I don't know what it could be. I don't have that problem. Is this how you open a movie from hdd?

Yes. Thats exactly how ive been trying to open movies that are not scanned to library. Tried 'Play' option. Tried 'Play from here' option. Neither option will play the file. The loading spinner shows and then nothing happens.

Movies that ive already scanned to library i can open the normal way by just clicking on the cover art. They work fine that way. Its just unscanned movies that dont play.

I don't understand how it works for me. The same is, this tv shows are not in local library.

In short - scanned movies play. Unscanned movies dont play.

Just installed DailyMotion video add-on from the official Kodi Repo just to test if it would play any files. Same thing happens. It tries to open - loading spinner shows - and then it fails to play. Did the same with default Kodi theme Estuary enabled, everything opens and plays fine. Its something within this skin that prevents non-scanned to library video files from opening.
