I love the date added, last played, and play count too.  I don't even see why you'd ever want to turn it off.  It twould be neet if you could have it say "Never" if the file hasn't been played and play cound read "0."  But blank as it is now makes the point just as effectivly.

If you feel like it, I think the shift view media info may be better if it is possible to show the same info as when the video is selected.  This is how it works now in the tile view.  For example, in shift if the movie is ATMOS it only says Dolby True-HD on the shift screen, but once the movie screen is selectted it says ATMOS for the audio track.  Similar for DTSX.  It's also a bit odd that ATMOS and DTSX only show two speakers in the layout.  Don't know if it's possible in the skin code, but I almost think a circle icon without any speakers would be cool for object-oriented audio tracks (or perhaps a solid rectangle the same width as a speaker square all the way around).  But seriously, this is already great and the best it's ever been!

Nicely done.

The audio channels is read from the movie file by whatever scraper is being used.  This skin is supposed to ignore what the scraper reports and pick up the channels from the file/folder name instead.  If the file/folder name does not contain this information then the data provided by the scraper is used.   The same applies to aspect ratio and audio codec (only for Atmos and DTSX).  The two screens shown here were not coded to follow the same rules in this regard.  One would always use the scraper data and the other would prefer the file/folder name before the scrapper.

In the case shown here if the file/folder name contains "2.0" then the skin will display it as 2 channels.  

I have since fixed the both screen to prefer file/folder names.

On a related note...  I mentioned aspect ratio works this way too.  This one can be really helpful because the video files actually are 16:9 with black bars on the top and bottom so the scraper will report them as 16:9.   If you include the aspect ratio "2.35" or "2.40" in the file/folder name they will display as 21:9 instead.
Thanks for version 1.26.7!  I'm so happy and grateful that you are putting forth so much effort  Cool

Question; so my folder names for movies are always the exact IMDB name and year:
The Bourne Supremacy (2004)

I always include an nfo file with the same name and a link to the IMDB page:
The Bourne Supremacy (2004).nfo
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0372183/

However, my actual video file name always contains the pertinent info that I want displayed:
The.Bourne.Supremacy.2004.UHD.BluRay.2160p.DTS-X.7.1.HEVC.REMUX-MyRIP.mkv

Since version ~1.26.6 or 1.26.7 I now ONLY get the stereo icon on both the tiles and shift views and in the movie selection view screen.  I have 7.1 in the movie file name and it was enough before.  Is it possible that you've changed something that requires that the parent directory also must have 7.1 to properly scrape the number of channels icon?  How could I go about changing this so that it uses only the file name to get the number of channels?  Or am I just totally confused?

Thanks again,
craigr

7.1 is in the file/folder name and nothing else matches another channel configuration so it should using that.   
On 1.26.7 do the shift view and the movie details view both show 2.0?
Could you post your NFO file for this movie?
I'll see what I can figure out.
