Incorrect. The only thing that doesn't work is the Android PIL python library in 14.0 and 14.1 which the extendedinfo script utilizes. Phil added a workaround to the git version but coincidentally 14.2 fixes the PIL library on Android. So technically extendedinfo IS compatible with Android and Kodi had a bug that didn't allow it to work.
Just use 14.2 or newer and it will work just fine.

Credit for this mod goes to mikesilvo164. The code used is taken directly from his skin mod, Nox 5 with Some Added Views (Helix). It also incorporates a handwritten CD-R created by manfeed from this thread.
Together, the result is the Artist Slideshow below:
Artist Slideshow with Disc Art:
Artist Slideshow with Handwritten CD-R:
The slideshow supports the use of artist logos, but I don’t have any logos to test.
You will need:- MusicVisualisation.xml
- Font.xml
- blank.png (fallback CD art)
- fafers.ttf (required font file)
Installation Instructions:
- Add the modified MusicVisualisation.xml and font.xml to your addons/aeon.nox.5/1080i folder.
- The blank.png image should be placed in addons/aeon.nox.5/extras/cdart.
- Lastly, add the font fafers.ttf to addons/aeon.nox.5/fonts.
Play a track and press Tab to enter full-screen playback.
If using Artist Slideshow, fanart images can sometimes take a minute to load.

Hi,
Loving the improved music visualisation. Just wondering if it is easy/possible for me to tweak it to do a couple of things.
- Whilst the visualisation runs now when a song is played, it just by default shows the fanart. Is it possible to show the track info, spinning cd etc automatically?
- The "next tracks" list at the bottom starts with (1). Would it be possible to amend this to show the track number rather than sequential numbers from 1? Just seems more logical to me.
Any advice would be much appreciated!

I tried your finished RightList and think it's now the best view in your skin. I wish BigNoid would consider something very similar for the main skin. I find it works well with every type of content and size of library (big or small).
Thanks Warner! Just curious which layout you like better, the alternate layout or the one with the year? Did I turn you to the dark side?

would it be possible to have the gloss/glass movie cases that are on mq5.
that right hand view is amazing mike.
thanks for all your hard work.
I may add this but am hesitant because I would need to add a selection dialog/popup to choose them and I am also not a fan of that particular style, it is an easy mod to do yourself. If you download the source from Git and install that in the addons folder (change the skin folder name to be skin.aeon.nox.silvo) go to media\thumbs\boxes you can replace any of the cases with whichever ones you choose.
Edit: Got bored and since I was working on RightList I started to add this. Does anyone think it looks good and should I keep going?
not sure since most areas would need to be resized unless there are better clear cases that don't have the side sticking out so far

- Do you concur?
- Is this also the case for script.skin.info.service?
Thanks!
choekstr is 100% correct and that issue would not affect skin.info.service

First one is easy... Just hit info to bring up the disc and cover art with artist/track info and never hit info again. It should then stay on till you hit info again even after stopping the music, starting it again, or exiting Kodi.
Hmmm. second one is something I did not add that is a mod by Warner and since he is hosting I can't change the files. I can however take a look at the code and figure out what you'd need to change. Unless Warner pops in to help with that.
mike i think i found some issue in right list view by season !!!
no logo in season view and there is no alternate layout ?!?
and one more question by season is a season poster in this season i have a different poster not similar to the season !??

Perfect - thanks Mike re the first one. Any help re the second would be great. Is there a good guide somewhere where I can learn re the structure of skins/ how they are made? I don't have the time (or skill!) to create from scratch, but it would be nice to be able to tinker
