Hi dsenseb
What platform is your kodi running on ? There may be an easier way...
In my case:
kodi runs via OpenELEC (on an Intel NUC). My main desktop is a Windows machine. I have the NUC mapped as a network drive (to the desktop), and can do most maintenance tasks on kodi using familiar Windows tools.
For editing kodi's config & XML files, ALWAYS use Notepad++ (standard Notepad will mess up end-of-line characters). It goes without saying () to make a backup copy of anything before making changes.
The mods specified by Uukrul are quite simple to do (adding lines to existing code). Be sure to get yourself a personal Browser Key and OAuth Key/Secret before doing the v17 fix.
Hope this helps
