REQUEST for a Kodi M compatible version (update to python3). Thanks in advance!

We'll see when Kodi with Python 3 is available

[HeresJohnny]

I'm running the nightlies and would like to continue to do so because there are great improvements of the music library. Unfortunately, many of the video add-ons have not made the transition to python3 yet.

I found a case where the add-on chokes with this error:

Code:

-->End of Python script error report<--

The subtitle filename was "Arrested Development 4x12.Señoritis.en.srt". After changing it to "Arrested Development 4x12.Senoritis.en.srt" the error went away.

Thanks Big D.! Unforutnately the add-on crashes right away when trying to run it on the arbitrary folder:

Code:

2020-05-09 23:35:27.969 T:3500 ERROR <general>: EXCEPTION Thrown (PythonToCppException) : -->Python callback/script returned the following error<--

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Those are my settings:

<settings version="2">
<setting id="on">true</setting>
<setting id="info">true</setting>
<setting id="logo">true</setting>
<setting id="method" default="true">0</setting>
<setting id="herlines">20</setting>
<setting id="folder">smb://192.168.1.185/TV-Movie/_tv/</setting>
<setting id="removecc" default="true">false</setting>
<setting id="removetags" default="true">false</setting>
<setting id="blackbar" default="true">false</setting>
<setting id="blackbar_textcolor" default="true">#FFFF00</setting>
<setting id="custdef">false</setting>
<setting id="delorigsub" default="true">false</setting>
<setting id="ID" default="true">aee0971a-e376-4ec2-935e-6b31f125322b</setting>
<setting id="IDSynced" default="true">1</setting>
<setting id="customdef" default="true">false</setting>
</settings>

BTW, that ID, it's not tracking, is it?

UPDATE:
Could the crash be due to some language strings files not being encoded in utf8 (resource.language.cs_CZ and resource.language.sr_RS)?

[sasagr]

can it work with .ass subtitles?

[HeresJohnny]

Does anybody know what it takes to make this work on Kodi N?

[Klojum]

In other words, a Python 2 to 3 conversion..?

[HeresJohnny]

No, it's already Python 3 as far as I know as it runs on M.

Add-on unofficlally updated by me to work with latest Kodi 20, will also work with Kodi 19.

The Addon doesn't work on Kodi Nexus 20.2 (Android) . Does anyone has this problem too?
