Instead it looks like it did in 2.0.

Another issue: the genre icons for movies and music (e.g. http://i.imgur.com/9YNpuB6.jpg) are missing except where the localized name matches the English word. So for example I have "Sci-fi"(=="Sci-fi") icon but not "Vígjáték" (=="Romance").

Any pointers appreciated.

I installed Jarvis/Mimic 3 on top of Isengard. Maybe my problems are caused by some remnants of the old installation conflicting with the new? Can I do I fresh start for the UI/skins but keep the media library and system settings.
For weather, there is a radio button in the side menu for the basic view.

Not sure what to do about genre icons. Do they show up correctly with your language in any other skins?

Hi,
I often use kodi+mimic for playing music. Usually I go to Music->Files submenu, choose folder and play it. Recently I noticed that item that is currently being played is not highlighted. Same holds for playlist view too. Of course everything works fine with Confluence.

It's strange no one is reporting similar problem. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS + Kodi 16.0 and mimic 3.3.1 (resetted skin settings) on two different PCs.

Maybe it has to do with python (have 2.7.5 installed) errors in the log file?

I completely redesigned List view, will check later. Do you mean the currently playing song labels are not the highlight color? I plan on adding a play icon instead.


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - NKK64 - 2016-02-23

Yes, song labels (titles) are not in highlight colour. Anything that allows to quickly detect which song is playing will do (small icon on the left?) though usually people don't like changes in what they are already used to Big Grin

Btw checked that those python errors are absent when running confluence.

Thanks for very nice skin.

Users should expect regular changes when I'm in a skinning mood. Wink

That error is related to the skinshortcuts script, you should post the entire debug log in the script thread.

Unless you are actually experiencing any issues with the main menu being built, please don't Smile

That particular error is handled by the script - it is saying that it can't find the file it uses to check whether the menu needs to be built, and so will build the menu. It is not something you need to worry about (unless, as I say, you are actually experiencing issues with the script...)

Thanks Bob! I knew you would have the answer, I learn something every day.


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - xSchnitzlerx - 2016-02-23

Hey braz, I just wanted to thank you for the awesomet skinning work, making kodi a great experience. Really looking forward to seeing my favourite skin on Krypton. Any plans for that in the future?


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - Cudi - 2016-02-23

I've another problem now Smile I really hope its a bug, and not a new feature ;D

I am missing the "current playlist" entry in the left sidepanel under ACTIONS... I am 100% sure, that below Version ~3.2 this was working as I using this option frequently. I switched back to Confluence and Aeon Nox and both skins will show me the "current playlist" entry under ACTIONS @ the sidepanel

Bummer, the weather screen Tongue

The genre icons do not show up at all, in any skin. Except that mimic shows the matching ones. Tried changing the locale too, no success... Something is weird with with my installation. Sorry to bother you!

Yeah, it's going to be a bit though, want to finish up the Jarvis version first.

It should still be available if you are playing media, I just moved it further down the list. Will check tonight.

Not sure from your post if the weather screen is ok or still an issue?

Skins would need to implement genre icons for them to show up, I'm not sure which ones have. This may be English only as the way it works now is it compares the genre to the filename.


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - vgabor - 2016-02-23

The weather screen is ok, user error. Please ignore.

For the sake of testing, I deleted the .kodi folder for a fresh start and Artist Slideshow is still not working. Neither the genre icons, although I did leave the locale at default English.
What else can be reset apart from deleting the .kodi folder?


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - vgabor - 2016-02-24

Hm, I have no music visualizations at all and I can't seem to find any installable. May be related?
