Critics Consensus over OMDB API (SkinHelper) is working again!
That happened?

@MB1968

The ratings and votes were not set to scroll. In the files ViewsRightList.xml, MyVideoNav.xml and DialogVideoInfo.xml find the label with the following...

Code:

$INFO[ListItem.RatingAndVotes]

and add the following to the end of the label...

Code:

<scroll>true</scroll>

See if that helps...if it does I'll include it in the next update.

No sir...no code for clearart in KodiFlix where you are asking about.

I tried using "SkinHelper.ListItem.RottenTomatoes.Consensus" to display the Critics Consensus, but that is not working. Is that the property you're using as well?

[hackademic]

browse to your kodi to AAA movies with lots of votes (over 1000 000) and look at these 2 places here in pics marked:
https://ibb.co/cg1KaK
https://ibb.co/cDRkFK
Does the ratings and votes start to dance as soon as there are too many? May the text box is a bit too tight.
(on the pics its fixed)

 Chris, How do i get the rotten tomato and other ratings as shown here in this page?
Also, the Oscar images shown.. that is fantastic, how can i enable that? 

Exactly my question. Those Oscar trophies definitely look cool.
Likewise, I saw that the Critic Consensus working again.
Please let us know how you were able to do that.

Hi Latt, i was able to add clearart to KodiFlix.



I am facing another issue though. And this is mostly a bug.
A few of my BluRay movies are in Untouched ISO format.. and for these movies the box case shows a Movie set image.
I have correctly named my folders and file name as "Movie name (year) BluRay" But cos the file itself is in ISO format, the box case picks up a movieset box image. As you see above the movie Exodus is actually a single movie, but cos the movie is in iso format.. its picking up the box case art as a movie set in red color.

Can you please help?

Chris, How do i get the rotten tomato and other ratings as shown here in this page?

Described some pages before and also requestet
I changed the skin ListItem to look kodi internal and not over skinhelper.I get the Data from my .nfo's, if not using .nfo's you have to use something like this:
https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Rottentoma...er_Library
 

Also, the Oscar images shown.. that is fantastic, how can i enable that? 

Has been requested some time ago, graphics and example .xml's have already been submitted.

That's also a matter of taste, and then the question of where and how to position it.
I would recommend, as I have done, that you get used to and learn basics of .xml if you want to have special things changed in your skin.

It's not that hard, read wiki's and use trial and error princip, i'm also a layman in .xml.

Of course I like to make the graphics available (I have no rights to the pictures):

Sorry, I wasted myself there.
I've been using a custom DialogVideoInfo for a long time, to test for another forum member, I've briefly used the original DialogVideoInfo of Latts, and overlooked the "Critics Consencus" just by replaced by "Plot Outline".

Critics Concencus is still off in SkinHelper
Although it is available in the OMDB API, it is not aviable from SkinHelper.
The same goes for the "votes" on Metascore and Rotten Critis/Audience, it's available through the OMDB API, but not over Skinhelper.

where is Critics Concencus ?!?
This is for movie  "Ocean's Eight"



Sorry but that not included in OMDB api yet...

Hi @latts9923 ,
have you had the possibility to look at the issue at post #1993 ?

[latts9923]

@Jumpy73

Howdy. I have, but I as of yet I am unable to get the focused movie to display its media flags at the bottom.

Can you please help? 

So I have another issue.
I have added this snippet of code for clearart to be displayed in ViewKodiFlix.xml file.. and it works very well. But the clearart is now shown in the movie set page as well.. the clear art is visible in every view under movie set, its when you are in KodiFlixView and navigate to a Movie set.

<!-- clearart -->
                        <control type="image" id="1018">    
                    <left>1568</left>
                    <top>418</top>
                    <width>300</width>
                    <height>138</height>
                    <aspectratio align="right" aligny="bottom">keep</aspectratio>
                    <texture background="true">$VAR[value_logoandclearart]</texture>
                    <fadetime>250</fadetime>
                    <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(noartposterlistvideo)</visible>
                </control>

How do i resolve this?

[latts9923]

@MANswers

Hello sir! I'll take a look at the ISO files.

For your clearart, try changing the visible to this...

