I was trying to think if the background customizer could have resulted in this, but don't see how it could. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Only happens in Mimic. Using Aeon mq as well and all is good. RE: Mimic for Helix - doeppi - 2014-12-22 Hey bryanbrazil, thank you for that great skin, very much appreciated!! Just a thing i noticed: Since one of the last updates the translation seems to be messed up a little, at least in german language. e.g. -"fixed" is translated into "behoben", which basically means "repaired" (as in "I fixed it!") -The "working" notification in the upper right says "funktioni" which isn't a german word at all... Any chance to fix that? Can I be of help there?

This skin will be on Transifex soon, until then you could update the German strings.po on git to match the English one.

I know Aeon Nox does, but ReFocus requires an edit to the DialogVideoInfo.xml file to enable full functionality. The edit adds an "Extras" button to the info screen, and this button uses the script to pull extras for that movie/show only. http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:VideoExtras (section 10.3) I'm not on Kodi 14 yet, so I can't test, but will be jumping over when stable. This is definitely my skin of choice, as it's beautiful. I have previously modified the reFred skin's DialogVideoInfo.xml file to make that skin work, so I wouldn't mind doing it here if needed. But I figured I'd ask first. Thanks for your help, and for an amazing skin!

I haven't removed anything related to the video extras addon, so if AN 5 supports it, Mimic should too.

You could probably add that add-on to the supported add-ons list, then, as AN5 works well with it. Thanks again for your work on this skin, I can't wait to try it out.(2014-12-23, 16:56)Tortuga Wrote: It's not listed in the OP, but I'm curious if this skin works with the VideoExtras add-on?

My fanart backgrounds have a bright/light blue overlay instead of the color in your screenshots. Any idea how? The background color is the only change in the the Black-Blue color scheme right?

Fanart overlay in other windows isn't configurable. You can always tweak the colors to suit your needs in the respective [color].xml though.

I would like to have the colors you see in your screenshots though. Any ideas what might be wrong? Also. Is it possible to turn off the plot/summary etc. in the bottom of the screen when skipping/seeking through a movie? I find it quite annoying because I can't read subtitles for a few seconds when I skip the video 30 seconds for example.

Edit: Tortuga makes a good point, may be screen differences. RE: Mimic for Helix - Bento - 2014-12-23 I am, stupid me... Will see if the colors match when browsing here with my HTPC.

I find it quite annoying because I can't read subtitles for a few seconds when I skip the video 30 seconds for example. My assumption is that if someone is skipping forward, they won't be interested in trying to read the subtitles. For now, best option might be to move the subtitles above the osd using the video calibration screen.

I don't need to re-read the plot when skipping forward as I know what I'm watching |
