RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Babazoolay - 2019-03-23

Is there any way of replacing episode thumbnails with landscape fanart or is that something you can't control?


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - LeVvE - 2019-03-23

You've changed the setting tiles to be in capital letters e.g. "File Manager" instead of "File manager".

Big fan of this and would it be possible to do the same for the header?
"TV Shows" instead of "TV shows" etc, on the old AZ skin it was all in capital letters.

When I click on trailer it's supposed to launch YouTube but my kodi kicks me out.

I'm not at home to provide a log but I was wondering if this is a skin bug or a kodi bug or a YouTube bug?

Hey guys, love the skin. How can I put my favourite add-ons poster in widgets? Is it even possible?


Regards.

Hi,

Would it be possible down the line when you have time, to add the option for clearLogo on homeScreen like I did in the "Leia-Mod" ?

1.) Within the Information screen video information and sound information can get cutted as seen in in this screenshot:
2.) The information screen is fantastic and i love the similar movies section. Would like to see a second similar movies row, but instead of local similar movies i would like to see a suggestion of similar movies that isn't in my library Smile
3.) Imo in the top row the caps text should not be shown when not within a widget. It only displays the current selection which is visible when i don't have any widget or when I'm in the home menu. It only becomes neccessary when I'm currently in the widget selection, becuase then the menu isn't visible anymore.
3.) Not even sure about the "Home" text on the left as well. Would be more minimalistic without it^^
4.) How about configurable corners (except top left)? Currently the position of clock, now playing and codecs are fixed and assigned to one corner. I would like to assign those to different ones and also have more different options like rss feed or item count. So the user can assign to the corner what he wants to see there.
5) I love the white icons that come with your skin, I also tried to use them within library node editor. Unfortunately they are to small and get ugly by upscaling. Could you provide larger ones or svgs (if kodi can handle them)?
As mentioned before and already on your todo:
6) Icons on Homescreen Big Grin
7) Arrow Hints Wink
8) Visual support for the possible TimeShifting in PVR would be great Smile
9) An option for different widget sizes would be nice, so that we can get more rows within the vertical menu like with kodis default skin. For examples those big picutres are not needed for a nodes widget. Imo kodis default skin does a great job there

1. Yeah, not quite sure what to do about that. As you've probably noticed, the codec info only shows on that line if you've disabled the codec info in the bottom right. To free up space when the bottom right codecs are disabled, I might need to move the studio name down into the section where the genre info is.
2. I don't know of any addons that supply such functionality. SkinHelper widgets (which is what I use for the similar movies section) only shows items in the library.
3&4. Yeah I agree. Going to hide the header stuff unless widget is selected.
5. I wish that Kodi supported svg but it doesn't. All my icons come from https://iconmonstr.com/ - you can get different sizes there.
8. Yeah, this might be a while off seeing as I don't have a working pvr to test with.
9. The problem with different sized widgets is that the widgets will then be cut off half way down the screen (see screenshot below). Unlike Aura or Estuary, AZ2 has content shown in the bottom section of the screen, so there needs to be padding from the edge to prevent overlaps. Even if I disabled stuff like codecs on the home screen, having a setup like Estuary or Aura will break mouse support (which I'm making an effort to support in this skin). The only other option is to have a similarly size widget like in the submenu hub and then have an enforced gap between it and the next item - so that it effectively takes up the same space as other widgets, but just leaves blank space.

Is there any way to put the widgets with smaller landscape as you put in the screen? even though the last widget is cut before the end of the screen...

Thanks for this amazing job.

Also I can't seem to make rottentomatoes and metacritic ratings appear. It always gives me an error about skinhelper. Anyone knows why?

@jurialmunkey 

youve really outdone yourself this time. The skin looks fantastic. I spend hours just messing about with the settings and admiring how pretty it all looks (hopefully its not just me that does this lol). Appreciate all the effort you put into it. Thanks!

There are already clearlogos in home menu basic layout widget.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Rakudai - 2019-03-23

Hi guys, how can view how much movies i have?


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - stuomas - 2019-03-23

I noticed if I start a movie from its info screen, then stop, I cannot start that movie again before I restart Kodi, not from info screen or in movie list. Pressing play from info screen then just returns me back to movie list, and pressing play there, nothing happens.


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Rockafella83 - 2019-03-23

Concerning the ClearLogo on Home, is It in the Widget settings ? I don't see any options about it in the skin options..
