I attempted to PR some of these changes years ago to the official add-on but never got any response
I therefore decided to fork and maintain my own version with the tweaks I like

Will take a look but I'm out of town ATM so kind of limited.  I did a hack (sort-of) on global search for a user to provide settings option to search all artists (i.e., role artists) or just performing artists for music.  I never got around to doing a PR as the source was on gitlab and while I did have an account I would have had to rework my git repo locally.  If interested I could probably fit it into a PR.

since you are king of streaming addons, any chance of expanding to search your installed addons or a justwatch api which would do the same?

I've had a global search tool in the Mezzmo Kodi addon (same as searching Kodi databases) for a number of years.  It's been pretty popular, if you want to get any ideas from it..  You can see how it works here and screenshots.  It supports being able to select by media type, and various attributes including artist, creator, album, description etc...  

Just an FYI for feature ideas.

Will there be support for webdav search?
Reply

Is that content available on WebDAV but not scanned into the Kodi library?

I don't know, is there a way to make it scan into library?
Reply
#12
Yes. I use WebDAV for my library. Just add it as a media source just like would with SMB etc. then scan it in to kodis library. Once it's in the library, the search will work
