[ubuntu-xbmc]

I'm getting "Skin Helper Service Widgets" (v1.0.38) errors and "TV Show - Next Aired" (v7.0.1) errors when I use Rapier v11.2.26 on 18.0rc5.2-Leia under Ubuntu 16.04.5. I can post a full log if it helps but the only thing I can find with 'grep -i error' of kodi.log is a repeating error (about 80 lines worth) every time I enter a submenu:

I posted on the Skin Helper development thread but didn't receive any responses. The Estouchy sub-forum said I could disable Skin Helper Service for Estouchy (which was true) but I'm now trying to resolve the errors with Rapier.

Searching on Google, I found this similar issue reported. That poster resolved it by updating Skin Helper Service to the latest version on marcelveldt's github. Doing that didn't help me and may have worsened the problem.

Any thoughts?

Hi ubuntu-xbmc.

Hmm... I have no idea about this error.
It seems related to the quick jump alphabet list provided by script.skin.helper.service.

You say it's happening in the home screen submenus?
Because that doesn't make much sense, as that feature is not used in the home screen at all.

I don't think it's skin related, but if there's anything I can do, please let me know.
