Go to Settings > Interface Settings > Skin > Colors

and change the color to either dark (grey) or darker (black) as per your choice.

hello jurial, another thing, could you make provision for IMDb ratings in these two windows:

I comprehend that it may not be possible to generate IMDb ratings for seasons, but if in the 1st screenshot window, IMDb rating for the tv show itself would be shown, it would be nice - because as you can see tvdb shows 0.0 rating

Like AZ1 this is an amazing skin!

One thing I'm missing is a "Square Wall" view (thumbnail view) when browsing files. I have a lot of loose clips, trailers etc. that cannot be scanned into a library. Currently, Videos -> Files -> Source only provides a single view, "List".

Thank you!

Do you have all 3 API keys added? With all three API keys, lookup is almost immediate on my system. 

I thought only OMDb api provides the ratings. what has fanart and tmdb got to do with it?

Skin Helper grabs artwork from tmdb and fanarttv. It also grabs info and ratings from tmdb. If you don't have api keys for them then skin helper adds a delay to avoid overloading tmdb and fanarttv servers with requests.

Please try v0.9.21-alpha7 - it should be fixed now.

RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - LeVvE - 2019-04-01

When you go into sets you always get some side scrolling collections view and can't be changed. Any plans to let us change it in the future?

Not sure if it's like this anywhere else, I've only seen it like this in sets.

Also, don't know if you've answered this already but can you add a button to toggle lyrics in the music OSD?

I can't get it to work on Android TV with the "auto load" toggle and I don't have a keyboard plugged in to open it.

You need to change the shortcut to point to the sets section of the video library. It is currently pointing to the Sets Hub.
Customise Home > Action > Video Library > Movies > Sets > Create Shortcut Here.

I'll look at adding a lyrics button. Though I've found lrclyrics is really buggy in Leia and creates heaps of lag on my system.

Ratings work fine for me.

Also, star rating is library rating.

That's strange. Ratings for TV shows aren't showing up on my side. Do I have to configure some settings for IMDb ratings for tv shows to show up?

Do ratings show in list view? What scraper are you using?


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - buxtonlad - 2019-04-01

Hi. Having a button within the music osd for lyrics would be fantastic. I know you referred to it lagging for you but running your skin on a Nvidia shield TV and it absolutely flies.

I do unsterstand that, but clicking through the views I did not see many differences, but perhaps I should take a better look...

Edit: 
Am I correct it only swaps the position of the plot and the posters in the poster showcase and landscape showcase views? Isn't it just easier to add those views to the view list, instead of making it another option in the skin settings?

Edit 2: the repo is still at 0.9.19, where github already has 0.9.20. 
(2019-04-01, 02:11)jurialmunkey Wrote: Yes, the option makes the showcase views use the same alignment as Aura.
I thought so, but it confused me a little as it was not an entirely new view. Perhaps naming this specific option differently, like it is done with mediainfo viewtypes, would make it clearer.
(2019-04-01, 02:11)jurialmunkey Wrote: No, it's a bad idea to have many views as it makes the skin heavier. Every view that is created is loaded into memory and then shown depending on a visibility condition. Having an option to instead swap views makes the skin much lighter - this is the same reason why I had options in AZ1 for enabling certain parts of views rather than just have separate views for the slightly modified view.
Aha, didn't know that, but that makes a lot of sense. Could you place all "position swap options" directly under each other in the skin menu, instead of some options between them?
(2019-04-01, 02:11)jurialmunkey Wrote: I'm not maintaining the repo, drinfernoo is. He has said he will try to do nightly updates. Github will always have the most recent release and repo will always lag slightly behind. You can always install from github if you want the most recent release. 
Yes, I know that, and that is entirely understandable and ok. Just read something about 0.9.20 and tried to update using the repo. It is great to have a jurial-repo


Thanks for explaining. All clear now! 👍😊


RE: Arctic: Zephyr 2 - Baubas - 2019-04-01

When I first go to my shows or movies the first tile , the one with the return arrow, is using (I think) the Shield TV pattern. The one with all the triangles. How do I make these blank tiles just solid black?
