What exactly is not working? Marking recordings as watched seems to be no problem.

Watching a recording to the end does not result in it being marked as watched. Choosing 'Mark as Watched' from the context menu causes the blue triangle to appear (but stretched horizontally) - but then exiting the recordings screen and re-entering again the blue triangle is gone. I'm using the mythtv-cmyth PVR backend and I can check in mythweb - the recordings are not marked as watched there either. Mark as Watched works fine for videos (movies, TV shows).

This should work: http://pastebin.com/TPayuZTZ

Thanks soooo much I can finally upgrade! Also thanks to the original modder "GuiZ" It's my favorite view in kodi.
Hi and thanks a lot for patching Ace skin which is, by far, my favorite Smile
However I have an issue using your version. I've updated to kodi 14.1 from gotham, I've uninstalled previous Ace skin, then installed yours (downloaded today on github) trough the "install addon from zip file" method.

When I enter my movie library then enter into a saga (Die hard collection for example) untill there all works fine, but when I exit the saga to go back into the library, it leads me to the beginning of the library and the movies are no more gathered into sagas.
If I exit the movie library and return into it, movies sagas are restored. And the process repeats like this indefinitely Sad

Regards.
Alright finally upgraded to Kodi now that Ace is supported. Have not ran into any issues yet. But if could get clarification on few things: for the right list banner mod how do I get that work? How do I get disc art and movie set info? Is there a way to change the spinning disc so it doesn't have the second ring!

Thanks!

I've just tried this with a different skin and it doesn't work there either, so sorry for raising it - it's clearly not a bug in Ace.
@muCkk
Thanks for all your hard work on this I was gutted when I noticed it wasn't available.
One thing I have noticed is when I open up openelec configuration addon the window pops up semi transparent and in the confluence style is that just me?
Also if you read this could you just point me in the right place to change what recently added shows.
I want the music to show recently added albums instead of songs, and also is it possible to get recently added TV shows to show the program name instead of per episode ie: Walking Dead 1 new episode added etc etc.
Thanks again
Hey Steve, to change your selection from Music on the main menu go right and then up and press OK. That will change what is shown in the widget. If, when you press ok, it takes you to the program addons screen then you are missing the Skin Widgets addon. If that is the case you can install it by going to...

Settings
Add-ons
Get add-ons
XBMC/Kodi add-on repository

Skin Widgets

Thx for your great work, i love ACE skin
Hello,

First thanks for the update! Ace skin rules! Smile

I just updated to your version. I was running the original version even though it was marked incompatible, but I was running into some problems, then I found this thread and updated.

There is one issue I am still having with Ace, when I click on Movies in the main menu, I have this screen loading:
Image

I think it is the themoviedb.org addon loading, but I don't know why. It didn't do this before, started happening last week or so. This behavior only happens with the Ace skin. Any ideas how to get rid of this? Am I the only one?

Thanks!
