I added a submenu as a widget and added thumbnail images to each item. I dont want the name of the item to be displayed on top of the thumbnail image. I tried all the different settings but I cant remove the name from top of it.
I even tried creating widget using a custom action Playmedia("...") but the widget will still be blank after clicking ok.
Also is there a way to re-arrange the widgets?
Please help.
1) Look for the setting to configure the tags on the widgets. You can either disable them globally or set them at a per-widget level.
2) To rearrange the items in your submenu widgets you should edit the submenu and rearrange the items.
To rearrange the widgets itself, no sorry, you will have to re-add your widgets for that.

That is strange... Kodi switched to 1-10 rating scale since Kodi Krypton. Maybe this is an issue when you migrated from Kodi 16 to Kodi 17 ?

This is on 2 systems yet on my Firestick system it does show this information, is there a setting somewhere that needs to be enabled or has this feature gone now please?
As long as you enabled the textbased mediaflags that info should show up.
If not, take a look at your kodi log, maybe some errors are reported there ?
If you open the information dialog, is the info still present there ?

Is there something I am missing? I have all of the the Skin Help & Shortcut addons enabled. Also, the option for Default just hangs getting the directory. Thanks!
Widgets --> Add --> Default widgets --> Skin helper widgets --> Movies --> random movies
If the default widgets entry hangs it means something went completely wrong so you should have a look at the kodi logfile if any issues are reported there.

The banner widget is meant to display... banners. If no banners exist it tries to simulate the banner by showing a large text label on top of the fanart image. What I can do is disable that label if there is also no fanart image, for example in your scenario where you assigned a custom thumbnail.

Quick question from a Newbee. In Estuary there is button for YouTube Trailers for TV Recordings and when selecting a Show out of the Programme Guide. Will you implement this also in Titan Skin? If yes, can you already indicate by when you will implent this?
I am using the Titan Skin for quite some time and I love it. Great Skin!! Thank a lot!

Hi all, I love this skin! Was wondering if I could stop the widgets reloading after I have watched something and then go back into the main menu. Thanks in advance

Kodi was up and running. Now on Kodi 17.1 using the 3.7.59 Beta skin, every time I play a movie,
the widgets refresh again. I don't mind waiting on the Kodi initials load for the widgets to load, but
if they refresh every time I play a movie it becomes unusable for me. I have about 8 widget rows.
Widgets refresh if the database content was changed. For example when you played a movie...
It's actually a good thing because that way your widgets will always be accurate. The refresh should take no more than just a few seconds.
Can you tell me which widgets you have in your set-up that are now refreshing all at once ?

from an addon and then get a message it has been done and to press "OK". the ok should be displayed
in red due to my color scheme but it is darkened out. If I hit my Firetv back button I can return to where
I was was. I also see a spinning wheel when I get the darkened out "OK" button. I have seen this
behavior with any addon that has an "OK" button in it's dialogue.
I'm sory but I have no clue what you mean. Maybe you can make a screenshot of the issue for me to beter understand what's going on ?

The Slim OSD does not scale tall poster art properly sometimes. Most of the time it scales to the none slim one ( default one )
Is there a way to disable the star ratings in the bottom right on the screen on the footer bar?
Using the latest beta at the time of this.

I have fixed a few issues regarding extrafanart today, this should also fix the issue you're describing altough I wasn't really able to reproduce it on a fast machine. Please test with the next beta version of the skin which will be provided later this weekend.

Sounds like Kodi isn't shut down properly so the settings aren't written to the settings files.
This is a more generic issue with your setup, not specific to this skin.
Did you install some "force kodi shutdown" addon or something like that ?
