If I SSH into Libreelec on my rPi I can run
Code:
systemctl stop service.downloadmanager.transmission.service
How can I replicate this action using my addon?
I tried:
Code:
import xbmc
xbmc.executebuiltin('System.Exec(systemctl stop service.downloadmanager.transmission.service)')
but nothing happens. Actually it seems to crash;

some other options are:
- os.system()
- subprocess.call()
Just out of curiosity, when kodi executes a shell script does it use the same user ID as one would use to ssh or does it have it's own specific userid?
Code:
import os
os.system("stop service.downloadmanager.transmission.service")
Code:
import subprocess
subprocess.call('stop service.downloadmanager.transmission.service', shell=True)
These don't seem to be doing anything either...although I'm not getting a crash this time.
that's a different command then in your first post ;-)
Doh, sometimes I do not know why I make these stupid mistakes, it's working now, thanks ronie!
