This skin has also on my RPi 4 / LE10 the Show Background Video flickering bug.

Here the solution...

Switch in settings/player/video the Direct To Plane to EGL. Or Disable booth DRM options above.

First of all great skin. One of the things preventing me from jumping to Matrix was that i couldn't imagine not having arctic zephyr which i absolutely loved. This version fits the bill. I just have a few questions. I have been going through the options trying to customzie it to my liking and i just cannot locate some options (im sure im just looking in the wrong places)
1. end time for movies/ tv shows - how can i make it display in the library view what time the movie will actually end if i start watching now?

The end time i only visible in some list views, e.g.:

3. Information for media displayed on the bottom - is there a way to make the icons smaller and display them on the right?

5. home screen icons view - is there a way to change the size of the cons to smaller, center align and remove the divider bars between icons?

Could you provide screenshots of what you mean? To be honest, I don't plan to change it, but if you have skinning skills, you can do it yourself

I have added a tmdbhelper fallback setting for auto playing trailers. If ListItem.Trailer is empty and tmdbhelper has found a trailer for the focused movie/tvshow, the found one will be played:

t content do you try to play? Please provide a full debug log, thanks.

Figured out how to create the debug log.   You can view it here

You can see I opened the .mkv file successfully first, then I opened it from the "Information" context page and it fails and crashes Kodi.  One thing to note, I am using the Kodinerds Maven latest version so that Dolby Vision will work.   I'm not sure if that is relevant to this or not.  Like I mentioned before, I don't have any issues with any other skins, just this one on this specific page.    Let me know if I can provide any more info.

Thank you. Could you please test this version here: https://github.com/beatmasterRS/skin.arc...atch-3.zip ?

It works! Thanks for the patch.  I am able to play shows from the Information context page now as expected.   I love this skin!

Thank you, for pointing this out! Will be merged into master

I tested the new master, it still does not allow each profile to have its own colours like you could previously

Previously? I have not made any changes to colorsettings

Version 1.1.56SP2 works fine, each user profile keeps their colour settings. 

I think but haven't confirmed that when I log into a profile and change the colours (e.g. logo, gradient, etc) and then log out, those changes are saves to the settings.xml file of the "AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\addon_data\skin.arctic.zephyr.mod" folder and not the "C:\Users\sandp\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\userdata\profiles\[user]\addon_data\skin.arctic.zephyr.mod"  folder.

I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

I think, this is all releated to the profile switch issue. I'll have to think about implementing an alternative startup animation, even though that wouldn't be right, since I still don't think it's a skin-specific issue, but an issue with kodi's profile handling. We will see...

tmdbhelper help to find a trailer but there is a bug.
when you select a item, the trailer found by tmdbhelper don't start :



the trailer start only when you select the next item :
(in this screnshoot "Expanse" is focus but it is the trailer of "the serpent")



EDIT : this behaviour is only with trailer found with tmdbhelper

Ah okay, thanks for pointing this out I thought this will work.. I couldt not test enough, cause all my scraped movies have trailers already... When the item gets focused, the tmdbhelper trailer prop is empty <onfocus>, due to loading delay... .

It would be nice to have an additional method to get trailers, but the tmdb scraper can now also scrape trailers for tvshows, so that's ok. Maybe i find a solution, we will see...

Thanks for testing

Thanks.  For what it's worth, I also think it's not your loading screen or animation.  What was different in 1.56SP2 that did work though?

[Nanomani]

the tmdb scraper can now also scrape trailers for tvshows, so that's ok.

FYI, in video dialog information for TV Shows the button trailer is never show.
for the movie this works well.

Reproduce :
- be sure to have a trailer for item TV show
- enable button "trailer" in settings video dialog information for TV Shows
- the button is never show

Thanks for the new trailer feature and also finally we have jumbar in flix view !!

Thanks for pointing this out A visible condition is wrong, will be fixed, when i am back from work

[Nanomani]

@beatmasterrs an other one where the condition must be adjusted if possible

If you open video information dialog from item widget movie from home and then the settings :
The settings "Movies by this director" or "Collection" is disable : 



If you open main menu "Movies" and open video information dialog from item movie and then the settings :
The settings "Movies by this director" or "Collection" is enable : 



the actual condition in "Custom_DialogSettings.xml" line 102 and 110 is :

xml:
<enable>Container.Content(movies)</enable>

Not a big deal. It is just FYI
