Select another style for the volume indicator, it's in the skin settings --> Playback & OSD --> Volume Display/Change Indicator Style

Since the last updates, for unknown reason, the view modes in some kodi windows (Kodi libraries / Addons etc) are changing suddenly to "Banner List" (Previously it was changing to "Big List 2" when it was happened)
Also in Live TV, sometimes it is changing to "Simple List (PVR)" instead of what I set.
(Force View is off)
I don't know how to reproduce it or what is the scenario that cause this.
- What could be the reason?
- Can you write to the log (Or at least in debug mode) when a view mode is changing and who request it? So maybe I can find the reason.
If forced views is off, this is out of control of the skin. Most probably there's some addon doing some stuff in the background causing this issue.
There is no way to tell (or write to log) what is doing that. Just start with a fresh Kodi setup and start adding your stuff one-by-one untill it starts happening again.

Why there isn't a separation between them (Like there is for example between Movies and TV Shows Library regarding this setting)
That setting is global for the entire video library. It's not skin controlled so if you'd like to see it changed, submit a PR to Kodi or kindly ask it as a feature request on the general topics.

OK, will do but I'll warn upfront that it looks a bit cluttered. Available in next beta.

For skin helper provided widgets this is builtin already. It will auto refresh when needed, e.g. when content was changed.

Because it has to process the listing every time. Caching is very hard because there's no way to tell if the content was changed.
Maybe I'll come up with a simple way to overcome that.

No, tried that but it resulted in very unreliable behavior so I took it out again.
(2017-01-28, 17:06)burekas Wrote: 8) Regarding the "unwatched indicators", why in some addons they are shown also on menu items that are not Movies/Seasons/Episodes?
In that case the addon is sloppy and forgot to set the content type to "files". In many of these cases the addon dev sets the content type to e.g. movies so the skin "thinks" it's looking at movies content.
(2017-01-28, 17:06)burekas Wrote: 9) Regarding the Shortcuts Editor: There is a bug with the "disable shortcut" option with menu items and submenu items:
It doesn't show the actually state for each item separately when moving over each one. For example, changing to item1 (or submenuitem1) and then moving to item2 (or submenuitem2) and changing it again. I actually don't know if subitem1 is disable or enable.
Will be fixed in next beta
(2017-01-28, 17:06)burekas Wrote: 10) Regarding the list view modes, when doing right click on an item for opening the context menu and go over the items there the focused item is also change in the window according to the mouse cursor, so sometimes it takes another item instead of the one you right-click on it for a context-menu item operation. Can you disable/lock the movement in the window behind when the mouse cursor is go over the context menu items (for all the view modes)?
If the contentmenu is opened, the window underneath is already locked for input so what you describe should not happen. Also be aware that Kodi isn't built to be controlled by a mouse so there will always be glitches trying to work around that.

When I add an internal addon item to the favorites, it shows black background when I go over it, instead of the addon fanart.
(While when I add the addon itself to the favorites it does show its fanart as background)
Can you fix it so it will take the addon's fanart that it belongs to (Preferred option), or set it by the global background setting?
I will try that but I'm not so sure if that is possible. If I manage to find a workaround, it will be available in next beta.
