Kodi doesn't launch after install

[calijoe]

Hi,

I've made a fresh install of Kodi on OpenVIX 6.3, but I've found that install process stopped abpruptly after 10 seconds. After that, when I try to start Kodi from the launcher, a black screen appear for 2-3 seconds, but Kodi didn't start. I had the same problem with Kodi on OpenVIX 6.2, and I really need to find a solution.

I've tried to look in kodi logs (/tmp/kodi/), but nothing interesting there. Also nothing in the logs for the box (no error during install, no error during launch).

Hi,
activate debug logs, then deinstall, reinstall and start kodi.

Nothing works. Here are a part of the logs that could be relevant:

for module 'ScreenSummary'.

Receiver ?

[calijoe]

It's a "Vu+ Duo4K"

Reflash and try again.

[calijoe]

I've reflashed, but for nothing. The only difference is that install process take longer after fresh install.
Here what I've done: immediately after reflash, I've installed Kodi and restarted, but same problem as before.

That’s what use to happen to me using my vu ultimo resever after that I gave up using Lodi after I messed abaut with it for 6 month I doesn’t work beleave me it’s not worth ur time using it

[RoarP]

On my Vu+Duo4kSE, kodi 20.0 is working, but I use OpenVix 6.3.002.

Anybody know if Kodi 20.1 is ready for OpenVIX ?

[deltec]

If I were I I would not bother with Jodi brlive me it’s a waste of time I’ve been there take a hint

[calijoe]

Having a newer version is nice, but a WORKING version is better! How is it possible to contact OpenVIX developers to report the bug?

This is an OE-A plugin, not provided by the OpenViX developers.

[calijoe]

Thanks, but on the gitHub page (https://github.com/oe-alliance/oe-alliance-plugins), I don't see Kodi, so my question remain...

On my Vu+Duo4kSE, kodi 20.0 is working, but I use OpenVix 6.3.002.

Anybody know if Kodi 20.1 is ready for OpenVIX ?no. We are only going to update kodi once per version.

I tried kodi today in the latest release image and it downloads, installs and starts.

If anyone has a problem with kodi please complain to the plugin authors. This is not our problem.

[deltec]

Kodi might down load and start but it dose not work I’ve tried it over and over again it dose not work believe me there’s nothing rong with the image at all

[Mundosat]

I guess I have to get a KODI only receiver then or use a PC, pfff

[deltec]

I would if I was u honest regards deltec I used it so many times on liniux vu box’s and found out there do not work

[newlistener]

There are many problems with kodi on stb
Failure to start is due to a bug in file
/usr/bin/kodi
change find home path routine and put
your PATH by hand.
The players hiplayer e2player etc are limited they do
not display PVR addons.
The only solution add to the internal kodi player
an output to stb output /dev/dvb/adapter0/*
I am working on it but sitting for a while with the right pes in the
stream.
