This might be a lost cause, but this is the error message I'm getting when trying to run this on my Nvidia Shield via Samba on my Linux machine.

python:
$ ./texturecache.py s "Ragnarok"

FATAL: The task you wish to perform requires read/write file

       access to the Kodi SQLite3 Texture Cache database.



       The following SQLite3 database could not be opened:

       smb://192.168.1.128/internal/Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/Database/Textures13.db



       Check settings in properties file texturecache.cfg,

       or upgrade your Kodi client to use a more recent

       version that supports Textures JSON API.

Your path specification is wrong! Just comment out the paths in the texturecache.cfg with "#", you don't need that, because you are directly in the right path via RPC-Call ;-)

Everything back to default, then it will work:

Code:

#userdata = ~/.xbmc/userdata/
#dbfile = Database/Textures13.db
#thumbnails = Thumbnails/
