ok now this is even more strange now. the dim is gone again just as it was there all over sudden. i did not change any settings etc. what could this be?

@billyrene , I really do not know what could be going on in your case.  The only way I can think of, for the dim not to be there, is that the texture that is the dim overlay cannot be found in your system.  What OS and Kodi version are you using? Please let me know, since it might be a letter casing issue if you are using any version of Linux (LibreELEC, CoreELEC, etc.) or Android.  Thanks.

@billyrene , please test Amber 3.2.113, it is already on the Amber repo.  Please confirm that you now have the dim.  Thanks.
