RE: Arctic: Zephyr - Razze - 2015-04-06
I know I brought it up before, but it still bothers me. The runtime is missing on every item on the home screen, at least on my rPi2 openELEC. The windows one has it with some exceptions.
And a missing rating, probably a corner case
Are these also from service.library.data.provider?
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - magy77 - 2015-04-06
Hey jurial,
The trailers in (in cinema) are all in english. Any chance to change this over kodi language option?
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - colbert - 2015-04-06
Just checking, but I went through all the views and (talking Movies section here) Media info with Extra Info checked seems to be the only way to see runtime, any possibility to add that to other views? I don't know about others but runtime is a much more useful bit of info than say, rating. Thanks for your help !

If kiosk mode is enabled and the default kodi play action is set to show info this is exactly what already happens
well not really, it does do similar to what I suggested but there is no discart and extrathumbs and no trailers plus the play would be better at the top and then cast, I know what you mean but this is why I suggested what I did as its just about there apart from trailers and the discart and extrathumbs
what is cinema experience ? by the way

Space is sometimes at a premium.These labels are set by kodi. I could match with a variable but I think its a bit of a waste of time to be honest. The only use case for codec info that I'm aware of is passthrough audio to a receiver as some receivers dont support all codec types or have specialised settings for certain codec types (e.g. Dolby vs DTS) - so I don't think its that big of a deal as you can still tell what codec it is and different regions are going to have their own variants of some anyway.

Right now it's currently one or another. I think it would be nice to see a Spotlight of both of these libraries at the same time, randomly.Unless I'm misunderstanding, what is wrong with adding the path for the combined widget as a custom widget path then adding the custom widget to the menu item? (Customise > Select Widget > Custom 1)

The only ones that dont are Icons, Big Icons, Thumbs, and Big List
Though I do have a change coming to the flags (on git) that will show duration instead of video codec for those views that don't have a duration in the list.
(2015-04-06, 23:11)meridius Wrote: what is cinema experience ? by the wayAn addon that shows trailers and things like that before playing the movie to give a feeling of being at the cinema.
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - namtih - 2015-04-07
1) The video addon "dokumonster.de" (german documentaries) allows only the views "Big wide" and "Preview" for the video list. Probably an issue of the addon and not your skin. Do you see any easy fix?
https://github.com/dersphere/plugin.video.dokumonster
2) Any chance to add an option to move the small "Loading..." spinner to the right corner without the text? I think it would be more smooth than the text and dark background with every new page.
Or someone has any other nice idea for a small loading indicator.

I'm not sure why. Which systems are you using? MySQL Backends? (All data helps)
Could be service.library.data.provider or any scrapper filling the database.
I'll try to look into it later today.

If it sets as episodes then you get all views that have landscape artwork. If it sets as movies then you get all views.

2. This is a case of damned if you, damned if you dont. In eminence I had a small spinner in the corner and I get complaints that its not obvious enough and should be centered on the screen. In this skin people complain about it being the other way around! I think having an option for this is excessive - this is something that will have to be left up to user mods.

Nothing fancy, no shared databases or NAS storage or anything like that.

Thanks for the reply.
In a previous post, you suggested using the code:
Code:
plugin://service.library.data.provider?type=randommovies+randomepisodes&reload=$INFO[Window.Property(randommovies)]$INFO[Window.Property(randomepisodes)]I created "Custom 1" using this suggested code within Settings > Skin Settings > Widgets, but I don't see where/how to implement this to the "Home" screen Spotlight. I figured out that I can implement this to Home screen menu items (i.e. "Movies", "TV Shows", etc), but I haven't figured out how to do this for the overall Home screen Spotlight specifically.
Maybe I'm missing something....
Thanks for your continued help.
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - colbert - 2015-04-07
Any way to have weather has the widget on main menu? I have no widgets on any item (Movies, TV, etc.) so I'm in skin settings > customise main > Widgets, could I put something in Custom widget 1 and have weather just stay on the main menu then as the widget? I don't find the default widget scrolling through movies to be useful for me so just checking, thanks !

If you set the slideshow path then the default widget wont show. Then you can select show weather widget from home options. Alternatively you can set individual backgrounds/slideshows for each menu item individually. The last option is if you set weather fanart in skinsettings > backgrounds then set each individual menu item widget to weather in the home customisation screen. Each eay acheives a slightly different result in terms of what is displayed as the background.

Hi,
Is TVheadend PVR backend supported on this skin? I'm looking to buy a MOI+ PVR box that runs it, but want to ensure I'll be able to use the PVR fully. (set timers etc.)
Thanks
RE: Arctic: Zephyr - jurialmunkey - 2015-04-07
Yep I use tvheadend on openelec

I think 1100 deals with it? (Via a response to my response to you).
