Great skin by the way appreciate everything
Been trying to setup my own build for myself and having an issue
Quick question if someone can help out, I'm trying to move the date&time bar to the top of the screen in Kodi. Currently in your Mod this is only possible in Vertical Mode. What script or .xml would I go to change this?
Thanks
Hey,
I'm still reletivly new to Kodi, and have installed this skin (which is awesome!!) and am playing around with settings etc ... but I have a couple of questions. I'm not big into coding and haven't edited any code within Kodi, but am willing to give it ago if that's what I need to do.
1) Sets. I have quite a few 'movie sets' (Halloween, Friday 13th etc) which I would live to display as sets. I have enabled 'Movie Sets' under settings but the films do not display as sets. I don't have any set artwork for them so how do I go about getting this to happen.
2) Media Cases. How can I get my covers to display with the cases, BluRay etc? Is this only available in certain views or again have I missed something.
Thank you in advance, and I apologise as I am sure these have been asked before
...
i got some questions...
im now on Kodi Jarvis, and installed the jarvis build from github.
The Script next tv show, i got it installed but i never saw it running? or where will it be shown? i don't even know how to use it?
Next question is, can i somewhere activate that when the widgets are enabled and are "searching" that it is visible?
because now i have the problem that it just appears when it finished looking and finds entry. but i want it always visible even when it is searching..?

Hi InkandDrink,
For no#1 you'll probably have to do some of the following:
1) Group your movies into sets, if you don't use a media manager (Medlech, Ember, Tiny etc. etc.) then you can do this in kodi, when on a film press c for the context movie, then it should be manage and finally manage move set, you should get a window which will list any existing sets you have in Kodi already, if you have none this will be empty, you then need to select on the right something like 'add a set', this then allows you to type in a movie set name which the film will be assigned to. Job done, but kodi doesn't actually turn it into a movie set until there is more than one film in the set, so you'll need to find the next film for the set and repeat the press c, manage, manage movie set but this time you should have the existing set listed which you just selected and there you go.
Rinse and repeat for all your sets and movies to get them all group into their movie sets or try scraping your library into a media manager, most will update the movie set, you just need to save the changes which updates the .nfo for the movies and then re-scrape your library so the latest nfo changes are applied to Kodi.
2) For artwork you need to look into the addon movieset artwork automator, but you have to spend the time with fanart.tv, tmdb.org and google search to find the images for your movieset, fanart should be first stop as this can have posters, banners, logos etc. etc. You'll need to download these and then either use MAA addon or do it manually via pressing c again then manage, then choose art and then selecting whichever art you want to assign i.e. poster then find the file and select. You have to repeat this press c.... and so on for each piece of art you want to assign. Unless you setup you movies and artwork for MAA to do it all for you.
for no#2 check your skin settings and then the view settings as well and see if you have all the correct settings applied for the cases.
Mike.

Hi shinoby,
do you mean the next aired script? you need to check skin settings If I remember correctly there is on connected to next aired but not sure if it's turn off or on.
You'll only see it in certain places, probably the landscape view for tvshows, but I'm not 100% on which of Mikes views show that. Other than that you could look at adding a next aired widget to one of your home menu options, this will generally show you what is airing today. The final option is generally to either go into addons and to the addon and launch it or add the addon as a sub-menu option to launch it that way to generally show you the next aired for the next week I think.
Mike.
Hello.
First thank you for the great skin. I love it alot.
I have a couple of question that I would like to ask.
1 - About Widgets. Is it possible to cache its contents, because right now, it take ~ 5sec to refresh.
Example: I put a widget to a movie addon in my Movie section (Trending Movies)
I also put another widget to a music addon in my Music section (Top albums)
When I switch from Movie to Music, the list of movies stay there for at least 5 sec before it is refresh with new albums.
2 - In Confluence skin, I can assign a small list of addons that is displayed when I select Movie section. These addons have their icons displayed under the section.
In Aeon Silvo, I want to have the same thing, but it seems I have to use Widgets to display the Addons.
The problem by doing this way, is that ALL the addons will be displayed. There is no way for me to only select a small list.
Is there a work around?
I don't want to put the addons in the submenu, because the submenu is only text and it's small.
Thanks in advance

That's great. Thank you so much for your help Mike.
@Ink and drink,
There's also a very good FAQ on movieset in this post
2040815 (post)
just page down a bit for a imgur gallery showing moviesets and movieset artwork automater. This should set up movie set for any skin.
Sorry i have to post it again because i can remember that this issue was only in the latest Isengaard Branch for kodi 15.2
But I have to say...that i changed now to Kodi 16 RC1 and installed the latest Jarvis Branch from github as ZIP File.
and this bug here in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qunWHqRH6MM
the Freezing is still existing :-(((
I used a fresh start and just installed aeon.nox.silvo. Still this freezing is there.
I tested it on 2 Android devices, on amazon Fire Tv stick and on Samsung Galaxy Tab...
There has to be a fix...i don't know why is this happening?
I tested now from Kodi 16 install through official repo Aeon Nox: REDUX
this one does not have this freezing bug....
Someone said that this issue cannot be fixed because it is just on android...but i don't get it what is changed that this is appearing?
Anyone here that using android device and aeon.nox silvo without this issue

You can try the Super Favourites addon, assigned as a widget.

Have you ever tried the repo version (as in the Mr Silvo's own repo, linked to and detailed in the first two posts of the thread) - in the repo versions the various skin textures are optimised in a textures.xbt file, which could potentially improve the lag you are experiencing. Whilst there's no Jarvis version on his repo at this time, if you have previously tried it on Isengard, it could at least potentially rule out one likely cause.

Thanks, I'll give it a try
Any thoughts on the future addition of a mixed Mixed Widget
??
NB - Screen Shot is the maxnox menu. It will added to silvo in time.
Trying to get this on Jarvis RC1 but getting a "dependencies not met" error. Will this get updated to fit the Jarvis needs?
Thanks
