The 3 games Flix views work with the original advance launcher. I tried to install and setup ael but just couldn't see how to add anything? Was easy in al but all I never got a screen or anything to actually add Roms?

If I can get all working then i'll see why the gamesflix views aren'the working or other views but I think the coding is looking for advance launcher so i'll need to do some mods for ael once I can test changes.

Hi Mike,

just wanted to know if you had some time to look at it?

Cheers

Hi.

I've opened up the 3 games view to AEL but after getting AEL to scrap something I get next to nothing in the views, I've tried changing settings to how AEL scrapes but when I scraped another emulator it looked like it was going to take 3+ days to scrape the game

I'll try a bit more and probably push the AEL changes around Weds so you can try yourself but it seems AEL isn't scraping games like AL did? and as suck Kodi has no populated properties so any of the games? or I'm getting something wrong with the emulator config?

Mike.

Hello,
i have a question about the audio soundtrack view.

For Example: In my database are series with 2 soundtrack (German 2.0 channel and English 5.1)
In the low list view i see 5.1 Channel logo but in the pause menu, i see the 2.0 logo

Hi Slipass,

I just use the properties:

ListItem.AudioChannels Shows the number of audio channels of the currently selected video (possible values: 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10) in views
VideoPlayer.AudioChannels Shows the number of audio channels of the currently playing video (possible values: see ListItem.AudioChannels) in pause screen.

I haven't been able to reproduce it yet, but still trying.

Mike.

This question may have already been asked and if it has I apologize I did a couple searches with no avail. My question is.... with aeon mq I can change the movie case colors and flag type for each typesl...weather it be bluray dvd set 3d etc... is the a way to do that with this skin.... or is it a location where I can change a .png out for on I prefer just by renaming a pic or 2?

This is an amazing skin and the more I play with it the more I am finding yall have done some killer mods and coding I love it... thanks

Hi,

We don't use that type of case solution, we actually have multiple png images i.e. on for each resolution etc. We have multiple folders holding the various images for the different type of cases available and then the alternative cases used in some other views.

Maybe something interesting. I have installed the latest nightly Krypton and want to use the Krypton branch of Madnox. As i know a lot of missing textures and maybe some other issues. So i switched to the standard skin Estuary.
Something interesting happened. In Estuary i have missing textures too. I'm not able to switch back to Madnox because the settings texture and something more is missing.

I did a complete reboot of my windows machine and start Kodi 17 again. But surprise i get Estuary right from the start but with missing textures from the beginning.

It seems Kodi 17 have a big bug and it gets worst.

Hi,

Thanks for that Andy, I would have expected Estuary or any other skin to lose textures etc. once Madnox has been used as from what I've been told it's to do with number of properties and and I guess we use so many we break the running instance of kodi.

I am surprised about Estuary still being broken after a reboot though.

Yes, it's a major bug in V17 but from what I can see nothing is going to be done about it?

I've had a quick look on the github master branch to refresh my memory and the Gamesflix views were built with Advanced Launcher in mind and so most of the visibility conditions are

Code:

SubString(Container.FolderPath,plugin.program.advanced.launcher)

which means they wont be visible in AEL.

I don't know enough about AEL and whether it stores fan art and logos to the Kodi database like AL does/did and so some of the infolabels may or may not still work.

@Mike_Doc I've also noticed that you have the older revision of the skin files which required users to put files in specific folders which I changed to infolabels in a later revision about a year ago. The revised files also allow for video trailers to be used instead of fan art. The files are still on my dropbox to be pulled down but if you want to wait I'll see if I can get some free time to code the views for AEL and Krypton.

Edit: Link to Dropbox in Post 3

Hi UsefulG,

I exteneded all the conditions to include the path for AEL and the views work but no props/infolabels. Think i got all conditions but will check again.

I'll check your latest versions, thanks fors the heads up.

Sounds great, going to try it out today.

thank you so much for taking a look at the viewtypes regarding AEL.
Really looking forward to it.
I'll happily try everything you upload to github.

Thanks for the reply... and I figured out my issue was which the .nfo file the <fileinfo> was missing so it pulled the wrong case all is well and working once again yall have knocked it out the park...

Hi Mike, Kodi 17 Beta 2 was released.
I hope that the problem with the texture/madnox skin is fixed....

Kodi alone will not fix the issue,

the skin varibles are a big part of the Problem...

Ok, I thought it was still a bug in Kodi Beta one existed, caused the problems with the skin and when this is not resolved, Mike wanted nothing more to try on skin.

Am seeing this same behaviour happening with much more regularity recently, for what reason I no idea. Used to happen maybe 3-4 times a week, but currently seeing this happen maybe 10-15 times daily. Think I sighted a post some time ago that users can somehow reload the skin, without having to re-boot Kodi each time this occurs. Grateful if somebody could confirm this and if it's possible for me to add a custom reload button for this action somewhere on the home menu, rather than having to re-boot each time.
Cheers

in the context menu "c" is a reload option in almost every view

lol - 4 Years of using the various Nox skins and can't believe I've never even noticed that there before.....Feeling quite foolish now
