Hello!
@TurDo has released a trial version of the AZ2:R skin on Omega:

I tested the trial version on Android TV-based hardware. Introduced by @TurDo , the change turned out to be useful.![Smile Smile](https://forum.kodi.tv/images/smilies/smile.png)
After this fix, everything works fine in the AZ2:R skin
Attention. New improved functions require activation in skin settings:
Settings > SKIN > Video / Music > VIDEO OSD
Probably soon @TurDo will add the improved skin to their repository as AZ2:R version 1.0.12

@TurDo This trial version and also version 1.0.11 seem to have a broken List view for addons and videos.
The items that you scroll through all appear as huge icons on the left side instead of a text list with all the options on the right side. Is that intentional? Because I don't think it looks very well.

I have no idea what you mean. Can you show screenshot?
I haven't changed anything in the views. It sounds like a bug.

@TurDo After I install 1.0.11, the addon browser looks like this:
![Full sized picture Image](https://i.postimg.cc/TYsY0GY7/AZ2-R-addons.jpg)
The menu items that should be listed on the right are not visible, just a big black area.
However, I just found out this only happens on my Ugoos AM6B+ with CoreELEC Omega 21 NG. On my Shield 2019 Pro it does not happen.
But when I downgrade the Ugoos to 1.0.10, it looks ok again:

On my Android TV hardware, the AZ2:R Omega skin trial works great.
Tested on Android TV (Box Canal+ and Xiaomi Mi Box S).

@TurDo normally, Favorites pop-up window at the main screen in Kodi 20.5, but AZ2:R v1.0.11-Nexus indicate list, poster,.. views with Favorites. What do I have to do for the classic popup ?

Hello all,
Does anybody know of a way to initiate an AZ2 Search via a Keymap?
The shortcut within the skin is <action>Skin.SetString(SearchTerm)</action> which then feeds through to Window 1138 to display the results.
A custom keymap of <key>Skin.SetString(SearchTerm)</key> brings up the expected input dialog, but this doesn't go anywhere after entering the search term. Alternatively, <key>ActivateWindow(1138)</key> brings up the results window, but without the facility to enter a new search string.
Is it possible to write the keymap in such a way as to initiate the two actions in tandem as per the skin shortcut?

Hello!
@MrMagic , the new features concern operation via Android TV remote control and changing OSD settings of the AZ2:R skin.
AZ2:R skin maintainer @TurDo (DenDy) introduced OSD progress bar scrolling to the skin (OK button and works during pause). Included in skin settings:
Settings > SKIN > Video / Music > VIDEO OSD > Scroll progress bar instead of showing info panel
This is a new feature in the AZ2:R skin, which has been significantly improved in version 1.0.12
Because the OSD allows you to scroll the video on the progress bar, you can disable the video rewind buttons (this is also one of the newer options in the AZ2:R skin):
Settings > SKIN > Video / Music > VIDEO OSD > Hide forward/rewind buttons
In a trial previously provided by @TurDo (DenDy), an improved forward/backward video progress bar has been added to the OSD skin when the video is paused. This feature was not available in older versions of the AZ2:R skin. Once it was found to be working well, an improved OSD movie progress bar was introduced to the skin in version 1.0.12 This function is dedicated to devices based on Android TV and Xbox.

@TurDo good luck!
