Hello every one, Long time user of kodi i'm looking for a box to replace my dune bdprime 3.0. I'm tired of using yadis to keep my interface in sync with my database. The dune is plugged in the living room on my main tv and i want to replace it. I hav...

hi again @jingai

Very much loving the work going in to the new skin, been very impressed with how smooth it is and the extra functions you are building in. I have been pondering on a couple of bits and wondering if I could make a couple cheeky requests for your consideration.

Atmos / DTS-X codec flag

Within the skin there are various area where codec flags are displayed.. would it be possible to add a simple filnename variable along the lines of .atmos. and .dtsx to allow for those codecs flags to be displayed. Kodi doesn't recongnise them natively as they are simple TrueHD or DTS-HD tracks with additional meta data.

I have used this in the past...

<variable name="MediaFlag_AudioCodec">
<value condition="IsEmpty(ListItem.AudioCodec)">$INFO[VideoPlayer.AudioCodec,flags/AudioCodec/,.png]</value>
<value condition="SubString(ListItem.Filenameandpath,.atmos.)">flags/audiocodec/atmos.png</value>
<value condition="SubString(ListItem.Filenameandpath,.dtsx.)">flags/audiocodec/dtsx.png</value>
<value>$INFO[ListItem.AudioCodec,flags/AudioCodec/,.png]</value>
</variable>

Then added .atmos or .dtsx to the filepath in the same way you would 3D etc.

Along the same would be the 3D flag.. am struggling myself with this one and am wondering if its just a simple case of renaming all my files... and adding 3D at the end.. am not a big fan of asking for something to be added for the sake of it! The only way I could think of is to use a resolution variable and add a additional flag.

Hi @jingai am not sure the best way to get this to you... but... these are the changes required for animated wallpaper support. I have tested this on Kodi 17 Beta 1 and skin build Metropolis 3.4.0rc2. I have only added it to the List Viewtype as am not sure it fits any where else... will leave that to your decision.

Can any one advise. I currently have one fire stick connected to our bed room TV. How ever, the person that rents the spare room has asked the following: Can more than 1 fire stick be connected to the wifi IP address? Can he use it plugged directly...

Ignore my question
