@jurialmunkey I was wondering if you could also display the progress bar of my media play back when I press the enter key to bring up play back controls. Some times I like to see where I'm at in a movie with out bring up the info overlay up that covers 1/3 of the screen.

BTW This skin is still the best

Agreed, +1 for this. It would be great.

Is there an easy way to use the "DialogVideoInfo"(with metadata changes, of course) on a specific addon, namely advanced emulator launcher, like the skin rapier has? basically Is there a way to add a Information Window on an addon. I know the kodi doesn't have natively, but some skins have info windows on a program addon.

Best regards

I see that mouse support is not included, but the keyboard also doesn't seem to work. How am I supposed to control Kodi with this skin? I'm running Kodi on a Raspberry Pi and I seem to be stuck.

[jurialmunkey]

Keyboard works fine for me. Any issues with keyboard setup are related to your kodi core setup and are not a skin problem.

Also the mouse will work, it just isn't supported as some areas don't work properly as the skin is not really designed with mouse support in mind, but most things will still work with the mouse.

I would suggest support for duration script too, if possible.

You can use Kodi Remote mobile app (Android and iOS)

Hello,

is there a solution in DialogVideoInfo.XML, clicking on cast, clicking on an actor showing searchlist with movies/series, where these actor is playing in, instead of showing extendedinfo script?

list of cast:

        </control> 


Hope, anyone can help me to find a solution

Well I also have a question about the DialogVideoInfo.
I'm trying to use the overlay feature ("Furniture_OverlayInfo") on an addon with some of DialogVideoInfo assets (no buttons, just plain text and images). The problem is that the poster doesn't show.


I already found why. its because of the

PHP Code:

<itemlayout height="425" width="220">

code

</itemlayout> 


if I remove the "itemlayout" the poster appears but not correctly.
How can I solve this problem? how can I do the same with a different code?


here it is all the code of the group

Edit (jurialmunkey) -- Please use pastebin for large sections of code. Also please start a new thread if queries are not directly related to skin support. Keep the thread on topic. Thanks!

Best regards



EDIT
I'm using MediaInfo Assets now, and it's working with them, but I really want to know an why it is't working with the VideoInfo assets

Grouplists don't use <itemlayout> only lists and fixedlist and panel.

I suggest reading the skinning manual - http://kodi.wiki/view/Skinning_Manual

Also, please try to avoid posting large chunks of code as quotes (use pastebin or something similar) and huge images as it makes the thread difficult to read. And for stuff like this you really should start a new thread rather than post in here. This thread is about support for the skin, not help with modifications. Thanks.

I would suggest support for duration script too, if possible.

Check latest git. I've made a modification to show seekbar with osd controls.

Duration script is a no go as it doesn't work inside lists, only outside leading to inconsistencies in formating (e.g. 124 mins in a list, 2h4m in info). Also movie runtimes are typically presented in mins rather on the back of dvd covers etc.
There is a work around using a large number of variables (basically a condition for every single possible duration to convert to the other format), but I'm not sure if I'm keen on the route considering Kodi 18 is going to have duration label formating options natively added.

Hi Guys

First time here on Kodi love this place (much better than **cough**) Anyway i have installed Zephyr skin and love it!

When i try and add custom menus nothing is displayed they are just empty.

1) added a source eg kids tv and kids movies
2) Go into settings and add menu and for the action i select video library => sources => Kids Movie (video source) => create a menu item to here => selected Movies
3) if i then go to the menu its empty

But the thing is if i browse direct to the folder itself i can see all the movies in there.

What am i doing wrong been looking at it all day

[albe]

Morning,
First off, absolutely love the skin, really sweet to setup and use...
My only gripe is with Kiosk mode and auto updates.
I understand that Kiosk mode is designed to lock things down so your mum can't mess with settings, change view mode (by far the best reason for enabling Kiosk mode), install add-ons, configure installed add-ons, etc.
But, pre-installed add-ons can't auto update.
On Kodi 17 releases, with Kiosk mode enabled, recent add-on updates weren't applied and sat waiting in Settings > Add-ons > Available updates
So for all the good that enabling Kiosk mode does by locking things down to reduce potential maintenance due to fiddling, installed add-ons not receiving auto updates means that ongoing maintenance is still required.
I don't know if the skin could auto install available updates for pre-installed add-ons at Kodi launch whilst in Kiosk mode?
Peace.

Did you also scraped the source? So when you have added the source, make sure it's tagged as movie content and let it scrape.

I cant get extrafanart to work, is there a new setting I need to change?
