When the search dialog appeared, the programme title was blank.
One of the shows had 2 'New' episodes playing back-to-back and after I searched for it, poster artwork also showed up for the 2nd episode as well. Don't think that would have happened previously, so there is some progress 

Your settings have wrong old character.Need to write new...

(2021-07-03, 14:20)Dumyat Wrote: [ -> ]Yeah, I'm using local artwork for my next up items as well, especially my (Now-Next TV Channel View). Then I realised this was also affecting my Next-UP dialog pop-up that appears 30 seconds before the next programmes starts. If skin helper definitely can't fetch 'next-up' items, then I'm happy to continue with using local artwork.....Something, is better than nothing! 

OK

Code:

<setting id="pvr_art_stripchars" default="true">New:|(|)|:|;|\&quot;|`|_new|new_|\&apos;"/</setting>

For official repo ...too complicate for me., i don't have a good opinion on how to change something or upload new script on Kodi repo.
Maybe another member of the github kodi-community will try to upload on Kodi repo.

Maybe @sualfred can help with this? He's worked on some of the Kodi community addons before and PRed some updates to the Kodi repo.

@Angelinas

If you have time, can you look at the code to pull top250 for tvshows?

Thanks

Can this help to get the newest versions of the skin helper service script as well as its dependencies into the Kodi v19 repo, @Angelinas?

I think the arrow module needs to be updated.  I'm getting the following skin helper error.  I think there was a fix for this in the arrow module here https://github.com/arrow-py/arrow/releases/tag/1.1.1

Problem is, @Angelinas, only the GitHub addon author or successor is allowed to submit addon updates to the Kodi repo per Kodi addon rules. I could very well open a PR, but it won't get accepted from me as I can't do much about the code either, if asked (I don't know the code). Please do push the addons you've so wonderfully ported to Matrix v19 and maintained to the Kodi repo to make them available for more users!

Hi,

this solved the "Skin Helper Service" error" for me, thanks for that!

But I still receive a "Skin Widget" error (Kodi 19.1, Amber 3.4.26) when I login on my second profile (first profile don't give me this error)

@mr.sarge1 

I believe you are with your mistake in the wrong forum thread.
Angelinas looks after "script.skin.helper.widgets" and not "service.skin.widgets".
