Request - MP3+CDG Karaoke Support

MP3+CDG Karaoke support was removed with the thought that someone would pick up the reigns and make an add-on that would bring back support.

So far there's no support for this format.  Instead much of the world is using youtube videos for karaoke.

For those of us already invested in MP3+CDG format (you can buy discs on Amazon.com), how about support in Kodi?

(As an aside, support is noted to exist in the wiki Features_and_supported_formats (wiki) in the first paragraph of Section 3:Audio, video, and pictures playback and handling).

Subtitles not downloading/saving properly

Hello all,

Just wondering if anyone else has run into this issue during the past week or so.  I have OpenSubtitles.org addon installed and up until a week ago it worked beautifully.  Play an episode or movie with no subtitles, click subtitles, download subtitles, a list would populate, for the most part you could pick the first one, it would download AND save to the episode/movie location and the world was good.  Now it seems to have stopped saving them.  It does download them as they work as long as the episode or movie is playing.  However it is NOT saving them to the episode/movie location any more.  I swear to you I have not changed a single setting.  I don't know what caused this to stop working.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as other than uninstalling and reinstalling the addons I don't' know what else to try.

I do know this is only the case on the desktop I'm using connected to my TV.  If i try to download subtitles on my laptop install they download and save as they always did.

Thanks for any assistance

Medical Marijuana

Using marijuana doesn't make you an addictive person, what Miss Universe Catriona Gray answered in her Q&A question “I'm for being used in medical use but not so for recreational use. Because I think if people were to argue, 'what about alcohol and cigarettes?' So everything is good but in moderation." Some people used marijuana for medical purposes, as one of the users i found this worldwide-marijuana-seeds com/collections/white-strains and i think it is one of the best MJ that can help us when it comes to the medical aspects.

Where's my movies ??? Not all showing up in skin main window selection.

Kodi 18, with external drives directly attached to media server.  Standard Estuary skin.  I have everything working as I want.  Even figured out how to get movie posters to show up instead of thumbs.  All file naming is good with tiny media manager.  If I view all off my movies from the main movie menu items I only see 192 videos available in all video view.  If I navigate thru the video menu in Kodi and go directly into the scanned move folder than I see all of my movies, 857, have been scanned and are in my library.  Why will they just not show up from the movie menu selection on the main window Huh I usually find out how to fix things myself, but search leads me nowhere on this one.  I even figured out how to post a photo using my google photos to host the image.  I'm not dumb by any stretch but this is stumping me.  Thanks in advance.

v18 - New Artist Information Folder - Questions

February 27, 2019, 9:39 pm

I’m about to use the new Artist Information Folder (AIF).

The recommended method, as I understand it,is to Export my current Music info to the AIF. This won’t include my existing extrafanart or cdart.

Based on the stickied thread and it’s links it seems there is only one method to refresh extra fan art, discart etc: Use the Refresh command on a Artist by Artist basis. Is this correct?

Does a Scan find any additional files or refresh the Kodi music db from NFOs in the Artist Information Folder.

I want to move all my current extrafanart and cdart to a new AIF. With many artists it’s going to be painful Refreshing each one in Kodi.

Over time I may well add new extrafanart or new cdart on an ad-hoc basis so without a global Refresh this could be painful again.

Have I missed something?

Is there a JSON-RPC command to Refresh an artist’s information?

Include $PARAM not being evaluated

February 27, 2019, 10:42 pm

I have a strange situation, seems like a bug but don't see a reason for it.

I was refactoring some code.  I cut and pasted some code from an include and created a new parameterized include and called it from the original include.  I couldn't get it to show up.  I experimented with various things (nothing showed up in debug logs).  I could see the new include worked fine if I didn't define a parameter, but with a parameter it was no-go.

So I stripped it down to what seemed like minimum functionality and made a label display $PARAM[param_name]
what I saw is that $PARAM wasn't being evaluated, instead it was just being passed as a string to the label.  So I did a bunch more testing to see what was happening, created an include from scratch that worked fine.  At that point I was ready to post here for help.  So I could post the code I cleaned it up some including removing a comment from a line.  When I went to check to make sure my code still ran (with bug) to my surprise now $PARAM was being evaluated!  I've checked this comment decoded from utf-8 etc and there's no hidden or non-spacing chars or anything else strange about this comment.  I can't see any reason why the comment would somehow affect just the $PARAM eval and everything else works just fine.   Here's the test include which I also verified in Estuary placing it in Includes.xml:
Code:
    <include name="Test_param">
        <param name="sety">100</param>
        <definition>
        <control type="grouplist"><!-- labels higher when no lang or subs flags -->
                <posx>800</posx>
                <posy>100</posy>
                <width>500</width>
                <height>1080</height>
                <orientation>vertical</orientation>
                <itemgap>0</itemgap>
                <control type="label">
                    <description>DURATION</description>
                    <height>33</height>
                    <width>500</width>
                    <font>font13</font>
                    <aligny>center</aligny>
                    <align>left</align>
                    <textcolor>FFFF0000</textcolor>
                    <textoffsetx>0</textoffsetx>
                    <textoffsety>0</textoffsety>
                    <label>Param is: $PARAM[sety]</label>
                </control>
            </control>
        </definition>
    </include>

and calling it from View_55_WideList.xml:
Code:
<include content="Test_param">
    <param name="sety">20</param>
 </include>

and as I wrote, running Kodi 18.0 with this I get Param is: $PARAM[sety]

