e123enitan 247 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) @ AngelBlue, In the attached log, it appears that some error some relates to skin which I have reported in Titan section hope Marcel would have time to review, aside from CEC which I will turn off after this writing, I am wondering if other errors might have to do with emby plugin, excuse my ignorant if my suggestion is incorrectly, but I thought it may interest you if not pls ignore. . Thanks Edited August 18, 2016 by e123enitan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angelblue05 4130 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Can you try running the refresh playlist/video nodes by launching the emby add-on? Then see if you can access the emby shortcuts via the Kodi videos shortcut. If you can, you should update your skin shortcuts with the latest video nodes/playlists. Let me know.

e123enitan 247 Posted August 14, 2016 Author Share Posted August 14, 2016 (edited) Here is the pix, it looks fine before/after your suggestion. Pix1-3 just a further indication that every looks fine Now consider pix 4-5 you will noticed that each node start with emby of which I have always wondered why, I have reported this issue several times yet it persist. Here is my thought, I think the issue may relates to the smart shortcuts of the addon what I have noticed is that the first option playlists is what writes the emby Title and the third option emby addon have not impact. Thanks for your efforts, let me know if you need further info Edited August 14, 2016 by e123enitan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're correct, Marcel suggest using Beta coz the issue that reported in Stable skin was resolved in Beta, apprently some issue still remain on solved @@e123enitan I checked your log - has nothing to do with emby for Kodi.

Sorry I didn't understand what you meant by centralized,thumnails are kept in the same folder as the movies from day 1 held on NAS, and this structure have not changed since then. So what suggestion to you have for fast tracking the thumbnails I thought the essence of cache into Kodi has overcome this issue. My issue as it stands seems to relates to Titan, it kept slowing loading and Freeze screen, when I uninstall Titan and navigating within confluence Kodi response nicely.
