Thanks for the update @latts9923 .

Can you tell me which versions of the needed addons we should have installed?

Like script.skin.helper.service, script.skin.helper.widgets, script.extendedinfo, script.module.metadatautils, etc, then I can make sure I have the correct versions installed, or perhaps you could zip up an addon pack and pin it to the 1st page?

Thanks again.

@oldpainless
You're welcome!

The add-on versions I have running are as follows...
1. Skin Helper Service - v1.1.31
2. Skin Helper Widgets - v1.0.38
3. Extended Info Script - v5.6.1 (available in my repo)
4. Metadatautils - v1.0.40

1, 2 and 4 are all available in the Marcelveldt repo.

Prefect - now I have fanart back, and no errors....many thanks.

Perhaps it might be worth considering listing these required versions on page 1 to avoid similar issues for others?

Thanks again.

UPDATE #92 - This will update the skin to v2.0.2.7

Additions

I added a new Batman theme to the Aeon MQ Skin Themes add-on. The theme has been added to the main download for the additional themes and is also available as a separate download with just this theme.
I also added a new Batman menu bar, font and visual effects. BE ADVISED...IF YOU SWITCH TO THE BATMAN MENU BAR (IT GETS SELECTED AFTER THE NEON MENU BAR IN SKIN SETTINGS) IT WILL ALTER MULTIPLE COLOR SETTINGS, SWITCH TO THE BATMAN THEME AND ENABLE THE BATMAN VISUAL EFFECTS. I HIGHLY SUGGEST LOADING THE FAVORITES SCRIPTS (UPDATED SCRIPTS & FAVORITES NOW AVAILABLE) AND SAVE YOUR SKIN SETTINGS BEFORE USING THE NEW BATMAN MENU BAR. Thanks to Shredder_guitar for the idea to add all the Batman settings!
I also added a new Batman pointer. This is available with the updated Favourites scripts.
I added the font glow to the unfocused menu items when switching to the Batman menu bar. I will add this option to the rest of the fonts as time permits.

Bug fixes

I fixed a problem where the logo would not display at the top in Video Info for episodes. Thanks to 521256 for reporting the bug!
I fixed a problem with KodiFlix where the poster was being displayed twice if you selected "OPEN CASES"...one poster would open with the case and the other poster would remain in position.
I fixed a problem with Video Info where duplicate info (Premiered, Country, etc.) was being displayed. Thanks to MB1968 for reporting the bug!

Maintenance

The logo and clearart setting for TV Shows in Right List will now display for the TV Show as well. Thanks to 521256 for the request!

Thanks for the update.

Sorry if it's a daft question, but from your post above there seems to be an open cases option/setting in Kodiflix - is that correct? If so, where do I find that option?

latts9923 · 2021-05-27, 13:48

@oldpainless
In the Top Menu for KodiFlix, look for the setting "OPEN CASES". It only displays for the "DEFAULT" and "DVDSHELF" layouts.

oldpainless · 2021-05-27, 15:38

Got it - thank you.

latts9923 · 2021-07-03, 02:17

UPDATE #93 - This will update the skin to v2.0.2.8

Additions

I added the back and spine images to Shelf 3D for Movies. I renamed the image thumbback.jpg to back.jpg to be consistent with Music art. Thanks to nomnom27 for the request!
I added the "DIALOGUE ACTRESS ART" setting in the Top Menu as well as the actress art in Video Info to Episodes. Thanks to Juan Mortyme for the request!
I added the "SHOW ACTRESS NAME" button in the Top Menu to TV Shows and Episodes for the Right List view. I also added the "EXTRA ART" button to Episodes. Thanks to Juan Mortyme for the request!

Bug fixes

I fixed a problem with the regular/animated focus surround for KodiFlixTV when the layout is Default and Center List is enabled. Thanks to andrzejls for reporting the bug!
I added more code to fix the overlapping info for TV Shows on the Video Info screen. Thanks to MB1968 for reporting the bug!
I fixed a problem with music viz with the Slideshow artwork setting enabled. If you are playing a song that displays artwork and then play a different song with no artwork available, it would continue to display the previous song's artwork. Thanks to Steel99 for reporting the bug!
I fixed a problem with KodiFlixTV where the episode thumbnail would slide to the left of the surround border when the "DEFAULT" layout and "CENTER LIST" was selected.
I fixed a problem with the Top Menu "ART" settings while viewing episodes. Selecting "DEFAULT FANART" will now display the default fanart image.

Maintenance

I increased the panel fanart size in Shelf 3D to be the same as Shelf 3D v2. Thanks to nomnom27 for the request!
The "ARTWORK BEEF FANART" artwork setting now displays in the Top Menu when viewing Seasons. Thanks to MB1968 for the request!

Hi latts I'm wondering if you can help me I'm running kodi 17.6 and your theme mod and have been having
scraper issues .not loading correct artwork so i use media centre master to generate nfo files the artwork loads up
ok but it doesn't load any disc info and the disk cover loads as a set disk not a dvd disk am i doing some thing wrong

cheers rew88

latts9923 · 2021-07-16, 13:31

@rew88
I'm not familiar with Media Centre Master. What filename are you giving your disc artwork? When you say disk cover do you mean poster?

media centre master is a renaming and scraper program the naming convention is as example city of angels (1998) both folder and file
if you see a set poster cover it is depicted as red with three dots or a standard dvd which is brown with DVD on the spline
