Thanks :)

-> Have you tried resetting the main  menu?

-> Have you updated to the latest Emby for Kodi beta?

-> Please go to the xml directory of the skin. Inside of it you will find a file called "custom_text.xml". Open it in a text editor of your choice and replace the "false" in the header part with "true" and save. After that reload the skin and create a screenshot of the now visible overlay. To get rid of that overlay you have to revert your change and reload the skin again.

Just dropping you a congrats.  This skin is absolutely great - and the EmbyCon integration is awesome.

 

My family has been using Aeon Nox for 10+ years, and I have now switched them over :)

It took some time for you to realise! Yes he’s done an awesome job especially with the EmbyCon integration :)

:D I have been playing with it for a long time, switching things on the family has to be done with extreme caution!

I'm using the "eat or die" method. But I guess I only have luck and my girls are just technical open minded ;)

Hello sualfred,

 

> I tried to reset the main menu many times, and Emby database reset 2 times, no luck  :-( 

 

> I have Emby for Kodi 3.1.17a.  Emby Server is 3.5.0.0  (last Mono version i could find here :  https://github.com/MediaBrowser/Emby/releases, for now there's no new Emby.Mono release).

(i think it began with one of the last updates)

 

> i couldn't find any "custom_text.xml" or xml directory  (Emby in Kodi, or on LibreELEC OS), where should it be located ?

 

Best regards,

So you still see Mixed, Mixed instead of Mixed (movies), Mixed (tvshows) and still can't access? I fixed it, I am sure of it because I had your issue and it's fixed for me. Do you have auto update on maybe and so it re-downloaded the repo version overwriting the custom build? Anyway, I will push a new build to repo today, then you can confirm.

It's in /storage/.kodi/addons/skin.embuary-leia/xml

It's a hidden folder and you can access it via sftp.

Hello sualfred, please find attached a screenshot with custom_test.xml enabled.

 

Best regards

As I thought.

 

@@Angelblue05

Mixed content has to be removed from wnodes. It's not supported by the skin and I won't add it because it's impossible for me to implement it correctly.

But for some reasons the artwork values aren't filled for him.

No? Mixed is Mixed (movies) and Mixed (tvshows) which are plain old movie type node and tv show node. It's just there was a typo in the code that was sending the wrong information when creating the wnode for them.

3.1.18a should be there shortly.

The reason why the action is not working is because the type is "mixed". 

 

type:

movies -> use movie widgets and hub

tvshows -> use tvshow widgets and hub

homevideos -> activate picutre window with provided path

books -> activate music window with provided path

mixed -> nothing is going to happen

<!-- emby overrides -->
	<override action="emby0">
		<condition>String.IsEqual(Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.type),tvshows) | String.IsEqual(Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.type),movies)</condition>
		<action>SetProperty(EmbyHubNr,0,home)</action>
		<action>ActivateWindow(1130)</action>
	</override>
	<override action="emby0">
		<condition>String.IsEqual(Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.type),homevideos)</condition>
		<action>ActivateWindow(pictures,$INFO[Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.content)],return)</action>
	</override>
	<override action="emby0">
		<condition>String.Contains(Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.type),books)</condition>
		<action>ActivateWindow(music,$INFO[Window(home).Property(emby.wnodes.0.content)],return)</action>
	</override>

No. The reason it was not working is because it was not sending the right information when creating the wnode. It was sending type mixed, instead of type movie and tvshow. You don't need to change anything, 3.1.18a fixes this issue.

Thanks a lot

I know you are going option-lite - so I understand if you say no, but any chance of making:

Embuary_HeaderBar.xml
<param name="auto_hide">true</param>

An option?  We use Kodi as our clock :)

This would cause overlapping issues in a lot of scenarios.

You always can access the headerbar if you map a button on your remote to trigger the menucontrol. On a keyboard it's the letter "m".

Another option is that I'll add a clock to the shutdown menu (letter "s" on the keyboard).

 

Edit:

Another idea -> https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07GQ56PXJ/ref=s9_acsd_top_hd_bw_bFfbr_cr_x__w?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-4&pf_rd_r=B2MYAVPJRX28C2803WA2&pf_rd_r=B2MYAVPJRX28C2803WA2&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=53232eb1-367e-502a-b63e-c804e5bf2d86&pf_rd_p=53232eb1-367e-502a-b63e-c804e5bf2d86&pf_rd_i=3734871

 

Just kidding  ;)

@saulfred given any thought to the alphabet shortcut in slide view? I've got a metric boatload of kids/adult movies (800+) and scrolling while quick still takes a long time to get to the W's or Y's (since the scroll doesn't wrap left/right or up/down.) I'd like to be able to jump to a letter (ideally) and I know you said it's a design issue but was wondering if you had any new thoughts on implementation?

Still no idea where to place it, sorry. 

 

Any possibility of making it a toggable option? I know it doesn't fit the Emby design but having it show up at the top/bottom bar would be handy; disabled by default. Any hard & fast rule that the skin has to absolutely follow the flow of Emby? :) (have to try...)
