Hi,
for day/night switch you can edit home.xml from your skin folder and comment or delete the 246 line: <include>DayNight</include>

For youtube addon: RunAddon(plugin.video.youtube)

Thanks!

had some time today so I upgraded to RPI4B, and now Im totally unable to install CarPC skin.

and this is what confuses me:

- yesterday I had my RPI4B on my desk connected to 1080p TV via HDMI and I simply installed this skin "CarPc-Carbon-K18-master.zip" and it installed and was working (no touch so I had to use mouse)
- today I disconnected HDMI TV and connected official 7" touchscreen, and when I powered RPI4B everything works just fine, but "CarPc-Carbon-K18-master" skin dissapered (just like it was never installed) and installing it agait it gives me "Failed to install add-on from zip file"


any suggestions?

Kodi 18.2 Git:20190712-nogitfound
Screen resolution: [email protected] - Full screen
Operating system: Raspbian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) (kernel: Linux 4.19.57.v71+)

Make shore you still have the same kodi versions... 
Try to change the resolution...

Kodi is the same as i only changed screen from hdmi to dsi official touchscreen and no software changes.

I also changed the resolution in addon.xml but no luck.

I will do complete reflash from start with touchscreen connected and not with hdmi.

Reflashed os with dsi touchscreen connected and it's working fine.

Hi, its me again
I have a problem with this skin regarding playlists - 
I cannot find the save playlist option -
On the regular skin there is an options tab on the side but I cant reach it,
I wish to save my current playlist, is this possible?
Is it possible to do it in a pyton script? (I created the playlist using python, but while there are options like playlist.clear or playlist.shuffle there is no playlist.save)

In new playlist you have settings icon and there is save playlist also.

Thanks for the quick reply!
I was unaware of that...
Is there still a way to invoke this menu with a python script?
Thanks again!

I dug a little deeper, and thought mabe this might help me - or at least get me closer to the playlist save window.
I added in my python script:

xbmc.executebuiltin("ActivateWindow(Music,special://musicplaylists/)")

I also tried:

xbmc.executebuiltin("ActivateWindow(Music,Playlists)")

But for some reason it does not work - do you have any idea what am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

I don`t know how to edit my message, I got it to work:

import xbmcgui
dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()
i = dialog.yesno("Playlist updated", "Would you like to view the new Playlist?")

if i == 1:
   xbmc.executebuiltin( "XBMC.ActivateWindow(10500)" )

Is it possible to invoke the save playlist command with the ActivateWindow? what is its id number?
Is it also possible to automatically fill in the save file name?

Thanks!

Hi guys, how can I use keyboard to navigate the main menu?  Im using this with libreelec and a pibus board so need to be able to use arrows and enter.

Anyway I can simulate the touch screen imuts with a keyboard?  Really want to use this skin. Hard to believe it does not support keyboard commands for navigation as a default 

Great Work with this Skin. The only problem I have is, that in the top right corner the weather data doestn show an icon for the current condition. Is there any reason for this or does somebody has any solutions?

In the Includes.xml it states under the weather include: 

Where is the path on raspberry, where this icons should be saved?

Thanks in advance for any ideas!
