Any chance you can make the transition between pictures immediate or smoother? Currently I see the Kodi interface in between for split second on each transition.

Would be cool to also print the location. Or description of the picture, if it has one Smile

It's not possible to make the time bolder is it? As it's depending on the skin.

I also did get this error on one occation:

Code:
13:28:33.248 T:138088670288   ERROR: screensaver.unsplash-1.0.0-openURL Failed! <urlopen error [Errno 7] No address associated with hostname>

I'm using their source api which generates photo urls after given parameters....

However since there is interest in this plug-in Smile I'll move to thier more robust API which features metadata.

Not sure about the time, Issue is the fonts.xml and included fonts for your given skin. I believe I'm using a "standard" font name but it's actual parameters are set by the individual skin.

I can set a "Bold" style but the outcome may vary between skins.

Also, not sure why you're getting url errors, I'll make sure to set a fallback image when it happens.

Thx for the feedback. Smile

Just a heads up the "robust" API has A LOT of guidelines not bound to the simple api already in use. Example guidelines from the newer api (Cannot use the "Unsplash" name or logo).

I'm going to leave this screensaver alone since it breaks no api rules. I'll fix the current issues... while working on a new screensaver built using the robust unsplash API.

I would love to remove the darkened overlay at the bottom of the images.
Is this possible?

Has anything changed lately? Because for some weeks now I am getting an error on the screen when this addon kicks in (We couldn't find that photo). Is there a way to clear cache on it?

I have debugged it a little. It seems that with the default settings it does not show any photo. If I am choosing tags, photos started to appear. I reverted back to the Featured photo list and I started seeing the error again. Maybe the way that the Featured photos are being retrieved is not working anymore.
