Hello,
I have a kodi video addon, that does not work with video sources that are network drives selected from the kodi dialog (that is: they work if I mount the drive on the operating system, but not if I just browse them from kodi)
The Plugin is this: https://github.com/MarkusEh/plugin.video.vdr.recordings
I have python skills, but I lack the knowledge of the conventions in kodi to solve this.
I thought, that this patch would helb, but that is apparently not the case : https://github.com/MarkusEh/plugin.video...ngs/pull/1

What is required to ensure that all possible file-paths, that can be browsed in Kodi will also work in my addon?

Regards,
Hendrik

most likely, you'll want to use the xbmcvfs library:

Thanks,

in fact I did see that, but I only saw the Functions, but not the classes (in particular File).

Regards,
Hendrik
