 +1 for this, or at least to be able to select "action" when choosing widgets (like when choosing items for submenu) so i we add them manually by using pvr://channels/tv/groupname/
i did it by editing skin shortcuts xml but there's no way to do it directly other than using skin helper service widgets. but it's loading faster and is more stable if the direct shortcut is used.

It's both a program and video addon with non-game content types, the latter mainly to allow the user to use different viewtypes in skins that don't provide viewtypes for program addons.

It only displays under video add-ons for me, and is not available under programs at all as far as I can tell.

Using a hack of disguising it as a tvshows add-on is frustrating from the skinning side. It creates a self perpetuating cycle: you say there's no good viewtypes available in programs but how can skinners possibly make good viewtypes for your addon under programs if it doesn't exist there?

Quote: There is currently no content type for games in Kodi.

According to the python documentation there is a games content type, though I've never used it so I'm not sure how it works

Quote:I'll have to think about how to fix the paths issue, since the endpoint isn't really 'playable' like a video.

There's not much to think about. For a video add-on you just set IsPlayable property to false using setProperty('IsPlayable', 'false') and then set the IsFolder flag to false when adding the listitem via addDirectoryItem() and that will let you have an executable path.

I would like to Rais one request.

An option to remove all the language flaggs for audio and subtitles would be very welcome. They just clutter the otherwise very nice and clean look of the skin!

Please search github issues first. It has already been requested

You need to fix the space to enter the words inside the box in the Arabic language

I can't it's a kodi limitation with rtl languages and auto width buttons. This has been discussed before.

EDIT: actually I might've found a workaround by slicing the texture. Please try v0.2.20 of skin with v0.2.7 of texturemaker


RE: Arctic Horizon 2 - HFRR - 2022-07-03

Perfect skin thanks for your hard work.

"Select first unwatched tv show episode" Kodi option is not working with landscape combined ah2 viewtype.

Is there a way to have it working ?

Only the season button is considered the "viewtype" to kodi so only that rule applies to the season. The episodes in the combined view are essentially a widget on top.

If this behaviour is important to you then you would need to switch to a standard poster view for season and open episodes on click.

Thanks for your answer I will use another view. Sometimes it's too long to click to last episode 😁

Another little point on home widget if you click 'browse' the first click after that is not working. You need to click 2 time to navigate into season/episode. I don't know if it's me or my config.

The browse button from information page don't have this behavior.

Skinshortcuts doesn't have a way to browse the groupings so there's not really any way to do it other than manually.

In latest version I've added an "Action" button in the widgets dialog to edit the path. It's a bit janky due to the way I've repurposed an additional submenu for the widgets list - so you'll get the whole "ActivateWindow(Videos,path/to/your/content,return)" sometimes but it should work fine to edit out that extra stuff and leave only the path (or you can leave it in and edit around it)


RE: Arctic Horizon 2 - ChiTianJoPajie - 2022-07-04

Hi again! Can you help me, I was trying to install the latest versio of the skin and it says "Failed to install dependencies". But I already updated the TDMB Helper right before I try to update the skin, is there any other dependencies that I need to install before that? Thank You so much!


RE: Arctic Horizon 2 - pejamas - 2022-07-04

Script.texturemaker is the issue. Update to 0.2.7 from here: https://github.com/jurialmunkey/script.texturemaker/releases/tag/v0.2.7
