Solid color in kodi menu

siz · 14. August 2016

Hey,

It would be nice to have a setting for solid color in kodi menu, when grabMenu is off.

Watching video in the dark for best experience is nice, but a light in menus would help with the mood and eyes

Sorry if this feature exists, can't seem to find it. Btw awesome job

Set background-effect to Stativ color.

Code

/// Initial Effect sets a "booteffect" or "color" (foreground-effect) and optional set a "effect" or "color" during inactive grabbers and network receivers (background-effect)
    ///  * background-effect      : 2 options: set a effect (example: ["Rainbow swirl fast"]) or set a color (RGB) (example: [255,134,0])
    ///  * background-effect-args : Set optional effect arguments (Have a look at the select effect to get the possible values), define it only when needed
    ///  * foreground-effect      : 2 options: set a effect (example: ["Rainbow swirl fast"]) or set a color (RGB) (example: [255,134,0])
    ///  * foreground-effect-args : Set optional effect arguments (Have a look at the select effect to get the possible values), define it only when needed
    ///  * foreground-duration_ms : The duration of the selected foreground-effect or color (0=endless)
    ///                       HINT: "foreground-effect" starts always with priority 0, so it blocks all remotes and grabbers if the loop is endless
    ///                       HINT: Set a empty value if you want to disable a component (example: "")

Ok, will try it

Does not work for me. The latest HyperCon is from 11 of June and I installed hyperion using the install button, while the merge with the background-effect is from 20 June. Do I need to manually update hyperion to get intialEffect to work?

ohhh. This feature is only available on hyperion.ng. Can you post your hyperion config file?

I tried this instead of bootsequence:

Code

"initialEffect" :
    {
        "background-effect" : [136, 97, 50 ],
        "foreground-effect" : "Rainbow swirl fast",
        "foreground-duration_ms" : 3000
    },

sorry. initialEffect is only available in hyperion.ng. please compile it yourself or ask brindosch for compiled version. He can send it to you if you can not compile.

FYI in the old version with bootSequence, you can actually use static color and the swirl background at the same time. On hyperion startup it will swirl and change to static color, and when grabMenu = false, it will switch back to the static color when you have stopped watching a video

Edit: but if u use the Hyperion remote, or set a color using Hypercon and reset it, it will stop showing the static color! No worries, will wait until the next release or compile it

Jetzt mitmachen!
