Has this been pushed to the main Skin addon? I have not tested the scenarios on the main installation as yet.

Another thing that is messing with my OCD a bit is the "actor" images in the Video Info dialog. The smaller images/panel as you scroll down the info page looks great but upon selecting/highlighting an actor the poster on the left switches to a huge image of the actor. This brings up two issues in my mind:

1. This is a video info screen so the info displayed should mostly pertain to the video itself. We already see the actor image (smaller image on the right side in cast section). Blowing up the image to replace the movie/tv poster doesn't add value in my opinion.

2. Some of the actor images are low res. They look fine in the cast section where the images are smaller but look horrible when scaled up to replace the poster on the left side. Also some actors don't have images - in that case a black image is displayed in cast panel which looks fine but on the left there's a huge area covered in black.

Keeping movie/tv poster in place would help fix these issues. I would love to hear from you if you feel I am missing some thing here. I briefly tried looking around in the DialogVideoInfo.xml to try and fix this and create the pull request but didn't get much far. Couldn't find the logic that swaps the movie/tv poster with actor image on the left.. could you point me in the right direction?

Thanks for the great support and quick turn around as always!

1) It is like that for two reason.
  • I want to make sure the user knows what item they are focused on. I don't want to have to add a focused border texture and the label changing colors might not be enough.
  • Also I like showing the bigger image there for actors and all the other panels that might be available Wink

2) I will change the current behavior and not show the default fallback (black) image when there isn't one available. You'll be able to test it when I push it to GitHub sometime today.

As for pointing the way you can check in Variables.xml or follow the commit changes when I push them to GitHub Smile 
The point about highlighting the focused item makes sense and I totally agree with you about not adding a border or solely relying on the changing label colors.

However, there might be another way of doing this - show a slightly zoomed/larger picture on the focused item along with change in label font color/weight. Something similar to what happens with Showcase view or Logo view - focused items are slightly larger. Not sure how complicated the change would be to implement though.

Just updated via the Kodi Repo and V7.0.5 reset all my menus and backgrounds to default....was that supposed to happen?

No. Well that sucks. I’m about to get a shitstorm of complaints now...

I was experiencing issues when testing other skins so added a do not share menu tag in the overrides.xml file.

I didn’t think that would reset the menu but I guess it did.

Can you try removing the
<doNotShareMenu /> line from overrides.xml with Kodi off and see if your menu comes back?

i confirm that if you delete <doNotShareMenu /> line from overrides.xml it works fine !

Just to be clear here.
You're menu reset to defaults and removing that line restored your menu as it was before the reset?

I tested this myself and it seems to revert the menu back so I'm gonna try to update it quickly before too many people have it installed.

It's already over 10,000 downloads so I should do it ASAP...

correct !


RE: Aeon Nox: SiLVO - Kev1900 - 2019-09-04

How do I get to overrides.xml ?
I do my own builds and now everything is gone.


RE: Aeon Nox: SiLVO - brumbie - 2019-09-04

Wow, that scared me, years and years of perfecting ..lol..(had a back up but about 2 months old).. I'll wait for the update....thanks mike.


RE: Aeon Nox: SiLVO - brumbie - 2019-09-04

Make sure you unhide "hidden files" in Windows Explorer
then go to:
C:\Users\"YOUR NAME"\AppData\Roaming\Kodi

Do a folder search for: overrides.xml

then open with something like Notepad ++ and do a search for: <doNotShareMenu />
I think its the 3rd line anyway.

When my build updated to 7.0.4 some of my customisations changed, unfortunately I wasn't 100% sure, so I turned off auto updating so that I could check before and after update.

With my poor memory my customisations that reverted to default when 7.0.4 was installed were, playing music in full screen reverted to no, video OSD returned to bottom, highlighted item color reverted to default, artist fanart via OSD reverted to off

I am only posting this in case it's relevant to any changes you made.

I will wait for 7.0.6 before I update

Hope you can do it quick, or I'll be getting messages/calls from my family :-)

Thanks for all your excellent work.


RE: Aeon Nox: SiLVO - apguy - 2019-09-04

It’s not so easy to change the overrides file in the Android TV app.

Will there be a new update to the skin at restores the settings ? Or is that not possible

Thanks for all the great work

Pretty sure it is.


I guess I'll just submit what I got to Kodi repo now cause nobody seems to want to test so I guess all the ol' regular users have to be unwitting "beta" testers.

I just checked the newly updated 7.0.5 and 7.9.2 it's still the same...no episode name in PVR recordings..thanks

edit: sorry my fault...was using slim list setting in recordings....in list it shows perfectly

No I didn't change anything that would revert any skin settings.

I already asked for an update but I have to wait for Kodi skin reviewer. Will open a new issue in case my message did not go through though.

Yes there will be update that restores menu. Just don't do anything like delete the skin shortcuts addon_data folder.

I should have added it to SlimList too so will be in next update.
