HDR Info passed to Kodi

[mcarlton00]

Ah.  Previous me made it autodetect the highest version file and automatically use that so it's not hardcoded anymore.  Thanks, previous me.  In that case it should just work.  Maybe the newest nightlies have a bug that'll be fixed, or they've actually changed something we'll need to look into.

For what it's worth, Kodi is on Beta 2 right now.

Yep I'm aware, we just haven't heard any major issues with the new version so it hasn't gotten much attention from our side.  At least one person on the team was running one of the betas and nobody has screamed yet.  This is the first one that I'm aware of.

I've upgraded to the latest nightly again and reproduced the empty Movies library - then enabled debug logging via advancedsettings.xml and restarted Kodi and saved the log file.

Do you want me to attach it here for the timebeing to look at before I look at raising a bug report on github? or I could wait a few days for the next nightly and see if this may just be a bug or an actual change.

Cheers

from the log you wouldn't think anything went wrong but it sure is broken, so, confirmed

i plugged in my rocktek, updated to the same nightly version, inititally everything seemed fine so i set out to break it
(made a backup) performed a local database reset from within the addon, kodi restarted i resynced and then everything went x.x
kodi was freezing, at least ssh was usuable, checked the database and all the entries in "movies" is there but the "movie_view" is empty
so i copied that view's SQL statement, ran it, returns 0 rows - so this is where the issue is, something with the latest video version stuff i suspect

i noticed kodi had left a MyVideos128 next to MyVideos129, i checked that file and the "movie_view" shows all of its records as it should

as a workaround i renamed 129 to 129-old, moved 128 to 129 and restarted kodi from systemctl, kodi didn't start so i unplugged the box and now it works

all that to say, well yea, it's broken but if you're into breaking things you can try and see how the MyVideos128 performs in place of MyVideos129 but it's not a fix

So I installed kodi-nexus-git from the aur, and after many hours of compiling, found out it's not current.  Looks to be from December 22.  Issue wasn't present there.

So then I started trying to build Kodi manually, and it failed because they appear to be requiring C++ version 14 to build, which isn't available yet.

Code:

/usr/include/absl/base/policy_checks.h:79:2: error: #error "C++ versions less than C++14 are not supported."
  79 | #error "C++ versions less than C++14 are not supported."

So I won't be able to verify myself until I find one of my Pis, which I've misplaced somewhere while remodeling the house.

This is why I don't chase upstream and only test against their official "please test this" releases.

Also, this has outgrown the original purpose of this thread.  I'd suggest we either move this discussion to it's own thread in https://forum.jellyfin.org/f-kodi-development or to github

Is there a new Jellyfin Plugin that will feature this functionalilty coming out soon

not until the PR is merged https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-kodi/pull/804 (current state open means not in main code)

or is there a way for me to be on cutting edge features?

add the changes from the PR to your local version of the addon, it's just plain text python https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-kod.../804/files

Hi, I noticed the HDR tag missing as well when I switched from MariaDB to Jellyfin last week as the backbone for Kodi.
Is there anything we can do so that this gets incorporated?

I’ll change the code for now, thanks for this!

Any chance to see the same HDR badges when using Jellycon?
