@eskay993

Try to change the busy dialog group visibility to "<visible>Player.Caching</visible>" in DialogSeekBar.xml.

Translate this 4 with your XML and then you also have this feature.
I do not know whether it is really but it works

It's taken me the best part of the day but I've managed to add the Fire TV's style of searching.

RE: fTV - fach1708 - 2016-01-02

Has the new search function been merged because when I click on search I see the same search as before


RE: fTV - Hitcher - 2016-01-02

You need to enable it in the skin settings and make sure you're using English ABC keyboard layout otherwise it wont work.


RE: fTV - fach1708 - 2016-01-02

Cheers mate


RE: fTV - fach1708 - 2016-01-02

Sorry to be a pest but when I press a search letter eg. A, a different letter altogether comes up...

Hitcher,

I know you are doing a lot of work on the FTV skin now and likely have other features prioritized ahead of this... but it would be great if you would consider adding a square view for TV shows and seasons (similar to the wide view option). Right now, the main TV widget can show square poster art but not the widgets within the TV widget group. And not the TV season art screen or the TV show information view, which defaults to poster art regardless.

Thanks


RE: fTV - badboy123 - 2016-01-02

For ver 2.3.8, every time a video is paused the 'spinner' keeps loading.

After changing line 747 of VideoFullScreen.xml

from:
<visible>Player.Paused + !Player.Caching</visible>

to:
<visible>Player.Paused + Player.Caching</visible>

seems to have fixed this but I'm not sure if that has broken something else. Huh


RE: fTV - angeld - 2016-01-02

Hello have to firstly say love the skin. I have 2 firetv 1st gen and it works awesome but I recently got a shield tv and it runs great but when I first start it up I get grey shadows around everything.
Image Image Image
If I go in to anything with background artwork it seems to go away until I back out of that artwork. Also if I go to any of the sub menus in settings its goes away till I back out. Example Settings > Appearance > Skin. If I play a video it goes away until Kodi is restarted. Any help on fixing this permanently?

I see this problem too. But only on my 1080P TVs. On my 4K TVs and my Mac, the shadows look correct.

The shadows (or dark squares in this case) are only behind the text and jacket art widgets on the home menu. But after the fan art (wallpaper) draws on a particular screen, then the shadows look correct.

So from my testing, the problem is only with this skin, in those locations, on 1080P TVs. I am running v2.1 of nVidia Shield software.


This is still an issue in the latest FTV skin github build (2.2.10) and the latest Jarvis Android ARM nightly (20151025-3e083db).

One additional thing I see, however, is that the problems with the blocky shadow rendering behind the menu items/jacket art goes away after you play a video.

Is this something related to an initial colorspace setting at a particular refresh rate/resolution?

This is all I could find in the post about the issue and if Hitchers post refers to the above problem. I cant find any dither options in shield tv or kodi. Also I am running the latest shield tv firmware, Kodi 16.0 beta 4 and the latest firetv skin from github. I also had this problem on Kodi 15.2. Have tried it on 2 different tvs and several different video settings in both kodi and shield tv.

RE: fTV - sualfred - 2016-01-03

Mate, found another minor glitch issue yesterday:

"IntegerGreaterThan(Container(xxx).NumItems,x)" won't work for visible and animations tags, when dialogs like the virtual keyboard is active.
This Kodi bug cause an invisible widget button of the focused row, if they have 1< items and the search dialog will be opened for example.

Was able to fix it by splitting the focusedlayout into two conditional ones.
Just for your notice.
