2. Doesn't do that for me, check what button your remote.xml is sending.

but have best results when disabled mpg2 hardware codec

sorry FlowT:
i mix up something
# decode_MPG2 = good results
decode_MPG2 = stuttering
decode_MPG2 + disabling deinterlace = little stuttering after playing few minutes A/V not sync

Do you mean OE 5.0.5 or some other build?

It used to be bad enough having to check that it didn't include any credentials from addons, which I guess is out of the control of the Kodi devs but I would have expected them to hide what they can.

You've deleted the file from dropbox now, but presumably it is the webinterface.chorus.0.3.9.zip file from https://github.com/jez500/chorus that you are referring to?

That file is 10 months old... I wouldn't be at all surprised if it is now incompatible with Kodi 15, maybe a minimum API problem, or missing import, there have been a ton of addon-related changes since 14.0.

If the addon is still supported, you're best off asking the addon author for assistance.

I thought you said you were trying to open the Information screen:

but I'm not seeing any evidence of you doing this in your log.

When I open the Information panel for a video (using the dedicated "i" button on my remote - mapped as <info>Info</info>), in Video -> Files, I see the following OnKey statement in the log:

Code:

18:55:41 6302.119141 T:1969479680   DEBUG: OnKey: launch_media_center (0xc3) pressed, action is Info

So if you're trying to open the Information panel a different way, please be specific as it's not clear from the log what you are doing - describe exactly what buttons you are pressing to reproduce the problem. In your log I don't see you opening the context menu, so that doesn't appear to be your approach (selecting the Movie Information menu item). All I'm seeing are OK/Select inputs.

In fact, even when he tried more "normal" videos (i.e. DVD rips, full movie mkvs, rather than stuff downloaded in Chrome from youtube, etc) they played with omx as well. They all played fine but it made it impossible to identify which ones don't work with dvdplayer. So I tried disabling OMX from Videos - Settings but then everything he tried played with MMAL instead.

If I disable that as well, will that force it to use dvdplayer for everything? If so, I'll be able to get him to identify the files that don't play properly with that and upload one for you to take a look at.

(2015-03-07, 22:43)doveman2 Wrote: OK, in Videos - Settings I've got Default select action set to Choose. When I go to Videos and press OK/Select when on a file it brings up the menu with Play, Show Information and More and selecting Show Information starts playback.

If I then set the content to Movies and let Kodi scan the files into the database, then selecting Show Information does work (brings up the Select Movie screen) so maybe it's intended that it starts playback with files that haven't been added to the database. Obviously not all files are suitable for scanning into a database (Home Movies, downloaded youtube clips, etc) though, so it would be preferable if the Show Information option was hidden unless in Library view if it only works in that but maybe that's not possible and it's not a big deal once the user knows it doesn't work anyway.

It doesn't really matter but FYI I have <info>Contextmenu</info> in the <remote> section with nothing overriding that in <MyVideoFiles> so when I press the "i" button I get the menu with Queue item, Add to favourites, Movie Information and Mark as watched.
