[pkscout]

THIS MOD IS NOT BEING MAINTAINED ANY LONGER. YOU MAY INSTALL IT IF YOU WISH, BUT THERE IS NO SUPPORT. YOU MAY NEED TO MANUALLY UPDATE THE REQUIRED ADDONS TO GET THIS TO WORK.

Well, after years of using Estuary (and maintaining a mod of that), I thought I'd change to a skin that I wouldn't have to mod.  And that went about as well as you would expect.  '-)

Once installed just selected the Arctic Zephyr 2 Mod (pkscout).

----MATRIX INFORMATION---
There is also a version of this mod for Matrix.  To use it you have to install my Matrix skin repo at:

https://github.com/pkscout/repository.sk....1.101.zip

The Matrix mod only has fixes absolutely required to get it running in Matrix and a community contributed addition of reminder and catchup PVR icons.  That includes fixes to MyVideoNav so that the images show up correctly and updated calls to scripts (Matrix depreciated the script call syntax AZ2 is using in Leia).  If you are using skin.helper.service, skin.helper.widgets, or skin.helper.backup, there is work in progress on Matrix versions of these scripts, but nothing in the Kodi repo that can be installed yet.  You're probably going to have to update some files manually.  I can't answer questions about these updates or help you install/troubleshoot them, but here are links to the pull requests for the various updates:

skin.helper.service: https://github.com/kodi-community-addons...e/pull/132

skin.helper.widgets: https://github.com/kodi-community-addons...ts/pull/41

skin.helper.backup: https://github.com/kodi-community-addons...up/pull/12

Known Issues:
None

---END MATRIX INFORMATION

Here are my changes from the core AZ2.

- fixed MusicOSD layout so that you can use fullest possible width of screen
- fixed case where language/studio tags where shown in 2 locations when looking at Info Dialog boxes
- fixed issue where center header would display a seemingly random number
- added PVR TV recording status widget (inspired by Estuary)
- added enhanced PVR navigation (see info below)
- added season/ep number and ep title in PVR listings detail
- added detailed PVR timer list (inspired by Estuary)
- added option to use higher contrast text in unselected widgets (skin settings > miscellaneous > use higher contrast text for unselected widgets)
- added option to include the page and item count on list pages (skin settings > library > show page and item counts on list page)
- added option for higher contrast color (in interface settings > color)
- added option for Roboto Regular font (in interface settings > font)
- added option for slightly larger Roboto Regular fonts at smallest sizes (in interface settings > font)
- made a few minor layout adjustments to deal with larger font options

Enhanced PVR navigation includes 2 items.  In the PVR Channel List OSD, you can rotate through channel groups using the left/right actions.  In the PVR Guide Listing, the back button will focus on the current channel group so you can easily change it.  These were both implemented in Arctic Horizon and back ported to this Arctic Zephyr 2 mod.

You can add the PVR TV recording status widget to any screen, but it MUST BE THE FIRST WIDGET in the list or it will not show.  Unlike the Settings and Weather widgets, you can have other widgets on the screen with the PVR TV recording status widget, they just have to be AFTER it.
