Now that I can use rclone with Kodi Matrix I'm moving from Leia to Matrix.
I just want to double check a few things.
1. the latest version that works with Matrix is 1.6.4, correct?
2. Are you aware of any incompatibility with the latest python Kodi is using? 3.8.5?
3. I guess it will need the addition python zip file for zip support when restoring? And that file isn't compatible with python 3.8.5.. so.. better not use compress archive with matrix, right?
And finally, 1.6.4 to create, use 1.6.4 to restore and it should work?

Hi I'm using Shield Pro 2019 and Kodi Matrix Beta 2 and Backup version 1.6.4 installed from the official repo. I browsed the remote path to an external drive, but when I hit backup it just gives me BACK UP ERROR: CHECK THE LOG FOR MORE INFORMATION. Thank you

Using the Backup add on on Kodi 18.9 and the same addon on Kodi 19.0 beta.
When I try to restore my backup, the addon prompts me of the different version between the two Kodis and ask me if to proceed.
When I click YES then it encounters an error but I don’t know where the log is to post here.
My 18.9 is tweaked and has many addons and I would hate to reconfigure everything. I really need to restore my setup to Kodi 19.0
Can anyone help?

Hi
I have a Nvidia Shield TV Pro with Kodi + external drive
I want to use the backup addon in order I can replicate/sync my settings on all my devices (shield, PCs, tablets).
The issue is when I backup, the external drive is known as « F:\ » from my PC while on Nvidia Shield, it is known as « /storage/706CB1316DB1F2C8 ». Then obviously it does not work : the path is unknown from one device to one other.
any idea to have my Nvidia Shield see the external drive as « F:\ » or any other suggestion ?
thx

There's been an issue recently with the mirror servers not serving up some dependencies correctly (it seems perhaps due to how the versioning numbers were set on some addons, including idna).
Apparently it has now been resolved, so once everything sync's up again properly, it should work properly again (*crosses fingers*).

The same problem continues.
It seems that amsaad13's manual solution solves for now
