I know you're thinking, why not simply copy the file through the file system but I'm using an Nvidia Shield with a restricted profile and you can not access that path from a fileshare (maybe you can if you root it but I don't want to do that)

I think I can add the file import of course. Will do in the next release

What would this allow us to do, exactly?

Sorry for delayed answer, just noticed. This is to have 2 lines for editing the sorttokens. The original format of advancedsettings.xml may have multiline values. For example:

Code:

<sorttokens>
    <token>the</token>
</sorttokens>

The 'token' section can be multiple but such parameters are not allowed in the standard Addon Settings dialog, unfortunately. Hence this config above as a workaround, to allow editing a fixed number of multi-value parameters.

Thanks for the Plugin, it's great!  Is there any chance you could add a pathsubstituiton section?  I know it says it's broken and not supported but it still works and helps to sync kodi settings between devices if used correctly:

<pathsubstitution>
  <substitute>
    <from>G:\dvds\</from>
    <to>smb://somecomputer/g-share/dvds/</to> <!-- Note the difference between the usage of forward and backslashes -->
  </substitute>
</pathsubstitution>

I found this very helpful.

It worked flawlessly when I set the "up" button on my remote to jump forward 3 minutes and 15 seconds on my Fire TV Cube. This allows me to use Alexa to skip advertisements hands-free. To activate this, I simply say, "Alexa, up."

Note that Alexa support for Kodi (out of the box) is limited but usable with a little patience. This adjustment made it almost perfect!

Tested under Leia и Matrix

Can it be used with Kodi v21 "Omega"? Are there possibilities to update the project to support it?

thanks in advance.

I answer myself: It works perfectly with the latest version of Kodi (Omega 21.1).

I finally managed to activate the library autoclean on an Android TV where it was impossible to access the program folder manually.

Thanks a lot.
