Just looking closely at your notification settings and ratings, against mine your notification in the pic is different to mine where do you switch on that style of note. Also you rating on the right bottom left. After updating mine have not been seen bottom right but on the top row still. What have you switched on or off to get these where they are in you pic as outlined?
That's the UK age rating logo and is actually a details row setting called Enable UK Icons on Details Row (although it also puts the logo on the spotlight too as you have noticed). You need either UK or US scraped MPAA certification for the logo to show. Primarily this is a UK option but I made it available to people with US MPAA certification too by doing an equiveillance (eg. if user had US:R rating, show UK15 logo). To use the logos accurately, it's best to scrape UK MPAA with your scraper.
If you don't know what the details row is, it is located directly under the clearlogo (see the UK18 logo present here):
And the details row setting can be found here:
Regarding the second image you circled, this is a poster tag but not related to the skin unfortunately. It's a feature of the Netflix addon

Thanks man, I've implemented those changes. Man oh man my tv screen looks full and bright..
The only thing I've now noticed is spotlight plays back very choppy and I can't figure why. Im not sure what payer plays back the hubs and spotlight as yet so I'm checking around atm but the update is King man. Nice.

Can you please tell me more specifically what this does now? Or what issue it made before that is fixed with this update?
Hello, first of all; great skin thank you and everyone involved in this and the previous iterations of this skin for working on this and making this beautiful skin. With that out of the way i am about to bombard you with some questions sorry, I really hope you or someone can help answer most of them. Again, thank you for this great skin, I just switched over from Auramod to just play around and test but I still need to figure out the nooks and crannies of this skin.
Anyways here is an imgur link for reference for my questions
https://imgur.com/a/tynG1dT
Image 1: The White box around the poster is not placed correctly not sure why this happened it came when i set up the skin from the beginning and I have not been able to fix it since.
Images 2 and 3: I am trying to get the Season and Episode view to show up as the one in "The Flash" from your example in the pinned post where on the left it shows seasons one through 6, and on the right it is the bingie episode view. I achieved this in Auramod, however here I cannot; enabling the bingie episode view on season level leads to Image 2 where it shows the Seasons as episodes, and Image 3 enabling it in Episode list is how it
should look, except it is only for that specific season, I would like to make it show the other seasons below and above the season im in on the left.
Image 4: When I go into one of my video sources, it feels like the skin does not use all the space available like there is a black indent at the bottom and at the top, is this how it is by design? If so then alright.
Last Question: when i watched this video the resolution and posters look bigger im not sure if this is just me being dumb or not, but i feel the resolution in my build doesnt look as clean and is not as big as i want it to, again not sure if this is by design, or im just incorrect and they are the same, or there are settings to change poster/landscape picture sizes.

Sorry for the long post, once again thank you very much for the work you put into this.

It was mainly under-the-hood changes to be able to make small adjustments to episode number & title and progress bar without them affecting each other (remember the disappearing progress bar?).
Then I was able to make small cosmetic changes so things are less cramped.
Before vs After
Previously, the episode title was actually slightly overlapping the progress bar.
After cleaning up the code a bit I also made a comment in the xml should you wish to remove the episode title completely to only display the episode number to gives it a cleaner appearance (which is how is mine is set up).
You can find the comment in includeshomebingie.xml here:
xml:
<!--episode title/episode no. -->
<control type="textbox">
<top>-10</top>
<height min="0" max="70">40</height> <!--set to auto for episode title, set to 40 for just episode.-->
<width>650</width>
<align>left</align>
<aligny>center</aligny>
<font>Reg26</font>
<textcolor>darkgray</textcolor>
<label>$VAR[BingieEpisodeInfoSubLabel]</label>
</control>

HugoL In Bingie episode view , it took long time to reflect all seasons on left side of the screen , some time it doesn't show remaining seasons , then all I do , scroll all episode down to reach desire season. Kindly help it out why it appears late some time 25 second .

I'm really liking what you did to the font. Is this just a text shadow or did you alter the font in any other way because it looks a lot lighter (less bold) than standard.
Also, it would good to align the details and plot height so they start at the same height:
And then have everything including the footers fit neatly in this area

Great! Indeed, this is even more neat than what I have thought. Will definitely change my settings into this! Thanks.
Btw, can you take a screenshot of the new look of the latest infopanel diffuse? I'd like to see the difference.

Probably a performance issue.

In particular-
1. keep your View Types to a bare minimum. I've disabled all of mine apart from the following:
2. Delete Your thumbnails cache and let Kodi rebuild it (takes a while!)
3. Make sure you're not somehow pulling high res episode thumbs.

I never use it but since Achilles was doing some work on it, I thought I'd make the text clearer.
Previous vs New

Nice! This is the diffuse for infopanel that I wanted, the plot is much more readable. Can you point me which xml is this?

I don't understand why you need it. It's already there, in 1.08.

Yes I had to edit xml for the back panel. I can fix details, plot height this Wednesday.
That's a good idea with the footer. I'll take care of that as well.
I had to add the code for fanart in the background because it was just a black screen
