Select server windows on Kodi startup

[jhschulz 3]

On one of my Kodi machines I switched to the latest LibreELEC 9 Alpha version with KODI 18 (was LibreELEC 8 with Kodi 17 before) and therefore installed the latest Emby for Kodi beta version (3.1.34a).

 

With this new version I have the following problem:

 

I have two Emby servers

 

- one with music, running on an Odroid HC1

- one with videos and tv, running on a more powerful x86 system

 

The 2nd Emby server is the one I use with Kodi, but it is not running all time, because most of the time it would only consume energy without being used  Therefore it is switched of automatically if not used and started via WOL if needed (Advanced WOL addon in Kodi).

 

So, most times the configured Emby server is not running if Kodi is started. This was no problem with the old version of the Emby for Kodi addon - as soon as the Server was up, the addon connected to the server. But now, a windows pops up and asks to select the server to be used. Probably because the configured server is not available, but another server (the "music" server) is.

 

Is there a way to disable this selection?

Provide your Kodi log capturing this. It’s not supposed to pop up server selection lile that.

See log.

 

I started Kodi, the Emby server to be used ("mediaserver") was not running, but the 2nd Emby server ("HomeServer") was. Before the "mediaserver" was up and running, Emby for Kodi showed the sever selection window. I waited until the server was up and then selected "mediaserver". Then Emby for Kodi connected to the server. The log ends short after this.

 

Btw: What would have happened if I had selected the other server? It's a completely different server, with other users and other libraries.

@Angelblue05: Do you need any additional information?

[Angelblue05 4132]

No, but I do need a time machine if you have one?
