Kodi Jellyfin and Up Next Kodi Plugin

[CeruleanRed]

Hi everyone,
I hope it's ok to post this here, as I went through the forums and GitHub pages of the other projects without much success. My setup consists of running Jellyfin in a docker container (latest version, linuxserver.io image) which then connects to an RPI4 running LibreELEC 12 and Kodi v21.0 via the Jellyfin for Kodi plugin. I also want to use the Up Next plugin for Kodi to be able to easily go the next episode when watching something. Now I had this exact same setup before v10.9.* came out only with LibreELEC 11 and Kodi 20 and it worked without issues. Currently however (after upgrading the Kodi for Jellyfin plugin to 1.0.3 to fix the database sync issues) the up next plugin seems to work somewhat sporadically. It will show the popup for the first episode, and sometimes for up to 3 episodes, but then the popup will not show up again, nor am I asked if I am still watching.

Here is a GitHub issue I found that seems to be very similar to my problem, except the original poster's issue seems to have been resolved by upgrading, whereas mine was caused by it

Thanks a lot for the awesome work you do.

I came across this issue when trying to identify my issue.
Jellyfin 10.9.9, Jellyfin for Kodi 1.0.4 and Kodi 21.

When using the native Kodi functionality to automatically play the next episode, it never does anything. Using the Up Next plugin, I've not had any issues with it showing the pop up.

However, I've basically never actually gotten it to play the next episode. It shows the preview correctly and once I click on it to play the next episode, I see a pop up in the top right that the playlist item couldn't be found and nothing happens.

Is this related? Has anyone else experienced anything like it?

So when it was broken on my end it would mostly not even show the popup. I am however not having this issue anymore since upgrading from 1.0.3 to 1.0.4. Since the error you're getting is saying that there isn't a next item to play in the playlist, I'm assuming that somehow the creation of said playlist isn't working as intended. Would you happen to have any error logs? Might be easier to debug that way.
