Hey Mike I was wondering if it is possible to tweak/mod the skin so that the movie duuration is reflected in hours and NOT minutes. So instead of 123 minutes being displayed it'd be 2h 3minutes.

Mike,

I would also like to see this implemented. There is a script already that does this: http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=220753

Not sure about this one I do not really like adding things that rely on addons I'll think about it though.

@Mikesilvo164

If you looking for stuff to do, is it possible you could add the Kodiflix view from the Madnox mod into your mod. I have hacked it into my local copy but it has none of the configurability of the original but it looks good.

There are a lot of variables that are checked and set in the Madnox skin which obviously aren't in your mod and I don't know how to set them, as I say it was 'hacked' in.

At the risk of telling the master what to do the steps I did were;

It needs
1) Some graphics from Madnox media folder views/kodiflix
2) Amends to the MyVideoNav.xml to add the view
3) Added the additional Kodilflix variables into Variables.xml
4) Amended the View_800_Kodiflix.xml to remove the variables checking to make things visible.

I had to disable fanart globally to hide the fanart in the view or it appears in the background, if I knew how to disable fanart per view it would be awesome.

I'm quite proud of my hacking so here is my version of kodiflix in your skin.

Kodiflix Silvo

Not a bad hacking job looks pretty good. Here is my WIP view so far



Anybody have any suggestions?
I still have to add cases and a couple of other surprises
I would post it for testing but there is a major issue that I am having trouble solving

Good morning Mike,

Would you be willing to look at BigNoids master branch of Nox 5, which is being dveloped for Kodi 16 already, and do something similar (perhaps in a new branch) for Nox Silvo? Two reasons for my asking:

1. As of today, the Kodi nightlies are based on Kodi 16, not Isengard.
2. In my testing of Nox Silvo with Kodi 16, there is a problem with side menus (like when you want to change viewtype options), in which the keyboard becomes unresponsive and some of the menu remains on the screen even after you leave the menu. Latest Nox 5 from GitHub does not exhibit this issue.

Thank you for considering my request.

Regards,

Bart

Not yet working on updating for Kodi v16 yet but I will start soonish.

Mike - not something I have asked before, but the live TV could do with a bit of love....

1. When pressing record in EPG, the record icon appears at the top of the programme title and pushes the text down. In my opinion the red dot should be aligned to the left at the start of the text.

2 . In the channel list view, on the right hand side at the bottom you have the what's next and then the description of the programme that's on now. Again in my opinion this should be swapped around to show the description of now and then the what's on next...

Hope this isn't too vaige, doing this from memory as on my hols at the moment....

Live TV is on hold for a little while. Hopefully if Maniac has any available time to assist with updating to his current mod it can happen sooner rather than later but he is busy with other things so please, and this goes to everyone, do not bug him about it.
Thanks.

Hi Mike,

I know your preference for the "paused" screen is for it to be uncluttered, but would it be much work to add an option to show the info screen (with the time remaining text) displayed when the video is paused?

Thanks

I will think it over... but if you want, I can tell you what to add so you can mod it in yourself.

Hi all. I just added this mod to my Aeon Nox 5.0 for the showcase view, which is pretty awesome, but found an issue. When you scroll through pages it only move 6 movies to the left or right, not a full page like all other views do. Is this a glitch or something that can be changed?

Thanks!

I looked into this and have no idea how to change that

Thanks again silvo, your mods are incredible!

You're welcome

Nothing happens when I click the shortcut i or click TV show information for TV shows, but it shows the info for movies.
I selected the option to replace extendedinfo.

Hmmm... can not replicate. Can you try updating ExtendedInfo from GitHub and if that does not work try opening the info for TV shows after enabling debug logging (please restart after enabling) then provide the link to the Debug Log (wiki)
