GavinCampbell 16 Posted January 27 Posted January 27 14 minutes ago, quickmic said: No, it did not change and was never different. The plugin uses the date info from server and has actually nothing to do with sort settings on your emby server unless the server changes the metadata (which I hope is not the case). I think I see why its different after the update. Not sure why its this way though but every version I've tried recently had this issue and I had to revert back. I opened up the database to take a look at the dataAdded field in the files table. Before the update it was populated with dates. After the update (and a database reset) the dates are all set to 0. So this affects the sorting. I will try do a full reset and see if it fixes it when it rebuilds the db.

The missing file is not the only problem I see. Also the settings cannot be loaded. 1

If the dates are all to zero, this might still be an issue with the datetime parsing.

Currently you are the only user reporting this issue. Did you try it on a stock Kodi installation (probably on a PC). I run this version on libreelec, osmc, my Linux laptop (flatpak), on a Windows PC and on my Android phone. No device had such issues. As I have zero pattern at the moment, you need to start with a stock installation. I'm quite sure, this would run straight. Something must be different which causing the issues you have.
quickmic 1703 Posted January 28 Author Posted January 28 General info. The last version has at least one issue when closing progress bar. Will be fixed in next version, it's only an (annoying) visual issue. 1

In 12.4.X are massive changes mainly giving Kodi more resources (cpu/yields) back. As a vague theory, this could raise side effects if the underlying Kodi is buggy. I can tell you there is at least one bug in coreelec. /usr/share/kodi/addons/service.coreelec.settings/service.py): waiting on thread 545821224352 This can be also the reason, Kodi is not stopping/restating properly. That's a hanging task from coreelec. Sorry to say, but currently I cannot confirm/reproduce that issue on any device. 1
