Dear Maintainer,

I suppose that one can be forwarded upstream, I will do if needed

Please support by default a SDTV (PAL/NTSC) skin if display is not large enough...

There is a Project Mayem skin
but I am unsure it is supported or can be packaged separately ?

Regards

Dear Philippe,
XBMC from Debian supports all the skins which can be downloaded from
XBMC's skin repository. You can download them at
System->Settings->Appearance->Skin->Skin->Get More... .

The Project Mayhem skin has been replaced by PM3.HD from the same team
but it is optimized for high resolutions.

If you find a suitable skin and you think that is should be packaged in
Debian then please file and RFP bug for it. IMHO there would be little
value in packaging additional skins since they are just XML files with
images.

If you don't find any suitable skin please ask upstream/skin developers
to provide one, I can't help too much in this case.

Cheers,
Balint

Hi Philippe,

The new default skin in Kodi 17 seems to work better on low-res devices.
What do you think? Is the new skin good enough to consider this problem solved?

Cheers,
Balint

It's a bit better but still not acceptable IMHO,
anyway I think this bug can be forwarded upstream,
and eventually closed debian's side.
