I'm a new kodi user, and this skin looks great!
I've been trying to install the original Bingie skin and the Bingie MOD skin, but, unfortunately, I have not been able to use either of them properly.
I've installed Kodi 18.7 on a Raspberry Pi 4 . I also added both skin's repositories from zip and was able to install both skins and choose either of them as the default skin.
However, after I chose either of the skins, all I can see is a full black screen with no UI elements at all. If I press the arrows, esc and backspace buttons on my keyboard I can hear the UI sounds, but nothing on the screen. 
The only way I can exit this black screen is by long pressing the backspace button, enter skins settings, and change the default skin back to Estuary.
I'm also seeing these two error messages on Kodi startup:
Code:
Skin Helper Service Error
and
Code:
Skin Service Background Error
.
Is there a known fix for this issue?
Is this a fresh install that has had no other skins installed apart from bingie and bingie mod?
Hi @HugoL , many thanks for replying 🙏
Other than Bingie and Bingie MOD, I also installed Estuary Leia Mod, Amber and AppTV skins, but I deleted Amber and AppTV.

Ok. In either bingie skin, reset menus to skin default by going

skin settings > configure shortcuts > restore menu items.

Also do the below option > Restore Default Widgets in Hubs.

And for good measure, go to

Back up and restore > Reset the skin to default settings.

Failing this, you can try a fresh Kodi and bingie install. Bingie 1.03 for the dependencies and then the bingie mod 1.09 skin.

Do I have to have bingie skin installed too? I download the repo and then installed bingie mod and it works fine, on my previous install I had bingie skin installed as well but i notice no difference yet on this fresh install with just the repo

It’s just to install the dependencies. You don’t actually need the skin

For anyone that was intrigued by that ExtendedInfoMod that hooks with TMDBHelper I mentioned earlier, after some research and A LOT of help I managed to make a TMDBHelper player for OpenInfo/Meta, so I can confirm episodes now work playing with TMDBHelper in ExtendedInfo, atleast for the sources i Tested, so u can now play an episode of Mandalorian through ExtendedInfoMod using TMDBHelper, and having the Disney+ addon.

Just read your thread on Reddit good work. Hopefully the Devs will implement the code. Post up the code as you did there so they can take a look.

First of all: thank you for your fantastic work.

There is a strange behaviour which I can't fix now: I open kodi, browsing the Home widget. When I go back to menu (left arrow) the "Live TV" menu is focused. Similarly, this happens with the other menu items too: when I get out of the widget, a different menu item is focused. Is there a setting to switch this fuction off and use a traditional menu logic: When I am in the Home widget and go back to menu (left arrow) the "Home" menu item should be focused?

Thank you.
Does the menu icon have a red line under it? If so that should be the widget you are in. Now if you have the menu open and scroll up or down you will still have the red icon on the menu you are in but the text will be highlighted on where you left off.
Yes, the menu icon has a red line, this is ok. The strange thing is, when I come out of a widget with the left arrow button, the menu opens and a different menu item is higlighted, not the one I was in. I would expect following behaviour: when I leave the Home widget, the menu opens and Home menu item is higlighted and the home icon marked with red line.  But it works differently, I posted screenshots about this yesterday.

In includesfooter.xml search for "new footer".  All the image and label controls are there all neatly labelled.  But if you still require help I suggest you switch back to the old footer instead.  There's over 30 controls in this footer, most will need adjusting depending on what you're trying to achieve and that's not something I'd be interested in assisting with right now.

I think it may be just a coincidence for the popcorn rating. I'll check it out in a bit.
Yeah. I'm quite curious how to get that popcorn rating.  Seem a better rating icon compare to the others? lol. Is possible to get that as part of the normal rating display?

Got it to show with a few videos using the UMS scraper.  Thank again.

You're not even getting the popcorn rating now as far as I can see. For the home and library footer, it's only a popcorn rating (RT Audience) if you've set that as your default rating with UMS and then rescraped your movies to put it in the default position.

Looks like your default rating is set to IMDB from your picture.  I can tell because the green % liked is the default rating position which is the same as the (decimalised) IMDB score, and now it's also your popcorn rating too. So you're actually displaying the IMDB rating 3 times in this picture.

Image

Avengers should be sitting around 90% for audience. You can quickly check the proper score by going to the Plots & Critics footer which will display the proper audience rating regardless of whether your RT audience scraped rating is in the default position (as long as you have this info scraped).

Regardless, it's a moot point, it doesn't matter now because a proper popcorn rating for home and library is on it's way from TMDB helper, along with Trakt & TMDB ratings for both TV and film.  I've "sort of" integrated TMDB Helper now.

I have a question how does your guys UpNext addon notification appear in your library? Bc the Fancy one, does not look that nice, it looks really clean in other skins like Auramod and Arctic Horizon, im not sure if i have something wrong on my end or its a visual bug but is it supposed to look like this? The simple one looks cleaner and I have set on that, but the only thing that I think it could use is add the image of the next episode. Fancy should do this on other skins but not in TitanBingieMod, again I might just have mine set up wrong would u guys mind sharing what yours looks like?

2. I have some shows or episodes where I assume there is no TVDB rating bc it shows 0.0, is it possible to make it so this rating doesnt show up on the footer if its a 0.0? I doubt any show, episode or movie has been ever fully rated a 0.0 anyway unless i am wrong, in which case maybe if there is no rating for the show/ep/movie available can it just not show up.

Are you going to make TMDB Helper a Dependency or a Supported addon? a replacement for skin helper or just an addition to the skin? Looking down the road to a not so far away future with Matrix right around the corner. Honestly I'm a lil confused by it all, will Python 2 addons still work going forward or does everything have to to be updated to Python 3 to work with kodi 19? As far as I know Marcelveld is long gone and I think Cartman made some fixes to Skin Helper but aside from him popping in to say hello a few weeks ago I don't think he's doing anything with it now. So unless someone steps up I think its on the chopping block. Do you guys @HugoL and @AchillesPunks have a plan going forward? I know you guys are fairly new to skinning, hard to tell by the user you guys are doing a phenomenal job just curious to what the future holds for us.
