@beatmasterrs , are you using the latest version of Amber and have the setting enabled? I switched from using skin.info.service for that info to using a hidden list, and it works fine for me.

Yes i'm using the latest version from github, the leia branch. I have no idea what is causing this behavior. Maybe someone here could reproduce this? Undecided

From what I understand, is it to display on the poster of the collection the number of movies ?
I tried but it does not work, nothing is displayed.
I just have the number of movies in the collection information.

Thank you for this addition.
Is it possible to add the number of plays of a song in the list views ?

It's good, the ratio is correct for album images and artist photos.

(2020-05-18, 21:47)bsoriano Wrote: 4. More fixes to the French translation (thanks @cyberdom).
Thank you.

@Cyberdom , the setting for the collection count just shows the number of movies in the collection, it does not show it on the top right overlay. I was not able to get consistent behavior for putting it in the top right overlay, so I dropped that functionality.

Thanks for pointing out that play count for music is missing for list views, I will fix that.

And thank you for continuing with the translation.

Bart

@bsoriano, can you post a screenshot to see where the number of movies in a collection is displayed with this new option ?

Is the number of movies displayed in the collection information ?

For my part, the number of movies in a collection is displayed even without activating this new option.

And you are correct, even if you turn the setting to No, the info is shown. This happens if you also have script.skin.info.service installed, as it is used as fallback. If you do not have that addon, then this info is not shown.

@beatmasterrs , could you please try disabling script.skin.info.service (you might have to disable other skins that have it as a dependency) and restarting Kodi, making sure that the setting "Show Collections Count" is set to Yes? That way we are sure that the info is coming from the hidden list. I still have script.skin.info.service as fallback for the collection count info.

Please let me know if that shows the correct info. If it does, then the issue is script.skin.info.service. I most likely will remove it as fallback for that info. Thanks.

@beatmasterrs , I found the issue. If you put that info in the itemlayout/focusedlayout of the list in the view, the results are inconsistent and ofter wrong. That is why I decided against showing it in the top right overlay. For the BigList view, I will put it in the info panel below the fanart. That works well. I will include that in the next update. Thank you for pointing out this issue.

Regards,

Bart

EDIT: @beatmasterrs , please check out version 3.2.83. It includes the fix. Thanks.

RE: Amber for Leia/Matrix - bsoriano - 2020-05-20

Hello all,

I just uploaded versions 3.2.83 (Leia) and 3.3.83 (Matrix) to GitHub and the Amber repos. Main changes:

1. Fixed album/songs play count information for list views. Now looks like this:

2. Fixed collection count information for BigList view. Now looks like this:

3. Fix (hopefully) for video OSD when Kodi gets a mouse event and no control is focused. Before, you could not get to the Pause or Stop buttons unless you had a mouse. Now, if you press down, Amber should focus on the button list and you can get to the buttons using arrow keys.

4. More fixes for French translation (thanks @Cyberdom ).

5. I did not receive any responses in terms of what other languages are being used with Amber, so I have removed all languages except the following:

- English
- French
- Spanish
- Portuguese
- Italian
- Dutch
- German
- Finnish

If you use Amber in a different language than those above, please let me know and I will bring back the translation for your language.

Please download, test, and let me know if you find any issues. Thanks.

Regards,

Bart

@Cyberdom, do you mean the number of plays for songs, albums, movies, episodes, etc., or the number of movies in the collection? Which is it that you would like the option not to display?

Is script.skin.info.service useful for other functions in Amber ?

@Cyberdom, thanks for the response. I will need to add a setting for that. Script.skin.info.service is used in Amber to provide info on sets, so there is no need to disable it.
