Brill - all fixed again thanks!

In this view how do i go about getting the genres, directors and awards to be listed in plain white text as they're seen below.
Similarly i'm after the same buttons Resume, Play from beginning etc to display to
I think after this i've sussed out everything i need to.

That's a default skin setting

[sunlollyking]

Weird so it doesn't show for me on the spotlight section. What are the settings to alter it back ?

@Achilles I'm wondering too how I can stop this plot filling my screen after a few seconds. Video attached https://photos.app.goo.gl/MSNuD7U1vsXfQ3U87
I've got trailers to start playing after 10 seconds, but I'm fairly sure this is playing quicker than this also.

You should try and remember what settings you are turning on. This is off by default so if you see something that's turned on in the left screen try and turn it off.. If your trailer is set to play at 10 seconds then it's playing in 10 seconds not before. If you think it is playing before get a stopwatch and test again.

Let me see what your spotlight section looks like.

On your previous message thanks! I completely missed the sidebar menu options and must have changed it. I've been tweaking this skin on and off for a long while and only now getting round to nailing it so apologies fixed both my plot and the trailer playing at 5 seconds not 10.

Here is the image of my spotlight settings 


I'm also trying to point submenus at my playlists but as you can see from the image the skin cannot seem to find any playlists despite them being present and also full of media (working) when i enter any of them.

I was able to set up widgets by manually typing in the Kodi command to point at these playlists and that does work however that functionality isn't set up to be used in submenus so i'm a bit stuck.

Hopefully that makes sense and if not a Skin issue i can raise elsewhere.

You should post a full log rather than a snipit of it as per the forum rules.

It's not a skin problem. This has already been written about. Read this.

Hi, don't know if this has been asked before, but I would like to know whether it is possible to change the season order of "Bingie Episodes" view and to change the name of the season. Thanks in advance.

No it's not possible.

Not sure if this has been reported before or if it's just on my end... If I enable auto trailers for main menu and hub, the widgets and hubs on screen refresh automatically and completely change the shown media. It seems that a skin refresh is needed for the trailers to play? So the trailer that is playing even doesn't match the current selected media anymore because it refreshed to a new movie or show. This function isn't usable like this at all for me. Is there a setting to fix this? Thanks again.

Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with the skin, but with Kodi. Kodi refreshes widgets when a video content starts and ends. Given that the trailer is also a video, that's why it's refreshing. The only way to prevent this is the widget doesn't have random sorting.

Hm, that's too bad. I figured out that setting the sorting in the widgets to random "holds them in place" but that doesn't work with hubs. Makes this feature unusable, unfortunately.
