Hi,

 

I am having similar issues, but there is no initial sync with my emby server using the latest emby for Kodi addon (3.1.10a) at all. There is also an error message of the kodi emby addon when I start my client.

 

My Kodi client is a S905x Box running on the lastet Coreelec (8.95.1).

The Problem are the äöü in the german language file. Change to en or replace all äöü with ae ue oe in the po file for now.

Looking into it right now.

[janenner 2]

Switching the language from German to any Others language actually solves the problem. The obscure german characters äöü seem to be the bad guys

[Angelblue05 4127]

Ok it's a different error. But at least the fix for the nodes work (if you compare to the error post #3). Let me update the build and make you retry. Give me a few minutes.

Edited September 10, 2018 by Angelblue05

[loomes 40]

Yes i think it must be fixed at every position in code where the strings from language files are in use.

[Angelblue05 4127]

Try this build.

plugin.video.emby-3.1.10a.zip

[loomes 40]

Working. Startup OK. Emby Settings OK, no errors so far.

[Angelblue05 4127]

Thank you for confirming, I'll push a new build out in a few. Just a couple of things to fix still.

[Angelblue05 4127]

Version 3.1.11 is on the way.
