Ok, I am losing my marbles, I thought I knew this, but no longer.  How do I change the red color on the home screen that underlines the home icon on the left vertical menu?  This skin is nearly perfect, but the color red is not my thing.

It seems to me I used to edit the colors xml file.  Now has no effect?!

Thanks in advance anyone who can help...

There is no way to change the color. We are keeping the colors to match Netflix.

As in it's now taken away?  I have indeed changed it in the past.

Yes I think I removed it a little over a year ago.

To be clear, this was not a "newb" question of what setting to change, I actually dug into the core files to make the change, in the last version (was still working), because the skin is by far the best thing going and I won't use anything else.  I have it on every box I own.  But red for me is eye cancer, no offense to anyone, just a preference.  Any hint of what file(s) control that one single line of red?  I have everything else looking splendid because of the great work done by you, and I did look for a donate button, but do not see one.

If not, thanks anyway.  I'll still use it, but my OCD will fixate on that one red line.

Would you be fixing the TV Shows not getting added to the list sir? Also the "My List" page shows blank for me also even with movies on it that show up fine under 'My List' in the Home section...not sure if this is a bug too in Matrix

It's inside the Includesbingie.xml and about halfway down. I'm at work so I can't tell you what line.

Not sure what you mean about the TV shows not getting added.
The mylist needs to be fixed by Angelinas. He does all the backend coding.

Thanks, that did it.  Great work on the best skin out there, seriously.

Unfortunately it does not work in the matrix. The problem is with the skin helper service/widgets. @Angelinas needs to fix this.

Hey man really appreciate you replying. I thought I was going crazy for a bit...lol.

Also are you experiencing any sort of lag on your end? I only have 21 widgets and it's laggy a bit...

The lag really depends on your system it runs on. This is a very heavy skin. You can try to disable views you do not use.

Is it common for it to lag on the Shield TV Pro 1st gen? Is there a reason this lags, but something like Netflix (which this is based on) doesn't? Do they handle serving it differently or have lower overhead than Kodi + this skin?

I'm sure they are doing it differently to make it much faster. They have a company of smart programmers that can specialize on things like being fast. Kodi and it's default skin are smooth and fast, but if there default was Titan Bingie Mod I'm sure they could make it just like Netflix.

The reason it's slower for some people is because of skin helper and widgets.

I will post some screenshots later today when I get the chance. Thanks. By fresh install I was meaning I totally removed kodi and it's files and reinstalled using the leia zip on page 1. My previous install was using the older zip file from a while back. Everything else is working great i.e ratings artwork etc it's literally just the context menu and the home widgets issue. I'm on nvidia shield.

These are what I was referring to. The ratings sit behind the widgets tiles and my context menu is just blank. Thanks again

You can't combine layouts just like that.
You can combine poster and poster details, landscape and landscape details. And I think you can put any layouts like last widget. The problem is that all layouts are different sizes. So they move up and then the ratings go behind the widget.
It's very strange for menu. I don't have this problem. I don't know why everything is empty. No one has complained about this so far. Try reinstalling the skin.

Hey,
I am looking for the option to decide on a per widget base what layout to use.
All I can find is the global setting for all widgets to use a specific layout.
I'm on the Matrix version of this skin, has that feature been dropped for Matrix or am I just not seeing it?

Makes sense. Appreciate it. Might I inquire what device you're using it on? Perhaps its a speed issue with the Matrix port? I might test on my 10900K Kodi soon

Running Intel i9 processor, Nvidia 3090 windows pc, and a Intel i7 processor, Nvidia 2010, windows laptop.

I have no speed issues at all.

People won't openly admit it here, But I think the difference in experience here, is that when Bingie Mod feeds on local content, or plex, or emby, it is blazing fast. But those experiencing slow loading, is probably users using Addons that need to fetch lists and media info every single time from online sources.

So all I have is 20 widgets and purely local content. I have lag issues then again im on a shield tv. It could just be devicd like he said. Only addons i got are skin helper and fanart ones.
