I wonder is there a way to make all thumbnails smaller, and get more of them showing before one needs to scroll ?
Why only 4-5 huge ones in a line, make them smaller by 30-50% and get 8 or more.

Thank you

I wonder is there a way to make all thumbnails smaller,
is in View_54_InfoWall.xml
but the gap remains

 
xml:
<control type="image">
     <left>15</left>
     <top>0</top>
     <width>210</width>
     <height>320</height>
 <texture background="true">$INFO[ListItem.Art(poster)]</texture>
     <aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>
     <!---<bordertexture border="20">overlays/dvd case.png</bordertexture>
     <bordersize>20</bordersize>-->
    </control>

so you can add items to menu and use the on off in settings
a custom look like this and would just need a play list saved by user
home.xml
xml:
<item>
        <label>custom1</label>
        <onclick>ActivateWindow(10025,&quot;special://profile/playlists/video/movies50.xsp&quot;,return)</onclick>
       <property name="menu_id">$NUMBER[5000]</property>
        <thumb>icons/sidemenu/blu-ray.png</thumb>
       <property name="id">movies</property>
       <visible>!Skin.HasSetting(HomeMenuNocustomButton)</visible>
      </item>
SkinSettings.xml

Cool Thread,

Can i divide all entries from favorites.xml (about 50 in my case) into about 4-5 main blocks:
radio, sport, media libraries, talk etc.
These folders should then be shown in the menu item Favorites.

I can't imagine that favourites.xml doesn't allow the integration of entries like -folder-?
That would be a bit copy/paste in Notepad++, but it could be done quite fast.

Someone must have had this idea before, otherwise the plugins like Super Favourites, Simple Favourites and co. wouldn't have been created.
Unfortunately all fav addons have problems with plugin streams since Kodi 18.

Hi guys. I have completely modified this skin to look like sky q. Sky q is a uk based tv provider.

One of the features on sky q is the tv guide on the main home screen where the widgets would be.

Is there a way of achieving this by putting the PVR TV guide as a widget or placing the TV Guide window as a visible item on the home screen.

Of course it needs to function fully as well.

Any help kindly appreciated. Thanks

Hmmmm maybe I can help with that , I was involved in a similar 'Q' mod a while ago , nearest  we got with live tv section was mini live channel window on home screen if I remember correctly. On a personal note, I would love to try your mod and maybe I could spend some time trying to achieve what your asking for ? 
PM me please if you like.
