One thing I'd like to suggest, if it's possible, or even if you can point me in the right direction, is some kind of visual 'caching' or 'buffering' display when the internet based stream isn't keeping up the pace. I use this skin on a few friends and family members devices, and they always seem to think their box has frozen, as they never seem to think to bring up the menu or move the mouse to display the CACHE display in the top corner. Other skins I've used in the Jarvis days may dim the screen and display a percentage, or may give a little loading circle in the middle of the screen.
It's also quite possible it can be enabled somewhere already that I've missed too...
Thanks, and keep up the good work!
Thanks!
If I recall correctly, the skin (or Kodi) distinguishes between you pausing the video and letting it buffer, and the video itself pausing because it cannot continue playing without buffering. However, shouldn't the "Caching" text pop up on its own along with the rest of the OSD when buffering starts? Could you confirm?
At the moment there is no setting, but I should be able to think of something more intuitive. If the menu appears and then disappears, it could be as simple as making it so. The biggest problem for me would be to find a sufficiently slow source, so I can tweak this properly.
