I have ended up turning off the actress info in the rightlist view I think its too messy having the actress and characterart on the same screen.
I like your way of doing it, if you had the Actress Info tab/Button and it 2 things:
1. Replaced the discart with the actress image as you have shown,
2. When you select Actress info, the area where the Plot normally is or as in your video the Director and writer Information, you could have information on that actress, so as an example Haley Atwell, the picture would be where the DVD is, and text from IMDB:
I didn't replaced anything, i just added a toggle button and a visible condition when something is or is not onfucus.
The idea is nice but Kodi provides no InfoLabels for any kind of actress bio. Actress bio is available over TMDB API but there is no use for Kodi and Skins. That's the reason why Extended Info Script exist. There you can view actress bio in Kodi.
Sure i could implement the addon in Extended Info Script but i will never do cause i only want to modify Skins and not sub-addons, and i also hate Extended Info Script cause it's buggy on my side and outdated legacy.
But there are 2 new projects wich can replace Extended Info Script and all can be done Skin internal ->
When combining @
jurialmunkey plugin.video.themoviedb.helper and @
sualfred script.embuary.helper it will be possible for skinners to create custom actor bio's with skin internal methods.
Then also the actress addon can be implemented there.
But like Extended Info Script it would still all
fetched real time online and also in a
seperate window. It's not meant for show direct in dialogvideoinfo window.
