Regarding missing backgrounds, I found some time last night to figure out why it happens - though not what can be done about it. All the backgrounds that are going missing have a colordiffuse applied to them from a variable - often, but not exclusively, $VAR[ColorDiffuseVar]. That $VAR[] in turn calls multiple other $VAR[]'s to get the final color to be applied. When the backgrounds stop displaying, the $VAR[] has stopped returning any value, so Kodi is applying an empty colordiffuse, and so making the backgrounds invisible.

Thank you Sir Bob of Bobbyland, is that where brave sir Robin ran away too?, I guess I'll have to have a little chat with the VARs and find a resolution to this.

@pustekuchen, I see you mean landscape option on widgets, ok I'll see if we can build fake landscape like most other places. I'll chat to Mr, V about the 'i' option on widgets as he is the mastermind behind the widgets.

@Lockos, to get logos etc. for Music the first thing you have to do is of course have the relevant png files locally, then you need to go into settings and PATHS and correctly set the last 2 options to do with music, on is you music library location and the other is music library structure, you have about 3-4 choices, from original 4.1.9.9. or Shednox as we have never changed this, and you need to state which yours is i.e. for mine I set the option to Artist\Album. This is required as this is used to build the path to get the logos etc etc for music.

This is all old and will hopefully get updated to probably use skin.helper to get the music logo etc etc so these 2 options may not be needed, but when that happens I don't know as we have alot on our lists at the moment and they are growing each day.

@Moustache, have you set the relevant option in the Artwork downloader options to download actor thumbs?
