hi,

First of all beautiful skin really nice. I'm having  performance problems with the swan skin in kodi 19.1  When I play library or addon stuff it stutters all the time. In kodi 18 there's no problem at all.
There is also no problem at all when I use another skin (titan bingie, cosmic, auramod) in Kodi 19.1 works perfectly
So really strange. My system is Mac osx Montery.

grts.

Can you post a debug log ?
Need to take a look there too.

ref:
First i have to say the suppport  relating to the log is zero, because there are a few banned addons 'involved' on your kodi installation which are
a: generally not supported [https://kodi.wiki/view/Forum%20rules , https://kodi.wiki/view/Official:Forum_ru...acy_Policy]
and b: can be a cause for the issue.

So , get rid of the 'banned stuff' ( didt check all addons in the log ,they are colored  'red colored' in the log you posted . better would be a clean install and than test again (as they can install dependencies which install addons with another dependencies , which generel can be risky for your system and cannot be easyly tracked down ).

Thanks, i took a quick look ( not at home)
at first look the video playback itself looks fine, i assume it could be
the busyloader ( - ffmpeg related issue as .apng is used when player caching )

- till i take a deeper look

you can disable the busy loader :
go to settings -> skinsettings -> player section , on the right side 'video' category you 'll find a setting "disable busy loader in osd" and toggle it 'on'

may give feedback if that fix the issue.

and in addition, as i cannot test.

you can edit dialogbusy.xml

to this

xml:


<window>

<!-- 	busydialog 	WINDOW_DIALOG_BUSY 	10138 	DialogBusy.xml 

ID 	Type 			Description

10 	progress 		Progress bar 



test disable bnusy via include usage

-->

	

	<onload condition="!string.isempty(window(home).property(busyspinner))">SetProperty(busyspinner_2ndload,2,home)</onload>

	<onunload condition="string.isempty(window(home).property(busyspinner)) + !string.isempty(window(home).property(busyspinner_2ndload))">ClearProperty(busyspinner_2ndload,home)</onunload>

	<onunload condition="!string.isempty(window(home).property(busyspinner))">ClearProperty(busyspinner,home)</onunload>

Hallo,

Thanks a lot for taking your time. I did the test with busy loader but nothing changes.
What I've noticed when I play the file with osd player info it stutters when I play the file with overlay info it seems to be normal
I put down a link with screenshots so you can see. I will try to edit dialogbusy.xml this evening.

Hallo,

Sorry to bother you so much
In the mean time I did edit the dialogbusy still stuttering.
I did a fresh clean kodi 18.9 install and your skin plays  perfectly. So the problem appears in 19 only

There is an issue with unicode titles.

[hostile17]

Hopefully not a dumb question as I have only just discovered this great skin.When I press down on the remote while watching a film or tv show up pops the plot which is great but is there a way to change the colour of the text to something more readable ( to me anyway) like white or yellow?

There is an issue with unicode titles.

ah, i check for another font set which supports that and add it...
