I really need the Time remaining on the Pause OSD back please pretty please

Hi, is it posible to add some sort of option in favorits on main menu screen that you can make customize favorite grupe for all the same stuff to go in and then you can have another grupe for different stuff all with some sort of separation

I LOVE that the Pause OSD now disappears after a few seconds.

But why was the Time remaining and also name of video playing removed?

PLEASE can you add back both "Time remaining" and "video name" soon?

Thanks

Video name is still there in the Info osd. As for time remaining I believe it was felt there was too many time labels, so decision was to drop time remaining label, as it's just another way of representing the same info as the ends at label displays.

That's a real bummer as I really like he Time Remaining display

There seems to be plentily of room for it somewhere in the UI.

Anyway thanks for the info

I can provide guidance on how to mod the skin if you wanted to go that route.

Sure hopefully it's not to hard to so

Can this mod be done on both Windows and Android too?

Please add a feature to be able to add add-on shortcuts to the main menu (side panel). No need to go to Videos->Video Addons->[Addon Name] or Music->Music Addons->[Addon Name] to go to a certain music or video addon. This way you can add add-on shortcuts to the main menu like Netflix or YouTube and be able to boot up Kodi and simply go to Netflix/YouTube and from there choose a video.

You need to use a skin that allows Custom Home Items

I know other skins do this but I like the default Estuary skin and all it needs in my opinion is the ability to add items to the main menu. If other skins can do this why can't this feature be added to Estuary?

Because they mostly rely on a helper script what while acceptable for 3rd party skins is deemed too resource heavy and of not the necessary code quality for inclusion in the default skin.

Please add "Recently added TV Shows." to the home screen.

Is it possible to have the video/audio format identifiers as logos like in TV channels? I mean the official logos for 4K UHD, DTS, Dolby Digital, 1080p, HDR10, and so on.

You can add a keyboard shortcut to your keyboard.xml file. Use the following

xml:
<v mod="ctrl,shift">ActivateWindow(Settings)</v>

then you press ctrl-shift-v on your keyboard and it will open the Settings main page.
