So I downloaded the ZIP file for this tutorial and noticed that it has two files in it that don't need to be there (.gitignore and readme.md). I removed .gitignore from the ZIP file and then try to install the add-on but Kodi then says "Failed to install Add-on from zip file". Alright, now I turn on debugging to see what I'll find in the logs and try again. Unfortunately, the logs don't tell me anything useful as to why the add-on failed loding:
Why would deleting that one file cause the add-on to fail loading? Should I found more information in the logs than that?
I'm using Kodi 16.0 on Windows.
Thanks!
