RE: skin helper service - Angelinas - 2016-03-10 @Marcel are this typo error in Animated poster... extendedinfocache....... nevermind ,animated poster working with 1.60..... RE: skin helper service - Mike_Doc - 2016-03-10 @Angelinas, do you use pathsubstition for thumbnails? I am and I can't get animated posters to work? Seems to be fetching them to the animatedgifs folder but not displaying them? RE: skin helper service - pavlov70 - 2016-03-11 Hi, I love this plugin, especially since I discovered the PVR widgets. I do, however, have a intermittent problem with the "PVR recent recordings" view.in 1.0.60. When I attempt to play a recording from the widget, it more often than not fails to play. It's usually fine initially, but starts having issues after I have been navigating around Kodi for a while. The other PVR widgets don't appear to have this same problem. I reverted back to 1.0.54 and have been unable to re-create the problem. I'm not sure if this is a known issue or specific to me. I'll be happy to upload any logs if you'd like. thanks rob RE: skin helper service - _Andy_ - 2016-03-11 Hello I have downloaded the latest git and i have two errors. Code: 02:52:12 T:2444 ERROR: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<-- Any help i could do? RE: skin helper service - BobCratchett - 2016-03-11 I appreciate this might not be the best thread to request this, but I can't find any better active thread. Whilst there are workarounds to display the various artwork that this script makes available for the currently selected item - AnimatedPoster, ListItemStudio and Music.Discart to name but three - for items that are not currently focused I have to ask if there is any thought given to making these items available to non-focused items - with preference for this script acting similarly to the artwork downloader script, and adding these so they are available via $INFO[ListItem.Art([artwork type])]. Whilst I greatly appreciate being able to access such images without any workaround for the selected item, as I'm not working on any 'currently selected item info' view, if these aren't available for non-selected items, they're currently - unless I'm misunderstanding the current implementation, which is very possible - not of any use to me. I do understand that such improvements would probably require core changes, though, so am ready to accept a simple 'No' answer RE: skin helper service - Jayz2K - 2016-03-11 Hi Marcel, back on the constant stuffs After many attempts, there's 2 things I miss to complete the "user setup" experience. First one is there's no infolabels for constants (erm yeah, it's constants ...). So the idea is to be able to read the value now they can be set. An optional window prop writting using the same name and containing the value can do the trick IMO. Also, I would like to copy constants to constants in bulk mode. The idea is to build a constants model : Model.SizeX Model.SizeY Model.PosX Model.PosX And spread then at user request to the corresponding KODI section (ex for video section) : Code: RunScript(script.skin.helper.service,action=copyskinconstant,id=Model.SizeX,target=Video.SizeX) Same reverse (with window prop option) : Code: RunScript(script.skin.helper.service,action=copyskinconstant,id=Video.SizeX,target=Model.SizeX,setproperty=true) Or maybe something using a single runscript command with DialogBusy or Progress so ending can do the Reloadskin() at the end. Do you think you can do something for those ? Many thanks. RE: skin helper service - User 224999 - 2016-03-11 (2016-03-10, 21:11)Mike_Doc Wrote: do you use pathsubstition for thumbnails? I am and I can't get animated posters to work? Seems to be fetching them to the animatedgifs folder but not displaying them? Hmmm, path substitution... not sure if that is going to work. Do you have set the substitution to another local folder or UNC ? BTW: Why substitute the thumbnails folder, that kind of misses the point for the thumbnails cache ;-) RE: skin helper service - Mike_Doc - 2016-03-11 Hi Marcel, I was using path substitution as I had the HP 260 G1 nettop and it only had 32GB SSD, I got down to less than 1GB left so plugged in a 3TD external HDD. I've upgraded to a Revo One RL85 with 60GB SSD which has around 25GB left but still use the path substitution. I need to clean up my thumbnails folder as well. Also, got somewhere recently with animated posters, forgot I can't use your window properties in either itemlayout or focusedlayout which is where I was trying to add them. Tried another view and it is working, can it not work within a list/ layout? RE: skin helper service - mikeSiLVO - 2016-03-12 (2016-03-11, 20:47)Mike_Doc Wrote: Hi Marcel,Could be wrong but I think marcel added a "webservice" to use in layouts. Perhaps this is currently available when using it, but I have no idea Sir Doc RE: skin helper service - Mike_Doc - 2016-03-12 You could be right MikeS, but after plugging in this: <texture background="true">http://localhost:52307/getthumb&title=$INFO[Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.AnimatedPoster)]</texture> I get Youtube errors? Marcel does webservice required youtube? just when looking for the latest and got version 5.1.20... but still the same error when I get to where to posters should show up?

But this $INFO[Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.AnimatedPoster)] Doesn't work in layouts (item/focused)? well for me anyway? RE: skin helper service - wyrm - 2016-03-12 (2016-03-12, 18:20)Mike_Doc Wrote: Hi Angelinas,Mike_Doc, Wrong bracket type around the $INFO. See the documentation, you need to use { } not [ ] . Should then work. Wyrm (AppTV) RE: skin helper service - Mike_Doc - 2016-03-12 Hi Wyrm, never noticed that, thanks. But again on updating to use { } I still get you tube error and no animation.? EDIT: My bad, changed the wrong tag structure, got it like this now: <texture background="true">http://localhost:52307/getthumb&title=$INFO{Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.AnimatedPoster)}</texture> and it no longer you tube errors but just returns the same image, which seems to be strange> something connected to Aladdin of all films? RE: skin helper service - Angelinas - 2016-03-12 Nooo that is code for thumb from google or youtube... You want animated poster. Give me 30 min and sand you what to change for your mod skin. |
