Fantastic work Phil - it's really impressive how slick and easy you've made this usually laborious process.

Anymore thoughts on 'white space' removal?
Also, a case-sensitivity check for textures and their respective labels would be useful.
Thanks.

i think whitespaces already get removed, don´t they? too busy with nox 3.0 atm, will extend this tool and fix the bugs in the near future.
aim is to provide one big skin-checking and converting tool. indenting also works btw.
some of the checks work already, some do not. don´t know about the texture check atm..

Hey guys, is there any easy way to convert/adjust an 1080i skin to 720p? The skin Xperience 1080 works 99% good on my resolution 1440x900, but in some viewtype I get wrong position for posters and other items.
Thanks.

that wouldn´t be solved by conveting the skin to 720p. the aspect ratio would still be the same.

hmm so the issue is about 16:9 vs 16:10, no solution in this case?

Phil
link from the first post seems to be broken. How can I DL the most recent version?

Yeah, but what if I don't wanna download source code but binary instead?

Many thanks. As you can see, I'm github illiterate.
Converting skins to 1920x1080... and beyond (4K)... - manfeed - 2016-01-07
Hi Phil! I recently got a 4K tv and could notice that Kodi does a good job rescaling everything. Since I was using a 720p skin I felt curious about how it would look in 1080 and I found your utility... it works like a charm! Many thanks! I converted the skin and I can assure you that everything looks sharper and more beautiful... but now I can't help wondering how it would look in 4K,... could it be possible to add another option to your utility? Maybe converting xml's from 1080 to 4k?
Thanks in advance!
RE: Converting skins to 1920x1080 - Hitcher - 2016-01-07
Just converting the XML's shouldn't make a skin sharper as Kodi coverts them anyway. To make it look better you'll need to redo the textures.
RE: Converting skins to 1920x1080 - phil65 - 2016-01-07
yup, what Hitcher said
Converting to 4k would only be helpful for pixel perfect placement of textures. No difference in image quality.
