And that will run everytime the installed version of inpustream changes.

Thanks for the clarification.

Sorry to be pedantic but I know chuff all about addons.

Do you mean:

A) that the helper add-on runs only whenever the version of inputstream.adaptive changes (ie. the helper add-on is called via the Kodi add-on update mechanism, when the inputstream.adaptive addon is updated)?
or
B) the helper addon runs *whenever* inputstream.adaptive is run (but the helper addon only updates the files when the inputstream.adaptive version changes)?

If (A), then that might be an issue with an OS built-in addon as I doubt the helper addon will know when the inputstream.adaptive addon has changed - Kodi will simply shutdown with version 2.0.1 of the addon, the OS is updated, and the next time Kodi starts the inputstream.adaptive version will now be 2.0.2 (or whatever).

If (B), that sounds fine.

(And yes, this is an issue probably unique to my test builds, but having add-ons built-in makes testing so much easier, particularly when trying to identify regressions etc. etc.)
