Michael_Schmitz 7 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Hi, I would like to know how to install the skins in the Emby repository. There are only the same skins as in normal kodi exept the skin emby. How do i find the others? Best Michael
puithove 209 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 You can use any of the normal Kodi skins available in the Kodi repository. There's no need for a special Emby skin. 1
Michael_Schmitz 7 Posted July 27, 2015 Author Posted July 27, 2015 ok but the skins that are shown on http://emby.media/downloads/emby-for-kodi/ How to activate them? Or is this the emby skin?
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 There is currently two Emby skins - titan modded by marcelveldt and arctic zephyr exploded modded by im85288. You can find them inside the emby repository (same place you installed the emby for kodi add-on from, except under the Skins section) For more information, just go into the skin section of this kodi forum (at the top) they each have a thread.

xnappo 1611 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 I believe Arctic Zephyr stable is in the Emby Stable repo - while Titan stable is in the official Kodi repo. 1
StealthDefender 29 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 There are no skins available on stable repo at the moment. Arctic zephir dissapeared from both repos and was dissabled since 4 hours. Something strange is going on since today! Gesendet von meinem SM-T800 mit Tapatalk
im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Almost correct, Arctic Zephyr Exploded (for Kodi 14 or 15) is in the emby stable repo. Arctic Zephyr Exploded Kodi 16 version is in the beta repo along with 1080XF MB3 (both personal mods) and Titan beta version. But you can use any skin at all which allows you much more freedom of choice.

This is not correct so far, i have looked at 3 installations of kodi and there is no arctic zephyr exploded any more in any repo! Gesendet von meinem SM-T800 mit Tapatalk
im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Fair enough I must be imagining that I placed my skins in these repos and that I updated the version in the beta repo last night.
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 It seems stable repo contains Arctic, however it is marked as incompatible with Helix anyway, so it's hidden hence why it appears empty. In beta repo, I see 1080XF, Titan beta and Arctic(marked as incompatible). I had to set it not to hide incompatible add-ons for it to show up in listing.

Yes that makes sense, the one in beta is only compatible with Kodi 16. 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Indeed, the question is why your stable is also not compatible. 1
im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Indeed, the question is why your stable is also not compatible. No idea, it should be compatible with isengard. I made a typo above when I said it is for kodi 14. 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Oh, Isengard only? Not Helix? Ok then that would explain it.
im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Actually it "should" be fine on helix too. The target kodi gui version is 5.3.0 so it should be fine. I have however only tested it on the stable isengard versions and had no incompatible errors. If you get the chance could you turn on debug in kodi and see what exactly it is saying is compatible on helix? If not, no worries 1
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 I'm not exactly sure where to see what's not compatible with Helix after enabling debug. When I select the skin, It just says Add-on is incompatible or has been marked broken in repository. Dependencies not met. 1
StealthDefender 29 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 The question is, why was the skin allways compatible to helix and now not anymore, the stable isengard is not long on the road! 1
im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 I'm not exactly sure where to see what's not compatible with Helix after enabling debug. When I select the skin, It just says Add-on is incompatible or has been marked broken in repository. Dependencies not met. It will be in the Kodi log Anyway don't stress over it. Cest la vie

im85288 1493 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 No it is a nice skin, there's loads out there. Try them all if you like
Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 (edited) @@im85288 Kodi is being a bitch and not mentioning anything in log. I don't know what I should click anyway. It's not like it will let me install an incompatible add-on, it seems. Should I just go ahead and copy the folder in addon to trick it? You think then it will show what's wrong in logs?

Angelblue05 4132 Posted July 27, 2015 Posted July 27, 2015 Oki, give me a quick moment. Will disable the beta repo which I totally forgot to do. My bad.
