I'm having problems with my sub menus. I have set up in my picture main menu. a sub menu for "Flikr's interesting" today and a couple of others. If I select the sub menu it plays well but if I select the main tab to see all the sub menus I have, I get a blank page. I tried to change action for the main tab but really not sure where I should point it to see my sub menus when dealing with addons.
Thanks

I am setting up my Aeon Nox 5.7.3 skin options on my windows 10 laptop, once I am happy with my set up I want to transfer it to my Android TV box.
My question is related to the main menu background path/s for the 'Set item background'.
When I set a background for my UK TV main menu option the images I want to use are in a folder named UK TV in my Kodi (Home) folder.
To set the background I choose UK TV>Set item background>Set multi-image background>Home folder>backgrounds>UK TV then choose ok, the backgrounds show OK in the menu, but the path has been set to C:\Users\MYNAME\Appdata\Roaming\Kodi\backgrounds\UK TV\, my concern is that when I transfer my build to my Android box my paths will be invalid as they point to the C drive on my laptop.
I have looked at a build I downloaded and the path is 'special://home/backgrounds/UK\, which I am assuming will work correctly on different platforms.
I cannot find out how to set my path as 'special' it is not one of the standard options as far as I can tell.
Can anyone tell me how to set my background paths using this special option so that they will be valid on different platforms?

There's a minor navigation bug on the info screen for movies/episodes; if you press 'back' when a cast member is highlighted, you're taken to the info screen for the cast member rather than backing out of the current info screen as expected.
Steps to reproduce it:
1) Bring up the info screen for a movie/episode
2) Press down twice to get to the cast
3) Press 'back' to try to back out of the info screen
Observe: The info screen for the highlighted cast member is opened up, as if you had pressed 'i'

Hi, sorry if this has come up before.
I recently upgraded my Kodi to 15.2 Isengard from Helix. Several days later, I have a strange issue: I have plot hidden for unwatched items at the system level. If I browse my library (List view) for unwatched episodes I can see the plot hidden ("* Hidden to prevent spoilers *"). Good so far.
However, when I start my video and press I (for Info), I get the plot appearing at the top of the screen now. All I used to get was the resolution, codec info etc in a simple small banner.
I don't know if this has appeared suddenly or always been there for Isengard. Is there an easy way for me to revert the Info panel?

Many thanks @mikesilvo164, will try it later. Is this a known issue? I don't mind the plot coming up if I've already watched a show, but it's obviously not ideal for unwatched.

You could also press select and than it will toggle to show the cast instead of the plot. The setting persists, so you have to do this only one time.
