Hi guys,

I do have a problem with opening my external usb 3.0 storage 1TB on my Android TV - Thomson (TCL) 55UD6406 (Android version 8.0). Only way that i can open my external usb storage is via original media player from Thomson. I downloaded kodi from google play and when i am trying to open my storage in kodi it says this message - Remote share: Path not found or invalid. The storage is formated like exFat because it doesnt allow me to formated to FAT32. I am not sure if it will work with NTFS, i havent tried yet. Do you have maybe some idea? 

Thank you

Unable to Queue Library Items (Leia 18.1)

$

Good morning everyone.  Long time reader, first time poster here.  I am running Kodi 18.1 (Leia) on a T95Z Plus Android box.  For whatever reason, I am unable to queue items from my library.  The items in question are .strm files generated from an add-on.  The option to "queue item" is present in the contextual menu, but it does nothing.  Nothing is added to my queue list.  However, queuing items from within the aforementioned add-on DOES work.  Is there any way to queue these .strm files or is that an impossibility?  Thank you very much for your time.

Linux - Issue trying to update the keymaps

$

Hello,

I've recently configured a box with LibreElec 9, which brings Kodi Leia. I have configured a MCE Remote, but wanted to change some keys. From the wiki I checked that I needed to create a new XML file over /storage/.kodi/userdata/keymaps, so I created a custom.xml file over that folder with the following content:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<keymap>
    <global>
        <keyboard>
            <!-- Set to update library on red button -->
            <red>UpdateLibrary(video)</red>
            <!-- Unset the rest of color buttons -->
            <green></green>
            <yellow></yellow>
            <blue></blue>
        </keyboard>
    </global>
</keymap>

I've restarted the box, but when I push the colored buttons (red, green, yellow or blue), they go to the default actions associated with them: TVChannels, Videos, Music or Pictures. Do I need to set anything or change anything more to allow the behavior I want?

Thanks in advance!

Has something changed with the way the Kodi Forums handles images?

$

0
I was trying to add some images to another thread today and noticed that some images are being distorted by the Kodi Forums.

For example:

[Image: Shutter-Island-fanart.png]

The code for this image looks like this: [img=1280x720]IMAGE LINK HERE[/img]

If I remove the dimensions [=1280x720], it looks like this:

[Image: Shutter-Island-fanart.png]

The problem is in either case, the image link doesn't work. So there is no way to view a larger version unless the image is wrapped in a [url] tag.

What gives? Is this some type of error from a server update?

I'm having an issue with the new Kodi. When I try to play any trailers from any video it crashes Kodi version 18. I reinstalled version 17.6 there is no problems and the trailer plays but on the new Kodi 18 it crashes Kodi. Are the Developers aware of this issue or is there a fix for this problem ?

Chanel order

Hello. I am able to sort my chanels by name in the chanel list, no problems. Why cant I do the same in the EPG view? My backend has no ordering or chanel numbers and its not something I want to do. The muxes and names change week to week so doing it would only last for so long. Seems like a simple option but I am guessing its a complicated thing to do?

Any advice is apreciated,
Chris

Android - How to get a Kodi 17.6 Krypton version suitable for Sony Bravia Smart Tv

$

Greetings to everyone, this is my first post to this forum.
Having installed Kodi from Google Play Store to my Sony Bravia Smart Tv (Android 7.0.0.) it automatically updated to Version 18.0 Leia and now 18.1. I found the previous version 17.6 more stable, so I 'd like to return to Krypton 17.6. As Google Play offers only the latest version, I installed ES File explorer and I search Kodi 17.6 Krypton suitable for Sony Android TV. On official Kodi site under old releases I found
kodi-17.6-Krypton-armeabi-v7a.apk or kodi-17.3-Krypton-x86.apk. Neither of them could be installed on to my Sony Smart Tv device. Where can I find normal kodi-17.6-Krypton.apk suitable for smart TV?
Thanks for you help

Bug - No Dolby Digital Plus (E-AC3) passthrough

After updating to v18 and now 18.1, every movie (including sample files) that have E-AC3 audio, do not have sound anymore. If you disable E-AC3, the sound returns, but of course as LPCM. I am using an Nvidia shield with latest firmware (7.2). A colleague of mine tested the same on a Mi Box S with the exact same results. All other audio formats (AC3, DTS) work as expected.

Atmos or DTSX within MKV Tags

I saw this thread:
272314 (thread)

I can see that MakeMKV sets the "Codec ID" to "A_TRUEHD" to identify TrueHD. But I want to add Atmos or DTSX marking to the MKV content. Is there something I can put in the MKV audio headers which can be used by Kodi to identify Atmos/DTSX/Auro?

I'm working on a simple slideshow addon for kodi,

import xbmcaddon

import time


xbmc.executebuiltin('ShowPicture("special://home/addons/script.cosmos.slide/fanart.jpg")')

time.sleep(2)

xbmc.executebuiltin('ShowPicture("special://home/addons/script.cosmos.slide/fanart2.jpg")')

I'm searching for stopping the player. Is there any solution?

v18 - Place your Lyrebird / Mimic bugs and errors here!

Greetings all!

Lyrebird will be ready for a 1.0 release by mid-march. The release will come with a slew of new views and features for Media and Games alike! This thread is being created because I'd like to stamp out as many issues people may be experiencing with the Lyrebird / Mimic codebase in anticipation of this event as I will be looking to submit 1.0 to the Kodi repo so it can be fetched within Kodi! 

Please report any issues currently experienced with current builds of Lyrebird / Mimic here so I have a nice clean place of reference rather than having to sift through the main Mimic thread or the Lyrebird thread. If you post something here, I will endeavour to have it corrected in time for the first official Lyrebird release.

Happy Hunting. Smile

Android - Skip forward/back buttons have stopped working

$

I'm currently running Kore 2.4.6 and the skip forward/back buttons have stopped working. They actually stopped a couple of weeks ago, and I'm not certain if there was a Kore update since then.

It initially stopped working while I was running 17.x on a really old Kodibuntu install, so I put off putting much effort into resolving the issue knowing that I was going to be updating to LibreELEC running 18.0. I did the update over the weekend, but still no love.

I used to be able to use the left/right arrows to bump forward/back by 5/10/etc seconds, and the up/down arrows for a 10 minute jump. Now, only fast-forward/rewind are working.

I'm happy to supply any logs or debugging info necessary to help track this down, but I'm not sure what is necessary. Give me a shove in the right direction and I'll provide it.

Odd issue using SMB source

$

I am having a frustrating problem using an SMB source.

I have a Windows computer acting as my media server. I have two network shares, both with the exact same NTFS permissions and the exact same sharing permissions. I am using one local administrator account to authenticate to both of the network shares in the source configuration inside Kodi. One of the sources scans content and plays fine. On the other, I can see the files when browsing in Video -> Files -> source, but when attempting to scan the content or play anything, it doesn't work. The debug log says permission denied, but I have other devices using the same credentials that work without any problems. I even attempted creating a new administrator account and using it in the source configuration, but it still doesn't work only on that one source. I have unshared/reshared the folder. I have removed and re-added the source multiple times ensuring the username and password are correct, and I cannot for the life of me get it to work with only one of the two sources.

Any help or advice would be appreciated.
