Even my wife says wow and she doenst want to use the used confluence anymore. But there is a but: Due to the fact that she is using it as the normal radio in the mornig we stept into a little problem. In the confluence mode it is possible to start a playlist automaticaly when xbmc is turned on. In the Titan skin I can't find this option. In the confluence it is activated anyway so it should start so using Titan, but as I said...not running. Now she went back to confluence. Is there a way to fix this or did I miss something?

Thanks for help!

I've got the tiles working with PleXBMC, which is great. Are there any plans to get artwork working for plexmbc tiles?

4 columns and 2 rows is very limiting when you have hundreds of movies. In MediaBrowser classic you can increase /decrease the size of the posters. Something like 5 columns and 3 rows would be the minimum I'd like to see. Is there an option that I am missing in XBMC?


EDIT: Was able to do this myself by editing View_59_BigPanelDetails.xml and IncludesViews.xml! I was able to get 6 columns and 3 rows. So happy
EDIT2: Some small problems - watched indicator doesn't align but it's ok for now

Something to take up with that scripts author, possibly

Thanks again, good to hear that the issues are resolved for the skinshortcuts script.
Apparently it's not fixed for skinwidgets so time for a workaround again :-)
I hope members of the Kodi Team see this message as the skinwidgets script is (as I recall) made by the Kodi team...

Are the widgets supposed to be selectable at all? i.e to play titles directly from the home menu as I can't seem to select/play any item on the widgets at all. I know this feature works in other skins but doesn't seem to work on this one for me anyway. I've had a look in the debug log and have found this small section that seems correspond to the issue

Code:

So am I doing anything wrong or is it not supposed to work like that? If it helps I'm running the 1st beta of Helix and the latest version of this skin from the Kodi repository.

Okay, forget my previous reply :-)

As of changes in Kodi Helix some addons cannot be launched directly which is the problem you describe.

For now I have a workaround for you, I think this will be addressed soon by either the Kodi Team or the addon developers..

1. Open up your Kodi addons folder (in windows this is c:\users\username\appdata\roaming\kodi\addons)
2. Open up the folder for he skinwidgets script --> service.skin.widgets
3. Open addon.xml in a text editor
4. You have to add an extra extension point for the addon, add this under the existing extension point:

<extension point="xbmc.python.script" library="default.py" />

The result should look like this:

</requires>
<extension point="xbmc.service" library="default.py" start="login"/>
<extension point="xbmc.python.script" library="default.py" />
<extension point="xbmc.addon.metadata">


5. restart Kodi and it should work!

Tested it on my system and the workaround works as intended

It's available in the new beta version --> version 2.1.17 for gotham and 3.1.17 for helix.
You can get the beta versions by installing the xbmb3c repo:
