Simple method;
Go to video/files and bring up the context menu for your folder, then set content. 'This directory contains' select movies and 'Exclude path form library updates'. Movies and TV Shows use a 1/1.5 aspect poster. All other content uses a square poster. I had to code it this way to have the overlay over the image, so aspect ratio is locked to what content Kodi displays.

Recommended method;

This is what I use for my concerts. It allows you to be able to select all the views and show metadata like the plot, year etc. so you can see all that eye candy.
So if your concert is not on the TMDb you will have to create an account and add a movie, then artwork, plot, year ect. This helps the community and also if anything where to happen to your database you can simply scrape all the info off the web.
Thanks for your support and your ideas (and your hard work, again). However, none of these methods actually are an option for me. I use filemode a lot for many videos which I don't want or can't include in my library. There aren't only concerts but videos I've made of my family, clips I downloaded from YouTube, programmes I recorded on TV, documentaries etc. Some of these are 16:9, some are 4:3, some are the aspect ratio of my smartphone etc. It's just unusable if the skin can't use the correct aspect ratio in filemode. All of these display incorrectly in the new Madnox skin.

Moreover, I've noticed that the skin doesn't show the Watched-Status for files in filemode, which Aeon Nox does, of course. This is another aspect that makes the current version of Madnox unusable for me (too sad I noticed this after already having installed it on 8 devices in my home :-( ). Hopefully these two issues can be fixed, in the meantime, I'll have to switch back to Aeon Nox, which I really regret because I loved the new skin :-(

Another issue: Banner-View for TV-Shows doesn't give information about how many unseen episodes there are for a show. This was also very useful in Aeon Nox and I regret it's not in the new skin :-(

There are also lots of problems in the music section, but this isn't so important for me at the moment. Perhaps I'll come back to that if the problems concerning filemode will be fixed one day and I can actually use the skin.

Much appreciating using it. The best skin ever
View/info/4thumbs shows the artwork from the ExtraFanart folder. Is there a way to change it? 
Using Artworkbeef and my structure is Moviefolder>extrathumbs>thumb1.jpg, thumb2.jpg, thumb3.jpg, thumb4.jpg
I cant figure out how to enable background fanart top right when highlighting a widget on home screen ?
Am assuming it must be possible ?

Good afternoon friends

I have two more problems with Madnox Leia because I cleanly uninstalled the 18.5 version that I had and installed 18.9 and Madnox again.

The first time I installed Madnox kodi 18 I read the animated discs of the boxes or cases, they appeared to me with the cover as I show in the photograph.The collection or saga of movies, the case appeared to me in this way too ...

[url = https: //imgbb.com/] picture in picture online [/ url]

Now my new clean installation of Madnox Kodi 18 Leia appears to me the animated disk without any cover or drawing and the collection or movie saga appears to me in this way.

What do I have to install to have the animated discs and the movie saga or collection back as I had before?

Thanks a lot
Hello guys,

is it possible to change the menubar to vertical mode?
Is there a way to make the info line on the main menu /home screen display stats from a specific playlist?
Just discovered this skin a few days ago and love it! How couldn't I find you earlier? xD

Everything is great so far but I have a few things I've noticed:

1. I've looked everywhere in the skin configuration and there are no other fonts to choose from. I do that in previous skins because international characters are shown as squares (for languages like korean and japanese)

2. Also, when I scroll the episode the date numbers seems not to be aligned next to the date icon as you can see. It is under the clock icon.

Thanks for your help!

There's no vertical mode for the home screen in Madnox as far as I'm aware. It's design largely follows Aeon Nox 4.0 with modern customizations. Aeon Nox has never had a vertical mode (Aeon MQ doesn't count as it's a complete redesign by MarcosQui).

I'm a new user of Madnox (but not new to Kodi) having looked for a similar replacement for Xonfluence which probably won't get updated in the future and is starting to age a bit as well.

Overall I'm very happy so far with Madnox, it's amazing, and very fast. A huge THANKS to @Mr. V !!!

However I have quite a list of questions and suggestions & requests, but being new to this Skin I apologise in advance if there are obvious things I have missed or don't understand relative to Madnox Smile

THANK YOU for considering my suggestions & requests, it's much appreciated.

