I have a rpi 2 osmc with the latest update
I want to change the custom background color
but it does work
when I activate the option to change the background color I get a totally transparent background ( I installed the necessary extensions )
impossible to choose a color , am I the only one to have trouble ?

I have exactly the same problem on RPi 3 and this really makes me mad! This background color is also used in some parts of OSMC skin, so when I change it to custom color, not only menus shows no color tint but also fanart images in TV Shows category etc.
hi!
I found a solution, you download GitHub - osmc/skin.osmc
once download, unzip ( skin.osmc-master.zip )
and rename folder ( skin.osmc ) and zip folder ( skin.osmc.zip ) and install in kodi
it worked perfectly for me after I’m not sure if this can create problems in future updates
It’s probably some corrupted files within the skin. It’s not widespread and most users don’t have these problems. If you can solve the issue by copying the contents of the skin repo over the existing skin/reinstalling it from a zip, that’s perfect Just keep in mind that the skin repo might be in a newer state than the skin folder on your OSMC system.
Just a hint: You can rename the folder inside the zip file as well. No need for unzipping and repacking The renaming is essential though. Otherwise you’ll install the OSMC skin a second time as a secondary skin. If named properly (skin.osmc), it’ll be treated as an update of the existing system skin.
