thetvdb add-on disabled
#1
Dear all,

For some reason the tvdb add-on is disabled in my xbmcbuntu setup. I can change it's settings but enabling it is greyed out. I have forced updates and such but so far no luck.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

you could remove it.

rm -rf /usr/share/xbmc/addons/metadata.tvdb.com

then restart xbmc

then put it back

(if its not available in a repo, cant remember if it is, i presume it is)

cd ~/
git clone https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc.git ~/xbmc-git
cp -R ~/xbmc-git/addons/metadata.tvdb.com /usr/share/xbmc/addons/


dunno where it is in windows, I presume %APPDATA%/roaming/xbmc/

Saner,

Thanks for you reply!
- After removing the addon from /usr/share/ it still remained in the list of disabled addons with the enable option greyed out.
- I used git clone, made sure there were no references in /.xbmc/userdata/addon_data/, /.xbmc/addons/packages and /.xbmc/addons/ and rebooted.
- The addon still was there without option of enabling it.
- I again removed it form /usr/share/ and rebooted.
- And it was still there! It was disabled but now I could install.
- Installed but it wasn't enabled by default.
- Went into the addons settings, enabled it
- Works like a charm!
