What I had a look at looked really good - and if you are already using it yourself, I'm confident it'll work for everyone
I'll add it to the Kodi repo somewhere next week, along with a few other modules I'm creating atm.
Or to the new unoffical repo ;-)

$INFO[Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.Music.Albums)] is visible in DialogMusicInfo but as soon as the textviewer is active, the property is going to be cleared even if the info dialog stays visible in the background
Should be fixed now on Git. I've added some code to not flush anything when a modal dialog is active. Should do the trick but please test.

The error is now fixed on Git. It crashed because there was no cast info found.

Ah okay, I missed that because currently only OMDBAPI is used to query the overall ratings.
I can add this in within a few weeks but I'd like to know what would be the preferred option for skinners:
1. Have the data available in window props (imo not the best solution).
2. An additional plugin path to get a list of the reviews.You can then use a custom container to list the reviews.
imo option 2 is best so you have a list of listitems with the info set.
e.g.:
ListItem.label --> Name of the reviewer
Listitem.Plot --> Quote of the review
Listitem.Date --> date the review was added
ListItem.Property(freshness)
ListItem.Property(reviewlink)
ListItem.Property(score)

I assume that for TV Shows
listitem.year
should contain the year of the TV Shows Season first aired?
Guilouz said, that it is probably a skin helper issue?
No, it's actually a skin issue.
ListItem.Year --> Year the TV show started
ListItem.FirstAired --> Date the episode first aired
The skin should use Firstaired and not year for episodes...

That is not possible, the script doesn't touch the actual files, it just references them. How they are displayed completely depends on the skin and offcourse the artwork quality itself.

The ratings are automatically refreshed when you restart Kodi

However, I'm finding that Kodi will hang on exit due to the 'skin helper service'. These are my logs when I try to exit:

I also disabled Arctic Zephyr and disabled 'skin helper service' and I suddently am able to exit Kodi just fine. Is there an issue with this addon that just needs to get fixed? Or am I doing something wrong?
This should not happen at all, the code is created to make sure a clean shutdown happens at all times.
Looking at your log somehow the service gets started again right after it stopped.
Tbh I did not yet hear about this issue before so I'm starting to think something is messed on your end.
One think you could try to rule it all out is to make a backup of your kodu userdata folder, and start fresh (rename or delete the userdata folder).
Only install the skin (and so the skinhelper addon) and look if it quits properly.
One thing that pops into my head is that you have a duplicated version of the addon on your setup, might happen if you install from Git (never do that).

For example:
The Prodigy -> Prodigy
The Offspring -> Offspring
Please explain better what you mean, currently I have no clue

Hi,
For example:
When play internet radio streams from Kodi radio addon, if the artist name is 'The Offspring' the skinhelper find and show well all artwork, logo, artdisc, thumb, etc... But if the artist name is 'Offspring' the skinhelper can't find anything...
It's possible find a way to fix this?
Thanks.
