Hi. I had an addon that i made and it was working in Kodi 16.1.
I upgraded to version 17. Now my addon does not show.

Is there any extra coding that needs to be in the addon.xml file
Can i just use a zipping app to zip up my files, as i believe now i
can only install from zip and not just put the folder in the addons
folder.

Just checked the log and it says unable to parse the addon.xml file.

thanks for any help.

I guess it would help to see your addon.xml file (post to pastebin and link here). Make sure text encoding is UTF-8 in the file. There are a couple of Krypton changes to addon.xml, but I didn't think broke comparability of older addons. Not sure, but if it's python you might need to bump your python dependency.

just to advise, i got it sorted. remade the addon file based on latest layout and all installed ok. addon now working