Code:

<visible>![Container.Content(sets) | ListItem.IsCollection]</visible>

Hey guys, need a bit of advice/direction. Now that KODI has hit beta 2, I was thinking on trying it out. Is there anything I need to keep in mind going from 32-bit to x64? Will the 32-bit be removed when I upgrade, or will have 2 versions of KODI installed? Also will the skin restore option put my Krypton settings and such back (moving from Krypton mod to Leia mod)? I assume userdata folder is still accessible the same way, but if I can avoid setting up from scratch, I would like to do so. Any guidance and suggestions you all have would be appreciated!

I am not an English speaker, so please look over my writing/spelling:

@Wanilton 
@MarcosQui
@emiralles 
Please forgive me if I forgot someone else

@vbat99  Also very thanks, without your work, much of it would not be possible.

I have no rights to anything, the following is pure hobby and I do not have much idea of .xml.
Looked at the Skin's Main View the "ViewRightList.xml" and adjusted some things from the user perspective.
Maybe there are some things as an excitement, or else it understanding as feedback, or simply ignores it, it is not a feature request or the like.
(The themes run with a script and not with the banned addon, in case of doubt the video will later be in youtube muted.)

2 minutes Showcase:
https://youtu.be/l2GcnusoTIs (yt not monetized & not listed, cc 2 their owners)

Short Summary:
1. Optional added on top left Imdb250 Text+Icon
The icon background was changed from 100% trancparency to 50% black. More eyecandy for white fanarts.
Top 250 is looking for the kodi sql data, not the skinhelper service, its showing immediatly and no internet connection is needed.
(An skinhelper fallback could be added, or choosable from user cause data is changing very fast)

2. Optional added an "budget indicator" it's running only over skinhelper. I like expensive eyecandy AAA+ Action Blockbusters.
Only in 100 000 000 dollar steps (>100 mio, >200 mio, >300 mio)
If it is also an Imdb250 movie, there is a right placing animation.
I wanted to create a nice Icon for that but i gave up cause no skill in png transparency photoshopping.

2. Tagline: Made the ladds modded tagline half the size, only 1 line and center it to the movie title.
If Awards are activated (cause of lack of space) the tagline is moving to a better centered place.
I don't get it made to scrolling the tagline text horizontanly instead of vertically. I shorted a lot in the .nfo's.

3. Academy Awards - Oscars: I used the "year.png" graphics as the oscar academy awards to visualisation. I know they are big, but they are fitting very right to total amout of ever won oscars (11)
Before i knowed that i made Award and Nominated for 15 Awards in code^^. It's converting the skinhelper Awards text to the graphics. If "won" the award is full shown, if only "nominated" awards are 50% transparency. Of course only working with internet or chache. If Show Movie Cases is activated, the Awards and the tagline moving to a better centered position.

I'm currently doing the same thing for the Golden Globes, it's not often in the OMDB API data, but I found good graphics for it.

4. I paste and copied the latts kodiflix cases in the viewsrightlist. Also optional choosable and the other cases also choosable. There are currently problems with the mirroring reflection with case & poster, the poster is overlapping the case in the relfection.

5. KeyArt: I played a lot around in the yt and hope you understood the concept. Keyart is a for some a new artwork type supported by kodi python/sql, fanart.tv and artworkbeef. It's simply poster without any text.
Optionally, you can also show the logo above the keyart. It looks more like a case cover, and so also all case art looking a bit "standardized".
___
The artwork type "poster" i use only with original full texted posters cause of immersity. But when Cases activated, that does not make much sence.
The artwork type is called "poster" and not "(photoshopped) case cover Art all around to find.
@Karellen  and @TeamKodi
I wish there was an additional artwork type like "postercover" or just "cover" for kodi python & sql.
I know it would not make much sense for the scrapers, but with the media managers you could do that manually. The purpose would be to differentiate more authentically between a poster and a case view.
____

5. I have also greatly increased the Cleararts, and added a fourth "current container" indicator in the general status display from top left to middle. Handy with playlists and tags.
____
Everything above is purely optional and you can also turn it off and use it original.

I also thought about the "extended ratings" of the dialogvideoinfo.xml to display on RightList. But the chances are very bad. I think that's true if only with SkinHelper, but the showing up delay I do not want to have in the view.

Thanks for reading, Thanks guys, I'm a big fan of you.
