RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - wyrm - 2016-09-05 Ok, looks like the new update is up on the main repo already (although I still have not received official notification of this), so announcing AppTV 1.4.5. The last few updates from me have been following a Tick/Tock update schedule. This is a really big update, so think of it as a Super Tock update. Major Hi-lite's of this update include (in no particular order):
In addition to the above major changes there have been a number of minor changes as suggested by users over the last few months. Check and see if one of your pet peeves has been rectified. Now I'm taking a short break before starting work on the Krypton version of the skin, in all likelihood this is the last release of the skin for Jarvis. Have a play and report any bugs or feature requests here so that they can be added to the skin in time for the release of Kodi Krypton final.

Any way to disable the numbers on the home menu icons for movies and TV Shows though?SideStepSociety, Is there a setting to turn this off? No. Can you make it go away? Sure, watch All of you videos in your library. Failing that if you edit the "skin.apptv/720p/Includes_IconHome.xml" file, lines 290 and 298 and remove these lines that should do the trick. Right lines start with PHP Code: <property name="count">... Wyrm (AppTV) RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - wyrm - 2016-10-05 Ok guys, I have made a start on moving to Kyrpton. But before the main work on this happens I wanted to finish up the home menu customisation code that got cut short due to the dependencies problem with version 1.3.5. The way this code was originally done, selecting menu items seemed a bit hit or miss. I have how fixed this and am just finishing up some additional customisations for menu items. The biggest of these is to add the ability to assign a Kodi command to a custom menu item. For example it will now be possible to assign the Clean Library action to a home menu button. At this stage the list of actions includes update library, clean library and switch to fullscreen playing video and visualisations. Are there any other Kodi commands/actions that people feel should be allowed on the home menu screen?

From the root directory (which I see when I first open the file manager) you should see two entries. "Change Profile" and "Add Source". If you are in the root directory and don't see that, you will need to post a DEBUG log (see Support menu of skin for that). Just a friendly warning, if you are using any banned addons, please remove them as you will get zero support in these forums if you are using them. I and most other people here are not prepared to climb down that rabbit hole chasing phantom problems. Wyrm (AppTV) RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - loughrey101 - 2016-10-30 This would be perfect only, unlike most other Kodi skins, it doesn't put a watched tick mark after TV episodes you've watched within a series, leaving you guessing which episode you're on. I'd really love to see this added as I have to return to confluence in order to remember which episode i was last on which is a lot of hassle. I'd keep using this skin as the perfect skin for the Amazon Fire TV but the lack of a watched ticker is a deal breaker for me RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - wyrm - 2016-10-31 (2016-10-30, 22:58)loughrey101 Wrote: This would be perfect only, unlike most other Kodi skins, it doesn't put a watched tick mark after TV episodes you've watched within a series, leaving you guessing which episode you're on.

Following the Apple convention, full blue circle is unwatched, half circle is partially watched and no blue circle is watched. So in most views if there is NO blue circle displayed next to an item it means it has been watched. From memory the only view this does not apply to is the coverflow view and I will probably add this mark to at least the currently focused item for the Kyrpton release of the skin. Wyrm (AppTV) RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - m301 - 2016-11-01 Hi, I love your work and I am so looking forward to your AppTV release for Kodi Krypton!!! The update from Kodi Jarvis to Krypton Beta 5 brought some great new features and some missed back. The Youtube- and Amazon Prime-Addons are working again! Ok, with some help from here: http://www.kodinerds.net/index.php/Thread/51486-Kodi-17-Inputstream-AddOns-fuer-den-Kodi-17-VideoPlayer-aktuelle-Git-builds-Upda/ But I so miss using your skin and hope you release your update for Krypton soon. Is there already a release date? Otherwise I would have to downgrade to Jarvis. Please do not force me to! With deepest sympathy Seb RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - wyrm - 2016-11-02 (2016-11-01, 23:52)m301 Wrote: Hi,Seb, Short answer is "when it is done". I have just finished the work to the new and changed skin files, but there is still a lot of work required to bring some of the old files upto Kyrpton standard. I will probably upload the current changes to my Github in the next day or so, but it will most certainly have a few rought edges here and there. As to when it will be available in the main repo, probably around the time that Kodi goes into release candidate stage of release. Even at this late stage we are still seeing skin engine changes, so I see no point in releasing the skin now (even if it was finished). Added bonus for this release is a major rework of the custom home screen menu items. In addition to being able to assign Favourites to the custom items, now you will be able to assign playlists to the menu items. Also at this stage there are about ten system commands that can also be assigned to the menu items (this list may expand if I find anything else that seems reasonable to add). Sorry can't be any more precise than that, but we have to follow what is happening with Kodi and there is no set release date on that. Wyrm (AppTV) RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - m301 - 2016-11-02 Wyrm, thanks for your quick response. I see, it's done, when it is done. I wish you every success with your work! Seb RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - karlandtanya - 2016-11-10 Awesome and thanks for all your hard work! My wife loves AppTV, and I don't see upgrading kodi to 17 without it! (If mama ain't happy ain't nobody happy...) RE: Announcing new skin, AppTV (xTV-SAF reboot) - wyrm - 2016-11-11 A Krypton version of the skin is available thru my github (details on first page of this thread). All of the new and renamed skin files are available, but there is still a lot of work to do before I can release to the main repo. If anyone is feeling adventurous they can take it for a spin and report any problems back here. Suggest if you do take it for a spin that you checkout the home menu customisation menu as there are a couple of pleasant surprises there for you.

Where and what are you trying to display in coverflow view? What platform are you using? And did you install from main repo or from somewhere else? Wyrm (AppTV) |
