I've uploaded a screenshot http://imgur.com/a/pIwdm

I can't move right from what I've marked on the screenshot.

About the OSD buttons, can you give me some directions, if it's possible to hide them, which file or section should I edit.

Are you running the latest Kodi 17 nightly? What OS/platform are you using? There are tempo up/down buttons that will show up there if the player supports it. What are you playing in the screenshot, is it a local file or a video addon?

I haven't been able to reproduce the issue here on Windows 10.

Interesting. The Kodi version is 17 beta 1

I didn't know about this new buttons in the OSD. I did some googling and I've found that there are some bugs related to the tempo function and the video playback.

The two buttons showed up, when I've enabled the option "Sync playback to display" - http://imgur.com/a/CKfsb

Now everything seems to be working fine.

Too bad for hiding the OSD buttons though. I use IR remote control with FLIRC and all those OSD buttons - Play, Pause, etc. are really unnecessary. I guess I will try to bind buttons on the remote for the OSD functions as a workaround.

Thank you @braz

Ah, I forgot about the sync playback setting. Will test again after turning it off.

Look in VideoOsd.xml, you could comment out any of the controls you don't need.

Changed the button IDs, which seems to have fixed the navigation issue when "Sync playback" is turned off. Fix is on github, will be in next release.

I'm having another problem with the OSD buttons. There is no color distinction between all the buttons. They are all white, so not only can you not see which button is active I do believe possibly none is actually active because moving left or right changes nothing and clicking doesn't do anything either. The only menu that opens is the subtitles dropdown. even then no color indication on the OSD button itself. The color is not the big problem, but as it is now I have no way of getting to any of the OSD menues like for example audio.

I hope this wasn't covered before? Let me know if you need logs.

Krypton Beta 1, Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, Intel Kodi NUC

oh btw, I love this skin!

The focused button is highlighted, it should be easy to see. (Blue circle if using the default colors).

Nevermind. A system restart fixed the issue, now the colors are back as usually and the OSD is functional again. Sorry for bothering.

Default Widgets-----PVR Channels has stopped showing. PVR Channels (with artwork) still works. Is it a Kodi or Skin problem. I stay up to date with Nighties and Mimic.

Widgets are provided by skin.helper.service. You can try manually updating to the latest version of the script on github.

Mimic 4 only has options to display extrafanart for a few views, like InfoWall and showcase. And not as full screen fanart, but just in the info panel. Nox 5 and mimic are very different skins now.

RE: Mimic 4.x for Krypton - Edworld - 2016-10-01

Does the extrafanart file need to be named extrafanart1, extrafanart2, etc?. And do they cycle or just 1 image?

Thanks in advance

They need to be added to the database with script.toolbox. They will cycle.

ok, thanks

braz,

Just downloaded from repo and can't find the power button to exit the skin. The other thing I noticed, is that dialogvideoinfo doesn't display the movieset poster.
