I'm a great believer that theft is the sincerest form of flattery

Edit:- If you've added the relevant button, you can disable the context menu if you want (or look at moving other controls to it ) - whilst the context menu function needs testing, I doubt people will bother enabling/disabling via it now there's a button. I should say, though, 313 is part of v1.0.9 - v1.0.8 isn't even on the repo yet, so it will be a good while before this version is!

To disable the context menu, it should (if my code actually works) be as simple as adding

Code:

<contextmenu />

to your overrides.

I kept the button but added a few more options to the context menu for user testing. I thought you just wanted to test the disable function

I've been playing around with it for awhile and I couldn't break it

I don't mind adding things to test for Krypton cause it will be a bit before release anyway. I can always comment them out if having them there is an issue for those with an older skinshortcuts installed

Definitely interested in both being tested, I just thought that trying to hook users into testing with the disable function (when it's been requested here and is a part of the original Nox 5) might work! Your testing, and your encouragement of others to test, is hugely appreciated

Good morning guys today the Silvio repo updated to 1.0.3 and now there is no bar and lots of settings now missing anyone else with this problem

I would like some help with the fonts.xml file. I changed the default font to comics.ttf but some of the letters have become too large. i.e. when i search for a movie the source results are so big that not even the whole source name is visible. As a result I cannot see the quality of the source i.e. HD or SD which is usually at the end.

Does anyone know what each line in the xml file relates to, so as to make the necessary changes?

Hi, when playing a movie, how do I know if it is in 720p or 1080p etc?

Is there a setting i can use to show this when stream starts like on confluence?

Thanks in advance...

Hi guys, my skin just updated to the latest version and I lost ALL of my personalizations and shortcuts. I am feeling very angry right now. Seriously, what the hell? An update to the skin should not erase it's customizations. @mikesilvo164, is there any way to get them back, or do I have to redo everything every time you update the skin?

HI, I have the same my Kodi build and I guess friends and family's has been obliterated by today's update. Can you please pull the update offline and investigate.

[flhthemi]

Don't be angry with Mike....I THINK it is mostly due to Mr. V's widgets and the update to them is well worth the effort you have to put in to rebuild.

I myself am having issues setting up widgets on my Android Ugoos UT2 boxes. When I mouse click on Select widget 1 or Select Widget 2 it won't accept the mouse clicks. I can access them with a keyboard or the remote control's OK button but no mouse click!

I didn't figure this out until I uninstalled Kodi and started all over again on the first of two of the UT2's. I'm not mad or angry and I have a full install to do! Keep smiling dude it'll be OK in the end!

Hi if I want to add new fonts to my MXQ Pro box, is the following the correct procedure :

Android/data/org.xbmc.xbmc/files/.xbmc/media/Fonts

And am I right in that you have the add the directory MEDIA and FONTS to get this too work ?

I just want to add some more fonts to my build and wasn't sure entirely how to do this

Any help would be appreciated as I am using an Android Box MXQ Pro and not PC

Thanks

Thing is, I have Retropie installed on my RPI and use this skin with a self made script to launch Emulation Station. It took me a while to figure that out and make a shortcut for that. Also had the sweetest menu shortcuts and now it's all gone. Have to redo everything. Don't really care about the widgets, though, and I'm not really mad with Mike, I am mad because I have to do it all over again. Some bugs are sometimes expectable, but not like this major one. Oh, well, I know it wasn't ment, but please correct it asap. I am sure I won't be the only one complaining

I am feeling angry myself. I spent a lot of time adding an update warning to the skin that only when you either select RESET or do not read it and close without choosing CANCEL does it reset the menu. Menus should not reset if you read the warning and press cancel. Did you guys not see the warning? Anybody reloading the skin during update (black screen)? While I understand the frustration and I would like to track the issue down but bitching and complaining isn't very helpful. You are using software and sometimes shit happens that is why backups are recommended.

In order to add new or diferent fonts to the skin, you have to add your ttf file to the "fonts" folder. You will also have to edit the font.xml file on 1080i folder, in order to include your new font. You can also simply change the font file name into the one used on the main menu, but everytime the skin is updated, you will loose that change and revert to the skin's original font.

Hi mikesilvo, I have backups of my build and was in the process of restoring to a new Firestick, all went well until the usual updates started to come through then everything goes black. Just started my own Firestick up and the same has happened, no warning messages appeared.
Can't you take this update offline to prevent this happening to thousands more people ?.
Thanks for all your hard work.

Unfortunately the update will stay. What are you doing during or after the black screen? Black screen means wait till the update is finished and you return to the addon manager.

Hi, I did choose not to update the home menu, as I didn't wish to upset the wife, I'm not having any problems at the moment, but maybe now I should have chosen to reset to keep things running smooth. How do i now initiate the reset? and does it really need doing if everything is working fine, am I missing some new features.

Thanks for your continued work
