Thanks for your quick response Helly.
I am sorry but I couldn't get it on how to use the skin setting converter mate. I'm using a Mac and not to sure on how to run/install the python SkinSettingsConverter first.

I have copied the guisettings.xml to a safe location and upgrade to kodi Jarvis but what exactly do I do now?
Any chance to get screen shots with the next steps to follow, please?
I would really appreciate it mate.

Thanks for your time and consideration Helly.

Hi,

I've made a few screenshots, but it shouldn't be that hard. I'm running linux instead of a Mac, but the behavior should be the same.

I copied guisettings.xml and SkinSettingsConverter to a safe location.



Then I opened a terminal and went to that location.
Afterwards I ran the following command (In linux you may omit python in front of the command. I don't know for Mac):



Options:
-s skin.xonfluence (the name of the skin, should also work for other skins, defaults to skin.xonfluence if omitted)
-g ./guisettings.xml (location of guisettings.xml (./ is this folder), defaults to the guisettings location in the kodi folder)
-d ./settings.xml (location to store settings.xml (./ is this folder), defaults to the addon folder, but will delete the current settings.xml without warning. That happened to me while testing the script)

After pressing enter, you see dots for all settings that are converted.



When you browse your folder contents, you see the settings.xml file appeared.



I would make a backup of the default settings.xml file that is located in
[kodifolder]/userdata/addon_Data/skin.xonfluence/settings.xml
[kodifolder] is your default kodifolder (e.g. /home/[username]/.kodi for linux and /Users/[username]/Library/Application Support/Kodi/ for Mac)

Copy your settings.xml to this location and start kodi. Your settings should now be copied to the Jarvis Xonfluence skin. Of course you need to setup new functionality (after 3.1.6) yourself if you like to, but the skin should behave similar to the skin you were using in Isengard.

Hope this helps. If not, please let me know.

Helly.