QUESTIONS:

- After setting View types they don't seem to be remembered and set when navigating to the next page? (this might be the same for "Sort by" too?)

- How can I hide the Widget Names on the Home Screen? As a work around I just used a "." (full stop) for the moment to have the minimum possible there.

- Is there a Global option somewhere to hide the Floor everywhere? I adjusted the colour options to be more transparent as a Global work around.

- Is it possible to hide the "Video View Settings" button on the Video Fullscreen OSD? These settings already appear in the Skin Settings and I'd prefer that family members don't have access to this when watching videos, since it's more of a 'setup' menu.

- Does the Buffering indicator in the Video Fullscreen OSD need to be turned on somewhere in the settings? I don't see any buffer indication in the progress bar?

SUGGESTIONS & REQUESTS:

- Option to enlarge the height of the Top Bar (by 50 or 100%?), so that the Weather, Date, Clock, etc are bigger and easier to see from a distance?

- Possibility to display Volume & Mute in the Top Bar? This is a very clean looking solution in Aeon Nox: Silvo. Also at the moment there doesn't seem to be any indication of Mute in Madnox?

- Option to always display the Top Bar Info Line instead of the navigation folder tree location? I know where I just clicked and navigated to, so maybe it's not necessary? (I would prefer to see the weather there like I set in Menus).

- Is it possible to customise the Power Menu pop up display? In fact I would like the possibility for the Power function to directly activate exit.

- Could the Marked Watched, etc, Indicators be larger or clearer please? Because the icon appears a little crowded within the circle. Or maybe just no circles at all?

- Can it be possible to swap the display of the Elapsed time / Total time in the Video Fullscreen OSD so that it appears on the right side instead of the left? My eyes have always just naturally looked to the right, to the end of the progress bar, to see when a video is ending.

- I really use the Left Side Short Cut Menu a lot. So I would also like to have access to it from anywhere on the Main Menu too. At the moment Arrow Down past the Sub Menu displays the special Main Menu Shortcuts. Could this optionally show the Left Side Shortcut Menu instead? Or could the Left Side Shortcut Menu be added as an option to be chosen and displayed as one of these special Main Menu Shortcuts? Alternatively, can this Left Side Shortcut Menu be called from a custom keymap? What is the correct Action / Window ID to do this please?

- I think it would be much nicer if the Home screen Widget Info & Plot display used more or all of the height and width available to be able to see more of the Info & Plot at once? At present I can only see 2 lines of Plot there. Perhaps the Meta Data can also be all on one line to save space?

- On a similar subject, in the InfoList 1 and 2 views, would it be possible to arrange the various Meta Data on the right side in a better way, mostly so that more of the Plot is visible? Again, perhaps the Meta Data can also be all on one line to save space?

Eg: in YouTube, the right side unneccessarily repeats the Episode Title there, and shows the Channel Name further below, reducing the available space to see the Plot & Info (this doesn't seem to happen with TV Shows or Movies though).

- Also, I like the wider view of Info List 2 for these items but unfortunately the Fanart is also displayed and squashed as the Poster. I'm not sure what the solution might be for items like this, where no Poster exists? Maybe something similar to the Addon type view would be nice here, with the source Addon Icon displayed? (I realise that I can just use Info List 1 instead, but as I said I prefer the wider view, again to be able to see more Info, Plot, Description, etc, for these types of items).

Have just discovered this skin, why it took me so long I will never be able to explain.

On a decent 4k screen (in my case XPS13) it is a definite step up in visual quality compared to other Aeon Nox skins.  My only issue is the wrap main menu. Have I missed an option but I much prefer the fixed main menu style of Aeon Nox Silvio and cannot find the equivalent in Madnox?

There is an option for a fixed menu. When you are on the main menu hit down twice. This will pop out a panel on the left hand side with options. Under Menu there is a toggle for a fixed menu.
No media info or plot showing when pressing info on remote or i button on video osd. How to fix this.
Watching media through add-ons, not local files.
Thx.
Hello !
Kodi 19.0 is now available. Do you know if Madnox is compatible ? At first execution, it seems to have disapeared from setup.
Thanks
Have a good day
