Playlist Trouble

[Rasmussen]

Well, I enabled debug, and I can't really see the difference between Kodi (which doesn't do the playlist correctly) and PlugPlayer (which does). All I can see is that Kodi asks for an item which doesn't exist. Nor can I see why Kodi gets it wrong when playing the item from the playlist, but not when it plays the same item directly. I suppose I don't know what to look for.

Can you zip the log files (important to save space on the forum server) and attach them to a post here?

To create a suitable log file, click 'Save as' from the log window after the item has failed to play or has started playing sucessfully.

[Rasmussen]

The archive log.zip contains four text files (utf-8, LF line breaks):

log1-kodi-playlist.txt Kodi skipping items in a playlist
log2-kodi-item.txt Kodi playing one of those items when selected directly
log3-asset-playlist.txt Asset Control playing the same playlist w/o skipping
log4-plug-playlist.txt PlugPlayer playing the same playlist w/o skipping

Where is the archive log.zip file? Did you intend to attach it to your post? To do this, you need to click Add Attachment as well as New Attachment/Browse.

Sorry, I was in a rush and didn't pay attention. It should be attached now.

Thanks very much! This confirms that Kodi is sending a Browse request for the playlist. Please can you repeat this log only (log1 in the zip file) with the logging level set to Trace. Many thanks.

[Rasmussen]

Done.

Thanks for this log and for the quick response. This looks like a bug in MinimServer. I will investigate and post back here when I have more information. Many thanks for helping me find this problem.

Are the items that don't play in Kodi part of a MinimServer group?

[Rasmussen]

Yes. The only item on the playlist that plays is the item which is not in a MinimServer group.
