It's strongly recommended to install the skin via the "Kodinerds Repo", as this is the only way to guarantee that additional required modules (e.g. the PVR Artwork Module) are also installed. Another advantage is that you get automatic updates when you install an addon from a repository and not from ZIP.
To install the Kodinerds repository visit the page "https://repo.kodinerds.net", download the repository zip (red button) and install it. After that you can install the skin directly from the repository under "Look & Feel", "Skins".
If you want to install the latest version from Git (before this has added to Kodinerds Repo) just download the Addon from here
https://github.com/b-jesch/skin.estuary.modv2/tree/Omega (green Code button), rename the root folder inside the ZIP
from skin.estuary.modv2-Omega to skin.estuary.modv2 and choose 'install from zip' inside Kodi. Renaming
the root folder inside the ZIP needs unpacking/packing the zip in some cases.
If you want to use special flags like HDR or Dolby Vision or special 3D formats you have to name your files with proper tags, preferably before the file extension:
| 3D with stereoscopic detection |
MVC codec | Side by Side | Top and Bottom |
|---|---|---|---|
 |
 |
 |
 |
| no tagging | 3d.mvc | 3d.sbs | 3d.tab |
The Video resolution type recognition by filename for HDR(+)/HLG/Dolby Vision has been removed.
As the setup of animated artwork was done by skinhelper addon (which was removed from skin) the addon "Animated Artwork Module" has now taken the management of those artwork. Animated artwork has some limitations (see Kodi Wiki: https://kodi.wiki/view/Artwork_types#Animated_Artwork). To get this feature work properly, you have to assign a folder within the addon settings, which contains all the artwork. This folder must be a folder of your local filesystem. You can use network share, but this must be mounted to a local mountpoint. Put all your artwork into this folder. Subfolders are allowed (without nesting).
If you navigate in your movie library, you'll have a new entry now to (re)assign animated Artwork in the context menu. The skin supports animated poster only.
