I have a question regarding animated artwork. If I enable the animated artwork with the Skin.SetBool(SkinHelper.EnableAnimatedPosters) and if I have a condition to show animated posters it will show all the posters there are on the databae. is there a way to just show animated artwork when the user downloads it, instead of download all automatically?

Not in the picture below, but can you add a decimal point to tvdb? It displays 9 instead of 9.0

TVDB or TMDB ?

TVDB

You can make a variable like this. It's what i'm using. If someday marcelveldt adds the decimal point, it still works
PHP Code:
<variable name="tvdbRate">
        <
value condition="!String.Contains(Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.Rating.TVDB),.)">$INFO[Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.Rating.TVDB)].0</value>
        <
value>$INFO[Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.Rating.TVDB)]</value>
    </
variable

It is built to never block kodi to quit. If this issue occurs on your machine, there must be something going on.
My best guess here is that your skin is trying to re-load the widgets while Kodi is already exiting, causing kodi to wait untill the widgets are loaded.
If the widgets are properly implemented they should only refresh if needed (and not at kodi shutdown).

Try re-adding your widgets to your skin one by one untill you narrow down the widget causing issues.

Ok thanks for the tip. I'll do that and let you know how I get on.

So i got it sorted. I had to delete my favourites file. I've added back all my favourites manually and its closing in seconds.
My favourites widget also seems to be loading quicker too which is great.

Any idea why favourites saved previously would've been causing this issue?

It looks like the API (omdbapi) is no longer providing that info, maybe because of the recent issues with his server.
I assume it will be back soon. If not, I'll have to start looking for an alternative

omdb api have all info for rottentomatoes N/A, maybe is just service for rottentomatoes down for api.
Wait, dont remove code for this...maybe they will back.

Yep, indeed. Looks like OMDBAPI is no longer providing the Rotten Tomatoes details but that might also be a last hickup after the server issues he was having. Let's wait a few days how it evolves.

Because I was talking about the Skin Helper backup addon

It will only download it if you select one from the list. But yes, by default it will download the first item from the list.

Well, in fact the favourites widget had an issue (bug) which I solved yesterday.
In some occasions if a python script end up in an error (exception), that can in fact prevent Kodi from shutdown properly.
So, maybe the issue was somewhere in one of your favourites or it was caused by the bug I fixed in the favourites widget

Not sure if you checked the cost of a rottentomatoes API, but read 60K USD Sad

Sorry, my bad. New version 1.0.15 is now uploading to the repo

No worries. Will test as soon as I get the new version.
1.0.14 is still the latest version showing in the Brasil repo as of this morning.

Yes, I know. They emailed me that when I asked if we could have the reviews...
Anyway, no need to worry, the RT ratings will be back on OMDB, he's just restructuring it all a little
