Love this skin! Thank you for continuing to develop it. 

I have 2 small issues I wonder if I can ask for some help with.

All my listings show the 4k.png graphic in the media flag bar along with the other correct information. So the 4k.png graphic is incorrectly displayed on hd and sd content. Is there a way I can fix that?

I used tinymm to make my local nfo files for when I import content into my library, the actors names are listed correctly in the wall view, however most of their png photos are empty/missing. Red Carpet is working but I am missing the headshot photos. I'm guessing this is user error, but is there a good way to re-scan those again without losing my library settings (I have a lot of collections and versions).
Also, is there a way to edit the Media Flag Bar?

The current skin version still uses an old trick to identify the movie codec. Some time ago you had to use the file name to help Kodi know about the new formats (like 4k). In your case, maybe you have in your video file name the characters '4k', I guess. Anyway, I have already changed that, and in the upcoming skin version the codec will be correctly identified without using that old trick. And no, sorry, you can't customize the media flag bar.

I don't know, I guess you should ask in the Tinymm thread. I use MediaElch and I get almost 100% of the actor's thumbs without having to do anything special. Anyway, if you don't like it, the upcoming skin version will have an option to show only the actor's names.
Great , thank you.
BTW, we love the Shelf in 3D view! I think I read that you prefer the modern look instead, but we still collect our physical media and feel this is a way to still appreciate our collection and quickly identify what format we have by the case. Thanks for keeping that available and up to date. Smile

One other question, I see some movies show up with the Dolby Atmos logo, and others are True 7.1. Is there a trick to getting the Atmos logo to be presented in the nfo? Maybe I need to switch to MediaElch?
Same question as above about the 3D flag too, please. It looks like my nfo has it, but I don't always see it in the group.

I like both, but only can use one at the same time, so I have to choose ;-)

Omega is still unable to identify Atmos tracks, so Aeon Tajo looks for the Atmos string in the codec information if provided in the nfo.file. MediaElch does identify correctly the Atmos tracks, I don't know about others media managers. Anyway I expect that the next Kodi version will identify Atmos tracks natively.

There's no 3D flag in Aeon Tajo. Only if you choose to display cases (like in Shelf view), you'll see that 3d movies will feature a different case color.
I wonder if its because I have 3D and/or ATMOS in my filename that the flag is showing sometimes? Odd it's not all the time if that is the case.
