Web Interface Video Stream

Hi Everybody,
as first thing I wanted to thank you for the great job you are doing, i really appreciate it Smile. Then I wanted to ask, if there's the possibility to see the video stream of a movie through the Kodi web interface, or if by chance it is a feature that you already planned to add somewhat in the near future.
Thanks in advance for the answer,
Best Regards,

Enric

I am a beginner, trying to develop my own kodi addon. I have made an introductory "basic" video addon as explained in kodi wiki.

But, am unable to install it. Relevent part of log says following:

Kodi v19/v20 crashes during library scan (vfs.rar)

My Kodi v19 as well as v20 crashes after a long time during library scan. It always ends up with the following lines in the log: 
Code:

The logs are getting huge when logging is enabled (several GB) so it's not a feasible option to have it enabled by default. Is there a better option like make Kodi produce a memory dump when it crashes that can actually be helpful to track down the root cause??

Minimize Kodi from fullscreen to taskbar with 1 key?

Hi!

I have built a touch-pc in my kitchen with a few free programmable buttons and I'm asking for a way to minimize Kodi in fullscreen to the taskbar to use the pc for other usages, during (music-) playback f.e. internet browsing  ect.

I tried using the standard-Windows-function "win"+m. Its exactly what I want and it works on most programs, either kodi in window-mode, but unfortunately not in fullscreen-mode.

Why doesn't kodi get minimized in fullscreen-mode? Is there a solution known?

Interestingly, starting kodi with the "minimized-option" in the shortcut-settings" does work without problems. When I tap on the running kodi-tab in the taskbar, kodi maximize into fullscreen.

I just want to minimize kodi from fullscreen to taskbar via 1 keypress and maximize it with another key.

Is that possibla in any way?

Thanks and kind regards!

Movie information page buttons no longer active

$

I'm wondering if I'm to only one experiencing this problem with Amber. None of the buttons within the information pages of all my movies or TV shows (Play, trailer, actor information, etc.) are working. They only highlight when my cursor hovers over those buttons, but nothing happens when I click on them. Also, I no longer see the buttons to choose art, or show fan art. All these things still work perfectly, when I go back to Kodi's default skin (Estuary). I'm using the Amber skin (3.4.11) on Kodi v19/Matrix (Windows 7 64 bit). Has anyone else experience this? Any suggestions on how I can fix this problem? Thank you in advance!

Multiples labels in listitem.setProperty() is possible?

$
0
0
I have some doubts about how to have multiple tags. I want to set a character name, where there are several names:
For example Scott Summers, also known as Cyclops.

I have this SetProperty: 
Code:
listitem.setProperty('charactername', issue['m_character'])

This Property is read from an .nfo file between the <character> </character> tags, being:
Code:
<name>Scott Summers</name>

This value (as well as others) is stored in a .json file as "m_character": "Scott Sumers", and this generates a database where when searching for Scott Summers, it will show all items related to this character (Just like what happens in the music section, where we have the artists).

and setting a
Code:
<label>$INFO[ListItem.Property(name), Character Name: </label>
on the skin, I get the string "Character Name: Scott Summers".

That is, I have ONE tag in the nfo for the character.

But just like in the music section, I would like to have multiple names on this Property. Where in .nfo would it be:
Code:
<name>Scott Summers; Cyclops</name> (separated by semicolons)
That way I would have TWO names for the same character.
As it stands, create only ONE ENTRY in the database: "Scott Summers; Cyclops" and I want two different entries to be created, one for each name (as well as in the music section where we have several artists for the same song)

Is it possible to achieve this result?

Sorry for the long text, but I tried to make it as clear as possible.

Specific SD channels playing out of sync and pixelated

$
0
0
I am running Kodi 18 as front end for Mythtv 30 and utilizing HDHomeRun tuners. I receive about 30 channels (mix of HD and SD), and all except four (actually one channel with four sub-channels) come in great.
These four channels lose the synchronization between audio and video, and the content stops and goes, sometimes pixelated. They are unwatchable. They are low definition and low power but I get good solid signal at the tuners. When I play the same channels through the Mythtv front end they play perfectly. This behavior is the same for live tv and recorded programs.

What suggestions can be shared to track down why these particular channels are not playing correctly?

I am trying to reinstall the service version check on Kodia (Matrix, Nvidia Shield, Android TV). For this service / plugin, the uninstall button is greyed out, thus not allowing me to uninstall and reinstall. Is this typical and can I reinstall?

The number of episodes watched is no longer displayed; for example, when I watched the first two seasons of American Gods, it said 20/30 instead of 30 episodes - I find this quite clear and much easier. How can I restore this?

GUI not correct shown if switch back from 4k to 1080p

Hi Folx.

If I switch on my TV, the Resolution of the System (Ubuntu) is set automatic to 4k. If I switch back to 1080p with Kodi (19.0) opened it shows only a quarter of the Kodi GUI. I must close and reopen to get it right. But sometimes Kodi seems to detect the Resolution switch and showed up correctly than.

Any idea which JSON command I must use to set the GUI manual to 1080p?
