Awesome done update dramacool with new skin. Works well

Arctic Horizon 2 more awesome, but only on windows it stays stable, other platform will cause frequent crashing for Kodi 20.

Arctic Horizon II v 0.8.10


The skin is getting better everyday, the update is not really straight forward, you must update the infotagger to version 0.0.5 then only it wont come up error.

Tamil, Hindi, Thai, Chinese Characters multifont support for Arctic Horizon 2
The dev (jurialmunkey) declined my request to have support tamil/hindi/thai font for 1.4 billion indians and 75million Thais. So i fixed for them:-

This will replace the regular and bold roboto font which is being used widely in this skin. It doesnt affect so much on the overall outlook of the skin. Without this font, foreign text especially EPG Guide for IPTV will be either empty or represented by weird symbols. Ok this is what you have to do:-

1. Delete* the roboto/noto bold and regular (all highlighted in blue) *If you cannot delete font, you can cut and paste them somewhere else

user posted image
You must delete these fonts else the new font which you want to introduce will be ignored thus wont work.

2. Download this replacement font https://sourceforge.net/projects/allfonts/f...NI.TTF/download

3. Rename it to arial.tff

4. Copy into put into the same folder

\.kodi\addons\skin.arctic.horizon.2\fonts

5. Fix line spacing
Cosmetic fix for plot box truncated font
user posted image
Find Font.xml in 1080i folder and replace anyline spacing with 1.14 to 1.00.
user posted image
Save it. Done

6. Set the default font in Interface Settings

NOTE: Everytime AH2 has update with new version, all the above need to be redo. So it will be wise if you save some of the files you modified to special folder for convinience.

Result:-

Another pro tips, if you find any movie is not being scrapped into the library and you manually wanted to do it but surprising failed. Instead of pop-up windows to rename the file with easier name for kodi to scrap, it states "No information found!" what?

user posted image

The culprit is this toggle that you checked. Please uncheck it and redo the scrapping.
user posted image

It's common mistake and solution given in https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=336969, yes after days wasting time looking for the solution. I almost delete and install kodi again.
QUOTE
v18 introduced reading Video file Tags. If your files are correctly named but refuse to scrape, go to Settings>Media Settings>Videos and ensure the setting Use video tags is disabled (you may need to change your settings level to see it)

You wont be having this issue if you take from https://cywteow.github.io/repo/

I think cyteow forked it from groggyegg and fixed the problem.

both are working fine.

NOTE: I think you tried to play by cut and paste the url that i have hash out #
When i mentioned visualize the radio station, all the hash-out (#) are not intended to be played or visualized. There just there as backup. Kodi will bypass them. I just leave it there incase some channel operators astro for example decided not to have youtube live for that particular channel. It happened couple of times with Raaga, MyFM etc. When that happen, just remove the hash-out and back to the original non visual url, provided they're still working. Case-in-point for zayan and lite those original url are no longer working but the visual one are still do

You can widgetize their content into different sections of your skin.

Last but not least, is it possible to put dramacool on home screen? Everytime i go to movies, it always go to file manager.

Elementum setup post #5
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...ost&p=104995933

Any addon can be widgetized, you dont need addons to be on home screen but their content instead.

The skin developers intention is hide the addons and show only its content => Widgetize.

Everytime you want to install elementum into any device please choose All-in-One. The script will know which version is suitable for it.

Try uncheck RARBG, and check few reliable one like PB, 1337x 7 YTS

QUOTE(arvind13 @ Jun 20 2023, 04:06 PM)
I am facing this as well... I think could be due to RABG website has been shutdown thus no more streaming links...  Majority of the links in Elementum add-on comes from RARBG.. Perhaps you can try using other torrent providers like YTS, The Pirate Bay...etc..  If that fails then gotta start considering paid service like Real Debrid linked with those paid kodi add-ons like The Crew, Seren, Venom... etc.
*
Real Debrid is also a torrent service but instead of p2p they cache those movies in their server. Still not legit IMO, of course they're fast and they added free VPN as well, since some countries their government really track and penalize citizen who torrent.

ahh, I see. I thought my configuration is incorrect. so means it have a view limit on every channel?

Kodi is still lacklustre in handling IPTV compare to tivimate and OTT player especially when modern providers like astro or unifi or mnc (indon) or starhub (sg) are implementing mpeg-dash format (mpd)where it could stream to thousand of people without lagging. Kodi claimed it also play mpd but i dont see it actually could play them especially when provider also implementing licensing such as clearkey or widevine. I already requested this feature to the dev but they replied it's not a priority.

Personally i only use kodi for everything else except for IPTV due to the aforementioned reason. I use OTT for IPTV

Note that KODI do support MPD, just not the clearkey json method (which is actually a loophole on Google's part). In a way by not supporting that, it's actually work as intended
*
Kodi claimed they do support those, but fail when playing these license free, no clearky no wivevine mpd streams from RTM i.e

tv1: https://d25tgymtnqzu8s.cloudfront.net/smil:tv1/manifest.mpd
tv2: https://d25tgymtnqzu8s.cloudfront.net/smil:tv2/manifest.mpd

Only OTT can play those, even VLC fail to play.

If want kodi to play them need to find the alternative streams in m3u8
