Update: I've removed the skin's dependency on script.embuary.helper and made a new script, script.copacetic.helper. This should be much more lightweight as it only has what's required by this skin and doesn't have (at present) any monitoring services running in the background. It's also updated to Nexus requirements, so it shouldn't have any errors/warnings in the log like you may have been getting.

If you're not using Embuary Helper for other skins, you can disable/uninstall it.

If you installed via the repo, the new helper should be downloaded and installed automatically next time you update the skin. If you installed manually, you can grab script.copacetic.helper here: https://github.com/realcopacetic/script....tic.helper

I think you've added views to add-ons, however its view is the only one available for the add-on Advanced Emulator Launcher. And it doesn't show any art. Just title and black background.

Also, for browsing videos not in the library and smart playlists also only have list view with no art - only title and black background.

Thanks again for the ongoing support to this awesome skin.

Correction: *lists view

Do you have plan to make a global search ?
Thank you

Ok sure,

For playlists, I've added a background slideshow that displays items from the currently highlighted playlist. 

I added support for AEL. I had to change slightly how the views work so let me know if you run into any problems. Usually they are based on the container.content tag, but that is empty for this plugin. Anyway, I think it should be working.

You should have access to all poster/square layouts at the folder level and all layouts at the files level (i.e. the lists of games). But I just added a bunch of roms for testing purposes so not sure how people tend to set this up. Let me know if anything isn't working right.

Posters = boxfront
Fanart = fanart
Square = scrapes
Clearlogo = clearlogo

I also added support for the metadata and flags. Ratings flags should be working but studio flags I will need to add some. Right now, there is only SEGA as a test flag.

Looks mighty fine. Excellent. Great job! Thank you so much!

Just one more thing though. Can you also add views to browsing video clips and files not included in the library (movies, TV shows)?

But if videos are not in the library they wouldn't have artwork would they? That's why I limited to list view because to me it looked like these files would only have the embedded thumbnail, which is low quality.

I know that if you have folders it will pick up and display poster.jpg etc but for the videos themselves it reverts to an autogrnerated thumbnail I think

I did have grid view enabled originally but the typical length of video filenames doesn't work well with this view

The view for videos not in the library which I'm particularly interested in is the same as the view for Artists in the music library. Layout: Grid / Display: Fanart and Layout: Grid / Display: Fanart. This will also be a welcomed view for the Pictures gallery. See screenshots below.

I feel like I'm asking a lot of your time. I do appreciate your efforts. Being a longtime Kodi user I've tried so many skins but none come close to the aesthetics and simplistic design in Copacetic. It's just so excellent in every way. I hope more people would discover this skin. Thanks again.

Nice skin!! I’ll try it later this day! I can’t wait. It seems to be exactly what I need!

Ok I'll add it. No worries it's nice you're into it!

I noticed you see the display option twice in that menu. I'll check that out

[Vinz22]

I installed it ! And I like it !! Awesome job ! Thank you for this !

Anyone else experiencing video add-ons auto opening/playing when going into a menu? @realcopacetic it started happening with the latest update from the repository...noticed the change log on GitHub 'Fix to stop AEL roms autoplay due to embedded list' could this be causing the behaviour?

Yeah I think so. Let me push an update shortly to remove the offending item until I can figure out what's going on

[Vinz22]

I’m using it since yesterday. Everything is awesome. I really like it. But could you maybe ad an option to have check marks instead of dim the canary of seen videos? The idea of dimming is really nice but it makes the screen a bit sad when many movies are seen..

[HuggyOnline]

I noticed that album background art has reverted to black background. Perhaps an error slipped in with the latest update.
