RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - Cody - 2015-07-27

hi braz,

I've a hard time when there is no text!! lol! Managed to find out what the version is : Version 13.2 (git-20140817-0f3db05) Gotham??


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - braz - 2015-07-27

Yeah, no idea what happens when installing in Gotham as that version is not supported. Your userdata folder is likely hidden, see here for how to unhide.

If you want to try Mimic I recommend installing Kodi 15 and then installing Mimic from the official repo.


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - Cody - 2015-07-27

Great!! Braz, I've found it!! thanks!! so i go ahead and delete it? Smile)


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - braz - 2015-07-27

If you delete it you will lose all of your settings. If you want to keep them, you can try opening the file and removing all of the lines that have "mimic" in them. Then restart xbmc and it should revert to confluence.


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - Cody - 2015-07-27

Great! Thanks Braz!! you're a life-saver!!! Smile))

In above picture you see in the red box some info like title, genre, Full-HD, sound and video codec.
In which xml file can I find this info. I would like to try to add the time duration of the movie.

Thanks.

oke, thanks.


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - maxdido - 2015-07-28

I managed to get the time and rating next to the title.

But when no movie is selected I want the time to be invisible, same as the rating.
I need some help with this.

PHP Code:

RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - braz - 2015-07-28

Take a look at the visibility conditions used for the other flags, you'll need to use the same for duration.


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - maxdido - 2015-07-28

I added "<visible>!IsEmpty(DurationVar)</visible>" to the group. Then it disappears but when I select a movie it is still gone. So this is not the way to do it. You have another tip for me.

PHP Code:
                    <!-- DOWNmovie duration [TIME IN MINUTES] -->
                    <
control type="group">
                        <
width>160</width>
                        <
visible>![Container.Content(tvshows) + Skin.HasSetting(Disable.NextAired)]</visible>
                        <
visible>!IsEmpty(DurationVar)</visible>
                        <
control type="label">
                            <
left>0</left>
                            <
top>10</top>
                            <
width>140</width>
                            <
height>60</height>
                            <
align>center</align>
                            <
label>[B]$VAR[DurationVar][/B]</label>

control>

RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - braz - 2015-07-28

If nothing else works try...

<visible>!StringCompare(ListItem.Label,..)</visible>


RE: Mimic 1.x for Helix - maxdido - 2015-07-28

I got it.

PHP Code:
<visible>!IsEmpty(ListItem.Duration)</visible

Play some music, backspace so you are in fullscreen mode, then press "m" to bring up the menu. One of the buttons on the left turns on the visualization, another one lets you choose the preset.
