hello I do not speak English, I'm using a translator.
I do not know if it is a Bug, but it is happening to me, that I add widgets in favorites, so that it shows me minuatures, until there is everything right, except that when I click on a thumbnail, it does not do anything, it does not enter the saved favorite (it is a video from youtube). It only works if I enter favorites, the menu and then the thumbnail. I do not know if you understand ?

I have also solved this problem:
1) install skin helper service
2) Go to Skin Settings +
3) Choose widget
4) Default Widgets> skin helper service widgets> favorite favorites

I love this skin. But how do I set it up to look like this pic? I like to have movie widgets show up with fan art behind them. I'm unable to get this look. I installed on "Kodi Leia". Thanks.

Addon settings / configuration works fine. The only issue I have with this skin is when watching live TV, and because I have the "confirm channel selection with Enter" option active, pressing up / down to display the selected doesn't cause the channel info to appear, and pressing enter selects the channel blindly.

Cheers,

Hi. I also have the same problem with Configuration window, and I can't find the latest version on github from your link. I only see very old files of years ago. Can you please send the exact file you suggest?
By the way I have installed the 6.0.0 version from Kodi.

Edit: I can't delete the post. I found the theme on github and it works flawlessly! Thanks for the tip

Are there plans to update this so it works on Leia RC1 (and beyond)?

1. This GitHub link only shows up to the March 2016 v3.4:

https://github.com/braz96/skin.mimic

Is there a recent link?

2. Problem: This doesn't happen in the default Estuary skin, but on my custom Mimic home screen, I get annoying PIN/password prompts while clicking on non-protected menus like TV, Favorites, and power settings ...

Currently on CoreElec 8.95.5 with Mimic 6.0. Have had exactly same issues with older CoreElec/LibreElec versions, Mimic versions (July 2018) and also on Windows Kodi !

Please help.

3. Also any plans to support LibreElec/CoreElec settings?

1. I downloaded the master from that link. It's v6.0.0

2. There's no pin entry on anything. Maybe you did actually download v3.4 ?

3. No idea

Can you give me a direct link for 6.0? I can just see the Release list on above quoted list that ends at v3.4.

For PIN entry you first need to put in a PIN code 😎 The problem is that I get the PIN prompts almost everywhere on my customized home screen: I should only get this prompt for settings I chose.

Just click "clone or download" then "download zip".

Ok. On my phone it just shows v3.4. So I will need to go to my PC 🐈🐅
Hopefully someone can replicate my PIN prompting problem !

I do see my Mimic v6.0.0 now. But I still have the PIN menu pop up problem ...quite distracting.

Ok so I've been trying to get random fanart backgrounds for my Movie and Series menus in Mimic 6.0. Not possible. It seems that whole feature has been removed.

My first question is, why remove it? I never needed any widgets in the main menu. Instead it was cool to have continuously changing fanart of movies in my library showing when not actively using Kodi.
I just don't see the point of removing these kinds of options.

Does anyone know of any way to get it working again? I can manually set a single picture or even a folder of multiple pictures, I dd find the \Userdata\Thumbnails\ folder but not only are there many subfolders in there, it also has images of actors and netflix series etc in there. So that doesn't work.

I'm willing to try changing xml code and whatnot if necessary. Just need to know where to start.
