A couple of things I noticed:
1. When scrolling through the widgets in netflix bingie mode:
    The widget-headline is displayed properly when scrolling down, but when scrolling up you can only read the headline of the widget below,
    so you don't actually know in which widget you are browsing until you go up and back down again

2. When selecting a movie from a widget it plays directly, but when selecting a tv-show it first enters all tv-shows.
    The right tv-show is still selected but I have to press select again to actually enter it.
    Not sure if this is skin related or a problem with the skin helper addon but with the estuary skin it enters the tv-show directly from a widget like "recently watched"

Did test now.
I see no need to fix, because its just related to Skinhelper Widgets, and in that case you simply can use Kodi default Widgets, wich will give you the wished result

- just switch to another widget source ( choose - widgets -> video Library (instead of default widgets)->tv shows ->in progress )

Hi,

first of all thx for this nice mod!
I've found some minor bugs.

1/ Remaining duration of live tv
The remaining duration of live tv doesn't work correctly in the osd.
For every other content like movies or netflix and so on it works properly.
Also in the small channel list its shown correctly.
2/ Long entries won't be shown correctly in the live tv osd

 - worked on fix,

1. cant replicate it, seems you need to wait for refresh (PVR backend/addon) on load
2. is fixed in latest git hub version

Hey MardukL is there a way to take my Bingie Mode build and switch it over to yours without errors and what not? I have put several hours into the build on his MOD and I would like to try switching it over to yours to try it out. I like how you have the info dialog screen with the seasons and episodes different than his.

 It'll be not that easy, but it can work. But some settings will be missing/lost.
We have some diffences in code and skinsettings (footer, order of settings, osd settings, videoinfo settings,infolabels ...)

So , i highly recommened start over fresh to avoid some frustration. I suggest use one device wich have your prefered setting, and comapre manualy to a fresh install of that mod.

What will be work is a port of a color theme, but again all new colors wich are missing in bingie mod will have the MOD default values/colors. So just go ahead to color settings, define the "new colors" and save your theme. 

 Ok the majority of the time I spent in my build was amassing a huge Library and assigning Fanart for roughly 500 TV Shows and around 1000 Movies. I used add on integration so I believe I could do as you suggested to get the skin as desired after copying the addon that's integrated to my ibrary and transfer to a clean Kodi with just the Library remaining delete everything else before trying to install your Mod of Titan without losing the many many hours of work. Worse case scenario I keep a copy of Bingies Mod and revert back if I have to.

 ok, i wondered a bit.
You didnt need to delete anything. unless you want a really fresh start.
You can have bingie mod, beside this mod.
You can also keep titan beta itself.

The skins have all different id's, so no skin will get override by another.

The Issue i talked about was only related if you wanna worked with, skinhelper backup.
(Backup Bingie and use it for Titan MOD should be not that good)

mardukL is your mod set up work with addons on the info dialog screen using the Bingie view in particular? On Bingies Mod the way the play button works is by looking at the inprogress library in Kodi. This works great if you add everything to your library but causes skin helper service errors and doesn't play if you try to play an item from an addon. Everything works fine if you set up kodi's video settings default select action to play however if you have it set to show information that's when you get the errors play failure. I love his Mod but say you want to add a legal addon to the widgets or even just try to use an addon from within his skin mod when the default select action is set to show information it doesn't work.

 Its actual not different tahn thge Bingie Mod in that case, but i'can take a look sometime.
<onclick>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Container(5050).ListItem.FileNameAndPath],resume)</onclick>, causing it.
I'm unsure if it'll be an solution to have a condition for Video Addons wich uses  URL path.

Need some more aknowledgent, maybe there is also another solution.
But atm i have no idea, but i'll keep it in mind with a wish to solve it.


The Mod itself is a "construction yard", since there are alot dependencies wich want to be in harmony. 

 Hey MardukL any progress with figuring out a fix for this? this is truly the one Bug that keeps the Titan Mods from being the perfect Kodi skin at least in my eyes. Your "construction yard" is turning into the Sistine Chapel good work buddy.

 Actual no, but i didnt forgot.

