At the small risk of coming off like a pest (I'm a tech support engineer so I know full well what it's like when ppl chuck problems your way!)

I will have more time to research the problem soon, but just as a quick entrée,. I have just updated Kodi (xbone) to 18.6, AS is ver 3.2.1, using skin: Eminence2Mod (I am completely in the dark as to where I downloaded this skin from but iirc it was probably a repo, then grabbed the skin from there).

So, the ARTIST SLIDESHOW UPDATE ALERT message is presen. Rather not change the skin (some a lot of customisation by now) but if I have to I will.

Which skins for me will work okay with AS right now please?

Stay safe all.

You can grab a copy of AS 2.x from here:

https://github.com/pkscout/repository.be...-2.1.5.zip

You'll have to uninstall AS 3.x and probably delete the settings.xml file, install 2.x from the zip, and then set it not to update.

There's also a thread for that mod, although I see someone posted asking about AS 3.x support a month ago with no reply:

You can also fix this yourself.  I downloaded the 3.04 version of this mod, and here's what you need to do:

1- open 16x9/MusicVisualization.xml

2- Starting at line 25 find:

xml:


<control type="multiimage">

    <aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>

    <include>FullscreenDimensions</include>

    <timeperimage>10000</timeperimage>

    <randomize>true</randomize>

    <fadetime>600</fadetime>

    <loop>yes</loop>

    <imagepath background="true">$INFO[Window(Visualisation).Property(ArtistSlideshow)]</imagepath>          

    <visible>Skin.String(MusicVisualisation, artistslideshow)</visible>

    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="65" time="0" condition="Skin.HasSetting(OSDVisualisation.ShowFanart)">Conditional</animation>

    <animation effect="zoom" start="110" end="130" center="auto" time="10000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>

    <animation effect="slide" start="-30,-30" end="30,30" time="6000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>

</control>

and replace it with:

xml:


<control type="image">

    <aspectratio>scale</aspectratio>

    <include>FullscreenDimensions</include>

    <fadetime>600</fadetime>

    <animation effect="fade" start="100" end="65" time="0" condition="Skin.HasSetting(OSDVisualisation.ShowFanart)">Conditional</animation>

    <animation effect="zoom" start="110" end="130" center="auto" time="10000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>

    <animation effect="slide" start="-30,-30" end="30,30" time="6000" tween="sine" easing="inout" pulse="true" condition="Skin.HasSetting(ArtistSlideshow.Animate)">Conditional</animation>

    <texture background="true">$INFO[Window(Visualisation).Property(ArtistSlideshow.Image)]</texture>

    <visible>Skin.String(MusicVisualisation, artistslideshow)</visible>

</control>

I think that will do it.
