Does anybody on here knows how to get an icon to show as thumbnail for a playlist added as an addon on ccm..
To be more clear...I made a playlist with some videos...then added this playlist to favourites...then chose a thumb for this playlist instead of default playlist icon,,,then went to skin settings and added this as an addon to show on homescreen menu...the problem is that the icon for this playlist is not showing and only I can only see the dafault playlist icon...playing around with gui settings and linking to icon didn't help either...I know there is a setting on Hybrid skin from the same men who done ccm to change icons of homescreen addons and items but can't see how it can be done on CCM..

For those asking if CCM works on Isengard...yes it does...been using it for a while on a Rpi2 with openelec 5.95.3

The only one issue I found then, was that the repo update option (now located on the side menu bar of Confluence) was missing. That was a very important option for me, so I downgraded back to Helix.

Now that Isengard has finally been released officially, is above still an issue?

The option wasn't necessarily missing in CCM, it is no longer an option to manually refresh a repo as of Isengard, it is an automatic procedure when you reboot Kodi.

yes, it works. But it misses a lot of development default Confluence had:
Gotham: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=158812
Helix: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=194515
Isengard: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=211896
Jarvis: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=231270

Compare that to gitversion CCM 3.0.13 (in addon manager it says 3.0.15 is installed)

Most of mentioned stuff isn't working with CCM.

Do you have any idea about my issue??thanks

thewarm · 2015-08-12, 16:06

I'm using CCM with Kodi 15.0 on Win7 x86. I am using CCM on a upnp client.
I have a question about TV Shows using upnp. Is there any way to skip past the season and go directly to the episodes?
I have the 'video\library\flatten tv show seasons' set to 'always'. Makes no difference.

I know this is a Kodi issue, not a skin issue... anyone have any ideas please?

Thanks for a great skin (and a great media center)

A small cosmetic bug:

When videos have the HEV1 format, the 'HEVC'-icon (as per decision of the XBMC dev-team) should be shown. Right now, this is the case for Confluence but not yet for CCM Helix. So, for the both the HEVC and HEV1 type videos, the HEVC 265 icon should be displayed in the video's information block.

Thanks in advance for updating the CCM Helix skin and keep up the good work :o)

No developer is working on this skin, seems to be in abandoned status now.

Quick one for those trying to add a playlist as addon in CCm and can't get their thumbnail to show..I managed by adding playlist to superfavourites..adding thumbnail on their then adding it to kodi favourites and add it as addon from skin settings as normal and voila

jcorsaut · 2015-08-18, 15:33

Just a quick question...

If I go into my video addons section, select a video addon, look at some episodes and then hit esc on my remote/keyboard I go back to my main menu (this is what I want).

If I go back into my video addons section again, I go right back to where I was before. Previous selected addon, same episode/tree level. (not what I want).

I would like to be able go back to the top/main menu of my video addons everytime from the kodi home screen. Is this a skin or kodi setting I've missed. Could it be how I've mapped my keyboard controls?

Any help is appreciated.

**jdf76** · 2015-08-21, 06:30

hey could someone help me out and tell me where i can find all the scripts/configs for the music sections. I'd like to take a stab at making a change to fit what I am trying to do, which is make it work like it's a video rather than an audio.

thanks in advance to anyone who can help!

myfototv · 2015-08-21, 14:37

Hi Community, A quick question.....

Can I have more than 10 SubMenu options. I have tried adding

Code:
<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.SubLiveTV.11.Label">Test2</setting>

<setting type="string" name="skin.ccm.helix.SubLiveTV.11.Path">somepath</setting>

The the guisettings.xml

But It wont show up even if I restart. Huh

Any Ideas, Thanks

OK! I have managed to add "Check For Updates" To the sideblade menu while you are in the Addon Browser!

File "AddonBrowser.xml" is located in the skin's 720p folder.

1 -Exit Kodi.
2 -Cut and paste the code below into a text file and save it on your desktop or some place where you can find it.
3 -Name that file AddonBrowser.xml.
4 -In the skins 720p folder RENAME AddonBrower.xml to AddonBrowser.old.
5 -Now copy your new .xml file into the 720p folder.
6 -Restart Kodi

If there are problems just exit Kodi and delete the new .xml file and rename the .old file back to .xml and restart kodi.

@flhthemi: Thanks!

damn when will be released for CCM for Isengard ? Sad

Probably never. It's strange that forum says his last visit was today, yet his last post was from April.
