There is a problem with latest Kodi 18 nightly build. Addon have stopped to work :

Code:

thanx for the heads-up!
recent kodi changes indeed broke the addon.
i'll submit a fixed version to the addon repo.

It would be helpful for users, if the ressoureces could be filtered
e.g: When a user wants to select "Movie genres fanart" then only ressources (zips) which are providing "Movie genres fanart" should be displayed and the user can select only from them ...

[ronie]

well, that's exactly what the addon does.
(see first post)

[finalmakerr]

Ronie thank you! This is exactly what i been looking for!
One issue i have is i want to display the current weather icons by using $INFO[Weather.fanartcode]
It's work fine when there are actual images files in the resources folder but when using InstallAddon / Your script it's pack them up as textures.xbt and therefore it's not working.

[MacGyver]

In order to get around the whole "no skin settings in containers" issue, what if you used the selection script to actually create a generic image add-on?

So when the user selects resource.images.languageflags.colour, that the script creates a "resource.images.languageflags.dynamic" folder and puts the contents of the selected image resource into it.

This would allow us to hardcode an image resource into container objects, but also allow the contents of that hard-coded resource to be changed.

This would all be unnecessary if we could simply use a skin setting variable in a container. Or did someone else come up with a way to do it by now.

Hello.

I want to specify in my skin via <onload> (only on first startup) that a specific weatherIcon package is used.
I can via RunScript(script.image.resource.select,property=weathericons&amp;type=resource.images.weathericons) open the dialog box, but I want to prevent the window from opening and select a specific addon.

How can I realize this? 
Thanks a lot

P.S.: I use Kodi 19

Edit: I was able to figure it out. It's quite simple via Skin.SetString()

Has anyone been able to get the "Get more..." item to work on Matrix? Is it known to be broken, or am I doing something wrong?

[ronie]

you're doing something wrong ;-p

[asm0dey]

A weird thing happens for me on Matrix: I can't install several skins because this addon can't be installed with the following error:

Code:

The dependency on script.image.resource.select version 0.1.1 could not be satisfied

[ronie]

no idea what the issue could be, i'm using manjaro linux as well without any problem.

perhaps a Debug Log would provide some relevant info...

[asm0dey]

Excuse me, I should have understood this myself. Here it is: https://paste.ofcode.org/imtjWt3HzNXC5dXYyRmXUj

[ronie]

thanx for the log, i had a look but i can't spot anything which would explain the issue.

to get around the problem, i would suggest to install th addon manually.
script.image.resource.select-3.0.2.zip

[asm0dey]

Somehow it helped! Still, a mystery for me why didn't it work.

Anyways, thank you for your help!
