I really think this is a great addition to the Kodi h/w family and thank everyone involved for all work in getting it here. I do have a few questions
1. Why are logs here outside of Kodi
2020-12-07 14:39:07.167 T:10140 INFO <general>: Log File is located: /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/kodi.log
and not
2020-12-07 14:39:07.164 T:10140 INFO <general>: special://temp/ is mapped to: /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/Kodi/temp
2. Is trace level logging the default? I can't find an advancedsettting.xml that turns this on.
2020-12-07 14:39:07.449 T:10140 INFO <general>: Log level changed to "TRACE"
3. I use a BT keyboard and I don't see the number keys in PVR (I use these to change channels) is that platform specific? I don't see any keyboard handing in the debug logs
Thanks again for a nice app.

Thanks for getting back to me.
1. Yes, no real problem with the location it just seemed like an odd spot when I was trying to find it. I will see if the log uploader finds it.
2. It was beta2 org.xbmc.kodi-tvos_19.0-0~b2-tvos.deb I typically turn it on anyway, just found it odd hardcoded. Main reason for looking is to see if I can get key presses to register for my other question.

Completely agree with you! I will try to check again in some weeks if nobody look at it.

I checked the nightly deb file and it is has the correct version check. I installed it and it still give me the version check error?

Yes, a lot of keyboard control isn't working with Kodi on tvOS ATM. You only have the arrow keys, enter key and maybe ESC or something like that to go back in a menu.
But the Siri remote works ;-)

Even with the Siri remote I see the same symptoms with music. There is no Enter, clicking (long/short) on the screen does nothing, so I can't activate Visualization or stop and Menu takes me out with music in background. I have to exit or start TV which does stop with the Menu key.

Did you try to fix your issue with a custom keymap?

Since there is no logging of key presses in the TRACE level logging I don't know how to go about that. userdata/keymaps is empty too so I don't know what to change and what the defaults are.
I found customcontroller.SiriRemote.xml and editing that I can do what I want, added a Visualization and can select with with a blank screen Thanks for pointing me in the correct directionn

Perfect if your problem is solved thanks to the sirirmote keymap ;-)
The tvOS wiki section needs a full update... I started working on it but I need more time to continue, maybe in 2021 :-P

Partially solved. I still need to see if the BT keyboard can work. Is there a difference between these. The notes says they are logged to /var/log/syslog but nothing there or in /private/var/log.
