Can anyone with .57D get directories to work as channels

They work fine. If you try to use the same settings2.xml you used with PTV (without L) you need to slightly edit the paths by adding a backslash at the end of them.

Hi! Just upgraded from Frodo to Helix, PTVL works fine with my old settings2.xml almost flawlessly. Options 'Play shows in order' and 'Even show distribution' don't work. I put that file away, created a new configuration within the GUI, I set only one channel with those aforementioned options, still no luck. Can someone point me to the right direction?

Thanks to the developers for this outstandig plugin, I use Kodi only because of PTV(L-now).

What is your video source? Just local files from your library? I have some channels setup with "play shows in order" and it's working great.

I've tried both local and remote (SMB share) files. If I create a new channel with only one TVShow, plugin sorts the episodes in order. But if I create a channel with TVGenre I get random episodes.
I reverted back to a previous system image from backup, PTV on Frodo works just fine. I will play with Helix and PTVL on a test machine, maybe this issue will be fixed.
