The same behavior is found in the windows versions as well.   So some change was made between 17.6 and 18.1 on how KODI displays images. 

That being said it's definitely not a AS problem, but the problem seriously affects the way the images look when displayed.  

Not sure where to go from here unless you can send it back to the dev's for a resolution.

I think I found the difference between the v17 and v18 skin.  If you go to my v18 mod folder and look for xml/MusicVisualization.xml you can change line 43 from:

Code:

<aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>

to:

Code:

<aspectratio>keep</aspectratio>

I think that will revert back the behavior.  I've been pretty consistent about not wanting to change much of the default Estuary behavior in my mod except for the home screen customization, so I need to decide if I'm going to consider this a bug and fix it or just leave it.  I just hate the idea that any time I update my mod that you'd have to manually make that change.  So maybe there's a new option to add to the mod.  '-) 

 Ok I changed it as suggested.  It does change the behavior back to the original.  

There is however another problem.  The images are displayed on top of the fan art, and the fan art always displays around the edges. 

With it set to scale you just can't see the fan art because each image covers the whole screen.  In previous versions the fan art displayed as the first image and then the slide show started.
