Alright i managed to work it out. I used trakt watchlist action and it works like a charm. Thanks for help

Great, I was just going to mention that I don't believe Fuse comes with any Favorites nodes.  So, you would need to make your own or ask jurialmunkey to add some.

Also i see that your videos has media tag 4K etc. Mine show only "INFO" for anything. Is this somekind of function that can be enabled in Skin settings also ?

To tell you the truth I'm not sure where that's coming from.  If yours isn't showing that tag then maybe it's tmm, or my Emby addon, but I don't recall doing anything to make it do that.

No there's no setting.

Resolution is based off of whatever is in ListItem.VideoResolution info tag. If this is a local file then that will be automatically retrieved when scraped to the library by Kodi reading the file metadata. If it is a plugin, it requires the plugin to set the stream details. It is also possible for it to be set automatically by Kodi to a plugin path after playback if the plugin correctly uses setresolvedurl callback method.

Less stutter when showing OSD in v0.4.77. Love it!

This is great to hear!

Now that I'm fairly confident I know what the cause is, hopefully I can address this further in future updates -- it's going to take some code refactoring, so it'll be something I'll slowly work towards rather than an all in one go type of thing but I think it should be possible to reduce it significantly if the cause is what it seems to be.

What are people generally using to scrape proper landscape artwork for this skin? just tmdb / universal movie scraper inside kodi? anyone else having trouble with scraping landscape artwork for a large number of movies when using an external media manager? It's not just my obscure foreign films I'm having trouble with, and it's really important to get this artwork right for this skin to look its best

also, if I am using an external media manager, what is the best way to update the artwork in kodi? do I have to remove and re-add the source to get newly-added artwork to update in this skin? a simple update library doesn't do the trick

I use UMS without too much trouble but also my library is fairly settled at the moment in terms of my artwork and any custom nfo files I need for the trickier films to match. I haven't really done a large scale refresh for a long time (because it's painful and I try not to!) -- so I'm really only ever adding a couple of new items at a time now.

At one stage I'm pretty sure I used Artwork Beef/Dump or whatever it is called now to setup all my artwork properly and I have tried to avoid messing with it too much now that I have it how I like.

In terms of updating artwork, you can do a refresh for a single item from the info dialog
Find movie/tvshow > Open info screen > Go to artwork icon at bottom and click > Choose refresh from side bar

That will refresh the item and give you an option to pull in the new details from the folder.

Yeah I used artwork beef previously on kodi, didn't backup the library and started from scratch and now I'm pretty sure AB is deprecated with current versions of kodi/LE. I just got a NAS setup finally and wanted to get my library all clean and organized and started exploring media managers. TinyMediaManager works pretty well, but there's some issues specifically with respect to the landscape art. It often, but not always, swaps fanart with landscape art that already has the clearlogo on it. This wouldn't be a huge problem if it were consistent about it all the time, but it's not. MediaElch helps find some missing art but it's terrible having to switch back and forth, and TMM is overall way better than MediaElch. I'm 95% there and just manually correcting missing landscape art or swapped fanart vs landscape. Although I do have to say, I've had zero problems with TMM scraping metadata etc, and regular poster art and it was a super smooth process for 95% of ~10TB movies and TV. My complaints are regarding the landscape stuff only, which I've never really had a need for until using this skin. Part of the problem is not the scraping side, but on the source side - a rather surprising lack of landscape art and fanart for some TV shows and films I'd thought would definitely have landscape and/or fanart available. 

Anyway, thank you very much for the continued support. The refresh trick works perfectly, and the skin is looking awesome now.

Have you entered all of your API into TMM and make sure to select the artwork needed. Make sure API are entered though.

@jurialmunkey What would be the path to show a combined list of my Library Movie/TV Shows to use as a Global Spotlight since Trakt is down at the moment and can't use my regular trending combined through tmdb/trakt. Thanks !

There's not a way to do it natively but you can create a SkinVariables filter to combine library movies titles and tvshows titles paths together then use that.

I have indeed entered my APIs into TMM, and configured the artwork selections. I am on the free version of TMM, so it's primarily TMDB and fanart.tv. TMM queries TMDB for what it calls fanart and I get a mix of actual fanart (arctic fuse skin fanart) and landscape art (arctic fuse landscape art, with clearlogo already superimposed as a part of the image). Sometimes the only fanart TMM finds already has clearlogo, which gave me double clearlogos when the landscape is missing. Sometimes the TMM 'thumb' is missing or switched with fanart (no clearlogo included). Anyway, I manually corrected all of the messed up ones and my library is all good now. I was just surprised how many times it happened.

One more question. On libreelec, I have to go to settings => LE settings to setup bluetooth connections. This is not listed under settings on the arctic fuse skin. I had to switch back to the default estuary skin to find the BLE config and connect BLE headset. I looked under addons, searched all addons, could not find the LE settings to open the bluetooth config panel in arctic fuse. Where is it hiding?

@jurialmunkey thanks for adding touch mode. It allows me to use poster viewtype which I profure on my galaxy device. When I brought this up on github I did not expect it would be added so quickly thanks.

Hey, just registered so please be gentle with me. I love AF it's an amazing skin! Really appreciate your work jurialmonkey.

I got only one problem with the skin. I use the Trakt addon, and when I finish watching a movie or a TV episode, its normal behaviour is to pop up the rating dialog, so I can submit my rating to Trakt. That is working for all the skins, except AF. I can't change the rating using the remote, and also can't submit it. Only the "Back" button is working which is leaving the dialog, and not submitting anything.

Is this a known problem? (I am using Raspberry Pi4 4GB + LibreElec 11.0.6 / Kodi v20.3)

Hi @jurialmunkey
Apologies if this is a stupid question!
Playing music: I have a 'fanart' image set up for the album I am playing. When I play the album the 'fanart' image shows as the background, which is fine. However, I've gone into information/picture settings and added 'fanart1', 'fanart2' etc. But when I play the album only 'fanart' is being shown, not fanart1, fanart2 etc. Is there any way of getting the other fanart images to show?
Also, is it possible for the skin to display discart, or is that not possible?
