RE: Rapier 11.2.35 for Kodi 18 Leia - MidnightWatcher - 2019-04-22

Thank you @Gade! That works perfectly! Is it possible to make hiding the busy dialog an option in the GUI (ie, Default, Off During Fullscreen Playback, Always Off)? Or if I set DialogBusy.xml to be read-only, would that be problematic for skin updates?

Glad to help.

I don't think permanently hiding the busy dialog in a skin setting is a good idea, as many of Kodi's features use that dialog.

Setting the dialog to read-only will prevent the dialog from future updates.
And it might conflict with skin updates, which might fail.

RE: Rapier 11.2.35 for Kodi 18 Leia - MidnightWatcher - 2019-04-22

Ok noted. Is there a way by chance to delay the busy dialog so that it'll wait, say, two seconds before showing on screen? I thought there used to be a way to do this. Worst case is I can just disable automatic updates for the skin and do them manually after updates are available so that I'll know I then need to update DialogBusy.xml.

RE: Rapier 11.2.35 for Kodi 18 Leia - Spazholio - 2019-05-04

I notice that this skin supports the "IMDB Update" plugin, but that has to be installed manually. I've tried and tried to get that thing installed, but it's just not working. Looks like it hasn't been touched in several years either. Is there another plugin that I can use that does the same thing that Rapier integrates with?

@Spazholio

You could try this add-on... https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=316342

I use it and it works fine. Use the 3.5.1 version. The 4.0.0 version has some flaws if you use dvd or absolute ordering.

I haven't tested this, but I guess you can a delay to the dialog.

Replace line 14 in DialogBusy.xml with:

Code:
<animation type="WindowOpen">

    <effect type="fade" end="100" time="225" delay="2000"/>

    <effect type="slide" start="0,-15" time="300" tween="cubic" easing="out" delay="2000"/>

</animation>

<animation type="WindowClose">

    <effect type="fade" end="0" time="325" />

    <effect type="slide" end="0,-15" time="400" tween="cubic" easing="out"/>

</animation>

<animation type="Visible">

    <effect type="fade" end="100" time="225" delay="2000"/>

    <effect type="slide" start="0,-15" time="300" tween="cubic" easing="out" delay="2000"/>

</animation>

<animation type="Hidden">

    <effect type="fade" end="0" time="325" />

    <effect type="slide" end="0,-15" time="400" tween="cubic" easing="out"/>

</animation>

Thanks! The best keeps on getting better!

Hi @Gade, is there a way to only view (or only hide) 4K titles? I'm purchasing a lot of 4K movies and I'm adding them to my server, but would like to view lists in my library that are 4K only, or lists that are 1080p (or less) only. Since I'm adding both the 1080p Blurays as well as the 4K versions to my server, I'm getting a doubling of these titles on the list since it shows everything.

RE: Rapier 11.2.44 for Kodi 18 Leia - skybird1980 - 2019-08-07

Smart Playlists can be your Solution. Just Add Resulution minimum 1 and max 1081 for only 1080p material and minumum 1081 for 4k material Smile
