The entire skin uses the same background image and I am looking for some help pointing me in the right direction with this. Any help would be much appreciated.
StartUp.xml
Code:<onload>SetProperty(SEVEN_daemon_set,True,home)</onload>
<onload condition="System.HasAddon(script.colorbox)">RunScript(script.colorbox,daemon=True)</onload>
MyVideoNav.xml (or AddonBrowser.xml, MyMusicNav.xml, Home.xml etc)
Code:<control type="multiimage" id="7977">
<left>-2160</left>
<imagepath background="true">$VAR[MyPosterImage]</imagepath>
</control>
Then you will have these propertys filled
PHP Code:Window(home).Property(ImageColorSEVEN)
Window(home).Property(ImageCColorSEVEN)
Thanks for the insight! So what do I put in my image control for my background? I assume a colordiffuse, but not sure how to handle it correctly.
Put the image in the multiimage (I think this is what you are asking?).
OR
SEVEN doesn't make an image it just gives you the colour, so set it to anything for it to scan 7977, here is use 'True'.
For an image you'd have to use one of the other IDs.

badaas,
I am using: RunScript(script.colorbox,info=blur,id=PICTURE_NAME,prefix=mypic1,blursize=1,quality=8)
and it work 99% of the time with posters, do you have an idea on why it doesn't work with all of them?
thanks

If it is working, then I'm guessing those images are cache'd kodi images and not available as no physical image exists in file system.
It works properly via the said daemons (as they make a physical copy before running ops), if you can try that way?
Also any errors should be in kodi.log

RE: script.colorbox - JanKeesdeHaan - 2018-01-23
I can't figure out how this script works.
I want to have a blurred posterart as background for the homescreen and the DialogVideoInfo screen on the estuary skin.
Lines for the background on the home screen:
Code:
<control type="multiimage">
<depth>DepthBackground</depth>
<include>FullScreenDimensions</include>
<aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
<fadetime>600</fadetime>
<animation effect="zoom" center="auto" end="102,102" time="0" condition="Integer.IsGreater(System.StereoscopicMode,0)">conditional</animation>
<animation effect="fade" start="0" end="100" time="400">WindowOpen</animation>
<animation effect="fade" start="100" end="0" time="300">WindowClose</animation>
<animation effect="fade" time="400">VisibleChange</animation>
<imagepath background="true" colordiffuse="bg_overlay">$VAR[HomeFanartVar]</imagepath>
<visible>!Player.HasMedia</visible>
</control>Background line for the DialogVideoInfo:
Code:
<onload>SetProperty(infobackground,$ESCINFO[ListItem.Art(poster)],home)</onload>Could you please help me?

I have about 100 movies in that drive, all recognized by kodi. For some reason, colorbox doesnt blur 3 movies; works fine for all the other movies.

Then try again to run script.

I went ahead and deleted all the images, selected the movie in Kodi, and check back to see if the image was created and saved. For some reason, the image is not saved in the colorbox cache folder.
I hope this helps identifying the issue...

I think I found the problem!
Somehow I believe the script doesn't like ' : , and that is why it doesn't see the poster, it can't access the folder. In the above example, my folder reads \A Bug's Life, not as shown above.
I also tested Crouching Tiger, Hidden dragon. If I look at the log, it stops at Tiger does not show the complete folder name.
Hope this helps

Some symbols aren't allowed on windows system, like ':' for eg.
Thanks for infos
Update:
Looking quickly, all ' are removed, so you could change in default.py:
Code:
arg = arg.replace("'", "").replace('"', "")Code:
arg = arg.replace('"', "")and then , is a delimiter, which is probably borking the list in py. I would need to strip them down the line..
Meh, always something
Actually, this:
Code:
arg = arg.replace("'", "").replace('"', "")is in the wrong place, I need to strip each arg.. or does py do it auto.. Will get back to you, but you could just remove that line completely and delete cache and retry.

Is the fanart.jpg in your movie folder, or is it cached by Kodi db?

Badaas,
I have horizon installed and it blurs every poster regardless of , or ' (installed colorbox repo) including planes, trains and automobiles.
Could it be possible that your "daemon" version of the script treats , ' correctly and the runscript version (RunScript(script.colorbox,info=blur,id=PICTURE_NAME,prefix=mypic1,blursize=1,quality=8)) doesn't?
