Can someone change the color of the covers? When I try it I get Error Skin Helper Service ColorPicker.
I have it installed but it still won't let me.
Thx.

Is it possible to change the color of the covers as well? I don't see the option and in previous versions it was possible.
Thank you.

@Anjuas
You can change the color of the case if you have the Colorpicker add-on installed. What version of the Colorpicker are you running?

Ver: 2.0.3

I don't see the option to change the color of the casing. I was using an old version of KODI with old Aeon MQ8 too. When updating both things, it doesn't let me change the color of the case logos and the option to change the case color is no longer where it should be and I also don't see where that option can be now. Thanks and regards.

@Anjuas

Go to skin settings enter in Media Cases for Video, and press enter above the case will open a color window to choose another color. It´s possible to change in the same place one type of video for another.

Hi!.
Thx, works perfecly. And i can change the color of logo too.

I installed Color Picker from the skin's own addons and that's why it didn't work. Download this and now if it works. Color Picker.

Thx all. Love this Aeon MQ 8. To me is the best.

Hello, I'm trying to use Aeon MQ 8 for Matrix Mod. I have a Raspberry Pi 4 that I have installed RaspianOS Bullseye on. I use the main default repository to install Kodi, which is 19.4. I then download Aeon MQ8 for Matrix Mod, v1.0.4.1.zip and install it. All is fine until I come to play a video file, at which point I'm prompted to install the "required Add-on" Embuary Helper. After doing this, Kodi crashes, and will crash every time it is launched. It seems Embuary Helper isn't compatible with Aeon MQ8 for Matrix. Is there a fix for this please, or some way to disable the notification to install Embuary Helper? Thank you!

@umbongo
Howdy...are you using Embuary Helper v2.0.8? If not, you can download that version here.

UPDATE #42 - This will update the skin to v1.0.4.2

Additions

I added a WEBDL icon to the mediatype flag. To display the flag, you can add ".webdl" or ".web-dl" to your filename. Thanks to GrimGriefer for the request!

Bug fixes

If you were missing discart for an album, and you had "LOGO IN CD" enabled for layout 4 or 6 in music viz, the clearlogo and artist name were both being displayed on the blank CD. The clearlogo was also not positioned correctly. Thanks to Chalklands for reporting the bug!

There is also an update to the Colored Videocodec add-on available in my repo.

You should update "script.module.metadatautils" to version 1.0.50 .

Hi!
Could we have an additional option in Change pause screen to hide the graphical title as well?

@vdb86
I'll take a look at your request when I can...I'm away from my mod PC for a bit.

UPDATE #43 - This will update the skin to v1.0.4.3

Bug fixes

The webdl icon was not displaying due to a similar naming convention to the webtv icon. Please use the extensions ".web." (with a leading AND trailing period), ".webrip" or ".web-rip" to display the webtv icon. Thanks to Juan Mortyme for reporting the bug and providing the fix!

There is also an update to the Colored Videocodec add-on available in my repo.
