Hi everyone,
I love Arctic, I tried many other skin and it is the best combination of clearness and menu customization.
I was able to install Arctic skin a couple of weeks ago and now I am not able to find it anymore on the Kodi-add-on-repo.
Is there is any alternative source for installing it?

FYI [I have the skin installed on a Pi2 + Recalbox with kodi and I would like to install it on an other device.]

I was using Kodi 16.1 so after updating to the 17.0 beta 7 I was able to install Arctic Zephir. (Recalbox come with Kodi 15.1 by default which is compatible with the skin).

Hey Jurial, glad to see you updating the skin some more!

I was wondering how easy it would be for you to change the information the PVR screens display. I've noticed that an episode's title doesn't appear on any part of the screen, which can make it difficult to navigate.

This is how my recordings of Swamp Thing are displayed in AZ, for example:



And here is what they look like in the new default skin:



As you can see, the name of the episode, "This Old house of Myan," is displayed in a few spots. Would it be possible to have the episode title be displayed underneath the show name on the left hand side in AZ? Maybe even a few other bits of info, like duration, if it can fit?

Thanks again for all your hard work!

Hi jurialmunkey,

Can you please place an option in to disable the watched/not watched icons on the movie/tv shows cover art? I would prefer not to see them. It looks a lot cleaner without them.

Thanks

[.:B:.]

Jurialmonkey, I have a question - I just updated to LibreELEC's latest alpha (.10), and to your most recent git (hash ccaa4cf). Whereas watched movies are hidden when I tick 'hide watched', with series that doesn't happen. The series still shows in the series overview and it shows as unwatched, but when I click it all episodes are hidden (since they are watched).

I had this behaviour on Kodi 16 as well, it seemingly popped up halfway.

Hi.

I'm new Arctic: Zephyr, but I really like it. I have a Clean install with new years eve's nightly (KodiSetup-20161231-08255bc-Krypton)

I have two questions that I haven't found the answer to in the thread:

1. The posters are a bit truncated. It seems as the height/width ratio is a little bit off, or that the Picture is zoomed in. This doesn't look good as some vital information is cut

watch gallery

Compared to Estuary

watch gallery

Is there anything I can adjust myself?

2. I'd prefer if the selected movie wouldn't lay above the next in line. In MediaPortal, I know where to adjust this, but in Kodi I have no idea. Any tips?

3. When I choose Library in Settings, nothing happens. Estuary works as expected, it opens the settings for library. Known/unknown bug or just me?

Thanks in advance!

Edit:
The first one was easy - changing scale > stretch in View_53_Poster (for Big Icons).

Regarding #3, try fischgourmet's approach in post 2624:

If you figure out how to shift the text up and maybe even manage to make room for a few extra lines of information, please let me know I've been wanting to do the same for some time now.

Hi guys,

I love that skin, thanks for your work on it!!!

I'm trying to assign a custom video playlist as background on one menu item... but it always display the widget one...
It works just after a reboot and seems to be rolled back to widget list instead as soon as the widget get loaded.

I have the same behaviour for movies but movies is worse its directly the widget playlist instead of the background one.

I found this which seems normal: .kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.skinshortcuts\skin.arctic.zephyr.properties

Code:

['mainmenu', '31002', 'widgetaspect', u'Poster'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'background', u'playlistBackground'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'backgroundName', u'(Video Playlist) TV Shows to watch'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'backgroundPlaylist', u'special://profile/playlists/video/TVShowsToWatch.xsp'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'backgroundPlaylistName', u'(Video Playlist) TV Shows to watch'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'widget', u'Library'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'widgetName', u'In progress TV shows'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'widgetType', u'tvshows'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'widgetTarget', u'videos'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'widgetPath', u'library://video/inprogressshows.xml/'],
['mainmenu', '31002', 'icon', 'special://skin/extras/icons/tvshows.png']

A little help will be great!

Thanks

Thanks for this skin, lots of options to customise. Love it.

Will the actual version of this skin still work with Jarvis? If not, where can I get a version that works with Jarvis? I'm having stuttering issues with Krypton. So I need to go back to the old version.

thanks. Checked that first but only saw the actual version. Wasn't aware that you could change the version in the menue.

@jurialmunkey:
My x265 1080p Files show the SD icon. Why is that? Isn't there a correct icon for those files?

[KODser]

hello everyone, can I activate the "SetFocus(9601)" (plot overlay) on programs like advanced launcher and advanced emulator launcher. I already mapped a key on the xml file but only works for movies and series.

<keymap><global><keyboard><key id="61519">SetFocus(9601)</key></keyboard></global></keymap>

thanks for the help in advance
best regards

You have to switch the branch, here is the direct link: https://github.com/jurialmunkey/skin.arc...ree/Jarvis

@jurialmunkey I was wondering if you could also display the progress bar of my media play back when I press the enter key to bring up play back controls. Some times I like to see where I'm at in a movie with out bring up the info overlay up that covers 1/3 of the screen.

BTW This skin is still the best
