I have a problem as soon as I work with 2 profiles. Different menu items are not available or can not be selected (have no effect).
However, only under Kodi 17.1, not with SPMC 16.6.0. Can anybody confirm this?
For example under Settings / PVR & Live TV / General => Clear data, Group manager etc. does not work.
@jurialmunkey
Perhaps this is an error from skinshortcuts?

I have "Show All items entry" enabled along with "Flatten hierarchy" and "Flatten TV show seasons". The "Show All" entry doesn't seem to change anything, while the other two affect the season nodes correctly.

I know I'm missing something obvious. Anyone?
For tvshows, in the header the skin uses the pattern TvShowTitle - FolderName
So when they are flattened I guess Kodi calls the folder name by the show title rather than "*All Seasons" like it would if it wasn't flattened and you just selected the *All Seasons folder from the seasons level of the library.

I made a fix on github for this so it will only show TvShowTitle if it matches the FolderName to avoid the double up.

tnx
Hide empty tv shows? Where is this setting?
I see "Show empty tv shows" in Settings > Library > Video, is that what you are talking about?
Or are you talking about "Hide Watched" from the side menu?

I don't really understand how you end up with an empty tv show anyway? What is the point of having an empty tv show in your library?

Does it happen with anything other than PVR? I no longer have a working PVR setup so I can't really test this if it is only related to PVR stuff unfortunately.

Never mind, this is not a skin related issue, sorry
But just for the reference, this is what i was talking about, and where i found a fix > http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=302484

One reason, at least for me, would be the easy way to find out (or be reminded of) the premiere date for the new shows I'm interested in.

I make empty folders for the upcoming shows and get the air date via the next aired add-on or from the info in the bottom left corner when I select the show from my library.

Ah ok, makes sense.

I use trakt watchlist for that.

You're a bonafide wizard! Thanks a lot. Works perfectly.

yes, for example: watched state can not be changed (no effect) or menu entry is hidden (but it does work) etc.

@enhde - the labels dissappearing after loading a profile is a known kodi bug. Only work around I know is to reload the skin (which can be done from the shutdown menu - press s)

Really appreciate all the work you have put into the skin! My question was, is there a way to have more than one Widget in the home-menu?
EDIT by jurialmunkey: no discussion of banned piracy add-ons thanks. I've edited your post to remove the reference to the banned add-ons. Future posts discussing banned add-ons will be deleted.

Hello, great skin! one of my favorite!

I have a question about the weather widget. If I change the skin default weather icons, the widget doesn't work properly, I mean that there are no icons in the widget.

Can i work around?

Please check the following gallery for explanation.

thanks!

Long time user here, using latest stable release from Kodi repo. Maybe this is dumb, but is weather widget only available on vertical mode? I'm not able to use it on horizontal mode. Am I doing something wrong?

yes, you can.

1. enable a weather addon (example OpenWeatherMap)
2. into settings > skin > background: Set weather fanart (weather fan art Multi)
3. create a new item in the Home menu: in the top row (choose item for menu) select common > weather; in the widget row now you should be able to select the weather fanart widget

So my only option for the weather widget to be available is to download the weather fanart multi background? I have an Amazon Fire TV box with kind of limited storage, so sadly this won't be an option for me. Thanks for your detailed response, though.
