Thanks @Carey

I have reported the problem.

Hello @Karellen,

Regarding @Carey’s post (Post #151), I was able to reproduce the issue he/she described on my Android devices.  So it appears the issue is not specific to just Linux, but could be widespread to other platforms as well. 

I know you said you’ve reported the problem. I was wondering if logs have been captured yet?  If not, let me know and I can capture the logs for the Android platform as the issue is easily reproducible.

Ah, yes. Thanks for the reminder. A log was requested. If you can provide one, we can confirm the issue.

Alright.  I wrote out a detailed description of the steps I took to reproduce the issue, and then the page refreshed on me and I lost everything I wrote.

Basically, when I go to the "ExtendedInfo" screen, everything but the movie poster that was scraped earlier is missing.  Actor/Actress images are missing.  If I select an actor/actress, pretty much every image on that screen is missing.

I will say I did enable libcURL logging though prior to reproducing the issue.

I see the same log lines as before.  But in addition to that, I also see the following log lines now:

Please let me know if you need anything else.

@Crashtastic

Thanks. Do you mind enabling Debug Mode and Component Logging for libcURL and posting again.

Notice

There is a test build for v18 Leia that hopes to resolve the http2 and libcURL problems. Including older artwork links and hopefully ExtendedInfo.

If anybody would like to test and provide feedback, please do so.

Builds can be found here... http://mirrors.kodi.tv/nightlies/ dated 21/10/2020 SHA 2ca197c
(earlier nightly builds will not have the fix)

Click on your platform and select Leia branch. Take care to pick the one with 2ca197c in the name.

It is still a test build, so please make a backup of your existing Kodi data folder.

EDIT:
Leia (pre-18.9) test build is currently lurking in the http://mirrors.kodi.tv/test-builds/ (not nightlies)
Look for files starting 20201020-2ca197cb-Leia

Thanks. Do you mind enabling Debug Mode and Component Logging for libcURL and posting again.

Debug Mode and libcURL component logging have both been enabled.

Issue reproduced.  This time for the movie "Dredd" > Extended Info > and then the info page for actress "Lena Headey".  Again, no images populate when selecting the actress' profile page.

Thanks @Crashtastic I have passed on the log.

Are you in a position to run the test build mentioned in my previous post?

I guess I could, considering my Kodi library is royally messed up at the moment anyways.

I was wondering if I could ask a few questions before proceeding with the update though?

1. Does the test build of Kodi have the same App ID as the official releaase in the Google Play Store? What I want to avoid is the test Build being seen as a different app by Android and having it end up installing another copy of Kodi next to the original. I want to make sure it overwrites the existing installation.

2. When a new version of Kodi is available in the Google Play store in the future, will Android be able to detect this and auto update the test Build? This ties into question 1 above.

3. Can you verify which version of the test build I need? Once I select Android, there are options for "arm", "arm64-v8a", and "x86". I'm thinking the version I need is "arm, but I'm not %100 sure.

Thanks to the Dev team for rolling out the test builds as quickly as they did. Much appreciated.

Hey Karellen,

i just tried 20201020-2ca197cb-Leia from Leia (pre-18.9) test build on Android TV 9, all good.

All images are loading nicely. I m further testing here and here.
Many thanks

[Karellen]

@FOXYZ
That is great news. Thank you for testing.


@Crashtastic
Sorry, I can't answer those questions as I don't use Android. I have asked another moderator to step in.

[matke]

I confirm. Posters working again. Android 9, TV box, armv7. Thanks.

[luizffgarcia]

I can confirm the 2ca197c build fixes iptv simple client as well. Does this build contain more changes than just the http2 fix? Should i expect it to be unstable otherwise?

[DaveBlake]

It does contain a few other fixes, listed here https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pulls?q=is%...s%3Aclosed if you want details.

But it is expected to be stable, in fact ready to release.

is there a planned date for this 18.9 to go officially released?

[Puppet-head]

I tried this release, but seem to getting the same symptoms, could someone give me a idea what I did wrong here
