Why is Kodi never patched of bug fixed?

Ive been using xbmc/kodi for like 15 years and never had a problem with any past xbmc version but soon as kodi came out, it's just been this buggy mess. I have a very high end pc, nearly the best you can buy, a year ago it was the best you can buy.. and kodi can't even keep up with typing very well. everytime i tried typing baywatch, it won't recognize my keyboard letter c every single time i type it. if i type on anything else, I have no problem. I've had kodi not close properly countless times where I have to kill it with task manager just to restart it again. I just use kodi for plugins and everytime I try to cancel anything it lags for like 10 seconds for no reason. this happens with kodi on my phone or other devices too so its completely absurd you havent fixed this yet because its existed foreeeeeeeever. FIX YOUR BUGS!!!


why is kodi never patch or** bug fixed?

Help with ZDMC 16.4-13

Hi, I have the same problem, but I already checked that I have the 3.9.4 & 2.15.0 installed.

I have the Zidoo X9S with ZDMC 16.4-13 (KODI). It worked just fine until last weekend. It stopped to retrieve the information from internet. I think it started after I tried to edit the name of a movie title.

If I try to update information from a single movie, when I click to the refresh the movie information, it presents me with the dialog to change the name of the movie (like I selected the option to edit the movie title), and it never leave the dialog even I try to click to finish (I must kill KODI).

I add here the log file: https://file.io/GLkLuc

Thanks in advance.

Hey, little help, I'm sure it's something simple I am missing,
but in the latest version of Phenomenal, the skin isn't loading translation file.

debug log lines:

link to PO:
https://github.com/tomer953/skin.phenome...strings.po

little history:
in a recent update i did, BigNoid told me to remove the empty strings in lines 8-9, which was not a good idea since Kodi need them,
so I think he add them back manually, then I added it to the github as well,
then in the next update I pushed my files - Kodi isn't load them...

what i'm missing?
Confused

Separate "Extract thumbnail and video information" settings.

Hello,

I'm using libraries over WAN and caching thumbnails uses ridiculous amount of bandwidth. It also slows down operation by a lot.
This is also the case for slower hardware such as Raspberry Pi even on LAN.

I've disabled "Extract thumbnail and video information" for now, but I would like to keep "extract video information" enabled.

I found discussions regarding this dating back to last decade and XBMC team members even back then stated that it would be preferable to have the 2 settings separate.

I am using Kodi 17.3. Why is this happening? Is there any way to fix this?

in which XML and possible where are the code to change.

Menu link to go direct to list / poster of the the list, bypassing picking genre etc... like tv shows and movies.

Also looking for the code to change the widgets to full poster size as the tv shows and movies. I've already using a custom scraper to pull music video data, as the stock one doesn't find them.

Lastly, add list view to music videos. Seem to have some custom views just for that over the others.

Hi all,

I am new to Kodi and Next PVR currently have it set up and testing with my wife Smile

I have run some TV shows to record each episode however my local disk is quickly filling up.

Coming from WMC it was able to delete the oldest episodes (some basic retention policy)

Is there a way for Next PVR or Kodi to do this? can this be configured globally or is it per recording?

Thanks!

VDR Issues

June 14, 2017, 4:52 am

Dear all,

I have installed Openelec 8.0.4 incl. Kodi 17.3 on my RPI3 and installed VDR backend, frontend and activated several plugins (e.g. live, streamdev, egp).

Now what I can do is watching TV via the Kodi frontend but what I cannot do is the following:

1. Changing channel sorting via Kodi frontend; whenever I am saving all my changes done, there is a progress bar, no error. But when I then switch over to TV still the same order of channels appear. It is purely not saving my changes. Do you have any recommendation how to change the channel order instead?

2. I have installed iVDRclient on my iPhone because I wanted to stream live TV to my mobile. I can connect and see the channels including EPG, but when I start streaming regardless which channel I get the following error message: "Request for stream timed out. Access not possible. mkdir: can't create directory '/home': read-only file system." I am not even sure which home directory is meant? Is it from the mobile phone for intermediate storage of stream data or is it from the RPI3 where VDR backend is running?

3. If I want to record a TV movie I can select for recording via iVDRclient and what I see after the event is that there is a file, of very low size, under "/storage/videos" (I guess this is the request of recording and not the movie payload itself); furthermore I do not see and folder like "/storage/videos/recordings"?! Also via the app I cannot see any finished recordings.

Do you have any ideas on these topics? Maybe you also have a recommendation for reading so that I can help myself. Unfortunately I couldnt' find a lot of material for my problems.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Deinterlacing with Fire TV (gen 1)

June 14, 2017, 5:16 am

I've read a bunch of threads related to these issues so I apologize because I'm sure the answer is out there, I just can't seem to find it or figure out exactly what I need to do.

Issue is this: when watching live TV, non-HD broadcasts are interlaced. Normally, the "deinterlace" setting is disabled. This also happens when playing DVD rips, but I can just deinterlace when transcoding so I never worried about it before.

After research I realized I can disable both hardware acceleration settings and the "deinterlace" setting appears and generally seems to work automatically when watching live TV. The MPEG2 streams looks prettty good. But then h.264 video no longer plays correctly, I guess because Fire TV isn't fast enough. So I have to manually change the settings anytime I go back and forth.

So what I really need is the ability to disable hardware decoding *only* for MPEG2. It seems like this is possible, but definitely not configurable from the Kodi UI, and I couldn't find an example configuration change to make. Could someone point me to a resource to get this configured correctly? Thank you!

Requests for support without information

There are a ton of posts like his one: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=316492 . The poster is either a troll or they are using minimum effort to report a problem hoping that someone will either come back with a fix, or will set out in detail what is needed saving them the time to find out for themselves.

Whichever is the case, that's a flagrant abuse of people's time and is directing effort away from people genuinely trying to provide the information needed to solve their problem.

Where there's a reference or implication of a banned add-on, the moderators respond with something like this: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=316500 or the terser message at the end of this thread: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=316463 and the thread is moved to 'Garbage and Rule Violation'.

My suggestion is to create a forum called 'Insufficient information' or similar and that offending posts are moved directly there with a (copy-and-paste) post linking to the wiki article(s) explaining what they need to do and - at the same time - reminding people about banned add-ons. Like the 'Garbage' forum, the thread should - in my view - be closed automatically.

We could, of course, use the existing 'Garbage' forum, but I think that's a bit extreme for someone that might have a genuine problem.

Just a thought and apologies if it's been discussed before. I had a good look around and did some searching but didn't find anything.

Mark as watched/Mark as unwatched issue outside of library

Hi,

Just got a llittle issue with latest kodi 18 nightly and mark as watched/mark as unwatched

First, I want to say that it works in library mode. The issue is outside of the library mode

As you can see on this screenshot, I got an "in progress file":

[Image: 170614032419933963.png]

Then i use the context menu to mark it as watched:

[Image: 170614032419451998.png]

But the file is still shown as "in progress":

[Image: 170614032420124630.png]

It come to my mind that I just have to try again but this time I only have "mark as unwatched" that indicate that the file IS mark as watched:

[Image: 170614032419613398.png]

So I try mark as unwatched but that does not seem to work either:

[Image: 170614032420468252.png]

The file is still shown as "in progress"

Here is the log file when i made all those test: https://pastebin.com/FTpdmiJy

Do not know if it is a kodi issue or an estuary issue so feel free to move this thread if needed
