Is there a particular sequence to install the modules required (which?) to finally install the skin helper service?

I am sorry, but I am a little bit confused by now. Smile

Thanks anyway for your efforts! Smile

We agree on that these are scripts/moduls for Matrix, right? (Just to be sure.)

Thanks and credits to @Angelinas!

After first installations sequence, som of the scripts and modules will not install due to missing dependencies, but second installation sequence with the first failed scripts and modules everything went fine. Now the skin helper service works. Thanks a lot!

Yeap, same error I reported some da back

PIL is a Python 2 module/library. It has to be replaced with PILLOW

See here: https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/stable/about.html

And Wikipedia:
Development appears to be discontinued, with the last commit to the PIL repository coming in 2011.[2] Consequently, a successor project called Pillow has forked the PIL repository and added Python 3.x support.[4] This fork has been adopted as a replacement for the original PIL in Linux distributions including Debian[5] and Ubuntu (since 13.04).[6]

Yeah, I've read your post only after making mine Tongue

We have to wait for Angelinas to push it, it seems?
I've installed the script anyway, but disabled it, since Aeon Nox:SiLVO (the one I'm using) doesn't need this one.

I thought that script was still in python 2?

Try mine version, I didnt try in tvguide, its ok for Shs part .......working for Matrix
https://mega.nz/file/DEgBwSBC#peVdf4m18p...P4i5Avs-xs

I've tested this version on Aeon Nox: SiLVO and it doesn't seem to be doing anything. It's also not giving any errors, but when I run it to populate my .db, it gives a quick popup and nothing.

And of course, skin isn't populated with the information as well.

remove this two n xml in skin, or assq author to fix dialog for script.tv.show.next.aired
script-NextAired-TVGuide.xml
script-NextAired-TVGuide2.xml

You're awesome, always on top of things. Yes, I reported the issue in the skin too, since I thought it was indeed a skin issue. Thanks for posting a quick fix but I think the developer has changed to TMDB helper to populate the next episode airing etc.

I will keep using this one too, because I like the TV Guide.

@Angelinas I think I've found out an issue with skinhelper backup. When I run it I get:

That was fixed in last year...
Please use script and module from github....version is 1.0.19

Don't want to nag too much, but has there been progress on pushing the python v3/Matrix changes of all required addons from the kodi-community-addons github repo to the Kodi addons repo to be available for automatic download for everyone?

Nope! In fact the KODI Matrix repo is pretty bare

Chillbo · 2021-03-01, 14:56

I'm aware, but maybe @Angelinas has made some progress on this besides what's visible in the Kod repo.

In Windows worrking PIL ,I don't have that 'traceback' error.I will add in utils.py "import traceback" in row 10.That will fix isue with log_exception.

@Angelinas

I checked the code, ad seems I was wrong... it looks like Pillow is being used. Also I saw an old Bug reporting that Pillow was missing from Matrix, and the PR that close the bug only talks about including Pillow with the Windows packages...

I am asking on the Android section of the forum if it could be that Pillow was not included when creating the APK packages

Thanks
