I'd like to see details on the all subtitles that are available for each movie as I'm browsing the Recently Added screen, and on the other video info screens.
Is this possible with Estuary?
Right now, I see that it displays details for Genre, Writer, Director, First Aired for each movie as I flip through the Recently Added screen.
Could I change First Aired to Subtitles (e.g., to show something like ENG / JAP, etc.)?
I looked for another skin that would do this, but actually I rather like Estuary and if possible I'd like to just stick with it.
I see an Options button in the lower-left corner of the screen, but I can't figure out how to activate that.
Thanks!
EDIT: I'm willing to tweak XML source, if necessary.

Thanks for the pointer. Unfortunately, I'm a total noob and have no idea how to make use of this information.
Also, it looks like ListItem.SubtitleLanguage only tells me a single subtitle language. OTOH, ListItem.Property(SubtitleLanguage.[n]) seems like a way to read the language(s) multiple subtitles, but how do I determine the value of n? And then, once I have to value of n, how would I expand or iterate to list a variable number of subtitles?

To which file and where should I add this?
Also, if I set it up to list six subtitles, but the movie file contains none, will it still work?

Just thought that would only return the 3 letter language code so you may want to do something like
<label>Sub: $INFO[ListItem.Property(SubtitleLanguage.1)]</label>
so you know it's for a subtitle.

Although I may have misunderstood, what I've posted would add to the flags that appear at the bottom where the flags for resolution, video codec, audio codec etc appear. If you want something more in the Info windows where you've got the details panel on the right hand side then you'll need something different.

As for using F5 to reload, I don't have a keyboard attached to the machine. It's running on a server, controlled by the Kodi remote for iOS.
There's some kind of "custom button" feature in the remote, but it just looks like a way to define shortcuts.

Or do you not have a PC/laptop you could test on before transferring edited skin files to server?
