Any chance for 21:9 support?

Yes,  I'm a newbie and first time posting. .My apologies if I mess up. I've learned how to edit the home.xml to change the position of my main menu to the top but now I need to change the error and update dialog message box to bottom. What line number do I edit?

This skin is incredible and amazing.. Thxs for listening. .

Great skin!   But how can I disable those checkmarks on watched items in the list view?

Code:

<variable name="AudioFlagVar">
<value condition="String.Contains(ListItem.Filename,atmos)">atmos</value>
<value condition="String.Contains(ListItem.Filename,dts-x)">dts-x</value>
<value condition="String.Contains(ListItem.Filename,dtsx)">dts-x</value>
<value>$INFO[ListItem.AudioCodec]</value>
</variable>
<variable name="PlayerAudioFlagVar">
<value condition="String.Contains(Player.Filenameandpath,atmos)">atmos</value>
<value condition="String.Contains(Player.Filenameandpath,dts-x)">dtsx</value>
<value condition="String.Contains(Player.Filenameandpath,dtsx)">dtsx</value>
<value>$INFO[VideoPlayer.AudioCodec]</value>
</variable>

Then search and replace all instances of $INFO[ListItem.AudioCodec to $VAR[AudioFlagVar and $INFO[VideoPlayer.AudioCodec to $VAR[PlayerAudioFlagVar.

Then add your flag images to the skins media/flags/colored if using colored flags or default if using default flags folder and name them atmos.png and dtsx.png. After that you need to add either atmos, dts-x, or dtsx to the filename and rescrape if not already in the filename.

Think that should do it...  

Thank you! Spot on. Is it possible for me to modify the associated files before installation of the skin? My Nvidia Shield and LibreELEC Intel NUC devices have Atmos setups, and though my Apple TV 4K isn't capable of putting out these formats anyway, I am a bit obsessive about keeping my interfaces in sync. I am using the latest (1/30/18) Apple TV build of Kodi 17.6 - but unlike my Shield and LibreELEC, I cannot access the Apple TV's filesystem for post-install edits.

The installation keeps failing when I try to install a pre-modified / re-zipped copy of the skin on my Apple TV. (It works fine otherwise - and the same failure occurs on my other systems if I modify files and re-zip.) I've impacted ONLY the items listed here prior to re-zip/attempted install. Something in Kodi must not like that I'm unzipping, modifying files and re-zipping the skin installation file. I am changing nothing at all with the directory structure or filename.

hi,

i don't know if it was postet before. But I have a question about the Live-TV Infobar.
I have some Trouble with the start time of the actual running Program. See the screenshots:

      

The real starting time is 16:40 but in the Infobar it is always 1 h before the aktual time.
If I take a look a infobar at 17:15 then it is 16:15 as starting time shown.

I'm using the leia-version from your resposity.

thx

I had to replace the SSD in my Chromebox running LibreElec with the AN Silvo skin. Everything went smoothly with the exception that a couple of backgrounds on the main menu were missing. When I tried to reset them in skin settings I just get this window when trying to select the image folder for the backgrounds-



I can’t navigate to any other location from this window. Tried removing and reinstalling the skin but that didn’t help. Was finally able to restore the backgrounds by manually editing the skin.xml file. It looks like the browser window is pointing to a repo site but I don’t understand why it would?

This is a Bug in Leia, which is already reported as Trac Nr. 17754

i didn't like the text on the disc while playing music either, so i edited the MusicVisualisation.xml in skin.aeon.nox.silvo\16x9:
https://pastebin.com/uQYsRwrr


i also changed the blank disc and default discs in skin.aeon.nox.silvo\extras\cdart to this:

So you can backup your MusicVisualisation.xml and blank/default disc.png,
then replace/edit with the stuff above and it will look like this:

 I only saw this today! Thanks so much for this! You rock dude!

Would anyone happen to know where in the xml settings where I can change the default menu from 5 items to 3 items directly without using skin shortcuts? I can change the horizontal to vertical easy enough in the xml but finding the location or id that changes from 5 items to 3 items directly in addons I was not able to find, Thank you for the help and sorry for the noob question.

Thank you very much!

Still requesting some advice if anyone can chime in on this, thank you again!

I don’t know which xml file to edit, but it’s very easy to remove unwanted main menu items in System>Interface>Configure skin>Setup the Aeon Nox main menu.

From here you can reorder menu items, change backgrounds, add and remove menu and submenu items, etc.

(2018-01-24, 10:53)Maaarv Wrote: [ -> ]yeah my question seems a bit strange but the problem I have is that I listen to a lot music with multiple artists.
Sometimes it happens that skin helper service doesn't find a logo for the main artist and so the logo for one of the featured artists is shown instead.
In such a case I'd just prefer seeing the involved artists without any logo.
That's why I'm asking that question

Ask a question and get a good answer

I'll add an option to only use local art as soon as I can.

Please remind me if I do not within the month as I am typing this being very tired and on the way to sleepytown...  

just reminding

How do I go about getting the Choose Art to allow me to choose a Logo (also ClearArt and Disc Art)?

I go into Information for a movie and select Choose Art but the only options I get are Poster and Fanart:


I have all of the Required and Recommended addons installed, but can't seem to figure out how to get Logo, ClearArt and Disc Art on here.

Thanks,
Doc

Is this on every video? Also, what artwork add-on are you using?

I have discovered that, in the context menu, under "Manage," using "Select artwork" brings me to the screen in your screenshot, while "Choose Art" offers the ability to Browse - and at that point I can choose "*Item Folder."

If it is only a certain few videos that you run into this with, there may not be enough artwork at TheMovieDB or fanart.tv. (Have you entered your API key for fanart.tv?)

Poster and standard Fanart are the two most likely items that you WILL see when nobody has spent the time to create customized artwork for the particular video/film.

a) If this is limited to a few videos, use Google Image search and add the image files (if any) that you want to the folder where your movie is stored, and use the Choose Art---->Browse--->*Item Folder method.
b) If this is global (all video files), let's revisit what artwork downloader you are using.

Let me know and I'll try to help if I can.

Love this skin, keep up the good work, one issue though, that I can't seem to find the option to change, when in full screen music with disc and cover, they disappear after a few 
seconds, is there an option to change this.

It is on every video. I'm using Artwork Downloader (https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=114633).

When I go to Choose Art, the only options I have are Poster and FanArt, I manually added "Logo" and "Clear Logo" to the list by clicking "Add art" next to the x, assigned the clear logo to it, but it does not appear in Logo view.
