Using Kodi 17.1

I have MySql server setup in one of my Kodi installs and I'm able to update episode info
In the other two Kodi, I can't update. The buttons doesn't appear.

Is there an advanced setting that block Kodi from update if mySql is not installed in that device?

How to fix this? As I'm the admin of all Kodis, why can't I update it ?
This used to work in Kodi 16

Kodi server:


Kodi client:

No one? Please?

Not that I can check right now, but I will take a guess. Do you have a sources.xml on all the clients or only on the device that that has the mysql server?

[fernandovg]

hey, thanks for replying.

all Kodi have this in sources.xml (not pasting the full sources.xml)

Code:

<video>
        <default pathversion="1"></default>
        <source>
            <name>Series</name>
            <path pathversion="1">nfs://192.168.1.x/media/HDD/media/series/</path>
            <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
        </source>
        <source>
            <name>Movies</name>
            <path pathversion="1">nfs://192.168.1.x/media/HDD/media/movies/</path>
            <allowsharing>true</allowsharing>
        </source>
</video>

UPDATE:
Using notepad++, file comparison tool, they are exactly the same

Is your "content" set on the source from the ones that can't update?

[fernandovg]

AFAIK i can only set content in the Kodi that has the mysql right?
As item 5 here: http://kodi.wiki/view/MySQL/Setting_up_Kodi

What is odd that this same setup worked in Kodi 16

[fernandovg]

Ok i think i figure out.

XEM scrapper is not installed in the other two setups
Now that is installed it works.

"If you however used a metadata collector add-on (scraper) that does not ship by default with new installations, such as the Universal Movie Scraper you will not be able to display the media information screen on the new Kodi device. To fix that you need to install the same metadata collector add-on on the new device"

I can see media information BUT i can't update. So that text needs some updating

thanks for the help

Yup that will do it.
