Which OTA device? HD Homerun?

I tried Docker - Pluto and Stirr, also PBS and Plex channels with no luck. Good to see ota is working and the skip forward during time shifting is also fixed and working great.

A release notes topic was created for the Kodi Add On. All notes will be published there from now on. You can go follow it here:

I tried this on 64 Bit Windows 10 on a Clean Install of KODI and the plugin crashes KODI instantly... as soon as I try to navigate within KODI.

What if you set the IP under addon settings?

New beta is recording TVE source. Thanks.

AS soon as I try to move around KODI to set IP KODI Crashes... cannot even get to the addon. I have to uninstall KODI and reinstall KODI works fine without addon.

My experience is when it crashes because it is on automatic, restart Kodi a couple times and eventually it won't crash right away. After a while it will crash once again. Setting it to your server ip address, rather than automatic, will stop the crashing.

Edit...I just got my first startup crash with the auto setting off and my ip address entered. Again, I was able to restart it a couple times and it will work.

Thanks ... but there is something wrong with the code that causes it to crash and needs to be looked at.

When it crashes, it seems to do it as it is loading the guide info.

Hi
For me recordings work ok, but kodi do not play any recordings.
Recordings play just fine on dedicated channels dvr app.

Kodi 19.1 running on nvidia shield.
Channels dvr server on Windows server 2019

Thank you

Need the kodi log to investigate.

Ok

Both recordings play fine on dedicated app on nvidia shield

I suggest starting from scratch if you are having issues and you want to test a newer beta.
Delete the Kodi user data folder and reboot device.
I realize this isn't an easy option for some because you will lose all your libraries and add-ons that are set up, but from my experience, this MAY be the only option to getting Channels working properly. YMMV.

It crashed on me and did not populate the guide did nothing.

Edit Working now autodiscovery did not work IP did work.
