ListItem.Rating(rating_type) VideoPlayer.Rating(rating_type) bug?

October 9, 2018, 10:21 pm

I am trying to get these infolabels to work for movies.  I think they were broken prior to PR13754, though ListItem.Rating(rating_type) did change after the PR.

I added some rating types and values to some movies, confirmed by looking at my video database.

The values in the rating table are (rating_type / float value):

default 8.5
audio 2
video 9

In testing the info labels what I see are:

Prior 13754
ListItem.Rating  8.5
ListItem.Rating(audio) 0.0
ListItem.Rating(video) 0.0
VideoPlayer.Rating 8.5
VideoPlayer.Rating(audio) 8.5
VideoPlayer.Rating(video) 8.5

After PR 13754
ListItem.Rating 8.5
ListItem.Rating(audio) empty
ListItem.Rating(video) empty
VideoPlayer.Rating 8.5
VideoPlayer.Rating(audio) 8.5
VideoPlayer.Rating(video) 8.5

Or maybe I don't understand how these should work (I don't think the wiki or doxy stuff have been updated to show how rating_types are supposed to work).

Ambilight without Raspberry PI

Hi there,

in the past Ambilight wasn't something interesting for me. But for some reason I'm getting motivated to try it out. There seem to be several software solutions like Boblight, Lightberry, Ambient Lightning.

But in every tutorial I've found they use a Raspberry PI or something similar for converting the video signal. I just wonder, if that's really necessary. Currently my Kodi is running on a x86 Linux HTPC. The TV is connected via RGB (HDMI on TV is broken).

Is it possible to connect the LED chain via USB to an ordinary PC or do I really have to plug a RPi between the PC and the TV?

Hi my box came with Kodi 18.0 Alpha installed but it didn’t work, so I uninstalled it and installed 17.6 from the play store, this works fine but when I turn off the power and turn it on again Kodi stops working, even if I leave it empty with nothing installed it stops. When I look at the app settings for Kodi before the power is turned off it says at the top Kodi 17.6, When I turn the power off and on again the app setting for Kodi says at the top Kodi 18.0 Alpha then I am unable to open Kodi at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi, I'm running Kodi on a Raspberry Pi. Over the last month or so I have had difficulty running the tvdb scanner and when I go to install the available updates (tvdb, moviedb and youtube), it doesn't get anywhere, just fails. I've searched for a long time so posting here is not done lightly. The error logs show:

I've tried (on various different vpn countries (I use PIA) and on my regular australian ISP) manually curling these urls and get Not Found errors, and tried to access these urls through the browser and get the same. If I try to access http://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/ I get either a 404 or a 403 forbidden error from the redirected url

I'm assuming that there is something corrupted in my local database or something like that, which is not updating to the correct repo url? Otherwise I would imagine a lot of people would complain about this. Any ideas what I can try? I've tried removing youtube (I can't remove tvdb) and reinstalling but no joy

Any help? I've updated Jessie and every available package to the latest

KODI could be a solution for me ...

Hi everyone, I'm new to this forum and would like some input from more experienced Kodi users.

I have been looking for a cost effective way to archive all my movie collection onto a big USB 3 hard drive so that I don't have to manually look for movies and insert discs into my player. Most of my movie collection are 1080p blu ray discs but I have a few 4K UHD movies and documentaries. After doing a bit of research, I've invested in the NVIDIA Shield console and would like to use KODI because I have read that KODI is one of the best open source media management and playback systems and does a vey good job. To that effect, I have some questions:-

1. What is the best way to copy movies onto a hard drive for an exact 1:1 copy of the original ?
2. What format does KODI recognise and work with best in terms of playback without problems ?
3. Is KODI able to bitstream the original surround sound data to my AV Processor (Dolby True HD, Dolby Atmos, DTS HD Master, DTS X, Dolby Digital etc.) ?
4. I'd love to have a beautiful interface where all the cover-art of all my movies are displayed in a clean grid like format - something similar to Netflix or better still the kind of interface presented by Kaleidescape. When a movie or title is selected, a small description is presented too. Have a look at this link: https://www.kaleidescape.com
5. It would be nice to be able to categorise content, for example: Action, Adventure, Scifi, Documentary, Family, True Story etc.
6. Does KODI have a built-in high quality player ?
7. Is KODI able to deal with HDR metadata: HDR10, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision ?

I don't mind buying KODI plug-ins that are designed to achieve the above. If there is free ad-ons to achieve all this or close, that will be fantastic.

Looking forward to hear from passionate KODI users and developers.

Special Character Sorting in Kodi Leia Beta

Hello folks,
Unfortunately, I'm not sure I'm posting in the right place.

Since I have been using the beta versions of Kodi Leia, I have had a problem with my video lists. In my video directory there are marked files, which I promote with a special character like "!Filename.mp4". Unfortunately, this doesn't work with Leia anymore, because Leia doesn't consider special characters during sorting. Is it possible to change this via the settings?

