Skipping unplayable item

[treason 11]

So I've been trying to figure out why my channel guide in pseudo tv is sometimes out of sync.

 

I finally pulled to debug logs that seemed relevant. I clicked "Grumpy Old Men" in the guide, but Tommy Boy played instead.

If I play the title manually in kodi, it plays fine... Any idea why the playlist created by pseudo tv is unplayable?

 

Thanks for the help

For maximum compatibility with other Kodi add-ons, you should use Native playback mode. You will need to reset your local database and let your content resync, but it should behave correctly with pseudo tv.

Ok, so I just checked the settings and it says "Playback Mode, Native(Direct paths)" Is this what you are referring to? If so, it seems like I already have this enabled.

 

Is pseudotv somehow not using direct paths even though it's setup that way in emby? Is this even possible?

[Angelblue05 4132]

Yes that is the correct setting. If it's already set, then it looks like you didn't reset your database after changing the setting because it's definitively calling plugin paths still.  If you reset and it's still using plugin paths, let me know.
