I was talking about Bello because, for instance, that skin has "IMDB TOP 250" built-in playlist to choose from among several others but they don't show on my Custom Channel in Leanback Launcher. I thought those were also Smart Playlists so either they are but the skin is not optimized (It's a MOD afterall, version 7 is coming) or they are not smart playlists.(2018-12-06, 06:14)djhifi Wrote:(2018-11-26, 15:11)cscott1 Wrote: Yes Titan and its Mods all refresh the widgets after playing an item works perfect with Kodi 18 and Android TV as an added bonus you can create your own channels for the Oreo version simply by making a smartplaylist in Kodi 18. I made a continue watching channel similar to Netflix by creating a playlist of all my In progress tv shows.Nice! But regarding the "continue watching" my leanback launcher already shows that custom channel originating from KODI. I never quite understood if those channels are KODI related or skin related. So you're saying that whatever the skin you use, if you create a smart playlist it displays on the leanback launcher as a "check" option?
Im using Bello 6 modded for Leia but it seems to work a little fishy with all these. The added bónus is that it has built-in widgets. But I also use Emby for KODI (and it also populates the custom channels with some options), like "Emby Movies" but "Movies" is the same library, and it's also there in the leanback launcher, makes little sense
The thing is, regarding playlists, Emby for KODI already has in progress stuff tied with my user accounts from my Emby. So I should have access to those in the leanback launcher but I do not. Might give this skin a try
Yes when creating smart playlist in the Homescreen settings every smart playlist you create becomes a channel that you tick to enable.
The only skins that I am for sure the playlists pointing to your library works are Titan and Estuary those are the only two I use. As far as Emby I am not familiar with it and I don't know if you can set up the playlists to pull from it. I use a banned add-on with library integration for my library and it works it would just take a lil experimentation maybe use a Kodi 18 fork to try it out without messing up your current setup.
I also have "nodes" which come from Emby for KODI plugin that have "watching" both for movies and shows, I might give titan a try and see how it integrates with all this. Already asked over at Emby for KODI plugin forums about this. Thanks for being helpful man
EDIT: How can I add "recently added" tv shows and movies to leanback launcher? Only via smart playlist? if so, which are the settings? Because so far I can only see Movies and TV Shows on leanback launcher, and even if I sort them by "date added" in KODI, leanback launcher doesn't change. Still shows alphabetical
PS: Do you have "Play Next" working with KODI content? Mine is not populating. Probably skin related?
