Hi ! I'm having a hard time setting up this. I have several issues :
1) I have a very large collection of movies on a remote server and Composite gives me access to all sections except when selecting all movies / all tv shows, is it because of some media amount limit ?
2) I also have a local server. However even when choosing the distant server as a master server, Composite only shows the local server sections in the update setting part of the addon. How to access my remote server in settings then ?
3) Followed the turorial to add sources and Composite returned some error so I can't add sources at all.

I am having issue on Nvidia Shield TV. When I try to play something I see spinning wheel and after a minute Kodi crashes.
In Plex dashboard some data gets transmitted but nothing specific in Kodi log.
edit - did some more debugging, it seems composite starts filling up the ram but does not play file. When ram gets overfilled kodi crashes.

Having an issue that is driving me nuts. This is my last hope trying to figure it out:
setup: I have a Plex server on my Intel Nuc, connected to a gigabit connection. I also have an nvidia shield running the plex composite addon in Kodi connected via ethernet. Everything is local.
-When I play a 4k file on the normal nvidia shield plex app, I get perfect direct play of around 80mbps local activity, no buffering.
-When I play the same 4k file through plex composite inside kodi, my local activity caps at around 25-35mbps, and buffers continually.
-When I enable a VPN to my local city and play the same file on composite in Kodi, I get 80mbps of remote activity with smooth playback, no buffering.
I am pulling my hair out trying to figure this one out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Current version spits out errors in latest kodi. If you go into debug log, you can see which lines are the offending ones - comment them out with #, and remove the error. Doesnt break functionality, but it does give the "Potential memory leak" warning if not addressed, so thought I would fix manually and share the fix.
Thanks for the add-on!

Awesome addon. Long-time PlexKodiConnect user but Composite is way faster to playback without faffing with samba shares and doesn't transcode HEVC. Is there a way to strip the show name and episode title from widgets and the season view? Before I'm used to the On Deck/Continue Watching TV Show widget showing just the Episode Name rather than Show Name - Episode 1x01 - Episode Name. Same for the Season view.
