Lol, that's the fallback fake disc for when you don't have one scraped. Kind of forces you to find one

I do have discart it's just not displaying

I can only say it's working correctly in the skin, are you saying none of your discart is being shown at all?

HI im85288, a little bug: the imdb 250 MEDIAFLAG is superimposed on dvd and bluray MEDIAFLAG
tnx for your work

Hi mastervan, can you tell me where that happens or better still post a screenshot. Thanks

I don't think it's a skin issue, i think it's kodi/artwork downloader not setting it, if i do it manually it's work fine.

Version 1.0.77 is on the way to the repo.

This version syncs the recent music visualisation changes made in the base skin and fixes one or two bugs.

Hello Ian,

I figured out what was happening with the skin not working properly under Kodi 16. It seems that any time you select an option from the main menu, the skin would open a window called Custom_RSS, and it just go stuck there. I do not use RSS, so I went ahead and renamed that file (custom_rss.xml), and now the skin works fine

Thank you for your code changes for the USA rating flags issue. Unfortunately for me, it does not solve the problem, since my movies do not have the prefix Rated or USA or US in the MPAA field, they just have the rating itself and nothing else (R, PG, PG-13, G, etc.) Your code, for colored flags, is looking for either Rated R or USA:R, or US:R, but not just R. It does this for both R and G.

I do not know if I explained it correctly. If not, and you would like, I can send you an NFO file for one of my movies so that you can see what I mean.

I would change the code from:

Code:

<control type="image">
            <centertop>50%</centertop>
            <width>70</width>
            <height>50</height>
            <texture>colored/rating/MPAA_R_Certificate_US.png</texture>
            <visible>Container.Content(movies) + !IsEmpty(ListItem.Mpaa) + [SubString(ListItem.mpaa,US:R) | SubString(ListItem.mpaa,USA:R) | SubString(ListItem.mpaa,Rated R)] + Skin.HasSetting(furniture.flags.colour)</visible>
        </control>

To:

Code:

<control type="image">
            <centertop>50%</centertop>
            <width>70</width>
            <height>50</height>
            <texture>colored/rating/MPAA_R_Certificate_US.png</texture>
            <visible>Container.Content(movies) + !IsEmpty(ListItem.Mpaa) + [SubString(ListItem.mpaa,US:R) | SubString(ListItem.mpaa,USA:R) | SubString(ListItem.mpaa,Rated R) | SubString(ListItem.mpaa,R)] + !SubString(ListItem.Mpaa,nr) + Skin.HasSetting(furniture.flags.colour)</visible>
        </control>

What do you think?

Regards,

Bart

Hi Bart, I'm more than happy to go with your changes. Do you know how to submit a pull request? If not, maybe you can just send me the includes.xml with your changes applied.

Thanks Ian! I have not submitted a pull request before, but I am sure I can figure it out. If not, I will send you the includes.xml. Before submitting the pull request or sending you the file, I will make sure that the changes I made are consistent across all the USA ratings, not just R, and that they work with or without colored flags, so they apply to all use cases.

Regards,

Bart

Version 1.0.78 is in the repo

This version has some new icons on the video info screens thanks to @badaas, there's also now an option to play with the blur level applied to the background on the video info screen (the extended info one cannot be changed unfortunately).

Some examples, close to what badaas wanted (he wanted a blur level of 1) this is level 2:



Default is 10:



And extended info uses 20:



Option to set it can be found in Skin Settings->Furniture

This mod developed fantastic nice work
Thanks for the continuous flow of changes.
Unfortunately
I find the recent music screen change not really great. The biggest problem (in most skins) I find showing full screen artist fanart that's just pretty at high resolution graphics but many images are not.
There are also a few bugs in, playlist option does not work, lyrics gives the old screen back.
view aeon eq 6 for inspiration.
but maybe you can make something very similar you've done with the movie info screen. that would be really fantastic.

[LastDragon]

Version 1.0.60 has just been sent to the repo

This one has some tweaks to the vertical menu such as showing cases, showing the logo, being able to select the shown widget, showing more of the screen when focused and a few others I cannot recall.







ps. guys thanks for the feedback...I'll come back and read up in more detail at a later date

cheers

Hello,

How can i change the letters in the main menu? All letters are big, like SHOWS. I would like to have "Shows". But i can't find the option. In the normal option to customize the main menu, the letters are small.

And another question, in the second picture, how can i see this "quick switch option"?

[bsoriano]

Good evening Ian,

I created a pull request to fix the USA ratings flags. I hope I did it correctly. Please let me know. Thanks.

Also, regarding the issue I see that in the video info dialog the cast list is always positioned in the last cast member, I noticed that the extendedinfo video info dialog, the cast list is positioned on the first cast member, not the last. Is this because it is bringing the info from themoviedb and not from the Kodi local db?

Regards,

Bart

Seriously though, what are hub items and how do I use them?

Thanks, for the moment I'm not concentrating on the music area so want to keep the skin in sync with the base changes. The playlist option does not seem to work in the base skin either and I'm not sure what's broken there. Lyrics should be fixed now.

It's reverted back in the latest version, quick switch is found by navigating up from one of the posters on the widgets.

Should be fixed now, along with a few other changes such as making the duration flag fit better etc

Seriously though, what are hub items and how do I use them?

You can change your tv shows or movies home menu item to point at their equivalent hubs by going to customise home menu and selecting the common shortcut. Once you see the TV hub or Movies hub you will realise what the hub items are. They will be things such as Directors, Actors, Sets etc
