Widget behavior - joeyd2424 - 2018-03-01

Someone above said something similar to a problem I've encountered. When I add a widget to the main screen using "tvshows-studios-then whatever network I pick" I get a constant flashing widget that keeps showing the genre icons. I tried the same thing in horizon and got the same problem. Tested in other skins and works fine. Thanks in advance. If a log is required I will post after work. Great job as well. Also using krypton on an Nvidia shield. Also the widget works fine in fuse.

@D-m-x -- Can you try the latest version of Aura from github and see if you are still getting high CPU. I've added a number of optimisations which hopefully will reduce the CPU load. Also, I've added a viewmode disabler in Skin Settings > Miscellaneous. Use that to disable any viewmodes that you are not using in the skin -- this should give an additional boost.

@VikkiXavier - I added an option to disable labels in Skin Settings > Miscellaneous Smile

@Silki - The home screen dims under the text to make it readable - this happens when displaying a background with no widgets. Otherwise bright backgrounds make the top text unreadable.
-- I added the show fanart option in. Pressing up from the viewmode menu in the library will show the fanart.

@mark2112 - Thanks Big Grin In what screen is the flickering occurring?

@meccs - Unfortunately I don't have a copy of the Leia version of DialogAddonSettings.xml as I don't use Leia. Hopefully someone else here has a copy.

@Blurayx - Do you have a copy of the DialogAddonSettings that you could upload? Seems that bsoriano has taken his copy down - I really should have hosted it somewhere! Just PM it to me and I can put it on github or another hosting site.

@joeyd2424 - Should be fixed now. Thanks for the bug report Smile

@jurialmunkey 

Yes, I still have a copy, I will upload it later  Smile


RE: Aura - VikkiXavier - 2018-03-01

Thanks jurial. You're quick.


RE: Aura - VikkiXavier - 2018-03-01

@jurialmunkey please provide an option to rearrange the order/position of the widgets..

Is there a way to change the background of the addons and settings window?

 The fanart doesn't show when I am using Blur effect.


RE: Aura - mardup - 2018-03-01

Hey Jurial, do you plan to add ExtendedInfo Script in widgets ( TheMovieDB > movies in theatre, etc.) , I find it in Horizon, but not in Aura ( on the same machine )
Thnak you for all your creations !

@jurialmunkey 

Here is the DialogAddonSettings.xml file for kodi 18  Smile

@VikkiXavier
--- Arranging widgets
Unfortunately, skin shortcuts doesn't provide a way to rearrange the widgets and I haven't found any sane way to do it in the skin. I really wish there was some way to achieve it, but every way I've seen has major draw backs.

--- Changing Addons / Settings background.
You can't change them individually, but you can change the general fallback image which is used. Skin Settings > Background > Set fallback image

--- Show fanart onup should now work properly when blur is enabled.

@Blurayx - Thanks so much! Do you mind if I put your link in the first post, or do you want me to re-upload it somewhere else first?

@mardup - You can use any video add-on as a widget.
In the home customisation screen, click the widget to be customised and select the following:
Add-ons > Video Add-ons > Extended Info > TheMovieDB > In-cinema Movies > Use as widget


RE: Aura - Blurayx - 2018-03-01

@jurialmunkey 

No problem, I'll link the first post  Smile

Where exactly do you want me to link it to the first post?


RE: Aura - VikkiXavier - 2018-03-01

I am facing another issue. After entering the TV Show through the widgets, when I enter "Play", it returns to the previous page (home page of TV Shows).

PS: I have 'Show information' as default action enabled.

No no. I was just asking if you are okay with me putting your link in the first post (i.e. are you going to keep the link up or do I need to host it somewhere else?)


RE: Aura - jurialmunkey - 2018-03-01

@VikkiXavier - Does the episode not start playing?
The action of the play button is controlled by Kodi, so I can't stop it from closing the info dialog.
