Hello all,

I could not find help for this anywhere, so wanted to post a solution that worked for me. I upgraded from 16.1 to 17 beta 6 and could not get the NextPVR backend to work.

I have seen others ask about the error in the log that reads:

Code:

ADDON: Could not locate pvr.nextpvr.so.2.4.8
ERROR: UpdateAddons - failed to create add-on NextPVR PVR Client, status = 6

Searching the file system, I located the file in /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/kodi/addons/pvr.nextpvr/
but discovered that Kodi is looking for it in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi/addons/pvr.nextpvr/

so I made the folder and copied it over and it started working for me:

commands for reference:

Code:

mkdir  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi/addons/pvr.nextpvr
cp /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/kodi/addons/pvr.nextpvr/*  /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kodi/addons/pvr.nextpvr/

I hope this helps someone else!
