hello

is it possible to downgrade kodi from Nigtly (Jarvis) to Stable (Isengard)?

short answer, yes

long answer:

Normally if you download Kodibuntu from the download page, you have just to do:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get dist-upgrade -y

So, if you are using the actual Kodibuntu and got a nightly, you have added the unstable ppa yourself.

We should check first, which kodi version and which PPAs are installed on your system. So please get us the output of:

Code:

apt-cache policy kodi

If you are on a nightly (what will be seen if we got the output from the command above), we could go further....

Remove Kodi (the nightly)

Code:

sudo apt-get purge kodi

remove the unstable ppa

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:team-xbmc/xbmc-nightly

add the stable ppa:

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa

update it:

Code:

sudo apt-get update

and then install kodi:

Code:

sudo apt-get install kodi

Note:

Please get us the output of the first command first (the sudo apt-cache policy thing) before doing the other things

Please don't forget to get us the output of

Code:

apt-cache policy kodi

first before you do the rest. There are other ways, too. So we need that output

--- Lets see if this works for Krypton as well --
so far no change, after an update I cant switch profiles is why I want to downgrade.

You are still on krypton.

If you want to use the stable Jarvis now, you have to remove the "nightly" and the "unstalbe" ppa first.
