You need to bring up the context menu for an item:

GOOD GRIEF - so easy! I am a big user of context menus in Windows and will now be sure to make use of them more in Kodi/Nox.

Thanks much martinconroy. Smile

I don't want anybody needing to scroll but I also do not want it to be annoying so time to get some opinions here.

Leave it the way it is, work on a re-design (which I am hesitant to do), or make the buttons smaller so more of them fit on screen without having to scroll?

Smaller Buttons:

I've never found it a problem myself but could understand people who are new to Kodi and Aeon Nox might not know it's there.

My personal opinion:
1) Scroll down: OK
2) Make buttons smaller like the screenshot you just posted: OK (yes it looks "crowded" but I don't mind because this is a setting menu, I see it like once a year).

3) The way it's now implemented on Krypton: OK (but I agree the option needs to be made explicit/intuitive to the user).

I'm not sure how option 3) plays for people who don't have a keyboard attached to their Kodi's, I have a remote with enough keys so I'm able to map the context menu, but some people may be using those new slick apple remote that have like one-key-to-rule-them-all Rofl

PS: is it possible to add an option to choose which menu will be automatically selected when kodi starts up? I think right now in Jarvis it shows the "most in the middle".

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 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!

I created new main menu items as well. Movies are in folders such as Movies (all movies), Mom Shared, Movies Mom, Movies Anim (kids). I then create smartplaylists to use as the menu source and background artwork. Easy, intuitive and quick. Plus visually appealing with the background artwork applicable to the menu item. I do the same for TV Shows as well.

(Actually, I have Mom Shared in a sub menu, but it would be easy to move to a main menu item.)

Any idea?

Thanks,
Not without a debug log (wiki)

I discovered a lot of things weren't working anymore (I changed from the zip install to the install through the windows store when installing Krypton maybe it's why). So, I decided to do a clean install and right now it seems everything works.

Thanks for the time you put into this skin.

I no this is irrelevant but for the love of god I can't find what I'm looking for in any of the forums on here! All I want to know is why my exodus deletes episodes after I've watched them when I have changed the settings to not erase them after I have watched them?! I'm using it on fire stick and it's so annoying as I'm trying to show my mum walking dead and there gone I have tried to keep changing the settings to unwatched or watched to get them back and nothing! Is there away to reset it without deleting everything? Sad

You need to read the forum rules about posting messages about banned addons. You won't get help here for it.
I can't for the life of me figure out why you would post that here KNOWING it has nothing to do with this skinHuh

I'm sorry, can you rephrase? I think you are missing words there.
Yea sorry auto correct. I ment is there a way to should the media info without having to press the I when paused?

It doesn't seem so. I just checked and I couldn't find a setting for that. I think that what you are looking for is a feature Mike added only to the Krypton version of the skin.

Greetings everyone,

As you know, prior to Krytpon the Addons menu was accessible via the System menu—but now it is gone. As a workaround, I now access the Addons menu via Videos main menu. Has this now become the popular method or is there a shortcut or context menu I can take advantage of?

Many thanks for your time!

I don't mind using the context menu because it make the main menu look cleaner, BUT I know that for a lot of people, the more they have to click, the more confusing and troublesome the interface is. I provide daily IT support in a company with several thousand employees and know that simpler is better. Thanks.

Hi all, I have some issues with widgets. If I setup the widget to "skin helper service widgets - episodes airing today" it shows episodes airing tomorrow as per screenshot.
Any idea how to fix it?
