mindguerrillas 1 Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 What's happened to the "Force HTTP Playback" setting in next-gen? I can't seem to find it anywhere. I previously had this set to disabled in order to force direct playback when using it in add-on mode. Is there some new, other way to do this in next-gen? Can I set the setting in the settings.xml file instead? Thanks
quickmic 1611 Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Not added yet in 5.1.17. If there is need for that, I can add that option. Unfortunately, such a feature requires playlist manipulations in Kodi and that's exactly what I'm avoiding at the moment. May I ask, why not using addon mode in the first place? 1
mindguerrillas 1 Posted March 4, 2021 Author Posted March 4, 2021 Thanks for the reply. I think initially I set Force Http to 'off' because I was having issues with some other addons such as subtitles. I was following a suggestion in this thread: I don't have much need for those addons now so maybe I can do with out the 'Force http' setting. I was just looking for it as it was how I'd always previously had it setup. Please don't go adding it back in if it's a hassle. I'll try with out it now and see how it goes. Thanks again. 1
bygadd 1 Posted December 25, 2021 Posted December 25, 2021 Hi, the "Force http playback" option is very useful when I use playback mode - add-on and download subtitles. When the "Force http playback" option is turned off, when subtitles are downloaded via KODI, they are saved in the movie folder. Since the option is missing, I use playback mode - native (direct path) so that I can save the subtitles when downloading them to the correct location, but so I can not use cinema mode and watch trailers. Can the "Force http playback" option be added again?
quickmic 1611 Posted December 27, 2021 Posted December 27, 2021 (edited) Yes I could but I need a better argument Cinema mode/trailers are already added for native mode (in beta version). Edited December 27, 2021 by quickmic
