This TV28.db-journal is not restricted to these builds or to the Pi. I saw it on last nights OS X build as well. That build, by the way, is also missing several PVR add ons, so that also, is a general issue.

If you've still got your TV27* db files, you should attach them to PR6621 for further investigation.

[doveman2]

I got stuck on the isengard screen with #307 but was able to access the Pi v2 over SMB nonetheless, so copied the #308b tar to the Update folder. I tried twice but both times it gave an error about either SYSTEM or KERNEL md5 being missing/wrong so wouldn't update.

So I copied the files manually after putting the uSD in my PC but I'm still stuck on the bootscreen with #308b installed.

My TV26, TV27 and TV28.db files are all 36KB and TV28.db-journal is 17KB.

Here's my debug Kodi.log: http://pastebin.com/acTrp5xj

Another stuck TV27 to TV28 upgrade - please upload your TV27 details to PR6621 (ie. upload the TV27 database(s) to dropbox etc., add the download link to PR6621).

Done, thanks.

@doveman2: thanks, although unfortunately your "debug" log doesn't actually have debug enabled. You can enable debug while booting an earlier build (#0304) then upgrading to #0309, or add <loglevel>2</loglevel> to advancedsettings.xml then try booting #0309 again (remove any TV28.db* files first).

[Milhouse]

Edit 2: So basically deleting the previous TV database files makes it work again, but it still sometimes auto reboots while scanning for IPTV channels (building the TV28.db file maybe?). Maybe this is related to the IPTV PVR addon, but I'm reporting it to you anyway because it may not be an addon issue too.

debug log and kodi_crashlog required (uploaded to pastebin, of course ).

Oops! There I was thinking I was so clever that I edited guisettings.xml to <extralogging default="true">true</extralogging>

EDIT: Right, got it this time! I've updated the link in my github post: http://pastebin.com/VWpLMdaB

Currently, nothing seems to be happening at all when I try to select a recording. I don't think Kodi is even attempting to connect to the windos machine this time around.

Did you enable debug logging?

I can't check anything right now because I switched back to 5.0.5 Official for the evening. My wife lets me get away with testing some stuff "in production so to speak", but not being able to play recordings is a deal breaker for her. I only have one Pi 2 so I'll have to wait until bed time to switch back to #308b.

Appreciate the testing, but contacting the pvr.wmc addon author is going to be the most effective route to a solution.

I updated to #309 this morning, but no magic happened.

I enabled logging and also enabled specific logging for samba (I think I did anyway, it's orange now), after that I rebooted.
Here is the log file:

http://sprunge.us/QKUP

At 42.154xxx seconds I pressed OK on Recordings.
The page loaded with my series listings

At 46.236xxx seconds I pressed OK on the first listed entry (series)
Nothing happens but whoosh sound

At 49.xxxxxx seconds the PVR addon is called again to refresh channels, timers and recordings (this happens every 10 seconds apparently)

From my interpretation, the PVR addon doesn't seem to receive anything when a series is selected, nor does samba spit anything out. I don't get the list of individual shows within the series which seems kind of odd.

Everything else done with the addon seems to work just like it always did. I will go ahead an post into the WMC forum to see if they know anything. Thanks again for your help, it's greatly appreciated.

BTW, I don't get any hangs when I change the workgroup from WORKGROUP to N5QMG, but even though the gui shows the change (and I rebooted as well), the samba log file still says that it is becoming the master browser for WORKGROUP. I'm not sure what to do about that.

EDIT: I learned that I needed to edit /storage/.config/samba.conf (after copying samba.conf.example to a new file named samba.conf) to make change the workgroup from WORKGROUP to MYWORKGROUPNAME. Sorry to have bothered anyone with this, I'm still trying to adjust to the system layout and methodology.

I opened this thread about the issue with not being able to select/view recording with the pvr.mythtv plugin:

http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=220888

Looks like one of the plugin maintainers thinks this is an issue with Kodi itself. I posted in the Kodi application forum, so hopefully someone replies and the issue is resolved so that fix can be included in the RPi/RPi2 builds.

Thanks, ping me (or post here) if something turns up although I try and keep on top of the Kodi pull requests and include anything that looks interesting, useful or needs testing.

By the way, trac is here and is the current place to create a "ticket" for Kodi bugs. Have a search of it first in case a ticket for the same bug already exists.

[zaphod24]

Thanks! I didn't find anything describing my issue so I opened up ticket 15848.

Build Highlights:

1. New firmware
   
2. Experimental MVC 3D support - needs testing:
   

   I've added a gui option (in video/acceleration settings) "Support MVC video (full frame 3D)". For testing purposes this will default to on.
   Note: This is experimental. It will affect all H.264 video content, although should be harmless when the video is not MVC.
   
   Start with your 3D BluRay ISO file. Run makemkv on it and be sure to enable the "MVC-3D" stream (this is currently required as ffmpeg doesn't support MVC in ISO).
   
   The mkv video file needs to be marked as 3D, so either name it as 3D.SBS, or use video OSD settings to mark it as SBS (or TAB).
   Now the video file should be played in a half-SBS (or half-TAB) mode.
   
   If anyone has any MVC files, I'd be interested in the results of your testing.
   
   This is stage one. It is possible to output a full resolution frame packed 3D mode over HDMI (I have this working with command line omxplayer),
   and having this working will be the next stage. However getting the GUI to do something sensible in this mode will require more work.

I've noticed something odd today. (using RPi1 B+)

Using #0309, i cannot select subtitle add-ons from the system-settings-video-subtitles section.
When i try to add them using system-settings-add-ons, they will install, but cannot be selected in system-settings-video-subtitles.
Reverting to #0304 resolved all problems.

Also, i still cannot use the VU+/Enigma2 PVR add-on, the add-on will not start, because of dll errors.

[Milhouse]

Note that with the next build, PR6306 will no longer be reverted as subsequent commits (ie. PR6675) have made this impossible/impractical in which case some PVRs will most likely be broken again (ie. crashing). This issue is awaiting a fix - please contact the addons maintainer for further details.

Seems to be working for me (#0310).

I installed the Subscene.com subtitle addon, and could then select this addon in System->Settings->Video->Subtitles for Movies.

I also added OpenSubtitles.org as a second subtitle addon, and could select either subtitle addon in System->Settings->Video->Subtitles for Movies.

I would suggest trying with a fresh .kodi in case this is a settings/addon issue.

One annoying behaviour is that having selected a subtitle addon, it's not possible to revert the selection back to "None" without disabling/uninstalling the currently selected subtitle addon, although this is probably more a case of bad UI design than outright bug.

Also, i still cannot use the VU+/Enigma2 PVR add-on, the add-on will not start, because of dll errors.

debug log (wiki)?

I'd say contact the addon author but the Enigma2 sub-forum looks like a total wasteland - is this addon being actively supported?
