I've never used that plugin so probalby something needs to be updated in my code to accomodate it. Will try and look into this soon.

Have you been able to check yet?

Hi I tried to look into it today, but it appears that CinemaVision isn't supported on Nexus (20.0), in which it wouldn't work with this skin. Is there a version that you are using on version 20?

It works on Nexus 100%, because quite recently I used it on a skin from @jurialmunkey (any of the Arctic). I'll check and let you know.

Thanks if you could let me know where to download it from, I'll check it out - I couldn't find it in the Nexus repository.

Both branches of service.cinemavision fail to install due to a python dependency error (version="2.25.0" not supported from Kodi 19+). I tried both branches of script.cinemavision. They both installed but both failed to run due to an error.

It looks like there has been no updates on Github in over a year for the script and 6 years for the services, and the website that all the documentation directs to (http://www.cinemavision.tv/) is suspended, so I'm not really able to figure this out. It does seem like it's not officially supported for 20.0 so I can't really put a lot of time into this unless there is a version available that works with Python 3.

I see. Thanks for taking the time to explain the problem.

Looking for an alternative to CinemaVision I found: PreShow Expierence - it is a continuation of the plugin and works on your skin Wink

Great thanks, please do let me know if you run into any skin-related issues with it. I am not sure my addon support is as robust as it could be right now.

Hi, i've been using this skin for a few weeks now and i love it. Thanks for your hard work!

I had a few ideas/suggestions for improvement (in my opinion):

1. Can you insert a view of the folder path somewhere (i.e. where the file is located and its name). Maybe in the info view? I often update my library with better releases and then it would be great to see the location path somewhere - to delete the right file.

2. Would it be possible to insert a system information button in the player OSD (CPU utilization, etc.)? Sometimes it's very interesting for me to check this while playing a file.

3. If you activate the automatic trailers in dark mode, they will also be played darker in fullscreen. Seems like the background is still over the trailer. If you play the trailer via the info view, this doesn't happen. Would it also be possible to play the trailer in the background (similar to Netflix)?

4. The info screen only shows films from e.g. Actors that are available locally. Would a TMDB integration be possible here? Just like embuary-info script does.

That's it for now.
Thank you and have a nice day.

Cheers

RE: Copacetic for Kodi Nexus - gwynnned - 2023-12-09

Hello

Using this skin for few weeks and really like it. Thanks

I'd like to have brighter backgrounds. Slider in settings only allow 50% max
I tried to manually edit settings.xml and change this value, but it doesn't work :
<setting id="home_background_brightness" type="string">100</setting>

Do anybody know how I can do ?

RE: Copacetic for Kodi Nexus - gwynnned - 2023-12-09

Responding to myself :

got it on home page by editing Colors.xml Home_Artwork_Diffuse variable

Can't find settings for billboard and list view...

Hi, I can add a setting if you have a particular value in mind. I found anything less than 50% and light backgrounds clashed with white text but if you have a value you like I'll add it, otherwise your changes will be overwritten every time you update the skin

Hey, thanks for the feedback. I'll add these as change requests and update when I have some time. 3 was a bug I noticed as well recently, it should be fixed soon in the Kodi repo

Thanks!

Well, I prefer to see a big, bright fanart picture (and a very minimalistic interface). You're absolutly right that it makes some text not readable (but, ultimately, I don't care).

Here are the changes that I made. It's really dirty hacks, but maybe someone else will find this helpful (if he have such strange tastes as me Smile

Code:
Colors.xml

ligne 173 : no dark on home screen

    <variable name="Home_Artwork_Diffuse">

        <value condition="Skin.String(Home_Background_Brightness,50)">$VAR[Brightness_100]</value>

        <value condition="Skin.String(Home_Background_Brightness,25)">$VAR[Brightness_100]</value>

        <value>$VAR[Brightness_100]</value>

    </variable>

ligne 197 : no dark on pause screen

    <variable name="Transparent_Dialog_Mask">

        <value condition="VideoPlayer.IsFullscreen">$VAR[Alpha_0]$VAR[Dark_Hex]</value>

        <value>$VAR[Alpha_50]$VAR[Dark_Hex]</value>

    </variable>

Templates_Artwork.xml

Ligne 45 : no dark on billboard and list views

                <include content="Dialog_Over_Artwork_Fadediffuse_Animation" />

                <animation effect="fadediffuse" end="01808080" time="0" condition="$PARAM[art_diffuse]">Conditional</animation>

Components_Home.xml

Ligne 116 : Home list at bottom

        <param name="top" default="95%" />
