Bart: what to say? Simple one word: PERFECT!

Now the only one remaining smallest tweak: add CPU Temp and that would be all what I was dreaming and thanks to you it has come true :-)

EDIT... Sorry Bart but I checked with few other movies and series and apparently that was my wrong suggestion to move "End time" to that position.
When the title of the movie is long then the result is not so nice:

so maybe solution would be to move Pause icon below current time elapsed and End time below total time of the movie as presented above on screenshot?
@rafikW , I made some changes to positioning which I think cover all scenarios, and this is what I came up with:

As you can see, with these changes the OSD is shown without interference as well. What do you think?

In terms of the CPU temperature, it did not really make much sense to me to display it next to the date, so instead I decided to show it below the date. In order for it to show, you need to enable a new setting here:

The CPU temp will show below the date (or by itself if showing the clock and date are disabled). It is important to note that if Kodi reports the temp as "Not available", or you are on the home window, the clock and date are being displayed, and the menu item has a widget showing, then the CPU temp will not be shown.

Please test and let me know if this what you were looking for. Thanks.

Hi Bart,
Changes you made for "End time" positioning - you have found the best solution :-) and now it is as it should! Thanks.
Regarding CPU Temperature: I'm afraid it have to be one line and CPU added just after the date. Few years back I have modified Includes.xml and included CPU Temperature in separate section as you did but... then I was suffering micro stuttering on all videos and I spend enormous number of hours to find the root cause not even thinking that was due to that modification.
So if possible then kind of "if" statement should be implemented like:
if "show CPU Temperature is enabled" then:
<label>$INFO[System.Date] $INFO[System.CPUTemperature,,]</label>
else:
<label>$INFO[System.Date]</label>

@rafikW, thank you for that info! I will change the code to show the CPU temp alongside the date if the setting is enabled.

i don't know if its a bug in xonfluence but the media flag is ok for h264 or MPEG2 but didn't show up for vc-1 codec

i don't have a full use of all the possibilities that xonfluence offer but for my simple use xonfluence is now perfect (except the media flag for vc-1 Rofl

)

so a big thank you

@dkangel , Xonfluence does have a flag for VC-1, but is possible that the way the codec is reported to Kodi by your file(s) is not the spelling expected by Xonfluence. If the file reports to Kodi "wvc1" or "vc-1" as the codec, then the flag will be shown. Some videos report the codec as "vc1" (no dash), and in those cases Xonfluence will not show the flag.

I added a new flag named "vc1" without the dash. The changes are already on GitHub. Please test and let me know if the flag is showing now for you. Thanks.

Bart

Disregard the previous post as I am barely computer literate.
I have beeen using xonfluence for years on an android box and was delighted to see it updated to work on kodi ver19.
It was working perfectly until I updated it recently and I have noticed that the bluetooth remote has got very slugish ie clicking on a key sometimes there is a delay completing the operation.
I also notice that when playing videos the picture freezes momentarily before jumping forward.
As I said this has only happened since I upgraded. If the previous version was available I would downgrade to check or alternatively a fix is found

Hi Bart,
You have added a dot between date and CPU Temperature... OK, can it be there. Again: thanks a lot.
Unfortunately "aggressive" icons for HD, SD and 4K are back, so could you please correct?

@rafikW , yes, I added the dot, as, in my opinion, there needs to be some separation between the date and the CPU temp other than a space.

As for the icons, could you please send me again the textures.xbt file that you put together? I seem to have misplaced it. Thanks.

Hello,

does anyone know where the default background image (startup.jpg) is located in the file path?
I have searched all the paths but found nothing.

That sounds similar to the odd jumpy delays I've experienced on my 2nd Gen FireTV 4K. The odd thing is it seems to only do it when I make a major setting change or first start up and it eventually calms down again (Confluence doesn't do it at all, though). I have no idea the cause.
