Windows UWP - Widevine

[Munnday]

With UWP, Widevine downloads to %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\XBMCFoundation.Kodi_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\LocalCache\Roaming\Kodi\cdm

It appears when Aussie addons is attempting to load the library its looking in %appdata%Roaming\Kodi\cdm\

Also, ssd_wv is trying to download from https://github.com/xbmc-catchuptv-au/repo-binary/raw/master/Krypton/windows-x86-ssd_wv-9af2121.dll which dosn't exist

Hi David, I've just bought an Xbox recently for working on this stuff. Did you manage to make this work with the UWP version on Windows? Did it actually load the libraries?

cheers, Andy

Haven't had a great chance to debug things yet, The libraries appeared to download, well the windevine did, but ssd_vw dosn't due to 404

widevine library did download though, to the UWP roaming path of %LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\XBMCFoundation.Kodi_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\LocalCache\Roaming\Kodi\cdm\widevinecdm.dll

I'm keen to get this fixed up if possible. I think I've got the 404 bit sorted.

You can grab the ssd_wv DLL from https://github.com/aussieaddons/repo-binary/raw/master/Krypton/windows-x86-libssd_wv-9af2121.dll

If you put them all in the right place, does it work?

Renaming to ssd_vw.dll and putting the in cdm folder with widevinecdm.dll? If so, then it appears to be happy, dosn't attempt to download it and no errors in the log regarding.

widevinecdm.dll not loading due to the location error

OK that's good news.

It appears that the CDM path is set within Inputstream.adaptive, and not set by us at all. It defaults to 'special://home/cdm' and is configured in the inputstream.adaptive add-on settings.

I wonder if this is bug for them.

@glennguy is my man for Windows stuff. He might be able to help out here.

I see. It looks like Kodi dosn't have a special:// path for the roaming path of the UWP app. hmmm!
