Hi folks,
here i come with a strange problem which i hope you can help to solve.
I am running Kodi 15.2 on an Android tablet with no problems, everything works fine.
In order to stream online content to my Chrome-cast with BubbleUpnP i have a "playercorefactory.xml" which is in my "Android/data/....." folder. Everything fine, no problems
Now:
I have several movies in my red which i integrated into my Movie library on Android. Working perfect, but when i click on the movie they won´t play at all. For testing purpose i deleted the "playercorefactory.xml" file, started Kodi again and the movies play fine in Kodi itself.
I also tested to play the movies accessing them by "library sharing" from my Kodi (PC where the movie files are stored). Those play fine and stream via BubbleUpnp when the "playercorefactory.xml" is in the "Android/data/..." folder.
So as it also happens with Localcast it seams to be a smb sharing/parsing problem.
I would love to integrate the movies of my Red into the Android Kodi library - streaming them with BubbleUpnp and not accessing them via "library sharing"
Above the xml and a part of the debug log with the smb parsing error.
I saw in other threads that this problem happened with much earlier Kodi builds, seams its back again - at least on Android devices.
Found an interesting error entry in the debug log
