what are you using exactly for your 'In progress TV shows'? and I take it this is Krypton as well?

Check post 5658 guandms, the latest Skin.Helper has an addon and that needs to be installed now if using GIT Skin.Helper.

Hi guys !
For several days now I see users dropping jarvis for krypton and using the latest git of Madnox, so I have some questions.
Is it worth it doing this now or should I wait for Krypton RC ?
What is the roadmap for Madnox Krypton ?
What are the issues that remain in terms of addon's and skin problems that are still unresolved ?
Is it really buggy right now ?
Thanks a lot for your answers !

In my case Kodi 16.1 have some nasty bugs. If i enter a folder with a lot of files Kodi crashes without a warning. After i have stopped a file it takes a long time to get the preview thumb back. This is a know issue in Kodi 16.1.
With Kodi 17 i have the stablest Kodi since a long time. No crashes.
I uses the Kodi 17 nighties since i noticed the crash when i enter a folder doesn't happen in Kodi 17. Also preview issue is solved. Madnox for Krypthon works fine in my case. Only the nasty bug with the missing textures.
But this is solved. I compile Kodi 17 since months myself and i'm very happy with this stable Kodi.
Maybe it's only in my case but Kodi 17 works better than 16.1 and Madnox works as good as in Kodi 16.1. All i need in Madnox is working great with Kodi 17. Maybe some minor display issues but i didn't notice everything.
All addons i need are working. I have written some addons for myself (home automation and automatic light and screen control) and all are working fine.
Maybe use a portable install of Kodi 17 and try yourself.
In my opinion Kodi 17 and Madnox is a great shot.
Hups, i forget to mention. In Kodi 17 it's possible to use HW for HEVC 10bit. I have some files with 4k HEVC 10 bit and with Kodi 16 i'm unable to play these files. With Kodi 17 i can play these files with a minimum of CPU usage
since Kodi 17 uses the new ffmpeg.