Greetings
Gabriel

Pi Kodi Netflix

I am not sure if this is the correct board for this, but regardless it seems to be the best suited for the question. I have my hands on a Pi 3 (the one with the metal ihs) its flash uses Raspbian with Kodi 18. I attempted to use a netflix addon(https://github.com/asciidisco/plugin.video.netflix) I was able to install it and Kodi accepted it. That is until you try to run it where an error prompts you that its broken and to check the log. (Don't know where the log is stored)
Is there any chance at fixing this problem and where would the log file be located?

I have tried to use file sharing to move movies in itunes and funbox and even though the files do transfer onto the phone they do not show up in the IOS kodi app. This was not the case in v17. Is there a setting I am missing?

In fact the only way I have been able to transfer movies is from Google Drive and that shows up in the Inbox of the files section.

Win - Problem sharing Library between Devices in a pure Windows Network:

October 10, 2018, 10:08 am

Hey all,

i have two hopefully little problems sharing my Kodi Library with all my devices in my home network. My Setup:

- Windows Server 2012 R2 used as central File Server and HTPC for my TV
- Windows 10 Desktop PC
- Windows 10 Tablet
- Server and Desktop are connected via 10/100/1000er LAN
- Tablet is connected via WIFI
- All 3 Devices are in the same network and even Windows Home Group
- All 3 Devices used Kodi 17.6 and are now upgraded to 18 Beta 3

What I did so far:
- AFTER the Upgrade to 18 Beta 3 i decided to start "sharing" my library which was previously only lokal on the Server
- So I exported that lib, configured the advancedsettings.xml to use a MariaDB and reimported my library
- After that i substituted all File Paths in that Database from "X:\Fileserver\Multimedia" to "smb://Servername/Fileserver/Multimedia"
- Last but not least  I configured all my devices to use that MariaDB, too

So far so good: all 3 devices use the same Database now and all 3 devices show the same movies, shows, etc -> until here everything works as desired / expected.

But now my 2 Problems / Questions:

First:
I am missing some Details (Artworks, Posters) especialy in the Series part of Kodi (Season Covers are missing now). Other Artworks and Posters are shown corretly (Movies for example). This is somewhat strange because ALL entries in the ART Table of the Video Database are pointing to a nonexisting directory (the temporary path i used to REIMPORT the previously exported library backup. Is this working as intended? I thought Kodi keeps using that Texture13.db thing or how it was called!?). How do I share those correctly between devices?

Second:
My Desktop plays the media just as it shoul (meaning those substituted new SMB Paths are correct and working!) but my Tablet fails to play any of those files now. There is that "working" spinning wheel which spinns forever no matter how long i wait while the Media Progressbar starts ticking (like 0:30 sec played, 0:31, 0:32, etc.).
When I "cancel" that process using ESC or Backspace I can navigate to other menues in Kodi but kodi is broken from there on (no more UI sounds, etc.).

The only difference to before (where the same media files worked just fine) is that I switched from \\Servername\Fileserver\Multimedia\ paths over to those SMB Paths as it is recommended here and in the board as well as in the wiki.

So what's wrong here?
Starting Kodi on the Tablet again manually navigating to the video file (say: \\Servername\Fileserver\Multimedia\Videos\video1.mkv) the video starts playing immediatly. Doing the same with smb://Servername/Fileserver/Multimedia/Videos/video1.mkv the problem kicks in again.

So this MUST be related to the SMB Protocol.... Already considering to substitute all paths back to \\Servername... but this seems to be discouraged?!.

What can I do to fix this?

I had tried KODI 18 4K UHD navigation playback these days. A problem was found. When playing with 4K navigation, the cache Settings of advancedsettings will not be called, resulting in the sound stuck while playing. If play the 4K TS videos in STREAM folder， the cache Settings will be called,Video is transmitted over NFS. Mybe played with 4K navigation, considered CD mode, cache invalid.

So,how can I solve this problem? thank you.

Kodi Not Passing Through ATMOS/DTS

October 9, 2018, 6:38 pm

Hi all - I'm pretty new to the Android player market as been using a Western Digital media box for the past few years which does not do 4k so hence upgraded.
So I have the shiny new Shield 4k player, all my moves on a Synology Disk Station and the shield is connected to a rather expensive Pioneer 7.2.4 Dolby ATMOS/DTS-X Receiver.

Reading articles and posts on many Forums it seems like Kodi is the player to be using.. however I downloaded the latest version and in the options enable Pass-through but for some reason it pushes the ATMOS audio through as multi-channel PCM and not ATMOS. ... like Kodi is trying to decode the audio and not passing it through.
I watched some YouTube videos and all of the ones I have seen have multiple sliders for DTS, ATMOS, 7.1 TrueHD etc etc.. the Kodi version I downloaded less than a week ago only has one option of Pass-Through.. and I get PCM.
So I saw something on how add Plex into Kodi and that seems to play ATMOS ok.

The other thing in Kodi.. where does all that other shit come from.. there looks to be Hi-5 TV episodes and random shit and stuff.. which is not on my movie server. Where does it come from and how do I get rid of it?

Cheers
Dan
