Is it only me or everyone having the same issue?
Also is it possible to include the font like this (I don't know what its called possibly Sans Serif)?

This font would look really cool in autoscroll description along with media flags imo. Not bold though. Just a request if its possible
On github there is a list view for settings that includes Addons. Addons is also now in the default System submenu.
No idea which font that is, but there are already several options. Have you tried Roboto?
RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - SSorcereRR - 2016-04-02
I think its Sans Serif. Please include it. Yeah I have tried Roboto but not feeling it. Default font is awesome but was hoping for something wider.
I had a look under system but cannot find the addon option for some reason. I'm using Jarvis BTW.
Its the font used on HBO.com website. I think it will look amazing with your skin.
Possibly be Open Sans. I'm 95% sure its Open Sans

Sans serif is a font type, it's not the name of a font. And the one in the image isn't Open Sans either, the T and the G don't match.

I just checked the HBO site. Someone mentioned Gotham
http://www.typography.com/fonts/gotham/styles/
And then Gotham Book
RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - rpcameron - 2016-04-02
Gotham is not available under any type of freely redistributable license. Only fonts that can be freely distributed (or ones which the skin author has paid the license fees for) can be included in the skin.
If you wish to use Gotham, you would have to purchase the fonts, and then modify the skin resources to use it.

That's a shame. I will look into it. Great font though.
Have you removed RSS feed in your latest update?

Just started updating Mimic for Kodi 17 Krypton, and the master branch on Github is now for Krypton only. The Jarvis version has its own branch...

RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - SSorcereRR - 2016-04-03
I was playing with the Media Flags in your skin. As I'm used to of LowPanel view, I adjusted the positions of the media flags.
I noticed it shows the media flags in Movies but doesn't show proper flags in TV shows or if I go to an addon that contains Movies or TV Shows.
So I ventured into comparing view files with different skins. I cannot figure out how to consistently display the media flags across all video files.
Skins like Arctic Zephyr, Eminence have consistent media flags whether you are in Movies, TV Shows or in an addon.
Is there any plan to incorporate consistent media flags across all videos in Mimic?
I have attached some screenshots

I hope you get what I'm trying to say. I have only investigated the LowPanel view as that is what I'm interested in
Btw your skin with black and white background on a big TV looks really good

Not all video addons do, however, and some don't fill the infolabels until you start playing the file. In your Bello example, those are not media flags like aspect ratio, codec, resolution, etc. So can't compare the two. If you want that other info (rating, year, duration) you can add it, but again, it's up to the addons to provide those infolabels.

How do I add it? Is it after the media flags?
Any chance of incorporating those?
As you can see from my question I'm.pretty much useless in skin editing

Is it possible to add a entry in mimic settings? In this case i don't need to edit every mimic update the includes.xml.
