Hey,

First off, thanks for this skin, I just switched to it and am impressed, wish I would have tried it sooner. I have donated for the work you have done and continue to do.

I have a few requests, please let me know if any of the below is already possible or if the request would not be possible:

1. Music Hub similar to how we have a Movie and TV Hub (with a ability to search music albums etc)

2. Ability to go to Information page rather than play the item
---- When selecting an item from the home Widget (Movies Spotlight/Recent Albums etc) or from the Hub playlist, it plays the item, I would rather it go to the information page (I have default select action in settings set to "Show Information")

3. Add scrollbar to music library big icons view
---- Currently there is no little scrollbar to select when you press "down" on the music library view when on Big Icons view to be able to skip a page at a time

4. Ability to press "Enter" to bring up submenu on main page (in addition to down)
---- If main menu item has no action tied to it, but has submenu items, enter should display sub items

5. When the submenu is active on the main page, pressing back should close the submenu, right now it takes to to "Now Playing" screen if something is playing

6. Option to always show (or automatically show) "Current Playlist" when now playing is music and you go to the now playing screen
-- If possible I would just love to make the playlist the "now playing" screen for music (full screen).

7. Ability to control the fanart animation speed (I want it to be a little more subtle/slower moving than it is now)

8. Don't use poster for hub playlist if no fanart exists...it just looks funny b/c it squishes and stretches the poster to fit

9. (I don't think this is skin related but just asking)...in the movies hub i have two smart playlists, p1 and p2. If I go into p1 and press right two times (to navigate the movies) go back and go into p2, it has also navigated 2 times.


Thanks

1. Not currently. However, extra hub options will come in future Jarvis updates.
2. Not possible. However, the latest Jarvis version of Arctic Zephyr on github has a feature where you can press Info on widgets to see Extended Info dialog.
3. Will fix when I get a chance. Thanks for reporting the issue.
4. This is covered in the FAQ thread. Set the Action for that item to SetFocus(302,0)
5. Unfortunately not possible to change - this annoys me too. The back action on home when something is playing is hardcoded in Kodi.
6. In the skin folder open up 1080i/MusicVisualisation.xml and add the following line just below the <defaultcontrol> line
Code:
<onload>ReplaceWindow(MusicPlaylist)</onload>

7. In 1080i/Includes.xml you can change the fanart animations on these lines (158-159)
Code:
<animation effect="zoom" start="110" end="130" center="auto" time="10000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>
<animation effect="slide" start="-30,-30" end="30,30" time="6000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>

8. I'll look into it.
9. Never noticed that before, but you are right. Definitely a kodi issue, not a skin one. Interesting that it does that though.
Arctic Fuse 2 - Alpha now available. Support me on Ko-fi.
