Thanks, will fix. This issue affects video addons only.

Will the fix be applied to the jarvis branch ?

Yes, should be able to push it later today.

Update: Took me a little longer to get to it, fix just pushed to github. Please let me know if this doesn't resolve the artwork issues.

Another question I don't find the setting to change the icon pack for the weather addon ?

Open weather and press left to open the side menu. You'll see option to select the weather icons and weather fanart.

Im in love with Mimic so far and everything works perfectly fine.Rofl
I just cant change my backgrounds. If i want to change to single or multi backgrounds it only shows me "Repos" to select? No file selection, only the repos i added.

Sorry if this was already asked before but i couldn`t find an answere anywhere.

You'll need to add your folder of background images using File Manager first. Then it will be available in the select dialog.

I have updated the Infolabels in the LowPanel view to the point where I am happy with them. And they are behaving consistently.
Have borrowed icons and ideas from AZ, Eminence and BelloFredo

Thanks to braz. This skin is so versatile.

Now braz, can you please tell me how I can add an episode thumb in the Lowlist view?
I cannot find the code or the condition for it. Just point me to the code or an example that can give me a direction?

The image is determined by the PosterVar variable. See around line 15 in View_501_LowList.xml. You could add an episode thumb to that variable, but you would probably want to limit it to the LowList view so it doesn't affect other parts of the skin.


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - SSorcereRR - 2016-05-01

Thanks. Will look into it now.
Also i wanted to update you on small things I have noticed.

The icon is missing here

and there is no alphabet indication when scrolling down the list in repositories or in Addons.

Nothing major but thought I should let you know. Maybe if you can replicate or fix it.

Thanks for the report!

Confirmed the missing icon in the Jarvis version of Mimic. It's already fixed in the Krypton version, will take a look at some point but this is low priority.

The sort letter only shows up when sorting by Title. I just extended it to also show when sorting by Name or Artist in the Krypton version of Mimic. Not sure if I will get around to adding this for Jarvis.

While I'm struggling with the addition of a new view option in the skin (I will meke it!!!!), I was wondering if you can help me with the current widget visualization.

The point is just restricted to the TV Shows. It would be nice in fact that also for the Shift visualization (and having selected the Landscape option for the icons) the results would be like the Panel visualization, i.e. showing the episode thumbnails instead of the serie's fanart:

Shift + Landscape

Panel + Landscape

I'm asking this because I really prefer the Shift visualization, but I find it really "repetitive" if the fanart is displayed instead of the episode "snaphot".

Thanks in advance for your usual help!

Will fix this, thanks for pointing it out.

Update: Now fixed on github.

Hi braz,

Time ago you helped me about the visualization issue I quoted above (modification was on github).

I have now installed the latest version of Mimic for Jarvis (version 3.4.1), and what I see with this version is just the opposite wrt your previous modification: fanarts are now showed for both combinations as in the first screenshot. At least for me this seems to be quite redundant giving no added value to the widget. Would it be possible revert back to the thumbnails (episodes snapshot)? I saw these are showed in case I choose "square" in the widget option, but the thumbnails in fact are cut and squared (this is good instead for the music album covers).

If not possible, can you please clearly point where I can implement the modification?

Thanks and thanks!

Sounds like you're saying you get fanart instead of episode thumbs now, even when using the square widget art option? I can't replicate that here, episode thumbs are showing with square and landscape widgets, with the tv show poster when poster is selected. Are you sure your widget contains episodes?


RE: Mimic 3.x for Jarvis - DR9x - 2016-05-03

Reporting:

When I view File Lists the size of the files are gone and replaced with watch status circles. I need to have file size back if possible.

Thanks!
