The color I am trying to change is the "background panel" color for movie and tv info panels. Both when it's solid and semi transparrent

You will not find another skin where you can make more color adjustments, but what you want to achieve is a very special request. You will not be able to do that with any settings in skin. You will not fail to deal with skinning .xml, especially dealing with textures and colors.

I have just spent 10 minutes on something and try to give you a little food for thought:

Go to C:\Users\youruser\AppData\Roaming\Kodi\addons\skin.aeonmq7.krypton.mod\1080i
Open the file DialogVideoInfo.xml with notepad++
We only look at the menu bar background color now:
Search in notepad++ for this line:

Code:

                <control type="image">
                    <left>0</left>
                    <top>0</top>
                    <width>1920</width>
                    <height>45</height>
                    <texture>darkgrey.png</texture>
                    <colordiffuse>$INFO[Skin.String(colortexture)]</colordiffuse>
                    <include>Animation_DefaultGlass2</include>
                </control>

Texture: This is the base texture and the base color, most of the base textures in this skin are darkgrey.
This texture is in the textures.xbt of the skin.
Colordiffuse: So you can color any texture afterwards. As far as I understand, the colored is then mixed with the base color of the base texture. You can also use it to set opiacity that also affect the base texture.
In this case, we defined the coloring by a Skin.String (I do not explain now), but you can define the color directly in ARGB format (for e.g yellow = FFFFFF00)

The include is unimportant in this case and makes no difference.

Darkgrey (base texture) to turn into yellow will be very difficult. The best way is to create a new texture with your desired color (1x1 pixel is enough) and enter the texture path (or compile it into textures.xbt https://kodi.wiki/view/TextureTool )
With collordiffuse you can then set your opiacity and if necessary, change color tone something.

After a few minutes playing around:

Since this is really a very special matter that does not have much to do with the skin itself, the skinning .xml area is more of the right place to open a thread and ask for support there:

I will not go into this more detail in this (wrong thread) - further support in skinning area.

I hope I could give you a little food for thought, Leave a thumb up if it helped. Greetings, Chris
