Still around and do you have time to give https://github.com/sualfred/skin.embuary...pect-ratio a try? I've added an 2:3 setting for posters. I do require some feedback since I don't have posters for EPG at all.

Sorry kept forgetting to check this. The new 2:3 setting is amazing!

[sualfred]

Perfect, thanks!

your skin is great as usually! i have a request, can you add blur effect to image background like plex media player? everything will more great than ever!

FYI

Changelog.txt = shows the content of changelog.txt if an addon has it

Hello German colleague.
How do you read .txt file content into the skin? I'm very curious!
I did not think that would work or did not see it anywhere.
If that were so easy, many custom skins would be misuse this to display additional custom/extended InfoLabels not set in kodi core.
Great thanks for a short information!

Via python.

Example:

Code:

RunScript(script.embuary.helper,action=txtfile,path=special://skin/changelog.txt,header=$LOCALIZE[24036])

or via property with a check

Code:

...
<onload>RunScript(script.embuary.helper,action=txtfile,path='"special://home/addons/$INFO[ListItem.Property(Addon.ID)]/changelog.txt"',property=LocalChangelog)</onload>
....
<control type="button">
<onclick>RunScript(script.embuary.helper,action=textviewer,header=changelog.txt,message='$ESCINFO[Window(home).Property(LocalChangelog)]')</onclick>
<visible>!String.IsEmpty(Window(home).Property(LocalChangelog)) + !String.IsEqual(ListItem.AddonNews,Window(home).Property(LocalChangelog))</visible>
</control>

Not sure if this is a skin issue or PKC issue but when on the home menu I can see my Recently Added movies widget but when I click to show information it doesn't go to the actual information screen showing cast, watch trailer, etc, it just gives me the movie plot like the screenshot below:



Not sure if this is intentional but thought I would ask the question. This also happens within the Movie Hub too on Latest Movies, Recently Added, recommended, etc but if I do show information on a suggestion widget movie then it works fine. TV shows are also unaffected as it's bringing you to the Browse Movie page, etc.

This doesn't happen on Aura skin as I tested it before this post.

Please do not mention/discuss add-ons which are on Kodi's banned add-on list. They are simply off-limits on this forum as per our forum rules (wiki).

What? The Movie Hub is the movie section of Embruary...

It is also a known banned add-on, and the name triggers the Kodi forum-bot. How nice is that?

Hi sualfred really like your skin only have one little issue for the moment. Don't know if it's because of kodi or your skin but time to time the OSD bar became mostly invisible here to screenshot to show you what I m talking about. Only way to fix it is to restart kodi.

@MrFoxx 
This is a PKC problem. Usually this only happens if the database structure is not 100% correct. We had that with the Emby addon and it was caused by a missing or wrong set value of the path or column of the episode table.

Edit:
@MrFoxx 
If you upload me your MyVideos116.db I can check which one is not correctly set and can report it to the dev.

Kodi issue on your end. A skin reload from the sidebar should also do the trick. 
If you post a log and might be able to point you to the right direction. Are you using profiles? If yes, this could be a reason.

Better watch out, it wouldn't be the first time that I "accidentally" moved a whole thread into the bin.

But we'll see if we can teach the forumbot some extra manners.

Hi so have been using your skin for like forever and I love it the wife loves it even the kids love it, I have 1 issue with the skin and it's this of a show doesn't have any artwork you get the blue landscape with the text, it only seems to affect widgets anyway to make it default to fanart if no show image?

Here's a pic of what I'm talking about
