I try on android and working....for now.

for Testing
Nvidia Shield TV Pro user need to download this file and owerwrite

I think this is the wrong download link.
Your zip file contains "script.module.thetvdb" and "script.tv.show.next.aired".

@Angelinas, Thanks. That seems to help crashing on Nvidia Shield Pro 2019, but still when I click to start Kodi right after I exited from it, it crashes within 2-3 seconds but if I wait, let say a 30 seconds, then it runs fine. On Firestick 4k Max I still have t disable SHS and SHW or it crashes within ~30 seconds.

@andrzejls Is this something new, I thought you weren't having any crashes with Nexus? Just curious as I have reverted to Matrix on both my Shields until the crashing issues with Nexus get sorted so am watching reports closely. Thanks.


RE: skin helper service - andrzejls - 2023-02-10

@wags1, Hi, I always had that crash the first time I start Kodi Nexus after I turn on Nvidia. After that it runs fine without any crashes. SHS and SHW enabled. I did not mentioned it before since did not consider that as a "real" crash, just a "hick-up".


RE: skin helper service - wags1 - 2023-02-10

@andrzejls Thanks for that, makes sense. A crash definitely indicates something’s not right (and I was getting that crash on startup just as you describe as well running Nexus) and now that I reverted back to Matrix I get no crashes at all. I’ll stay with Matrix till they get the kinks worked out of Nexus on Android.

Great news folks. With the next kodi version we have a functional android again.
https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/22737
Who wants to try. I would say it works pretty stable.

Do you also have this behaviour if you exit Kodi beforehand via the shutdown menu of Kodi and then switch off your Nvidia Shield?


RE: skin helper service - Angelinas - 2023-02-11

@matke 

Master = Kodi 21 Omega, Nexus doesn´t receive the python update and I don´t see any backport available.

PS: Pull Request available to Nexus available now, https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/22749

Adding New TV Show - andrzejls - 2023-02-19

I was looking on Kodi forum for proper section for issues with addition of new show to Kodi and I could not find it.  I have an issue with Nexus that when I add TV Show to my "TV Shows" drive and run "Update Library" from TV Shows menu Kodi does not add that show to Library (mainly does not add "path" in Library database "MyVideos121" table "path" column "strPath") resulting in show not being recognized.
I am pretty sure I am not in proper section of this Forum, so can someone suggest proper Forum section so I can direct my question there and get some help?. Thanks.
