Hi,
Yesterday, my Linux Mint 19.1 box running Kodi 17.6 Krypton got an update and Kodi 18.0 came to life. I have to say that the migration was flawless.
However, and starting at that very moment, my Kore remote started to behave incorrectly (it was updated a few days ago by the regular Android update mechanism too).
I can navigate the media center using the arrows and other keys without problems. These appear when I decide to play a movie. The problem is that the classic set of controls controlling the movie (play / stop/ pause / rewind...) DO NOT SHOW UP. The remote stands in "nothing being played" mode (sorry, here I'm translating directly from spanish, so the text shown by Kore might not be exactly that one), so I can't control the movie.
I have noticed that if I kill the remote and restart it again, then these controls show up. Then I, obviously, can pause, restart, rewind the movie. However, when I STOP the movie, the controls remain there, so the remote still thinks that the movie is playing.
Once more, if I kill again the remote and restart it again, it discovers that nothing is being played and the set of controls shown is the correct one.
Well, at least I have discovered a workaround, but this behaviour is quite a nuisance.
I hope that you may reproduce the problem and find a solution. I've been using Kodi + Kore for a very long time and I want to do the same the next years!!!
Thanks!!!!
