Let's hope so because I really do not have an explanaition why it's failing on the OSD and not in the library.
If the issue persists with your fresh setup maybe we can do some more debug hunting.

Some additional questions for my future setup: Is it possible that my problem is OS-dependent or something in combination with the Emby addon? And what does the skin and / or skin helper expect in the path or other datas? Perhaps I find something now ... Wink

That could be, altough I have extendely tested it on Windows (both Kodi 15 and 16) and openelec, both with and without emby setup.
But it might still be related to something I am overlooking. Just to be sure: You are using direct paths/play (not stream!) for your music playback in emby settings ?

Yes, it is like that by design; shown in both hour representation and the total minutes. The hour presentation is more family friendly.
If it really bothers you I can make it optional offcourse

Hi Marcel!
Yes, an option for this would be cool. Depending on which view you use, you have up to 3 entries of the runtime. this indeed bothers me, want to keep it simple Wink

thanks

I will add "Do not display hour representation of the duration" to skin settings --> general, available in next beta

My evaluation setup is an Emby server on my Windows 10 notebook with Kodi and additionally a Kodi instance on a Fire TV 1. Gen.

On the notebook Kodi is using direct paths with direct stream (with the already explained problems), on Fire TV I'm running Kodi with the addon mode and also without direct stream. On Fire TV I've always blank cdart ...

And so will be patience until I can try everything on my new hardware ...

Fixing the episode images in playlists makes the skin not respect the "Prefer TV Show thumb for episodes in widgets" setting. Also this http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=...pid2305344 is still an issue not sure if you had a chance to look at it

Hi Marcel
Will the next Release be after 16.1 has launched or is a date already planned, if so, when it will be? was using MQ for a while, but I like your titan very much.
I saw in some pics in the thread, that in the play mode, the file type (like FLAC, MP3) and Bitrate will be displayed in future ... that's the one missing for me.
Thanks for your work - I really should buy you a beer or 2.

2. When listening to music the cd disc is not centred to the cd poster (minor thing I know but it wrangles me every time [UNAMUSED FACE])

1. Will be fixed in next skin beta update
2. Hmmm, it's centered on my end. Remember that the skin expects music covers to be square. Can you post a screenshot of the issue please ?

So is the issue with misaligned cd disc artwork something unique to my setup?

v3.6.48

1. With Modern Big Vertical Homescreen Layout I do not get the full set of options for General>Configure Header for Homescreen, I have to change the layout to something else (ex: Simple Confluence Horizontal) to get the numerous options for the header display.

2. Also, I see a few duplicates: Logo + Clock, Clock + Weather, Logo + Clock + Weather.

3. Logo + Weather + Clock only displays the clock in MBV Homescreen. Although, now that I've tried a few other combinations - I see that this may all be on purpose (re: issue #1), that some header info may not be an option for MBV Homescreen. HOWEVER, Clock + Weather DOES work with MBV Homescreen but it's not an option in the settings menu.

can you have the thumbnail to the left show a preview of the image instead of the icon?
its nice to be able to see what the images are instead of having to cycle through a big list to find what you want.

the scroll bar for pvr view cannot be selected.

All issues will be fixed in next skin update

Hi marcelveldt

Just updated to 3.6.48, the first issue I posted about the first item in the submenu list not being in focus is not fixed.
The other two issues are fixed and working fine.

Edit* I'm using the setting "open/focus submenu at click on mainmenu item"

The only way for me to achieve this at the moment is to change all my skin shortcuts to "SetFocus(4444,0)"
Thanks!

I normally post a new stable version about once every 2 or 3 months. I think I will post a new stable version somewhere next week.

1) That would be true because with that layout the menu takes up all the space at the left side so no header options can be placed there...

2) Thanks for the catch, will be fixed in next update

3) Yes, you're right (invalid choices are hidden). I fixed the rightside clock+weather just now, available in next update.

The discart is placed exactly in the center of the cover image so I guess the issue lies in the diffuse image that cuts out the rounded circle from the cover, I'll take a nother look at it. I'm currently coding on my 13" laptop so it's a little hard to track down the "few pixels off" issues :-)
BTW: You did check it in latest beta, right ? Because I found a few pixels difference in the alignment which I fixed

Aha! That was the missing piece of the puzzle ;-)
