Hello all,
I have uploaded versions 3.4.26 (Matrix) and 3.2.146 (Leia) to GitHub and the Amber repos. The main changes are:
1. Option to Hide Vertical Menu when Shelves are Focused. When this new setting is set to Yes, the vertical menu will hide when you focus the shelves. You can find the new setting here:
And it can look like this:
2. Option to use custom image (or images), video or playlist at startup. There is a new setting in the Advanced section of the Amber settings that allows you to set a custom image, folder of images, video or playlist to be shown on Kodi startup. I explain the use in the following post: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3051584.
By default, even if you have a custom image or intro video shown on startup, the Kodi splash screen is shown briefly. You can avoid that by including <splash>false</splash> in your advancedsettings.xml file (thanks @bobrap for that tip).
3. Show video info dialog from the fanart title button. With this new setting set to Yes, Amber will open the video info dialog for the movie or tv show whose title is being shown in the home window. I explain the use in the following post: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid3050781.
Please update, test, and let me know if you find any issues. Thank you.
Regards,
Bart
