I am seeing a problem with 3.6.26 (and possibly with 3.6.25 but unconfirmed as yet) where the next episode widget is not being updated after an episode is played). I don't see any log messages indicating an error (or any other activity as the episode is finished being watched, but the widgetcache-NEXTEPISODES.json file in the skin helper service does not get updated. In fact it will not be updated (regardless of how many shows are watched) until the file is manually removed and kodi restarted -- just restarting kodi has no effect. Kodi definitely recognises that the episode has been watched.

This issue has already been fixed in latest update

confirmed working in the latest (44) skin helper.

However, I am also noticing that the widget for PVR recent recordings does not seem to launch the video when selected. It updates fine, but doesn't play ;-).

3.6.27 seems to have reintroduced the 'next episode' bug. (Same version 44 for the helper). PVR recent recordings is still broken as well, but I am not sure you had that on your radar yet ...

thanks!

Followup: I removed the cache again, forced an update of the skin and helper, and retried watching a new episode. This time, the widget updated. I'm not sure if the problem is intermittent or if some clean up was required. I'll post if the problem surfaces again.
