mellomade 140 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Just saw the experimental Live TV (channels and recordings) nodes in the latest revision! Playback from both worked well for me. Is the channels using DLNA or going through the server? I didn't notice any ffmpeg hit during playback so I wanted to ask. This is freaking great though. Glad y'all are doing something with this. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be possible to get channel number listings too? Next to the Channel name? ROCK ON! Edited January 22, 2016 by MSattler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcelveldt 736 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 The live TV support is experimental. It is not a native Kodi PVR addon so it will not integrate with the live tv section in Kodi. Maybe some day I will look into creating a PVR addon for Emby but for now this is just a temporary solution to quickly access your recordings. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much do I need to donate to get Kodi 17 support added? For windows installs OpenElec now has Kodi 16RC1 out. But for the Linux and rpi/rpi2 builds they stopped with nightly builds around 12/1. All builds since are now Kodi 17 =( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could use that for now. As far as I understand it - there is no support for Kodi builds that are pre RC (or beta - can't recall - but nightlies are certainly out) - because the Kodi devs still make changes to the db versioning and this messes with the Emby add-on.

xnappo 1593 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Kodi 17 support will be added. Once it is at RC. Why do people feel the need to live on the bleeding edge? I still run my home theater on 14.2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSattler 387 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Some feedback: Emby Server Admin Panel shows my playback as Direct Play, however, I have ffmpeg processes starting so it does not appear to be reporting back to the Server correctly. Bigger issue, if I play a channel, and then stop, the ffmpeg process does not appear to be killed off. My server just alerted me for 6 ffmpeg processes running at the same time. Thanks!

I still run my home theater on 14.2. Because, as we have talked about before many times, the best skin IMHO for Emby for Kodi has been Artic Zephyr which always called for a nightly build. The other issue you have is that you have tons of people using Rpi2. Rpi2 users in most cases cannot use RC builds, for instance right now we cannot use RC1 for Kodi 16 because that requires using a nightly build, but all nightly builds are now at Kodi 17. OpenElec typically will not put out RC builds until the last RC. I understand that you yourself don't want to do it. That's fine, what I am asking is if someone else wants to, and I'm willing to back that with a donation.

Sweet I can try that. In the past I believe img or someone else has always added support for the newer versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xnappo 1593 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 To be clear - we add code as Kodi is in alpha/beta in anticipation of the RC. We do not schedule this, and will not make any promises as to when it will be usable. All we are 'promising' is it will be ready by the RC. We are chasing their changes, we can't keep up with nightly builds - that is insane. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are constantly updating your skin and pi build. Don't do that. Get a config that works, and stick with it. I am not saying I don't want to do it, I am saying if I do it today, it very well may break tomorrow - which will annoy you. If you really want to chase nightlies, change the code yourself - it is not that hard. I'll teach you to fish. Find out what version on the DB your nightly is using, and add it to def getKodiVideoDBPath(): in the file plugin.video/emby/resources/lib/utils.py. The DB is in your userdata/Database folder, you want the one with the highest number. Repeat for def getKodiMusicDBPath(): Next, Open kodidb_functions.py and find all occurrences of this: if self.kodiversion in (15, 16): # Kodi Isengard, Jarvis and change it to this: if self.kodiversion in (15, 16, 17): # Kodi Isengard, Jarvis, Krypton Finally, open itemtypes.py, replace all occurences of: if kodiversion == 16: with: if kodiversion in (16, 17): Except in one place. Find the comment "# Process the album info" and use this code (different from 17 vs 16): # Process the album info if kodiversion == 17: # Kodi Krypton query = ' '.join(( "UPDATE album", "SET strArtists = ?, iYear = ?, strGenres = ?, strReview = ?, strImage = ?,", "iUserrating = ?, lastScraped = ?, strReleaseType = ?", "WHERE idAlbum = ?" )) kodicursor.execute(query, (artistname, year, genre, bio, thumb, rating, lastScraped, "album", albumid)) elif kodiversion == 16: # Kodi Jarvis query = ' '.join(( "UPDATE album", "SET strArtists = ?, iYear = ?, strGenres = ?, strReview = ?, strImage = ?,", "iRating = ?, lastScraped = ?, strReleaseType = ?", "WHERE idAlbum = ?" )) kodicursor.execute(query, (artistname, year, genre, bio, thumb, rating, lastScraped, "album", albumid)) As of this moment, with Kodi VideoDB at 103, and Music at 59, this is all you need to do. Tomorrow, it may change to 104. They may decide to rename a table or entry. They may decide to totally redo the DB... If you see this, you can report that something changed - but do not ask us for support. Edited January 23, 2016 by xnappo 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
