2. sure!     let's say we don't have any other shortcuts with "Movies" name (we erased the default one)
                now, skin settings -> Home -> Customise Home Screen -> New Shortcut -> Action -> Common -> Showcase Hub -> Label -> Movies -> Hub Widget -> pointing to video add-on tmdh and movies, trending today -> close and the back to home screen...now, for me, this shorcut doesn't show anything, on the home page...
If we go back to settings again, and change the name of the label from "Movies" to "Movie", just sayn'..., and then back to home, the showcase hub is perfect

Hope  you could replicate the bug, but it's not a big deal, really!
thanks! 

Ah okay - I think I know what is happening with the showcase issue. When you set the name "Movies" then skinshortcuts builds the default widget setup for the Movies widget group. However, due to some skinshortcuts bug, the widgets don't actually show in the widget section.

To fix it, basically you need to add a standard widget, build the menu, and then delete the widget:
1. In Home Customisation, go into the "Widgets" section of the "Movies" shortcut.
2. Add any widget (in the main widget section, not the hub widgets).
3. Go to the home screen to allow menu to build.
4. Go back to the customisation dialog and delete all the widgets in the widgets section.
5. Go back to home and allow the menu to rebuild.
6. Showcase hub should now show.

Basically the above forces the default widget group to be cleared so that the showcase hub can show up.

Still haven't had much luck replicating the Trakt issue - seems to be working fine for me. I don't normally use that feature though -- so I might try leaving it on and see if I can recreate the issue you're experiencing.   

Hi Jurialmunkey
i tried just and it worked! thanks!
...i saw the new arrangements inside home menu customization...no double folder, maybe it's better!
hope you will succeed with the trakt rating issue, but thanks anyway!

PKC is setting the incorrect content type. As you can see in the top right of screen, it is setting content to "Photos" -- which is NOT a valid content type. Valid content types are: files, songs, artists, albums, movies, tvshows, seasons, episodes, musicvideos, genres, years, actors, playlists, plugins, studios, directors, sets, tags, countries, roles, images

https://codedocs.xyz/AlwinEsch/kodi/group__python__xbmcplugin.html#gaa30572d1e5d9d589e1cd3bfc1e2318d6

The reason it still works in skins like Estuary and AZ2 is because those skins are more forgiving to addons that set invalid content types. With Arctic Horizon however, the skin is reliant on content type being valid to set the correct viewtype.

You will need to speak to the author of PKC and request that they set the correct content type of "images".
EDIT: I've reported the issue to the PKC author: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=262621&pid=2945791#pid2945791

Thx, have to try and see if it works when there are new updates available. Is it possible to also get an progress bar in the busy dialogue?

Favourites in a music sub menu



But when I go into an album its seeing it as a video (which effects all the context items like scan library, sorting etc)





I did think initially it was a kodi issue but I have tested in both estuary and az2 and both recognise the album properly as music when navigating to it via favourites.

(Its fine on all other sub menu hub thing menus. its only on favourites weirdly)

I'm sorry if this has been asked earlier. I read trough the last 30 pages without finding anything..
Is there a way to get the Info wall to get stick around even after adding several widgets?
Or is there any other way to always show the movie info?

1 quick question / request (otherwise it fits my needs perfectly !):

When Being in the full screen matrix / gallery, when scrolling down you see the letter of the alfabet of the titles. When I change the sort order to year or date added, and then scroll down, it shows the number "2" anywhere in the screen. Can that be disabled ?

Thanks !