And then deleting the comment like this:
Code:
    <include name="Test_param">
        <param name="sety">100</param>
        <definition>
        <control type="grouplist">
                <posx>800</posx>
                <posy>100</posy>
                <width>500</width>
                <height>1080</height>
                <orientation>vertical</orientation>
                <itemgap>0</itemgap>
                <control type="label">
                    <description>DURATION</description>
                    <height>33</height>
                    <width>500</width>
                    <font>font13</font>
                    <aligny>center</aligny>
                    <align>left</align>
                    <textcolor>FFFF0000</textcolor>
                    <textoffsetx>0</textoffsetx>
                    <textoffsety>0</textoffsety>
                    <label>Param is: $PARAM[sety]</label>
                </control>
            </control>
        </definition>
    </include>

and now I get Param is: 20 as expected.

Any ideas what's going on here?

Skipping forward or backward in Kodi 18 sometimes mutes video

February 27, 2019, 11:49 pm

This is a weird bug I've found in Kodi 18 that I never experienced in Kodi 17.

As the title says, it happens sometimes when skipping around in the video, that the audio will mute completely. It's not every time, and I don't know how to consistently replicate the error. However when it happens, the only way to get the audio back, seems to be to stop the video and start it again.

Anybody else experiencing this, and perhaps know of a fix?

Usingn Kodi 18.1 on my Nvidia Shield, to play files from my network folders.

iOS - IPTV Simple Client not compiling

Hi there! I already posted this thread in the PVR support section but since nobody answered I try it here: If the moderator considers this thread a useless duplication do not hesitate to delete it...

My problem is that I'm trying to compile the latest Kodi version (18.2) for iOS with IPTV Simple Client as addon, but it doesn't work... Since I noticed that IPTV Simple Client is also missing in the released official version of Kodi Leia for iOS I was wondering whether the addon is not (yet) compatible with Leia. Anyone knows?

Kodi freezes 1-3 seconds after playing any video

Hi there

I've been a Kodi user for many years, this is the first time I'm quite stumped and cannot glean anything from the logs for this unfortunately consistent, yet broad error. I've searched here and other resources but the results are too broad and I cannot find a specific enough search term to narrow down my search. "Kodi freezes on video playback" is just far too generic! First post here, however been a long time member.

Since upgrading from 18.0 to 18.1, any video I try to play will freeze on the first frame of video, with about 1-3 seconds of audio played before Kodi freezes completely (mouse locked too, so I need to restart the WM as well).

This is on Ubuntu 18.04 - all video files play with no issue directly from Ubuntu using VLC so not a storage or media issue. I've tried a fresh .kodi directory and re-importing my library - same issue. I've tried many different movies and shows all with the same, consistent result.

Debug logs uploaded: naqanapapu.kodi (paste)

Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions.

Hi,

I hope someone can help me out here as I'm utterly bamboozled.

I have the latest Kodi version installed on my Xbox One X and in Kodi, I wish to install a video-add on which is in the form of a zip file, which is on my computer (Windows 10 Pro). Both the Xbox and my windows 10 pc are on the same wifi network, and the zip file is in a shared folder on my pc. Now i want to know how do i access this shared zip file on my xbox? I've been to network locations on my xbox but can't work out what i need to do to access it. Could someone please explain to me - in baby steps - what i need to do?
If for example my PC is named: 'THINKPADX1' and the location of the zip file is D:\Kodi\plugin.zip, how would i access this in Kodi on my Xbox?

Many thanks!

v18 - Android leanback does not respect profiles/permissions

February 28, 2019, 6:02 am

As per title. V 18.1 on Android TV (Sony Bravia)

Leanback recommendations are great... except that they don't respect the profile setup and will allow any user to watch content behind a passcode protected profile.

I have a set-up as follows:
  • Kodi boots into "default", open profile with access only to sources containing family-friendly movies etc
  • By signing out from default you can switch to a separate "PG" profile which has access to separate sources content that "probably requires and adult in the room before watching" (e.g. 15, 18 rated movies etc.)
  • The Master Profile (also password protected) has access to all, but isn't used - apart from to manage the others
The new leanback integration is great and adds suggestions, but from ALL the content. Selecting a recommendation only available from a protected profile plays it WITHOUT any password/code prompt. This effectively makes it impossible to have separate profiles for parental control etc.

Even if it is pulling from the "Master" profile - that should still need a sign in before playing as that profile is protected...

Only workaround is to disable recommendations from Kodi - which is a shame

v18 - Home button on Firestick quits kodi instead of background-ing it

February 28, 2019, 6:08 am
$

With V17 on a up to-date firestick, the home button on the remote would bring up the firetv homescreen but leave Kodi running in the background (e.g. playing music). Selecting Kodi from the app menu simply brought Kodi back to the front

On v81 (latest) home button kills playback and Kodi. Re selecting Kodi from the app menu reboots Kodi and you lose whatever you were doing.

This is big prob if the fire-stick screensaver kicks in or it tries to go to sleep, as pressing home is the way to wake it up.... but it kills Kodi and your music, meaning a painful round trip loading up playlists etc again

Anyone else having a problem with this?
