Can you help please?

I think there is an issue with https://embydata.com/downloads/addons/xbmb3c/multi-repo/repositories/addons.xml

<addon id="repository.kodinerds" name="kodinerds.net Add-ons" version="6.0.0" provider-name="L0RE">
	<extension point="xbmc.addon.repository" name="L0RE">
		<info compressed="true">https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kodinerds/repo/master/addons.xml</info>
		<checksum>https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kodinerds/repo/master/addons.xml.md5</checksum>
		<datadir zip="true">https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kodinerds/repo/master/</datadir>

Those URL are dead

This repo (link) is completely outdated, I'll try to fix it/or remove it. Actually it's a link to a 3rd party repo.

https://repo.kodinerds.net/

Not sure if this should be integrated in Emby's Kodi repository as it's not part of Emby's Kodi plugins.

@xmqfetya

btw, I assume the issue has nothing to do with the e4k installation issue. You can sideload the plugin as a workaround.

Thanks for the reply

I have successfully installed the plugins by sideloading

It would be great to have a repo though

The issue is related to those errors then ?

Let me know if I can help

I'm not sure why this happens on some devices. The zip file is actually valid.
