This should be the normal behaviour. You can play around with the settings shown below.

thank you, that is not going to achieve what im going for, in the photo below circled in red when the player controls are not visable like in the photo i would like the entire circled layout incluting the background to slide down to fill the space where the controls would appear, then when to controls are called the entire section slides up to reveal the player controls

What you've shown above is the (extended) seek bar. This is different to the OSD navigation control which will shown on <enter> and fade out automatically together with the seek bar. If you want to change this behaviour you'll have to modify a big bunch of code in Includes.xml (include name "OSDWithInfo", "OSDWithoutInfo"). Good luck!

Hey, everyone. Hoping someone could help me with a problem I have when trying to set up a custom widget.
 These are the steps: Select widget 1 - Video Library - Sources - [source name] - Use as widget; Widget appearance 1 - Posters.
 The problem: no posters are displayed inside the widget. Instead, only a generic one is visible.
 My goal: I want to create a widget that would display only dubbed anime. If anyone knows of some other method to accomplishing this, I would gladly listen.

### 21.2.1+omega ###

• Videoversion/-selection, DialogSelect fixed
  

This is a bigger change than usual, so minor version number wents up. This only applies to the Omega tree.

Don't use sources, they won't work as there is no poster for sources. Use smart playlists instead. I would suggest to tag your dubbed animes with "dubbed" (use Metadata Editor addon) and create a smart playlist with your target content (movies?) and a rule with "Tags contains dubbed". If this playlist is showing the correct content you can use this as: Select widget 1 - Video Library - Playlist - [playlist name], Widget appearance 1 - Posters.

Thank you very much, you made my viewing experience a lot better.

Volume problems

Hardware:
TV - LG G3 55 Inch
Receiver - Denon S660-H (connected to TV with HDMI-eARC)
MediaPlayer: Nokia 8010
Kodi: v21
Skin - Estuary MOD V2 Omega
(All up-to-date, latest updates)

Problem: Volume for the Kodi is too low.
When I use the Media Player the music goes to a maximum of "83" while standard TV goes to "100" No way I can get it higher on Kodi/MediaPlayer
When I have the volume for Kodi Music on max (=83), and switch the HDMI back to cable TV, (still at 83) the sound is that loud that even the neighbours 2 doors besides us can hear it, imagine how it will be at Volume 100 (which can be done when receiver put on Cable TV).
But with Kodi/Mediaplayer on Max (83) the audio is just good enough to listen to it loud "enough". But sometimes I want a song realllllyyyy loud, at least as loud as the TV signal when set to 100

To my knowledge I have tried the settings of TV, Receiver, Speakerset, Kodi, MediaPlayer.... But none of them can bring the audio for Kodi to 100. They all stop at "83", whatevert remote control I use!!!
So I still don't know what the reason is for this not going up to 100
For sure there is a solution, I had it working perfectly months ago until I reset everything for a reason.
But now..... No way I can get Max volume.

Anyone any idea?

I guess the same behaviour happend when switch back to Estuary?

I'll try....

Yep, same effect. Max 83. And swithing back to TV (still 83) it's extremely loud, so knowing that this can go to 100 BOOOOMMMM....

Do you control the volume via TV remote (eARC)? Move up the Volume of the Nokia box with the Nokia remote ore use the kodi remote app.

You can increase the volume from the sound amplifier in Kodi sound settings.
