- adjusted/added :
    
    • Custom_1105*xml            - dialog to do some view type related setting (video example)
                                - available within media window(videos|music|pictures|games) via menucontrol top icon bar or from skinsettings window -> Library -> View Type Management
                                    - SET view for current content
                                    
                                    - LOCK view for Specific Content
                                            (means: if a viewtype (= view_id)  is locked for a specific content, other viewtypes arent selectable (visible) anymore for that content)
                                                - Currently for windows
                                                    • movies | music | pictures | games
                                                - for content
                                                    •  Container.Content('empty') =  labeled name 'undefined content' | movies | sets | tvshows | seasons | episodes | musicvideos | artists | albums | songs | files | sources | actors | roles | directors | tags | genres | years | studios | countries | playlists | images | games | addons | livetv | mixed | unknown | plugins
                                                    
                                    - DISABLE a view for MEDIA CONTENT WINDOW (videos|music|pictures|games)
                                            - disable a view to dont load its content to further improve performance
                                            - if you're open the view select window from media windwow the current used view cant be disabled
                                            - if a view is actually locked to specific content you're not able to disable the corresponding view type ( this behaviour is intended because prevent undo all locks if click disable by accident is more important than the other way around )

Currently not possible, but i had the optional,or auto disable (dont double same info at screen) in mind.

Hi, i repacked the latest versions (**.1.08~beta) provided by repo

- if someone will or have issue of missiing icons/images it is because i move away from provding some texture by the skin directory itself, it now uses resource addon

 resource.images.skin.swan 

The resource addon will be installed automatically if you force update to current skin version (**.1.08~beta)

I think all are aware about the alpha state, but .... Be aware about.


To resolve

- You must either re set your icons within the corresponding settings

or do it manually by
- close kodi application if active
- go to the user directory and open  (  **\userdata\addon_data\skin.swan\settings.xml)
- rename any matching paths
   • from : special://skin/extras/     to:  resource://resource.images.skin.swan/

- dont rename anything else and save the file , done

Is auto play trailer using YouTube to find trailers? If not, can this be implemented as an option please? Currently this is not working for me, I have an API for YouTube and works within Titan Bingie Mode but not in SWAN.

Keep up the good work.

Thanks.

Auto play trailer is using youtube addon the common way, which means it play via yt if the item provides the path. (either scrapped or set by addon )
( naturally if local trailer file exist it'll play without youtube lookups)

Titan Bingie/Titan Mod using skinhelper.service as a fallback which also playing trailers via youtube using the item
[title name+systemlanguage+trailer] for a lookup and plays it.
currently i like to avoid using the skinhelper addon.

But i think about adding it as an option. ( same for special rating fallback )

Hi Marduk,

Would be great if this can be added please.

Couple of other questions when trying the skin today.

1. Will you add in an icon for posters to show which files are available in local library?

2. Will you add in widgets options per home section?

3. How can I mark files as watched?

4. How to get rid of the small 'grey' lines on posters (surrounding line)?

5. Will you add in pre set colour schemes?

Thanks for the clarity in advance.

Hi Marduk,

Would be great if this can be added please.

Couple of other questions when trying the skin today.

1. Will you add in an icon for posters to show which files are available in local library?

Maybe sometime, if you refer to Library browse of video plugin (e.g. embuary.tmdbhelper)

2. Will you add in widgets options per home section?

Thats on my to-do, still no time to start doing it.

3. How can I mark files as watched?

No other than the usual way, 'w' key or bring up Contenxt Menu ('c' key)

4. How to get rid of the small 'grey' lines on posters (surrounding line)?

you can just avoid it by set
bottom_tag_fo/nf color the same as itemframe_fo/nf

5. Will you add in pre set colour schemes?

Yes , also on to do, but very far away.
I just start if all setting/decision for custom color setting/usage is done.

Hi,

I have the following issue and not sure if this relates to the skin.

In home screen, when the automatic trailer starts ' a la Netflix' the video seems to flash. When I play the trailer in full screen it works fine. With the Netflix style, it flickers a lot.

Hope some one can direct me to a solution for this.

I have Kodi 19.1 on Raspberry Pi4 with LibreElec

Unsure, may i refer to this ( check 'n' test render method settings -> https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid...pid2737010 )

But not sure if you really mean flicker or stutter ?
