Avoid Duration Time Calculation - Axdice - 2019-10-19

Hello,

I'm using KODI 18.4 and Confluence as skin.

My question is regarding the Video module : when I select all my movies, it displaying everything fine however it (KODI or confluence) it re-calculate each time the global time of all my movies.
I don't care that much about this option but it's quite annoying cause  my harddrive spinning round and round during minutes for that.

I really have no clue where can I do changes in the configuration

Thanks for you help

Regards

You can do this by editing addons/skin.confluence.720p/includes.xml
Search for a group including "Container Duration Label" and remove it.

No idea if there's an easier way.  No idea why anyone would want to know the total duration.

Sound great. I'll change the configuration of this file asap.

Thanks again

Just make sure you save the original includes.xml, as you may notice other unwanted effects.
And be aware you'll need to repeat the edit whenever confluence is updated.

Hi Trogggy,

Some side effects appears in Confluence main page : black screen, impossible to navigate through the main menu...
This function seems to be link with some others or it's more deeply in the code.
I set back the default xml  and will look around the other configuration file.

Thanks again

Then you didn't make a clean edit of the file.

Remove this, and make sure you don't cut out anything else.
xml:
<control type="label">

    <description>Container Duration Label</description>

    <right>40</right>

    <top>32r</top>

    <width>500</width>

    <height>20</height>

    <font>font12</font>

    <textcolor>grey</textcolor>

    <scroll>false</scroll>

    <align>right</align>

    <aligny>center</aligny>

    <label>$INFO[Container.TotalTime,$LOCALIZE[31009] (,)]</label>

    <include>Window_OpenClose_Animation</include>

 </control>

No need to even go that far, simply remove the 

xml:
$INFO[Container.TotalTime,$LOCALIZE[31009] (,)]

bit.
