Thanks for the update.  Not sure if you read through the details in the release but the fix I just pushed was for exactly that issue. Probably happened to a lot of people.

Yeah I didn't check that as on my Chromecast Kodi I can't patch it anyway so waiting for the fix to be pushed to the repo... so 1.6.6 is the latest for Matrix? Only seeing 1.6.5 here

After Kodi became unusable due to a problem with a plugin, I proceeded to restore the most recent made backup.
It was then that I encountered this issue:

When attempting to restore a backup which included a advancedsettings.xml file, the backup did not proceed upon choosing "Yes" for restoring advancedsettings.xml first.
The plugin gave an error and asked me to refer to the log. (I have no idea how to find that)

Eventually I worked around the issue by manually restoring advancedsettings.xml and simply choosing "No" on the "restore first" question.
Am posting this issue here to raise awareness to it, and perhaps assist in the resolving on the issue.

Should any more information be needed, I'd be more the happy to provide it.

1.6.6 is approved but not merged into the official repo yet. Just waiting for that to happen and then you'll see the update.

Thanks for pointing this out. I'll do some testing on my end and see if I can recreate this. Do you happen to know the version of the addon you were using when this happened. There were some issues with GUI dialogs (yes/no dialogs specifically) but those have been patched now. That would help me narrow things down if you know that. Thanks.

The way I search and launch movies is by an app called Syncler. I used to have the option to select one of the two Kodis installed on my Shield. For some reason, since the last 19.0 build in this thread, I can no longer select this kodi to play movies. As if the Shield is not aware I have it installed, so when the Syncler app asks me which media player I want to use, I only have Kodi 18.9 in the list with VLC and MX Player, but no Kodi 19.0.

I tried re-installing the 19.0 build in this thread but it still doesn't appear. So it used to work but no longer does. Can anyone suggest how to get this build to be available in any 3rd party app that asks me which player should I use?

I'm unable to create a backup on my Android TV Box. The backup process always stops at the same place: addons\skin.aeonmq7.leia.mod\media\wall\boxes
I'm using version 1.1.3 on a Kodi Leia 18.9 fork, but the same issue also happened on the official Leia 18.9 release. Here's the logfile. The error message starts at line 528.

Any idea what is causing this issue?

EDIT: I tried version 1.5.4. Same issue.

Could you run that same thing again but with Debug logging turned on? The error is a Memory error so my guess is that there is a big file somewhere that can't be sent due to your system not having enough memory to facilitate the copying of the file. Debug mode will list the files as they're copied so we can tell which one is throwing the error.
