RE: CCM for Helix - elikoko - 2015-01-12
Hi, thanks for your work.
I'm using Hybrid skin on Gotham, and it have a lot of widgets including "Favorites", which I love to use for most of my menus.
Will you be adding those widgets, and specially the favorites to CCM Helix?
Thanks
RE: CCM for Helix - Mudislander - 2015-01-12
For the guys who want a lower menu bar, where should all the other furniture be placed? The addon icons covering the now playing info is a big NONO

Will be adding more choices - Weather, Next-Aired, to name a few. The favourites widget was never one of my favourites - pun not intended
Lots of issues with art work sizes not being uniform, however I'm willing to add it in if you guy's will use it.

I was wondering if you can change your widget script for recent movies so when a user <onclicks> a item it pops up a menu to either play the trailer or the movie?
Thanks!
Been thinking about this, not something I'd use personally, what do other guys think?
I remember it was discussed previously in CCM. For me it would make sense if it could follow normal confluence, ie: if we have 'choose' selected in video file settings it would be nice to get the standard context menu from a widget item too, so that we can Play, Show Information, or do More. This would also give access to the trailer.
On a similar subject, and since you just mentioned the weather widget, it would also be nice if changing location can now be possible directly from the widget.

Re: Number of Icons - I see your point... I generally don't have more than 4 or 5 in my set up so it's never been to much of an issue for me before. I also recall that the Icons scrolled sideways??

re: lower menu bar
1) I personally turn off the "now playing info" in settings so I never run into this situation. For those using "now playing info", it looks like the 7 add-on shortcut icons could be spaced closer together. Would that solve the issue of the icons overlapping with "now playing"?
2) My other thought would be to move widgets up into the space between the Kodi logo (left) and time (right). That might give enough space to move the add-on shortcuts up as well?
3) If all else fails, decrease the size of the add-on shortcuts to fit them in?
Having the ability to have both the lower menu bar and seven add-on shortcuts is something I really enjoy about CCM, so hopefully everyone can help determine a solution.
Keep up the great work Mudislander, your skin is getting more brilliant everyday.
RE: CCM for Helix - flhthemi - 2015-01-12
Lower the Menu Bar to the very bottom (with enough room for the drop panel), move the RSS feed to the top between the Kodi logo and time and place the power and favourites buttons ABOVE the menu bar?
Or maybe something like this (done kinda quick but you get the idea)
RE: CCM for Helix - FrodoPL - 2015-01-12
Mudislander, larger posters. PLEASE!

Lower the menu bar is a must have and also to hide/remove bottom bar, like it was in Frodo/Gotham versions
RE: CCM for Helix - erichter - 2015-01-12
2 quick requests please:
1. Show the plot of the movie/episode when paused, like in your old skin. That was a fantastic feature.
2. Is it possible to have a quick link when browsing a list that links directly to a trailer? I _believe_ Hybrid has this.
RE: CCM for Helix - Mudislander - 2015-01-12
Thanks for the input Guys.
Another screenshot, this one has labels and some images stretched out to show you the actual room they take, also what about addons on the top ?
Another option would leave the icons just above the menu bar as in first screenshot and if there is media playing then only allow 5 addons to show
Does everyone need labels on the addons, isn't the icon enough?
@jcorsaut - don't think we should squash up the addons, next users will be saying there's plenty of rom to have 10,12,15.........
@flhthemi - looks interesting, but I think we need more room for RSS (Do users ever have it turned on?) also we'll get the too low brigade starting up.
@FrodoPL - Those actually don't look bad, who did the MOD?
@T-bird_se - are you talking about an option to remove the floor?
RE: CCM for Helix - VonMaterhorn - 2015-01-12
I'm having problems displaying thumbnails in "Recent Episodes" widget the same way its displayed in Confluence. Instead it displays the fanart.
Any way of fixing thing?

Both are on the to-do list, once the Home Screen is sorted
Actually want to use Hybrid style floor buttons with the trailer button, but they only work in list type views not fullwall panel types

Someone who prefers thumbnails ? ? ? ? ? ?
Actually you got me, I said CCM-Helix should be the same as default confluence on initial install. So I'll change the widget back to showing thumbnails with the option to use the fanart for those who don't want to see images that give away any part of the storyline.
