I'm trying to add custom nodes to Kodi 17.6 running on AppleTV but the Aeon Nox 6.1.0 skin won't show them.
I have a manually created a set of custom nodes (both parent and root nodes) that work perfectly when running Kodi on OSX using the same Kodi and skin version. I've tried to copy them to the AppleTV by copying them to "/userdata/library/video" using the file manager.
The files are copied and if I browse to Videos in Kodi all my custom nodes are listed as they should. But when I try to setup the home window main menu and set the select action on a menu item my custom nodes are not listed in "Select action > Video Library >" so I can't link to them. On OSX all my custom nodes are listed there but not on the AppleTV. Also, on the AppleTV, the custom nodes that are created through the Library Node Editor are visible and selectable, it's just my copied nodes that doesn't show.
There is no difference in folder structure or format between the custom nodes that are added using the Library Node Editor and the ones that I copy to the AppleTV using the file manager and they are both placed in "/userdata/library/video".
I even tried to create a node using the Library Node Editor (that is visible), copied it, changed its name, and then copied it back using the file manager and it didn't show either. So it's definitely something different between nodes that are copied vs. nodes that are created through the editor.
So what could be the issue? Why isn't the skin picking up my manually copied custom nodes when it can see the nodes created using the Library Node Editor?
If I try to replace a node XML file I've created using the Library Node Editor with an edited one, the file is not replaced. Instead the file manager will show two copies of the XML file, the one I've edited and the one from the Library Node Editor. So it doesn't look like they have the same location in the AppleTV file system even if the Kodi file manager list them in the same folder.
