The latest update looks weird in my smartphone?

All you need to do is make a folder containing the smart playlists somewhere on your device (somewhere outside the skin folder since that'll get overwritten when the skin updates).
Then it's simply a matter of customising the hub and pointing that submenu list to that folder by manually inputting that path

e.g say if save my smart playlists in C:\myplaylist\tags\
then choose Categories > Submenu list > Custom item and input that path

thank you, didn't expect it to be that simple.

The skin now supports screen ratios other than 16:9 -- it will no longer be stretched out of proportion on devices with non-16:9 screen ratios. So in fact it looks "correct" now and previously was incorrect on your phone.

However, there will be some small issues present as it is work in progress. See the meta issue thread for screen ratio on github for known issues and to report other issues not listed.

Hi - on the home page when using TMDB Helper paginated widgets, the 'next page' item background shows details on how many items you have in your library (x movies, x TV shows, x albums etc). As I don't have any items in my library I would rather not have this information shown. Is there an option to disable it (or an XML line I can change to remove it)? Thank you.

Yeah, you're right! The poster now didn't cut out the top & buttom part.

And the landscape style gap in the left & right side is gone.

Currently, this one issue that I've seen.
The submenu cut in that part.

Is there a setting to adjust the timeout for spotlight changing? As it is now the summary text almost always never finishes scrolling before it switches.

Also the OSD shows on the right of the seek bar "elapsed time" | "total time".  Not trying to be a smartass but I am pretty much never looking for that information but rather how long until the movie or show has until it is finished.
What I end up doing is subtracting the elapsed time from total time to determine remaining time --which is what imo most folks are looking for. It's not like it is a difficult calculation but shouldn't it just show remaining time instead?

It's already the most user friendly skin I have used. This is a small thing and most interfaces do it the "wrong way", but it is a computer and shouldn't the computer do the math and present the information most people are looking for?
Usually when I am checking it is because I am ready for sleep and wondering how long until the movie is over. Brain foggy at 4 am. Smile

Example:

10:33 / 126:33 <--------seek bar--------------> 116:00

elapsed time / total time <--------seek bar--------------> remaining time

Recently I added local TV channels. But I can't find a working EPG.
Anyway, how do I change the information above with the TV channel name with the channel in focus.

See, I'm the exact opposite most of the time and find myself wanting to check elapsed time rather than remaining. I find elapsed is a good indicator of whether I'm enjoying something ("Wow, this movie is engrossing! I've been watching for 2 hours and it only felt like 20 minutes"; or the reverse "Wow, this movie is dragging! I've only watched 20 minutes and it's felt like forever"), and that also gives me a better sense in terms of "feel" of how much is left (if I'm tired and the movie is dragging I probably won't even make it through another 10 minutes, whereas something I'm engrossed in I can manage to stay awake for).

Elapsed time is also really useful when someone joins on the couch when the movie has already started ("Oh, only 10 minutes in, let's go back to the start / catch me up"; or "Already 50 minutes in, maybe I'll watch it later myself"). I also find it easier to figure out how far along the movie is ("2:30 into a 3 hour movie - we're in the final act" etc.).

At the end of the day, it's the same either way: one of the values needs to be calculated in your head. But I'm happy to implement an option to switch as I do understand why someone would want it the other way.


And to your other question: Autoscroll duration for widgets can be changed:
Skin Settings > Behaviour > Autoscroll time interval

We will need a Debug Log that captures the above error.

Sometimes I get the same error and it's because my ISP blocks unofficial kodi addon installs. I usually have to use a Hotspot on my phone 5g provider and download the unofficial add-ons.

Maybe try the same on your end?

Any way to get such a menu too? can you tell the widget source and style? Normally mine gives very low quality images and not the correct image aspect

I'm using library node editor to do that. And some images in the internet for the logo.

Can you point to them images for the logos? A zip file maybe?
This skin looks amazing! Is by by the guy that did aura mod? Haven't used Kodi for years and was just starting to set up arctic horizon 2 and then found this!
Gonna check it out when finish work!
Apologies in advance for the questions that I'll no doubt be asking over the next few days.
This skin looks already set up. Is it easy to delete certain parts and swap things around without messing everything else up?
Wow just checked this skin out. Can't believe how amazing it is! It's like an example of a perfect skin! Going to spend a while checking it out. Makes the old skin I set up for myself look ridiculous 😂
when viewing regular videos i only have single horizontal row mode. and vertical menu in the left.
am i doing something wrong? other skins have at least 5-6 browse modes to choose from.
