Hey all,
I decided to setup two separate profiles... one for the kids, and one me and my wife. I have the profiles setup and operating, but the transition between the profiles doesn't function as I would like. Ultimately, I would like the kids profile to automatically login (this I was able to achieve by choosing it to auto-login via the Profiles menu). Then I would like to choose to switch profiles (or log off of the kids profile) so my wife and I could switch to ours. Unfortunately, the Log Off command is removed from the Power menu because I chose to auto-login to the kids profile. Also, if the parents profile is left logged in but idle, I would like for the computer to either log out of the parent's profile or switch back to the kids profile automatically. I did find this add-on (https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=197888) that appears to do what I am looking to do, but it hasn't been updated for a while and isn't compatible with the latest version of Kodi. I also found this add-on (https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Logoff) but we use our screen saver to show pictures (which the family really enjoys). As such, a screen saver add-on isn't an option.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to accomplish this? If it's helpful, I'm running LibreELEC 9.0.2. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide!
Regards,
Kurt
