AS is definitely broken for the latest official Kodi (18.5; at least under Android), whether I am using the pkscout's Leia Estuary mod or not.
I just did a clean reinstall to double check this - freshly installed Kodi 18.5, then installed Leia Estuary mod, then installed the AS, then enabled image override inside AS. Then regardless of the "background diffusion settings" (I tried default, None, and 100%) I get exactly the same behaviour:
- When music starts, first I see the foreground stuff - mp3 built-in image, title, progress bar. All looks bright and contrasty.
- 1-2 seconds later, I can see my slideshow starting in the background. Foreground is still visible (bright and contrasty), my slideshow has low contrast.
- 1-2 seconds later, the foreground disappears, my slideshow keeps running, but it still has exactly the same low contrast as before.
If I watch the same images using the Kodi's Pictures mode, they look bright and contrasty.
Is this behaviour intended? If yes, I'd really appreciate if it were fixed, as slideshow looks very bad.
If this is not intended, there must be a bug somewhere, which keeps the slideshow images at low contrast (presumably by keeping a semi-transparent black image in front of it).
Can you please look into this? Here are the logs (AS logging enabled):
