RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - Dom61 - 2024-11-27
Thank you for this new version and the long work you put into it.
I wanted to ask when the selection from horizontal to vertical menu is made via the interface the screen turns black and you have to act via script, I ask if this process can be made possible via interface avoiding to act on the setting.xml file.
(I apologize for the Italian language interface)
Thank you

@Dom61
You're welcome!
Unfortunately, when the two scripts run they have to reload the skin to switch between the horizontal and vertical menus.

@latts9923
I did a test with a clean installation :
1- Install “repository.lattsrepo” and “script.skin.helper.colorpicker”.
2- Install the new skin via “LATTS KODI REPO”.
3- In the file “settings.xml” I also add the line about the vertical menu:
The switch between vertical and horizontal menu happens normally, at least this is what I verified.32 :<setting id="mainmenu_vertical_style" type="string">32</setting>
At this point I apologize for the stupid question, could the “setting.xml” file contain the line about the vertical menu by default or could it create problems?
Thank you

Rather than continuing to badger @latts9923 about what may be a problem on my end, may I please ask for someone to use Music Viz Layout 3 and tell me if you are cycling through multilogos above the Album name when listening to established Artists? I do not, when playing artists like A Perfect Circle, The Beatles, Jeff Beck or Jackson Browne, to name a few with hopes that others may have one of these in their library and can post your results.
For me, if an Artist does not have a logo it correctly shows the name in text, but if they do have a logo(s) I do not see anything displayed.
I have been able to fix my problem if I copy/paste the Multilogo code from Layout 4 to replace that in Layout 3. My old brain recallls it used to work, but has not for me for quite awhile.
Thx!

Could someone help with an explanation. I go to "Music" pick an artist and an album/cd. Each selection I make everything is on the right side or right view I guess.
I want everything in "Music" artists', album's, songs in wide view. How do I make this happen?
I want it to remain that way also.
Thanks

After the latest update i lost all my widgets, despite backup/reset/restore.
Then i pasted the value 100 in settings.xml in this line:
<setting id="widgets_size" type="string">100</setting>
Kodi restart - all fine, now i can change this value in skin-settings - main menu inside kodi.
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - latts9923 - 2024-11-28
@Dom61
Not a stupid question at all. If you install from scratch or reset the skin, the "mainmenu_vertical_style" setting will be included in settings.xml.
@jasn
I just compared the logo code between style3 and style4 and I think I might know what's wrong. If you go to SETTINGS ► SKIN SETTINGS ► CONTEXTUAL ART, under "ART - MUSIC" do you have it set to "PREFER: CLEARART"? If so, change that to CLEARLOGO. Now see if the logo displays for you with the default code in style3.
@melons2
Go to your Top Menu under "ORGANIZE" and enable "ENABLE FORCED VIEWS". Now with the three buttons below that you can force a view to be used for all Artists, Albums and Songs.
@Schenckmeier
Glad you got that figured out. Hmm..a skin reset should have added that to settings.xml. I'll take another look.

I did have same issue as @Schenckmeier. Once I added "100", as he did, to "<setting id="widgets_size" type="string"></setting>", then all was fine. After that, just to verify, that "skin reset" works I removed "100" from "<setting id="widgets_size" type="string">100</setting>" and run "skin reset". It does put "100" back into "<setting id="widgets_size" type="string">100</setting>" line. The only issue is that any customization to the "Settings" is removed, so to get back my "SETTINGS" customization I restored "Skin Helper Service Skin Backup".
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - latts9923 - 2024-11-28
@andrzejls
Thanks for verifying! I think I may have reproduced the problem that @Schenckmeier reported. I removed "100" from the "widgets_size" setting and backed up the settings. I then reset the skin, which restored "100" to "widgets_size". I then restored the backup, which removed "100" once again. So if a backup is created after installing the update, the new setting will be added to the settings file with an empty value and exported...which overwrites the reset after an import.

Exactly.
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - melons2 - 2024-11-28
I need to do a fresh install of the MOD but I keep getting "Failed to install a dependency".
How do I install MQ 9 MOD as a new fresh install?
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - latts9923 - 2024-11-28
@melons2
What dependency is failing to install? Also, make sure you have "UNKNOWN SOURCES" enabled and "UPDATE OFFICIAL ADD-ONS FROM" set to "ANY REPOSITORIES" in your Add-ons settings.
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - melons2 - 2024-11-28
@latts9923
I checked everything and all of my settings are correct, and all of the dependencies are already installed at higher versions.
Any other ideas?
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - Dom61 - 2024-11-28
@melons2
I don't know if it helps, yesterday when I did a test from scratch installing via repository the skin mod only required me to “script.skin.helper.colorpicker”.
RE: Aeon MQ 9 Mod for Kodi 21 (Omega) - melons2 - 2024-11-29
I have tried all the suggestions with no success. I have completely uninstalled the MQ 9 MOD. I cannot reinstall mod version 1.4.4. Does anyone know where I can download the original un-moded MQ9 to try installing that first.
I can't find a download link anywhere.
Thanks!
