Hi Lunatixz,
I downloaded PseudoTV Live as a workaround because Kodi does not support Pause/Resume on Playlists/Folders. I have a lot of video courses on various subjects. Ussually a video course is a folder containing 1-20 sequential video lessons. I wanted to play the course and be able to stop anytime and resume couple days later from exact same minuteecond within the sequence of video lesson files. So far I didnt find a single Android app to support this "basic" feature - to Pause/Resume a playlist.
I play the videos on a TV using a Xiaomi Mi TV Stick (Androind 9 TV dongle similar to Google Fire TV Stick) I have the courses on a 3TB PC HDD with SAMBA sharing enabled.
This is what i do:
1) In Kodi File manager setup source smb://10.10.10.xxx pointing to the PC SAMBA share
- i can play individual videos in Kodi from the smb:// source subfolders - so SMB access works in Kodi
2) In PseudoTV Live iam able to use this SMB source in Channel 1
3) PseudoTV Live shows notification that its indexing the channel
4) I never see anything in "TV" section of Kodi
The Android TV stick has no memory so I need to use PseudoTV Live with network source (PC Samba). Does PseudoTV Live support videos on SMB shares ?
I dont know how to enable logging to see whats happening why I dont see anything in TV section of Kodi
Can you help me please thanks.
I tested several players for Android that support Samba (Kodi, VLC, Plex, Archos, Nova, MX) and none of them support pause/resume on PLAYLISTS / FOLDERS
So your addon looks like the only solution on the market !!!
