization freezing, I made a change a few updates ago requiring the script.embuary.helper add-on to be installed along with the skin on a fresh install. Can you verify that Embuary Helper installed?


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - aceuk - 2024-09-13

As I can't get into kodi I went to C:\Users\Blade\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\script.embuary.helper
I guess that means it is installed.

Is anyone else having problems with the Critics Consensus? I just did a fresh install and upon doing so, the Critics Consensus just has N/A in that field.  All the other fields such as the Rotten Tomatoes critics/audience, Metacritic, Awards, and Budget fields all populate.  I also have the options all setup correctly, so I'm not sure what I could be missing.

EDIT: omdbapi no longer provides this information.  Further details provided by olympia from the link below.

UPDATE #32 - This will update the skin to v1.3.3

Image Additions
  • I added a "RANDOM" option to the themes. When enabled, a different theme (minus the holidays) will be displayed. I used a random number generator to decide the next theme instead of just moving down the list in order like MQ 8. Thanks to hna71 for the request!
  • I added two new buttons to the top menu..."SHOW CHARACTERART IF MISSING" and "SHOW ACTRESS ART IF MISSING". If "EXTRA ART" is set to "CHARACTERART" and the video is missing characterart, you can display actress art by enabling "SHOW ACTRESS ART IF MISSING". Same thing for missing actress art by enabling "SHOW CHARACTERART IF MISSING". These two buttons are disabled by default. Thanks to martinsvision for the request!
  • I added KHZ, Kbps and BPM info to the media flags for songs in all views except View Type-01 and 18.
  • I added a "PLAY ALBUM" button to the music info screen for Albums.
  • I added the "SHOW DIFFUSE" setting in Litebox Settings to the default music fanart and the music info screen.

Image Bug fixes
  • The diffuse settings for Litebox were not working in the two Video Info screens.
  • The discart for layout 3D in music viz was positioned too low.

ImageMaintenance
  • The back of the jewel box will no longer display for Songs in List 3D and List 3D v2 unless the back image is present.
  • I made some tweaks to the code for List 3D and List 3D v2 for music...adjusting the position of images, removing extraneous code, etc.

I asked @henryjfry to add limit settings to clearart and clearlogo in the Artwork Beef add-on. You can download the new version (v0.28.8) by installing the henryjfry repo. Thanks to @henryjfry for the update!

It's a long way from being complete, but so far so good.


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - wags1 - 2024-09-19

@latts9923 Sweet!…definitely one of the options I miss from MQ8.


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - andrzejls - 2024-09-19

@latts9923. Looks great!


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - The Warrior - 2024-09-20

Amazing as always latts! Thanks for all that you do.


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - melons2 - 2024-09-20

Normally I go into the 'info" screen for a movie, and Rotten Tomatoes reviews and ratings numbers fill in just like movie budget and revenue and other things do.
Now, Rotten tomatoes numbers only fill in if I do a "Reload".
Can anyone tell me why?


RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - Jabroni - 2024-09-21

Hello, I installed this skin today and am impressed.  I do have one question:

I am using the Showcase view (view type 02) for movies, as that is the one I've always used in previous versions of MQ.  I'm noticing that the background fanart image is darkened quite a bit, especially at the top and bottom.  Is there a way to disable this darkening/dimming of the background fanart?

Thanks!

edit:  maybe what I'm looking for is the upper 2/3 or so not to be darkened, perhaps until the automatic panel appears there after a couple of seconds

From update 1.1.7

"There is also a new file named Includes_views.xml.custom that you will need to customize to display only the views you'd like to see. View Type-02 is commented out in this file as an example. "

Does this still apply? If so, please check the latest current Includes_views.xml.custom file.

I had to use an older version to uncomment views
