Kodi 18 Voice Search

October 3, 2018, 11:35 pm

I have Kodi 18 setup and I can use voice search which will search for films/tv shows that are in my library and I have also have various parts of my library setup as channels on the Nvidia Shield home screen,

Is there a way to use voice search or setup channels for content that is not in my library? So, for example, Kodi add-ons have a 'New Movies' Section, could you setup a channel that shows the content of this section and auto-updates, rather than me having to manually add films to my library?

Could you also use voice search to find any content, even if it's not in my library?

Xbox & Audio

I'm guessing the answer to this question will be no, but can't hurt to ask.

I have my Xbox connected to an AVR, and I have the audio output set to bitstream over HDMI with DTS as the output. Works great for games, but when I want to watch something with Kodi or Netflix, and the source audio is stereo, the Xbox is clearly just sending silence over the other channels. With Kodi I can have it upmix stereo content, but then with Netflix I'm screwed, and if I set the audio output to stereo I of course lose out on the professionally mixed surround sound audio. So is there any way around this that doesn't involve changing the settings every time?

I have a Minix Neo U9H box running LE Kodi 17.6. I installed TVHeadend from the LE repository, but it doesn't recognise the tuners from my WMC setup (Leadtek Winfast DTV Dongle Dual).
Could someone please recommend a brand of USB tuners that TVH will recognise. (I live in Australia)

Movie Sets or Collections

Hello, when in the Showcase view, the movie sets are showing the wrong cover - for example it will show part 2 in the collection as the cover for the set. Can I edit which movie in the set is used as the cover for the set or just set it to always use the cover for part 1 in the set which is what I'd want anyway ?

Thank you

RFC: Using Genre Description and also Colours from Genre Type for EPG entries

Hi,

The genre types are preset to DVB standards which makes perfect sense. However in cases when you can't set genre type you can set a description but this won't have an effect on the colour of the EPG entry. Most of my genre data bears little resemblance to the DVB standards.

Currently you set genreType to EPG_GENRE_USE_STRING to use the description. If you were to set genreSubType to EPG_GENRE_USE_STRING this could mean use the colour from genreType and the description for the text. 

Thoughts?

How Do I Display Pictures?

I am a new Kodi user, and I just installed it on both my PC and my Firestick. I have successfully linked the two using UPnP/DLNA - the Kodi desktop shows up on the Kodi app on the Firestick. I was not asked to set up or enter any passwords, so I am assuming the link is actually working.

At the moment, all I want to do is run a picture slideshow. I have loaded the appropriate library on the PC app and all images are shown on the carousel within that. However, when I go to the Pictures tab on the Firestick, I do not see the folder on the PC (called lib6, for what it's worth), but just Video Library and Music library. I have not defined these, so I assume they're part of the Kodi installation. They are apparently empty anyway.

I expected to see "Pictures library" or something similar. Should I?

Could someone point me to a definitive link that explains what I'm missing? I HAVE searched, but the only relevant thread doesn't have an answer woven in with the usual forum-style "banter" anyone who dares to have a problem usually encounters.

At this stage, I am not considering any sort of error, and freely admit without anyone having to point it out to me that I might be doing something wrong, or that I'm an idiot, a buffoon, and so on.

TIA

PVR Backend software recommandations?

Hello!

I'm sure this is a common question, sorry about that. I've read a lot about it and I'm still not sure about which way to go since there are many options.

I'm looking into using Kodi (on Windows 10 HTPCs) with some PVR backend software (on a Windows 10 "home server" or in a headless Linux VM) to replace my existing power hungry HTPC running Windows 7 and WMC. Actually, I've got two HTPCs and wants my recordings to be synced on both. The tunners are two HDHomeRun Connect, connected to an antenna on my roof.

What would be the best software these days that I could just set and forget?

As of right now I'm specifically looking at NextPVR and TVheadend but I'm not quite sure which one to pick. I'm open to other suggestions if there are really better alternatives as well.

For the EPG, I planned to use Schedules Direct.

(I did consider Plex Pass and SiliconDust DVR Service but these two options are more expansive than going with a free software with paid EPG)

Thank you

Moviess video scraper

October 4, 2018, 12:12 pm

Hello,
In one of the recent version (can't point which), Kodi has fail to scrap video file info or maybe became more strict with certain file name conventions/formats?
I have files in my "older" video collection that were scanned with success before.
Some file name examples:
  • Ai_1080p
  • Austin_Powers_in_Goldmember_2002_m720p_BDRip_AAC_x264-m4c14k_Uploaded.By.KizMark
  • Annie Hall
  • alice in wonderland 1080
  • Airplane.1980.m-720p.ManO.-.Aftms
  • Beetlejuice.1988.720p.BluRay.DTS.x264-ESiR

I checked with wiki here and here, but couldn't make much sense from this. I remember that Kodi used to be "smart" enough to parse the correct data.
Here is relevant part from the log: https://paste.kodi.tv/simaquhupa.kodi
I can see the HTTP request to the API and the response with cURL. I tried it myself and found that the file with different name format (like after removing video info and other release group stuff) will provide a valid JSON document with the movie information.

Any idea what can I do to solve this or why Kodi's video scrap system has changed?

I have Kodi installed on Ubuntu and everytime it starts up the program is slightly off centered to the right of the screen and in order to center it I have to unplug and replug the HDMI cable back into the port again.

I've tried both nightly and stable versions and this occurs on both of them.  This only occurs in Kodi and does not occur in Ubuntu or anywhere else.

Scraping issue - MySQL Data Type is too restrictive

October 4, 2018, 2:52 pm

I'm not sure if this warrants a full Bug Report, so I'd like to discuss what I've found. (Similar to this thread)

During a recent update to my library, I came across a movie that just would not scan (for posterity's sake, Star Wars: The Force Awakens). I tried multiple Add-Ons (and different settings for each). No dice.

After digging through the logs, I discovered the issue seemed to be caused by a value that had exceeded its intended column's limitations (myvideos107 -> movies -> c08).

The default "TEXT" Data Type limited the input to 65,535 (if this source is correct) characters, well under the size of the string (83,142 characters). Changing the Data Type to "MEDIUMTEXT" allowed the movie to be added as expected:

ALTER TABLE `myvideos107`.`movie` CHANGE COLUMN `c08` `c08` MEDIUMTEXT NULL DEFAULT NULL;

I would have to really dig through my library to try and find another instance of this issue, but I don't know whether this qualifies as a bug. Certainly something in the minority, but worth mentioning nonetheless.

Due to the popularity of the movie, I believe there are an unusually large number of available art files. Should this be reported to the Add-On maker so that they can limit the string length? I just don't know. Both Universal Movie Scraper and The Movie Database Add-Ons failed to add the movie. Also, I can see where some people would prefer to have the options to choose from...

Thoughts? Will an update to Kodi copy over the new Data Type, or would I have a huge problem on my hands when v18 is ready for mass adoption?
