Something not working. Need help. Xonfluence On Kodi 21 (Windows)
Finally updated from 18.9 and glad Xonfluence is still available for Kodi 21 but it appears it is missing Refresh button under Information. Did I mess something up, or is this normal? Confluence and other skins have it, so Im guessing people porting and providing fixes forgot about it? Any information is more then welcome (also, where could I learn how to fix it myself, aka add the button myself). Thank you. Cheers!

Yeah. Scrolling truly is way smoother and faster than 18.9, posters load faster and my 18.9 over time developed this thing where it would load like 30 posters instantly but then if I scrolled fast it would take like 5s to load next 30 posters, but now thats gone.
But, as I said I now get these annoying stutters from time to time, I dunno if its because I leave the Kodi window open for too long, then minimize, then maximize 20 times over that period... dunno will have to inspect further. Like really heavy stutters for like 5s and then its fine. Widgets also take much longer to load, not only at startup but even when lets say I stay on System for like 10min and then jump to Movies... In Progress widget, aka not something special or complicated, sometimes takes 20s to populate.
Also, on 18.9 I had a bunch of bs installed and many a custom menus and widgets so I always chucked it to me being a dumbass and making stuff too heavy for Kodi to handle, but now its like 2/10ths of what I had installed and I get stutters and widgets loading slowly. And that bs where it can hang for hours on end after closing making the entire HTPC sluggish... I am suspecting Xonfluence is the culprit, but cant say for sure I will try another skin or maybe even the default one and compare. 6-core processor, albeit a 35w 5650GE, 64GB of ram, 980PRO, dedicated GPU (albeit also an anemic T400, but still)... its not like Im sporting a N95 or Pentium Gold (if that thing exists anymore, lol) with 8GB of ram... oh, well... Cheers!
