Unable to connect after add-on update

Hi, I updated the emby nextgen add-on when prompted and now can connect at all anymore to the server.

The server is fine and can connect via my phone app.

When I enter my credentials it briefly shows the welcome message and then shows the select server window again and no login is shown in the add-on settings.

Stuff I've tried:

Reinstalled the add-on from both stable and beta repos. Same result

Reinstalled kodi. Same result.

What else can I try? I couldn't find a solution in the forum. TiA!

Onn TV box running kodi 19.3

I need a kodi.log for review. Must be special to you use case.

Hello,

I had the same problem as @gevarghe, emby-next-gen plugin stopped working after update to version 6.2.12. Tried with 6.2.13 and 7.0.0-501, same thing. I didn't update anything else before it stopped working.

At first I couldn't play the files, so I went into the plugin settings and I could not connect to server (when clicking on the button, the popup just closes and I get an error). Looked a bit more at logs and apparently, the advancedsettings.xml was malformed, so I removed it and after a few kodi reboots, I can connect again.

I attached some infos and the kodi.log and advancedsettings.xml that was causing my problems if it can help.

Thanks for the great plugin !

Thanks, at least the header is missing in the xml.

This one: <?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
 

Should look like that:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<advancedsettings>
    <network>
        <curlclienttimeout>120</curlclienttimeout>
        <curllowspeedtime>120</curllowspeedtime>
        <curlkeepaliveinterval>0</curlkeepaliveinterval>
        <disablehttp2>false</disablehttp2>
    </network>
</advancedsettings>

I'll check if there is another issue with the advancedsettings.xml

How did try to connect? Was there a list of servers? Did you use manual connect or emby connect?

The log shows there are no Emby servers found.

If manually, did you enter the server address (ip) WITH the http or https prefix?

e.g.

http://192.168.0.207

Used emby connect... Showed the welcome message after entering my details then the list of servers dialog window comes up but nothing to connect to (but server's up and accessible on my phone via the official emby app)

Think I'll need to be more structured with my testing. Will uninstall both kodi and emby add-on again and share 3 logs. 1) with emby connect 2) with manual connect 3) deleting advancedsettings.xml

Anything else I can try out?

This has nothing todo with advanced settings. If there would be an issue, it's in the logs. Yes please try manual connect. Do you have special characters in the url. (yes this is possible even not a good idea).

With emby connect the server url comes from the "API". I assume something is wrong there, so a manual connect would prove that the connection itself works (or not).
