What are the issues with this skin and Matrix? I did encounter an installation issue but got past that fairly easily.

I used this method to change the scopenox settings via remote to make it wife-kids
friendly.
So you can change skin settings via JSON-RPC.
Funkd, I added a few hacks to your ScopeNox skin:
I appended these lines to your addon.py file in your script.scopenox.tools add on:
if sys.argv[1] == '169':
xbmc.executebuiltin('Skin.setbool (osd169)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('skin.reset (scopemask)')
if sys.argv[1] == '219':
xbmc.executebuiltin('Skin.reset (osd169)')
xbmc.executebuiltin('skin.setbool (scopemask)')
then make a json-rpc call from any browser or applications:
http://10.0.0.133:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Addons.ExecuteAddon", "params": {"wait": false, "addonid": "script.scopenox.tools", "params":"169"}}
or
http://10.0.0.133:8080/jsonrpc?request={"jsonrpc": "2.0", "method": "Addons.ExecuteAddon", "params": {"wait": false, "addonid": "script.scopenox.tools", "params":"219"}}
or you could bind the key in the keymap: in this example, I used F1, F2
<keymap>
<global>
<keyboard>
<key id="61584">RunScript(script.scopenox.tools,169,1)</key>
<key id="61585">RunScript(script.scopenox.tools,219,1)</key>
</keyboard>
</global>
</keymap>
Now if I can only find a way to adjust the absolute subtitle positions via scripting...
Changing subtitle alignment does not work. There seems to be a bug in Kodi 16.1.
You can set subtitle position to fixed and adjust it via video calibration. Once you change the
subtitle alignment: bottom of video, below video, above video, on top of video, fixed you loose
the fixed subtitle alignment. I verified this on FireTV and OSX.
Thank you again Funkd.

Any chance, you could explain how? Would be appreciated.

I can't speak for anything else but this will handle the movie duration issue.
Only the first two are necessary to get the duration displaying correctly.
I chose to also change the "localize" value because I think runtime is a better label than minutes when the value is displayed as hours, minutes and seconds.

Failed to install Add-on from zip file
The dependency on xbmc.gui 5.14.0 could not be satisfied.

One thing that is always a pain is the settings menus are impossible to use and I must switch skins to make changes to many settings then switch back. Any ideas on fixing that?(2020-01-29, 18:02)AEnz Wrote:(2019-09-04, 21:02)DAlba Wrote: For anyone that’s interested I was able to fix the movie duration and subtitle option osd issues by editing some xml files.

Nope, no other changes here. I'm actually still on Krypton and this was the first time I've looked at the skin code for many years. I'm curious what issue you have with the settings menu though. I don't recall any issues there.

Thank you!

Thanks for all you have done with this over the years and I still hope you somehow make time to keep maintaining this skin. I'm tell you, sleep is for the weak and is over ratedI have installd Kodi from Esturay and tried to install the Aeon Scope Nox zip file but i get an error.
Be sure to set your skin to Estuary before updating to Matrix! Then update Aeon Scope Nox.

I know I did the above and it worked on two of my Kodi boxes and I am running Matrix 19.1 with scope nox including correct runtimes in the movie view windows.
