I have created custom menu items in order to launch some websites that i use (prime video, deezer, etc...) with chrome launcher. it works great but when i leave the website, i'm in a chrome launcher folder and not on the main menu

On the older version of amber, i tried this trick succesfully : https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=251294&pid=2767303#pid2767303

But since leia and the amazing new version of Amber skin, when i try to replace "activatewindow" with "PlayMedia" when i quit the website, kodi keeps relaunching it until i loose my mind ^^

Do you have a trick to return to main menu when i close chrome?

Perfect! Thanks! The last thing I can say is that only in lowlist the height of alphabet strip are not enough for it, and the last letter be a little cropped.

I could not noticed anymore any unwanted behavior on alphabet strip. I think is solved now Thank you!

i use this version of chromelauncher: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=170965&pid=2809977#pid2809977 it seems t be a v2.0, works fine.

I've created a launcher for prime video in chrome laucher (kiok=yes / stop playback=yes), then add it as favorite

then i go to settings/ skin settings/ customize home menu and shelves and create a new one.
choose item > the favorite i have created

at this step it works but when i close the browser, i come back into the chromelauncher addon, not at the main kodi menu

so i tried to modify the action in: Change action/ custom item

and i replace the default action: ActivateWindows(10001, "plugin://.............
with : PlayMedia("plugin://................

But then I acts like i described on my previous post


Edit: i'm using Amber 3.2.9

It is present in "Additional Shelves", but I cannot use that without the sorting messing up the correct order.

It works fine on my other Pis and on my PC, any idea why this could be? They are all on Amber 3.2.1

@Enigma256, please ensure that you have the addon service.skin.widgets installed. Recommended Episodes in the default shelves is provided by that addon. Thanks.

@stunty999 , I was able to almost replicate your issue.  The behavior I get in Windows is that the website is launched in multiple tabs in Chrome, and I get a playback error, which was to be expected.  Kodi does not relaunch at all and I am back in the main menu.  Unfortunately, I think this is due to the plugin itself, so the plugin developer would have to take a look and fix.

I suppose you are aware that, if you are on Kodi Leia or above, there is another option that works very well for Amazon Prime video: https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=331136

I apologize I could not be of more help.
