TV Next Up Info? Also, TV show Season & Episode OSD Info

[mgonzales71]

1)

what happened to the TV Next Up info that used to be displayed in the footer, etc?

shows used to say - new, returning, ended, etc - that seems to be gone now.

2) Did the OSD Info display use to show the TV show Season and Episode Info? Oddly - it seems to be gone or did I imagine that?

1) It shows the status if the show is not in progress, is shows the next episode date if the show is in progress. Always been that way ;-)

2) I can't remember either. I haven't changed it so maybe it's your imagination ?

Hi Marcel...

Thanks for the reply. wanted to follow back up and add a couple other items as an FYI before I forget.

1) Well If I understand correctly this should show something (the show is in progress) but it is blank - don't think this is now an option in settings is it?

2) I think the Season and Episode info used to be displayed in the Info OSD - I can't find a screenshot but an old PR makes me belive it was - https://github.com/marcelveldt/skin.titan/pull/55

think it would be nice to have either in OSD Info or plot Info? idk - what do you think?

3) Was entering / leaving weather menu/tile and kodi locked up. only thing I saw in the log around the time was:

12:27:05 T:12032 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting $INCLUDE[WeatherWidget] 12:27:05 T:12032 ERROR: Previous line repeats 2 times.

tried to reproduce crash - so far just the error is reproducable

4) oh and speaking of crashes - durring the last few updates of the skin and helper service the helper script doesn't always stop (so it can be updated) - and twice this crashed Kodi while the skin was being updated and left the skin in a corrupt state - thankfully I take backups.

have you seen this happen ever?

possibly related to the weatherWidget error above - saw this also in logs:

16:05:36 T:6828 ERROR: XFILE::CDirectory::GetDirectory - Error getting $INCLUDE[SystemInfoWidget] 16:05:36 T:9356 ERROR: Previous line repeats 2 times.

Marcel,

Wanted to follow up with the case of the missing tv next aired info that used to be in the footer.

grabed a copy of the skin and skin helper from git - both dated around Dec 20th 2015.

As you can see - the skin used to display the following next aired info of tv shows in the footer when a tv show was highlighted:

the next date it airs, a returning show, a new show, or an ended show.

photos attached below showing what seems to be now missing in the skin.

I am not sure when this stopped working/was changed or if now another skin setting affects this being displayed or ??

Thanks

Mario
