Okay thank you i will set a spotlight to try and fix it, im using this on a laptop but the resolution is still kinda wierd im not sure how to explain it but it looks much clearer on arctic horizon or auramod, when i look at the back button i can even see it pixelated around the edges and stuff.

Regarding the resolution thing I realized what i had wrong on my laptop was that the resolution was on 1360 or whatever, i changed it to 1280x720 and it looked better atleast so i thought, but everytime i go into fullscreen it goes back into the 1360 resolution in the settings but now for some reason i cant tell if this is just a placebo, it looks better anyway. The poster resolution still looks like it could be slightly better but the text on the main menu labels on the left look proper now it used to look squished. anyways just ignore this part cause i have no idea what im talking about.

If someone can help get that box all the way around the poster correctly to help me from getting annoyed everytime i see it would be much appreciated.

The fonts in bingie mod skin not support vietnamese character.
And the Addon you used is illegal and not supported by kodi communication

Yep, I could bring back the original font (if this was working for Vietnamese characters) but would need some work to make sure its now compatible with all the cosmetic changes we made first.

I have spent so many hours selecting artwork and putting together Tags and custom smart playlists to make my build look just like Netflix the thought of starting over makes me feel ill and is the my very last option that I'm not ready to entertain.

Btw, can you take a screenshot of the new look of the latest infopanel diffuse? I'd like to see the difference.

I never use it but since Achilles was doing some work on it, I thought I'd make the text clearer.
Previous vs New

Nice! This is the diffuse for infopanel that I wanted, the plot is much more readable. Can you point me which xml is this?

xml:
<!-- background -->

            <control type="image">

                <width>100%</width>

                <height>100%</height>

                <colordiffuse>ff000000</colordiffuse>

Not sure but a couple things come to mind.

1. Playlists shouldn't be affected by the database. You should be able to just copy your playlists over from your playlist folder.

2. If you use Artworkbeef to download all your artwork, it’s stored locally in their respective TV and movie folders. So when you copy over the necessary folders the new database can be built from them including the artwork.


No idea if there’s a better way that can fix your database though. Pretty sure Kodi 18 will have differently named databases so you probably can’t just transfer the whole Kodi Data folder over but your addon folder and other user data should be transferable.

The original skin creator Cartman made it work like this. To be honest, I don't know for sure what I'm telling you is right as the only addon I'm using as a widget is the Netflix addon.  It's really not that bad. Flatten the season level and it goes straight to episode view.  Yeah, you don't all the seasons listed together on the left but you do get all the episodes from each season on the right and you do get the correct season displaying on the left.

No idea how auramod works.  And it's not something I'm personally capable of implementing.  So it has a Netflix style episode view that works for addons?

As I mentioned previously, switch off "fixed frame in home and hubs". This isn't currently supported as it's broken in a couple of ways.  We took it out, brought it back for testing purposes and forgot to disable it for users. 

I understand what you're saying about the font looking "squished". The correct resolution for the skin is 1080p which is 1920x1080.  This is the correct option you need to select in your Kodi display settings.  Set it (with fullscreen enabled) and then reboot Kodi for it to display properly and then check your display settings again to make sure it sticks.

If your laptop doesn't support that then I guess the next best thing is 1280x720. And as I mentioned, set it (with full screen enabled) and then reboot Kodi.
