Addon movie search not working, Dont know if anyone else has this problem, also can you lease explain what the hard coded property fix does please, cheers spoyser

Can't mention that addon here, but I'll take a look when I get 5 minutes.

Hard coded property fix is to do with the chooser dialog which can be invoked by skins, addons, etc to allow setting of skin properties to point to Super Favourites (bit like Ronies favourites script)

I have a question regaridng remote load of SF.

I've exported the favorites using the function in SF. I've put a copy on OneDrive, DropBox and Google Drive.
They all fail, though the OneDrive has one less dialog box upon failing.
The Dropbox and GoogleDrive all report failed, unknown filesize.
The OneDrive just reports failed. http://1drv.ms/1hNq5jg

I have loaded the file locally to test, and that works and it was successful.

I appreciate how wonderful the SF add on is, and I am sorry to ask for your help but I have tried and I can not seem to solve the issue.

Thank-you.

One drive doesn't work as it doesn't present the file as a raw file.

Can you pm me the Dropbox URL (I assume it is in a public folder) or Google Drive URL (again this needs to be the raw file url) and I'll take a look.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/r2686nj4jvg3k6...urites.zip

That isn't the raw URL, this is a dropbox raw URL (I've uploaded your zipfile to my dropbox to test):

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1155...urites.zip

Code:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/115581744/XBMC/Super%20Favourites.zip

I got this using the dropbox windows desktop client.
You'll notice that when you click the link in a browser it automatically downloads the zipfile, rather than going to a dropbox page asking you what to do with it.
And I've checked it and it does work

I suspect that the web interface can't generate it, I'm sorry I wasted your time and I'd like to say I love Super Favourites!

No worries, not really a waste of time, only took a minute or 2.

You're after the public link, I'm sure it must be available from the web interface somehow.

Googledrive will be the same.

Hi, sorry if this has been asked before, but can the Favourites icon on the home screen be configured to launch Super Favourites rather than launching Kodi Favourites? Thanks (Kodi 15.1/Confluence ; Windows 10)

Sort of, but you need to edit a skin file.

I'll see if I can find the details and post them ASAP

Edit
Edit this file:

/720p/DialogFavourites.xml (or might be1080)

in you current skins folder and put this right at the top of the file

Code:

<window type="dialog"><onload>RunScript(special://home/addons/plugin.program.super.favourites/launcher.py)</onload></window>

You can leave the rest of the file alone.

Many thanks.

Another observation re right click on an add-on icon:

1) the text in the window is cut off (see below)

2) How do I now get to the context/configure settings for an add-on?

That should be fixed in the latest version. For now in the SF settings select Dialog for the override menu type.

The bottom option in the menu you have posted will open the standard context menu.

Awesome. That's perfect.

On this one, I don't have a DialogFavorites.xml file ( I only see that file in a Aeon Nox subfolder, soon to be removed) .

I do have a Favourites.xml file, but I don think the above code tweak was meant for that file.

Might be a nice future feature in the SF settings, ie Set Home Page favourites icon to Kodi Favourites vs Super Favourites.

EDIT : Actually, now that I am using it. I removed most of my Kodi favourites and replaced them with 3 SF Folders ( LiveTv, TV On Demand, Movies), so its the best of both worlds now and works great.