Personal Side Note:

if you wann do a really fresh start and want to have a clean backup, without set up everything again on next install
- install kodi, install and set up just the neccesarry addons (scrapper, artwork downloader...evrything where you like to use your api keys and language settings, etc)
- if you finished with this, make a backup from filepath
(copy the kodi folder to your backup device/storage , e.g. for android : Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi, maybe rename/or put into seperate folder callded "clean start")


So, you will still have a "virgin" Kodi, but must not set every setting again on next fresh install (i think set scrapper , api keys, kodi settings takes the most time). if something messed up, just uninstall Kodi.
install KODI again, and before start , copy your backup in the given folder.

Thank you I will try this. Going into the kodi folders and making a few changes are within my skillset going beyond that making changes to the .xml is where things start to become a bit confusing for me.

Hi - maybe someone can help me, It's probably a setting in the transparancy somewhere, but I have the issue that when I go into the movie info, select cast and then select an actor/actress, that the background of the next step is transparent (showing the original list of cast memebers and making reading harder).



Any quick pointers, I've been looking through my settings and haven't found it.

[MrGenius1]

@mardukL Anything on the issues I have?

Skin bug.need to fix.add it on to do.

Thanks Marduk, for the feedback on picking up issues.

I'll wait patiently and enjoy your work in the mean time

 I Find this only happens with a mixture of @cartman.dos mod and your's @mardukL  i wouldn't say this is a bug.. More like people messing things up.. I Know i got the exact screen a few weeks ago when i combined a few things from both mods. Its an Easy Fix.. Just delete the skin folder from addons and re-install. The settings for widgets ect will still be available

A couple of things I noticed:
1. When scrolling through the widgets in netflix bingie mode:
    The widget-headline is displayed properly when scrolling down, but when scrolling up you can only read the headline of the widget below,
    so you don't actually know in which widget you are browsing until you go up and back down again

2. When selecting a movie from a widget it plays directly, but when selecting a tv-show it first enters all tv-shows.
    The right tv-show is still selected but I have to press select again to actually enter it.
    Not sure if this is skin related or a problem with the skin helper addon but with the estuary skin it enters the tv-show directly from a widget like "recently watched"

And one question :
3. Is there any command / action id so that I can assign a controller button for playing the trailer?
    I don't like the trailer auto playing but I love how it looks when the trailer is playing in the corner.    

 I didnt test with the keymap editor.

But it could be problematic.Because just movies have trailer path / scraped trailers. This result in need of having 2 diff commands depending to content

xml:


<!-- example for movie -->

[[String.IsEqual(Window(Home).Property(contenttype),movies) | String.IsEqual(ListItem.DBTYPE,movie)] | ![String.IsEqual(Window(Home).Property(contenttype),tvshows) | String.IsEqual(ListItem.DBTYPE,tvshow)]]

For windowed trailer playback, i use
<key>action</key>

a) for Movies : <**>PlayMedia($INFO[ListItem.Trailer],1)</**>
b) No movie - call skinhelper script autoplay youtube windowed in kodi system language : <**>RunScript(script.skin.helper.service,action=playtraileryoutube,title=$INFO[ListItem.Title],local=true)</**>

c) for Movies spotlight widget : <**>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Container(1508).ListItem.Trailer],1)</**>
d) No movie for spotlight widgets : <**>PlayMedia($ESCINFO[Container(1508).ListItem.Trailer],1)</**>  

ok so I tried mapping those actions to a controller button.
a) / c) / d) doesn't seem to do anything when hovering over a widget item or an item inside all movies / all tv-shows
[c) and d) are the same action btw, don't know if intended]

b) however starts playing a trailer from any of those views, but it is always the same trailer
I don't know where it picks that trailer from. It is not a trailer of any movie I selected and still the same after a restart.

Also I don't understand the differenciation between movies and tv-shows.
For me it always plays a trailer for both when I press the "up" on my left joystick inside "all movies" / "all tv-shows" (netflix view)....
So what action is performed when doing this? Shouldn't I be able to map this action to any button and maybe use it with widgets aswell?
(It doesn't seem to be specified in the joystick.xml)
