Incompatible with Kodi 20 (Nexus)? #82

Closed probonopd closed 1 year ago

probonopd commented 1 year ago

When I try to install plugin.video.invidious-1.0.27.zip on Kodi 20.0a3-Nexus, then Kodi immediately uninstalls it, claiming it to be incompatible with the system. I am running a LibreELEC nightly build with Python 3.9.14.

By pure chance digging around I found https://github.com/lekma/repository.lekma/tree/master/nexus.

But even that one can't be activated, Kodi also says it is incompatible.

It would be good if the nexus builds would also be uploaded to https://github.com/lekma/plugin.video.invidious/releases, and/or the situation be documented in https://github.com/lekma/plugin.video.invidious/blob/master/README.md.

you should try to install from the repo

lekma commented 1 year ago

did you solve it?

probonopd commented 1 year ago

No, because I fail installing the repo. Unpacking its zip in the plugins directory did not add the repo to Kodi. Would be nice to have instructions on how to install the repo (over ssh, as adding repos via the Kodi GUI without a proper keyboard is more than cumbersome).

just putting an addon in .kodi/addons won't enable it. vnc over ssh?

Thank you very much, got it to work:

ssh root@libreelec.local.

# LibreELEC (community): nightly-20220918-bb49fdc (AMLGX.arm)

cd ~/.kodi/addons/
rm -rf repository.lekma*
wget "https://github.com/lekma/repository.lekma/releases/download/4.0.1/repository.lekma-4.0.1.zip"
unzip repository.lekma-4.0.1.zip 
killall kodi.bin

Then enabled the repository in the KODI GUI, and installed Invidious from there.

It is working now :+1:
