Kodi Krypton

[Wheemer 42]

Hello;

 

I was previously on the Kodi nightlies and was happy to update often.

 

Since Kodi 17 Krypton came out I am unable to update because Emby is no longer compatible with it.

 

When will compatibility be added? From what I have found it is not a lot of work.

 

Thanks

It will be supported once it hits RC.

 

See this post if you want to chase it yourself:

Note that the latest beta already has some of the changes needed.

 

I really don't understand why people not doing development work use alphas/nightlies 'in production'.

I am currently goofing around with Kodi on the new Apple TV 4 - and it is based on Krypton only.  Which BTW works pretty well with Emby for Kodi so far....

Yep - and that is fine.  Just don't complain if it breaks on the next build (which I know you would not).

[Wheemer 42]

I run the nightlies to help test the next version of Kodi. I report problems to help make it more stable.

 

Isn't that the main reason anybody runs them? It makes me feel like at least I am contributing something.

 

I found the changes that need to be made and I attempted it previously. However I did not have any luck getting it to work.

 

Considering how the changes are not that much I was hoping they would be included already.

[xnappo 1593]

We do change the code to work with the nighties, but not every night

 

We will only promise it will work when they reach RC.  It should probably work when they hit beta.  It might work with a nightly.

 

period.

I see that the only file that still needs editing is the utils.py

 

I am modifying that and testing currently.

[xnappo 1593]

Feel free - just realize that tomorrow the database may change and it will break.  That is why i posted the instructions for people who want to try..

[Wheemer 42]

This is working fine, the only problem now is everytime Ebmy updates I have to re perform the code edits.

oh damn

i need krypton for mvc support

Guess i have to wait for months to emby to follow

[im85288 1493]

Just to clarify for anyone reading, you are NOT waiting for Emby to follow you are waiting for one of the contributors (who do so in their own free time) to add this for you. This is NOT an official Emby product, it is developed 100% by people in their own free time.

 

If you need the feature added to the addon, submit a Pull Request so that others will benefit and you will add your own contribution to this community addon.

 

Complaining about having to wait will not get what you want done quicker.

Ask for a pull request?

[xnappo 1593]

It is a single line edit.  We are purposefully not editing the line to turn it on for the masses, because it could break at any time and we don't want to support it on a daily basis.

I had a spare two minutes so added it: https://github.com/MediaBrowser/plugin.video.emby/commit/d95d854f70b19bc698c9f17f392de0bffe6e1a18

 

As xnappo stated - do not complain if it does not work or break until Krypton hits BETA.

 

Cheers

Appreciated.

 

Thx

This will come with next beta?

[im85288 1493]

Yes for sure, though when exactly that date is I could not say

[skank 82]

thx for this

I know this is supported and I am not complaining. But I was hoping someone could take a look at this error log. I am using the updated Utils.py file with the 104 db. I am using V17 because of the MVC support in the 17 alpha.

There may be more than one place you'll have to fix this in utils.py so it's plugin.video.emby instead of plugin.video.metaman

Dammit, so I went a bit crazy with cut-n-paste I see?

[mguebert 9]

Thanks that fixed it.

[spootdev 56]

I just submitted a PR to fix another place I boo'boo'd the code.  Angel already fixed my other stupid.
