On Kodi v20.3 for Android TV (Google TV on Chromecast) the add-on doesnt work. Toggling on gives error message.

Did you enable the Android & Embedded Systems Workaround from the addon settings?

Nevermind its working. It throws an error when you toggle in app settings but it still works. I thought the app removed black bars that were also burned into the video, but that appears its not the case.

What error do you get when you toggle?

It does, is your Android TV connected to internet? What film/episode is it not working for? Does it give any notification?

robmausser commented 9 months ago

It doesn't for streaming stuff like this

It probably can't get metadata properly for something like this and would need a screenshot, which I understand isn't possible on Android.

No worries

Ah, yes. That's a technical limitation. I do need to include that on the addon description.

Yup
