Sorry for being so inept, but following installation instructions I was able to create account on kodi connect server. But unsure of the second step of installing the kodi connect add-on in my kodi instance. Did not see any installation instructions in the link.
I presumed it would be install from zip from within kodi, but that did not work. Am using kodi version 17.6
Thanks

Seem to be having issues with this since the new skill update.
Example - I ask for Boss Baby, Alexa says "playing Boss Baby" then plays Murder On The Orient Express. I've tried a couple of different films and it often plays Murder On The Orient Express for some reason. Despite Alexa confirming something different.
Any ideas?

Sorry had wrong version downloaded. Was able to start and stop several movies, will test further after familiarizing myself with the commands.
Thanks for your help, and for this skill. Hoping music control will be added in the future. If not it is still a very useful skill.

Tomas,
Thank you so much for this Skill and the work you have done to date. It is excellent.
I do have a problem with stopping the programme when it is running, currently it only pauses. Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Tomas
I have a second kodi that uses the UPNP library from the first kodi to present what TV Series have not been watched.
When I use you skill on the second kodi setup it does not find any TV series to play from the UPNP.
I know the setup works as I've created a local library of TV series and it finds and plays well.
Is this something you are looking to incorporate at a later date or is it technically impossible?
Thanks
Nigel

I've noticed that when you exit kodi, the system hangs, I have reinstalled and it only seems to happen when the kodi connect addon is installed. Have you experienced this before?
