@mjbxx, It's the beta version... Besides fixing stuff I also try out new stuff. Sometimes there's a good addition, sometimes not. That's where the forums are for, to discuss about it. Looking at your screens I see the problem... The lowlist now has the layout of the big list but that isn't always good, I'll review it.
In the meanwhile, please check out the "slim" option in the sideblade menu when on the lowlist view


RE: Titan MediaBrowser skin - crusing - 2015-05-16

I am really loving this skin but I am struggling to make submenus work the way I want. I am using the 3.3.0 version of the skin in Kodi 14.2. I have the main menu set to use the Titan tiles and I am seeing inconsistent behavior with submenus. For instance the built in TV show menu has submenus, but they never display. The Live TV menu displays them when I click on the menu. This is the behavior I am looking for. How can I control this?

Also if you use titan tiles with vertical text submenus and then set them to automatically show, you cant get past the first tile with a submenu and become stuck Bug?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Checked out the slim option and it does clean up the Low List view. But now see an unnatural extended space from the icon to the list items. I realize that this version is Titan Beta and do dislike being overly critical. Its just that the official Titan skin handles the Low List view more suitably at this time.

In skinsettings, go to configure menu shortcuts. Select a shortcut that you want to open a sub menu on click. Press change shortcut. Select custom action. Erase the existing command and fill in: submenu

I'll look into the second comment.

What do others think about it?

I just tried out both and in fact I both like it :-)
As a test I just changed all list views to have the darker area on the info panel (so not on the list itself). Will provide beta 3.3.10 within a few minutes so you can test/look for yourself. If any doubts, I'll change back to the other way around ;-)

No need to change it the other way around, it's okay for me.
For the new low and big list i agree with mjbxx. I also don't really like the the year, rating or icon right before the title, but it's not the end of the world Wink

Haha, no worries, I'll change it back. Don't like it either myself [SMILING FACE WITH OPEN MOUTH]

Beta version 3.3.11 is now uploading to the repo:

- a very large part of the skin is restructured/organized to optimize the code
- new appearance options added, now EVERY part of the skin can be customized in colors, opacity etc.
- Added a color picker to select colors for the appearance options
- finished the list views

A large part of the skin's code base has been touched by the change of the customizable colors. Offcourse I do some testing on my own but I could have missed a part. If you see anything strange or not working, let me know!


RE: Titan MediaBrowser skin - Tennyten - 2015-05-17

Wow... the new color palette left me speechless. Nice job!

Just so I know, do you remember what the original 'light' background overlay was before the change? Thx.


RE: Titan MediaBrowser skin - Simograndi - 2015-05-17

Wow! I have few time now and I'm gonna make a deep test later, anyway I've found a small bug for now: in Extended view the focus color overlaps the infos


RE: Titan MediaBrowser skin - taurus35 - 2015-05-17

Hi Marcel,

When pressing down on the Movie tile & going to "Recently Added" the two latest films I added today are not in the list at all using latest update 3.3.11. The two films are not showing in "Recently Added" when using the movie widget either. Yesterday when using 3.3.10 I added 4 films & 3 were added at the start of the list & one at the very end.
Also today since using 3.3.11 I have had the whole system lock up twice when just moving around the menus & had to pull out the power cable to reboot. On previous releases I have had Kodi reboot itself when moving through menus suddenly but never lock up.
Cheers.

Something went wrong with the default background overlay... I'll update new version later with this fixed.

I don't think missing items from recently added is related to the skin. It's just info that Kodi provides.
The only think you can try to do is disable the "hide watched items from recently added" setting in the skin settings...
If it doesn't work well both with that setting enabled or disabled I think something is wrong with kodi scanning your movies into the library. Maybe you have setup the advanced kodi settings to look at the timestamp on the files itself instead of the date the file has been added to the library ? That would exmplain this behaviour.

Hmmm, the skin should not (and never) be causing any lockups on Kodi. Could you provide me a log from after this behaviour occured ?
