It seems I'm always at Artist level so all your music props are @ artist level, even though the focus is now an albums level list?

I suppose you're using a custom container panel for that, right.
In that case you'll have to set the widgetcontainer property, just like you would use on the homescreen.
If the widgetcontainer prop is empty, the script will set all properties for info it can find for Listitem.Blahblah but when the widgetcontainer is set, it will do it's magic for info found on the Container(xxx).ListItem.blahblah.

So, set the SkinHelper.WidgetContainer property when the user focuses your album panel to the ID of that panel and clear it again if the focus is back on the artist level, should work :-)

Hi Marcel,

The 2 albums counters are working, thanks for them.

The problem I have is that the main list, say 811 is always focused. I have this:

<control type="group">
<visible>System.IdleTime(5) + !StringCompare(ListItem.Label,..)</visible>
<include>Artist_Albums</include>
</control>

Where Artist_albums has list 812 in it. 812 is never focused as it just displays a list after system idle of 5 seconds. No matter what I've tried I can't get Kodi to thin it is 'focused' on 812, the debug always says 811 even when 812 is diaplayed and working?

Seem some of those now TADB api calls might help so I might have to wait until you get round to refactoring the code etc. etc. and add those in.

Not sure there's another way at the moment?

Here's the include:

Code:
<include name="Artist_Albums">

The last section Music.Tracklist shows all tracks for the artist not the Container(812).ListItem.Album. Ignore some of the code as alot of it is hack code to get logo etc as most of your props don't work, hence the hack code to get cdart. This is WIP so alot will change if of course there is a light at the end of the tunnel or not?

and here's a video of it in action with current code:

Hmm, it's a tricky one. The list doesn't need to be focused for the properties to be set, as long as you set the right container ID in the window prop.
Why not have the user navigating to the albums himself, so use an <onright> to focus the albums ? That would solve all the issues.

As for the other props, you're using all the workaround stuff for the music artwork but that is just something I have a solution for in the script.
Or did you just do that to workaround this issue ?

I think the best is to have the user focus the 2nd list himself, that will prevent you from a major headache with using alarmclocks etc.

You shouldn't install this script by hand but install it from the repo, that way you make sure you have all dependencies set.

Hi Marcel,

That was my first idea to do onright and eveything was working except for some strange begaviour, see here.

For some strange reason after doing onright, browsing the albums, selecting one and going to songs i would then go back a level which changed the main vetical list to albums and then up another level and the only arist listed was the one selected? For some reason the mian list will only show the one artist?

And as you can see in that thread it seems there's no solution as well?

I just put all the workarounds in workaround the problem.

Mike.

Another question, for Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.Music.ClearLogo), need to Skin.SetBool something ? Because it's working on library but not on home with widgets.

You shouldn't install this script by hand but install it from the repo, that way you make sure you have all dependencies set.

By hand? I installed it from git. Is that by hand?

Which repo? I tried searching for it, but couldn't.

For whatever reason I couldn't find the script in repo

That was my first idea to do onright and eveything was working except for some strange begaviour, see here.

For some strange reason after doing onright, browsing the albums, selecting one and going to songs i would then go back a level which changed the main vetical list to albums and then up another level and the only arist listed was the one selected? For some reason the mian list will only show the one artist?

And as you can see in that thread it seems there's no solution as well?

I just put all the workarounds in workaround the problem.

Mike.

I believe this is happening because you're doing these tricks within the default music library (mymusicnav.xml).
I think it will work much better if you just use a custom window for this.

It was in fact another issue but the same cause. Now fixed on Git so please test if it's working.

You need to set the window property SkinHelper.WidgetContainer with the ID of your widget container.
So, if you're displaying the widget in a container with ID 510, please set a the window property to that ID.
Remember to clear the property again if the widget isn't displayed any more.

This script is used as a dependency for skins, you shouldn't install it by hand.
It's invisible on the repo as it is a helper service, it doesn't provide actual tools or whatsoever.

Yes it's working ! Thanks !

It's ok for widget.

But How I can use Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.Music.DiscArt) on Music visualisation ? Possible ?

See the readme, there are special properties for the player available.
