Code:

    <variable name="Fanart">
        <value condition="String.IsEqual(Container.FolderPath,videodb://movies/genres/)">http://localhost:52307/getmoviegenreimages&amp;title=$INFO[Listitem.Label]&amp;type=fanart.0</value>
        <value condition="String.IsEqual(Container.FolderPath,videodb://tvshows/genres/)">http://localhost:52307/gettvshowgenreimages&amp;title=$INFO[Listitem.Label]&amp;type=fanart.0</value>
        <value condition="[Container.Content(seasons) | Container.Content(episodes)] + !String.IsEmpty(Container.Art(tvshow.fanart))">$INFO[Container.Art(tvshow.fanart)]</value>
        <value condition="!String.IsEmpty(Container.Art(artist.fanart))">$INFO[Container.Art(artist.fanart)]</value>
        <value condition="!String.IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(fanart))">$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]</value>
        <value condition="!String.IsEmpty(Window(home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.Art.Fanart))">$INFO[Window(Home).Property(SkinHelper.ListItem.Art.FanArt)]</value>
    </variable>

As you can see it checks first if a local artwork is available (ListITem.Art(fanart)). Only if it's empty the SkinHelper value is going to be used.
But keep in mind that SkinHelper runs as a service and will always download them. No matter if they are used or not.

mhh strange. In other Skins it works perfect. In previous versions of your skin it works too. Did you change something in the last Version?

I use Ember Media Manager to scrape the artwork.

[sualfred]

Changed nothing.

Should be a tiny issue on your side. Please post a debug log to see what is causing it.

Hi Sualfred,

any idea why rotten tomatoes ratinugs are gone? I remember that they where showing on the movie information screen. I recently updated the skin and now the do not show anymore.

Also, the banners have disappeared. I read a while back someone had the same issue and you updated the skin to fix it (read that in github changelog). However, i can't seem to get banners to work anymore.

Thanks in advance for your help

Be sure you have the latest skin helper versions (service, widget, backup) installed. Marcel splitted his addon into parts. All are available in his repo. The download link is mentioned a few threads earlier.

The rotten tomotaoes rating issues are caused by a omdb api attack. See the note on its website http://www.omdbapi.com/. To help please visit https://www.patreon.com/omdb

I have the latest Krypton running the latest FTV sualfred edition and have encountered a couple of problems.

Firstly, I can't seem to get the "jump to letter" option working when browsing my collections. I click on a letter but it never jumps to that part of the collection.

Second, I can't seem to backup the widget configuration. It keeps reverting to a default widget group and I have to set my widgets frequently. In an effort to speed up this process, I wanted to backup my widget configuration but when I click "backup" in the menu...nothing happens. It just seems to hang.

Awesome skin mod though. I had been using the Jarvis version and I do like the changes found in this version.

I feel like a parrot

It's required that you have the latest beta versions of the skin helper services running. All are available in Marcels repo (skin.helper.widgets, skin.helper.service, skin.helper.skinbackup)

Edit:
I've pushed them to my repo. But I highly recommend to install Marcels repo for updates.

please report your errors + debug log in this thread. I've tried to reproduce it, but for me it's working on all 4 devices.

Edit:
And be sure you have the other addons installed as well

You have to use the latest version of this:

https://github.com/marcelveldt/script.sk...er.service
https://github.com/marcelveldt/script.sk...skinbackup
https://github.com/marcelveldt/script.sk...er.widgets

To be save you guys should use Marcels rep to get all updated dependencies.
https://github.com/marcelveldt/repositor...-1.0.1.zip

Thanks a bunch. Works fine now.

Also thanks for the patreon page, would not have know about that. Hopefully things get back to normal.

Hi Sualfred, can you make it possible to use Extended info script mod in your fantastic skin. I have Extended info script installed as per your skin dependences. I also installed the Extended info script mod but only the original extended info script appears and doesn't have the same configuration screens. Any help would be appreciated

[sualfred]

Don't get what you mean. The dialogs are working. More details?

sualfred:

What file do I need to modify to include if the movie is top250? i checked dialogvideoinfo, but can't find where to stick it

Thanks

2 tools:

- Brain.exe

Sorry, I won't give any modding instructions -> Learning by doing

@Edworld I found that a grep type tool for finding references in xml files to be invaluable for following the trail of includes in skin files. That and notepad++ which is great

@sualfred I am so stealing the Brain.exe line for my day job.
