Hi everyone,

The skin is amazing but i have a couple of questions,
Is it posable to add a audio mute button in the same row as volume up and down (i have tryed myself but it dit not work), how can i add a bleutooth menu (pair, connect and disconnect) and is it posible to show a radio logo or other fanart in the Logo area?

I am adjusting it for a media center (public room) so evrey thing must be done from the Carpc skin.
Ther was one message about the fanart but (maybe i missed it) i saw no solution.

Keep continu the good work, and i hope that anyone can help me.

Thank u,

Kind regarts Rowan707.

Hi  @Rowan707 ,

For mute button have to work , just copy one volume button modify action and position.
For bluetooth and radio logo depends on the system os you using. It is possible but complicated .

Hi everybody!

I want to build a solution in my car with this skin that includes a desktop mini PC (ZOTAC ZBOX-PI335) with hdmi display, usb touch, fm radio, physical volume control, more professional sound card, phone mirroring, and possibly navigation. You run PC win 10 and you do.
1. By the time I got to the kodi and carPC-Carbon skin I had added. I'd like to use the navigation s button to run a program, but I don't understand how to do it. There is a "navi.exe" in the kodi directory that should run this if I can. I want a solution to that.
2. I have a Chinese usb -s FM receiver. "Https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32914826153.html?spm=a2g0s.12269583.0.0.4ba3ccbdECpDBP"
This should work with the radio button.

Thanks!

Great work!

Please help. After changing the font to Arial, the home page main menu font became small. The rest are fine. How to adjust, please?

Hi, you have to edit includes.xml files - Label Buttons Home

Hi, you have to edit includes.xml files - Label Buttons Home

Actually just solved it. Fonts.xml was missing "font50_titled" and "font60_titled" for Arial.ttf, which are used in those. After adding everything is good. Thanks for your help, anyways.

Anybody tried disabling the splash?
I opted in for a into video via Settings menu, but the startup Kodi splash shows up and then the video is played.

I created advancedsettings.xml (below). Now when I open Kodi, the screen goes black for about the duration that the Kodi splash used to and then the video is played.

<advancedsettings version="1.0">
    <splash>false</splash>
</advancedsettings>

Any idea how to boot with video only and no delay?

Thank you idorel77, that has worked, now i want to connect a button to a python file on my desktop (Raspbian Buster - RPI4) with this i control the master audio, i have a separated pulsaudio for bluetooth audio reciving and want to mute all (kodi and bluetooth).
how can i add a python file to the volume buttons? or alsaaudio commands? (python3 file is already made)

The Radio is a minor priorety but i am working on the bluetooth by following a xml course to create the menu screen and write python scripts for the actions.

Hi,

you have to edit includes.xml lines from 770 and edit actions lines.

@ Idorel77
how can you add shortcut at the bottom ....?

Can you explain how?

In addition to that I can start the radio with an FM module TEA5767 v3

Ciao, sei riuscito a configurare il tea5767 v3? Ho un rpi4 e io non ci riesco, come hai fatto? Grazie

Hi love the look of this skin.  Have tried to install this through addon zip but Kodi (18.5) wont install.  Is there a repository I can do it direct with Kodi?

Hi thanks for the reply I managed to get it to install from zip ok in the end.  I'm not sure if you know if its possible to get duplicate screen outputs on raspberry pi 4 with Kodi? Struggling to find any information. Thanks  Rob
