On that way I will be able to change colors.
Yes, that would be an example of what I mean.

I have downloaded the xml file and used it to replace the xml file on my Kodi box. Restarted my Kodi box and it is still showing both 12 and 12A for any movie/tv show that has a rating of 12A. To be on safe side I also rebuilt/refreshed my library to see if that would help - unfortunately that hasn't helped. Another test I did was edit one of the movies that is rated 12A. I changed it to 12 and it only shows one icon (12). I then changed it back to 12A and it still shows both 12A and 12.
With the ratings does the IncludesMediaFlags.xml file also have to be updated as I remember a while ago that both IncludesMediaFlags.xml and IncludesBingie.xml contained info related to parental ratings.

@Angelinas Awesome work on the update guys! This skin is a work of art.
I'm still working on redoing my setup based on this new update. So I will post if I have any useful feedback to give. But for now, I just wanted to say thanks for the hard work!

Thank you for the update.
I dont want to recreate my configuration from scratch, can I update it over the current version or at least install from scratch and restore a saved config backup?
Thx

Here's a little feedback on the new update:
So many fantastic little improvements visually.
A little minor issue I discovered: If any of the default hubs (like "Play Something," New & Popular," "TV Shows," "Movies" or "My List" for example) are removed, the Restore menu items feature does not work to add them back. It allows you to click and select the item to restore--but nothing happens, and nothing is added back).
I couldn't really figure out how to use the "My List" or the new "Play Something" hubs. Maybe these just work for Library items only? There is no way to link these to addons?
Also, I know it's possible to manually edit the startup and remove the Netflix splashscreen. But I would love if there was a way to at least mute the audio. The splash screen itself doesn't bother me, but the startup sound can be pretty startling sometimes. A silent startup would be my personal preference. Anyway, I can do this on my own?
With this recent update, this skin is now very polished. It was great before, but now's it's really really solid. Good job guys!

Yes, it only works with the local library.
Of course you can. Edit videos (extras / media). Just turn off the sound in some video editor.

You also need to have at least one movie watched and one episode to be shown this widget.

The restore doesn't work for me. I will try with Kodi with just the skin alone installed and see. Maybe it's something else I added/changed that is preventing the restore from working--anyway it's not a big deal!
In terms of the startup splashscreen, I ended up following these instructions from @beatmasterrs that I found on the German forums here:
https://www.kodinerds.net/index.php/Thre...ktivieren/
That worked beautifully! But I'll check out your suggestion, if I wanted to add back some alternative video.
Really great work on this skin. Everything is so smooth and refined now!
