There is no md5 file so it is normal for it to say it doesn't exist Wink

I needed to remove skin.aeon.nox.silvo folder in order for the upgrade to LibreELEC-Generic.x86_64-7.95.3 to complete. Once the upgrade was finished I could update the skin via the repo.

I had to disable the start up intro for Kodi to fully start. The start up intro would play, but it would be stuck with Kodi logo. Is there a way to disable the start up logo by editing a file, I assume there is a true/false value in a file somewhere.

So here's my problem: what I'm trying to do is add a new window between 'TV Shows' from the main menu and the actual list of TV shows that contains a user-generated filter to list only my shows, my wife's shows, shows we both watch, or all shows. I've managed to do this by creating tags and tagging each show appropriately, and then sending 'TV Shows' from the default action to: ActivateWindow(Videos,"library://video/tvshows/tags.xml/",return)

Functionally this works as expected, but visually it's pretty ugly:

It looks like only two views are available for this page, List and Icons. What I'd like to do is customize icons for each tag and hide the 'New Rule...' option (which should result in four large panels roughly centred on the screen). I would also like to change the order if possible, and rename 'TV Shows' on this screen to 'All Shows'.

I admit that a big part of the problem is that I'm pretty ignorant about Kodi skinning, and I suspect the best solution would be to create an entirely new XML page to link the Home screen action to. Would anyone be able to help me out with this, or possibly have any suggestions?

I do something similar with music for the kids and myself. To do this I simply create separate folders on my server for "Kids Music" and "Adults Music". You can add both of these sources to the library, but they either use the library node editor or smart playlists to point to these separately. You can then create different menu items to point to them.

I can see how this would work with music, but for TV shows, I have a pretty automated system to sort these to my watch folders - tagging 200+ shows through the Kodi UI wasn't too huge of a deal, but actually changing the folder structure and automatic sort process for each show is something I'm trying to avoid.

I'm looking into Smart Playlists and that might be a solution, but I still want that interstitial menu screen between 'TV Shows' and the actual list (trying to avoid pull-down home screen submenus for this, as I'm using that real estate for other things). Wondering if it's possible to create a new menu that I just populate with some (not all) Smart Playlists and use that as my launching off point?

OK, well if you can get playlists to categorise as you'd like, then you should be able to use the Library node editor to do this I think. Not an expert, but I think you could create a "parent node", then sub-nodes under that which reference the playlist you created. You can then link the menu to the "parent node" and see this intermediate screen.
Sorry if I'm missing the mark - it's late here!

No problem! It gives me a starting point and it makes total sense.

Much appreciated!

I would create menu items for them. I have a similar set up for my shows and kids shows.
You could create a menu item for TV Shows which would link to all shows like normal. That is already there acutally.
Then menu item for Jack shows and one for Jill shows (you/wife). Link the menu item back to your playlist and use playlist for the widgets to show them above w/ artwork and all. I think its way more user friendly and especially wife friendly. More remote control friendly too w/ fan art and cover art.
Or you could:
Standar Menu item "TV Shows".
Then using list view for the widgets link the 1st widget to playlist jack and 2nd widget to playlist Jill.
You could also add sub menus that link back to the playlist as well.
I personally prefer a whole other menu item but this can get it all on one screen.
Good luck!

Request for anyone who has Photoshop or image manipulation experience in updating the skin logo. If possible please make dimensions 800 x 260 with the words Aeon Nox SiLVO. In any configuration you would like Wink

The only preferences are SiLVO in all caps besides the "i" and any font used be licensed for non-commercial open source projects.

I had a quick blast Mike, it's nothing special but simple. Use the silvo orange for the i to give a bit of color. Of course with it being a png it's better suited to darker backgrounds.

Hello,

In previous versions, I could enable or disable Home screen menu items, but I am not seeing that option in the latest version.

I an running Kodi Krypton on Windows 10.

I have searched Forums, but have found nothing relevant. Am I missing something?

Many thanks for the skin and any relevent reply.
