Or you could have one folder per DVD and inside have all *.IFOs and *.VOBs... that way it would prove usefule in case you need to play them without Kodi, on a player not supporting ISOs directly (but I'm not sure if then Kodi would be able to read it as it would need to access multiple files, I'm afraid it would fail... have a try, I'd say).
I tested with one ISO and it didn't work. I plays via KODI off local HD, but when I play off Google Drive through KODI, I get a "This disc has encountered an error. Please eject and try again."

Tried again, I notice if I hit play it moves forward. Seems to be concatenating all the VOBs into a stream. I don't know what I was expecting... perhaps it would magically playback like if you were watching the ISO locally -- where the disc into loads, you get the menu, you select the chapter. It seems it just plays back everything as a concatenation. After hitting play, the disc intro plays, I get the disc menu (nothing is selectable), which I can either fast forward or let it play out and then it starts with the first chapter. The total run time is 11 mins, so I'm not sure if the entire disc would playback.

The code in gdrive-testing doesn't require caching for photos to work, unlike in non-testing. You may have better performance there

thanks for your reply, where can i find this non-testing version ?

When opening video on my android device the video plays but the opening stream prompt stays on screen dead center of the video, how do I close it?

Is this with the -testing version?
In non testing version, there is a setting for disabling opening stream dialog in settings.

Never mind, I disabled all of the subtitle options in advanced and the prompt no longer shows. Thanks for this, it's beyond brilliant!

Thanks, I will check into this. Sounds like if it encounters an issue with finding SRT, it doesn't close the opening stream dialog. Will try to reproduce.

I wouldn't mind people testing the CLOUD_DB functionality. There are still a few bugs being worked out, but I've been using it for the past 6 months to maintain the play watch/resume status, and for queuing, on a readonly KODI (one where the local db is never updated, obviously, so it loses watch and resume status on reboot)
You need to have gdrive-testing, at least verison 0.7.56. More information including setup here -> https://github.com/ddurdle/GDrive-for-KODI/wiki/CLOUD_DB---FAQ

I have a problem with GDrive in Kodi and skin Eminence. When I stop a movie and want to resume , start from the beginning.
If I return to the default skin returns to work well.
However , Amazon Cloud Drive works properly
What could you see ?

When you use default skin, are you getting a pop up asking for quality selection. Is this missing when you use Eminence skin?
It sounds like it is selecting a transcoded version of the file that doesn't support resume.
You can also change in the plugin settings to use original always, in the playback video section. Some of the formats available do not support resume.

really like the new resume function per google drive spreadsheet. so far found no bugs. works as it should between five different kodi devices.

RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - dmdsoftware - 2016-08-24
There was a change on the Google Drive side for transcoded streams. There was a release pushed out to the testing version (0.7.62) that fixed this. The issue only affected transcoded streams, but the user may not realize this if they use auto selection for quality. Original quality was un-affected.
The fix looks good, and there will be an update for non-testing repository today. Until this time, those users impacted by playback errors, should right-click, "play original" or select "original" on the selection quality screen.
Users of ddurdle-testing and the testing version of Google Drive just need to ensure they have auto-updated to 0.7.62 or later.

RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - sabrex - 2016-08-24
Thanks @dmdsoftware for the gdrive add-on. For me, even after I've enabled google drive integration in google photos, I don't see a Google Photos folder from within the gdrive add-on, so there is no way to access my Google Photos content from within gdrive. Is there anything specific that I need to do to see Google Photos content from within the gdrive addon? I'm running gdrive 0.7.62
Also, have you thought about developing a separate Google Photos add-on to browse and play content from Google Photos directly, including shared albums? It seems like you have the know-how to do this, and I think it would become one of the most useful add-ons for Kodi.

I assume you created the link Google Photos in. Everything should be accessible. Which version are you using of the plugin? gdrive or gdrive-testing? Photos are omitted if viewing from Video, by default, unless you change the plugin settings to filter nothing, or view in Pictures plugin.
