RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - VoodooLeague - 2019-05-01

Hello, i've been modding one of your textures to fit my build, calling it Carbon White Black Glass.
Here are some pics and last remaining issue i got...

Image

Image

Image
Can somone point me in the right location, i need to reposition the above listing and probably resize it or remove 1 item from it ex: track 1 to 5.

Image
Same issue as the prior image, reposition and resize above item.

Image
And finally locate and relocate this 9002 panel to the right a bit. Note that it only appears on this location on fullscreen mode, music or video, on all remaining windows it's positioned as in image 3.

RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - Matrata - 2019-05-02

Hello, I have installed Kodi v18 on Raspberry Pi (raspbian stretch) with CarPC-Carbon skin, so the idea is to use it in the car.
My question is how do I run an external program, like creating my custom button VLC and pushing to launch VLC?

I tried this in the following way
I created a vlc.py file in /home/pi.kodi/addons/skin.CarPc-Carbon/scripts/vlc.py
I put this code in the file
 
Code:
import os
import xbmc

os.system ("sudo /usr/bin/vlc");


In the code I call it with the command
Code:
RunScript ("special://home/pi/.kodi/addons/skin.CarPc-Carbon/scripts/vlc.py")

But when I try to get started I get a mistake and nothing happens.

The error that comes out is:
Code:
2019-05-02 00: 29: 00.739 T: 1899867408 ERROR: ExecuteAsync - Not executing non-existing script special: //home/pi.kodi/addons/skin.CarPc-Carbon/scripts/vlc.py



I test and without special:/ and reply from log is:
Code:
2019-05-02 18:58:48.042 T:1774600928 WARNING: CPythonInvoker(39): Script invoked without an addon. Adding all addon modules installed to python path as fallback. This behaviour will be removed in future version.
Where am I wrong?

Maybe Google Chrome just VLC gave as an example

Hi , very nice job. Smile . I like the home , nice contrast.
For the list view in music library , you can fix by edit ViewsList.xml and second ViewsThumbnail.xml .
Even i edited many times this files i can't remember all locations Big Grin .
 For the last try to search in  includes.xml also..

Hi,
first of all try to run your script in your terminal.
If working go to the next step.


Try for button command :
Code:
RunScript("special://skin/scripts/your_file_name.py")



RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - Matrata - 2019-05-03

Hi,

I test from terminal and VLC is run code on python script is:
Code:
import os


os.system("/usr/bin/vlc");

And edit Action Button from skin with command: 
Code:
RunScript("special://home/pi/scripts/vlc.py")

and don't work Sad


RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - Matrata - 2019-05-03

test with command from terminal
Code:
python /home/pi/scripts/vlc.py

Hello,

I am trying to implement this solution, but I have a question.  Once I have created the script, how do I get it onto my installation of Kodi? I can't find any kind of file system where I can manually add the script file.

ssh ? 
My RPi setup is a dual boot Raspbian/LibreElec.  Do you mean that I need to load up Kodi, and then SSH into that?  Previously, I have been going in to Raspbian assuming that was the main OS, and would give me access to all files (including Kodi).

Run LibreElec. Enable ssh server. Log into kodi via ssh and run that script using command line

Thanks for the assist that helped a lot... all visual issues solved.

I have  a doubt about about the 9002 panel on image 2, i wanted to apply the rim effect to it as in image 1 center menu, instead of the blue colordiffuse.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        <focusedlayout height="180" width="180">
                <control type="image">
                <posx>-5</posx>
                <posy>-20</posy>
                <width>180</width>
                <height>180</height>
                <bordersize>20</bordersize>
                <texture colordiffuse="blue">$INFO[ListItem.Icon]</texture>
                <aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>
            </control>

​​​​​​​---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I´ve tried nonsense stuff like:

-                <texture="icons_p">$INFO[ListItem.Icon_p]</texture>

-                <texture="icons">$INFO[ListItem_p.Icon]</texture>

-                <texture="icons">$INFO_p[ListItem.Icon]</texture>

Any ideas on how to go about doing it, all icon names for this buttons have the same name, with extra p, ex: icon_name _p.png

​​​​​​​Thnak you.


RE: [MOD] CarPC-Carbon - idorel77 - 2019-05-07

Hi ,
i don't know how to start . ..
There you have a image, icon is image too, small png...
colordiffuse=blue is an effect over texture (icon in this case), you can't add icons effect.
You can't modify $INFO[ListItem.Icon] - you just can to replace.

You can read here more about texture.
