Hmm... I have a good mood so I added something for our LiveTV recording guys:


Currently & upcoming recording info box (crossfades). Can be disabled and is only visible if a recording is sheduled and no media is playing.

Edit:
v4.2.6
• Fixed: Gui overlapping with enabled Kodi intro
• Added: Audio channel flags for video OSD and video info dialog
• Added: Audio codec flag in some views
• Changed: IMDb update script implementation for the recently released update
• Fixed: Small typos, conditions and things that I already forgot

Is there no proper flag for DTS HD (MA, HRA) ?
The displayed flag for these audio codecs is the Dolby HD one.

You are right. Never noticed it before. Will be changed tomorrow

Checked on git that they exist but are the same as True HD

[sualfred]

Yep. I will create new unique flags for each one, which is missing.

Thanks mate !

v4.2.7
• Added: Some new audio codec flags, including missing flags for DTS-HD/DTS-MA
• Fixed: Video OSD / Playercontrols dialog poster art workaround for Amazon Instant Video movie playback (Sandmann's plugin)
• Merged: FR translation
• And some cleanup

Hello sualfred:

I use external player and the intro video tries to open in that instance and fails.
It is expected so because of the path cannot be rendered:
special://skin/extras/intro/intro.mp4

Therefore, there is not an option to use the Startup Intro video if we use external player.
Of course, the path can be hard-coded in the startup XML but still the aesthetic effect is lost ...

Is there a way to bypass the external player / playercorefactory settings just for Intro and play in-line?

Just asking if there is a way to have best of the both worlds.

Thanks
GK.

As far the advancedsettings.xml doesn't support such a rule field, it isn't possible. Sry.

Hi sualfred:

I figured it out. Thanks for the clue ... playercorefactory lends a large array of exceptions/inclusions via rules.
The one below did the trick.

Code:

<playercorefactory>
<players>
   <player name="PotPlayer" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
     <filename>C:\Program Files (x86)\DAUM\PotPlayer\PotPlayerMini.exe</filename>    
     <args>"{1}" /fullscreen </args>
     <hidexbmc>true</hidexbmc>
     <hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
     <warpcursor>none</warpcursor>
   </player>
</players>
<rules action="prepend">
    <rule filename=".*intro.*" player="DVDPlayer"/>
    <rule filetypes="mkv|avi|iso|divx|flv|mov|mp4|mpeg|mpg|rm|rmvb|vob|wmv" player="PotPlayer"/>
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

Thanks a lot, I had the same problem. Although I knew how to apply those rules I was kind of too lazy to work it out myself.

I have a quick question though:
On Kodi startup "TV Shows" is highlighted in the main screen. Since I don't have a lot of TV shows I would like to have "Movies" selected on startup so my Fanart-Gallery is a bit more diverse in idle...
Is there a quick way to do this?

If you get bored, can you take a look at phil65 aeon nox version. His implementation of the extendedinfo script does pull the correct movie if the movie is in your database. As an example, I tested with the german movie downfall

thanks
