1. Pic from Estuary: The red rectangles mark PlotOutline. It is the name of the Episode
2. same as above, but with Plot at the bottom. Here you see the button "Als nächstes" which shows the upcoming event on the channel. This is, where I got the idea from
3. New bigger Info with PlotOutline (red) and a possible area to show Plotoutline in LiveTV InfoBar (green) -> this is a new idea, I had looking at Estuary. I don't want to copy Estuary, not at all, but PlotOutline in a smaller font in the green area is IMHO useful
4. small Info with PlotOutline
5. and 6. show the upcoming events ("Als nächstes") on the channel -> big and small info
I hope you can understand now the need of Plot _and_ PlotOutline
Estuary pics only seem to highlight the differences between the skins and this particular one will never look like estuary.
I do, however, not mind borrowing from other skins but this is a mod of Nox 5 and will forever be
I get what you are suggesting but before I will add PlotOutline in those places I need to hear from other users in different geographic areas using different backends (i.e. not just yours or from Germany) because I definitely do not want to add many options for every possible Plot/Outline combination there is... If this is all uniform then alrighty then but I cannot know that since I am not a Live TV user and also your pics show a lot of unused extra space for a long plot but even with the added short PlotOutline do not fill up that area which feels like wasted space to me
Probably was not as clear as I could be so here goes...
Estuary is a new skin currently in alpha so while it is seriously (incredibly) well designed by smarter people than myself (phil65, Piers, and BigNoid) it does not have the years of use to take it as the gospel of current Kodi skin design but after they make more Kodi core changes to make it that way then OK but until then... I have to err on the side of caution in matters where I cannot fully test.
Hope that makes some sense.
