Widevine on x86 cant install

Hello,

I have 2 Libreelec x86 boxes at home. Today I realized that on one of my boxes Widevine got messed up and won't even re-install.

I have tried to read all threads related to Widevine but I could not find a remedy to my problem.

It seems that Libreelec is looking for Widevine in the wrong path /usr/lib/kodi/addons instead of /storage/.kodi/cmd

Please let me know if you have any ideas

Maybe one box went to safe mode (power issue etc.), and you just have to reboot.

I have rebooted several times, anything else I can do ?

Quote from mglae

Check both the script.module.inputstreamhelper and inputstream.adaptive settings.

What settings exactly should I check ?

inputstream.adaptive has no settings to configure

Where does the "/usr/lib/kodi/addons" path comes from? should be in a config file somewhere. I checked the settings.xml of inputstreamhelper and its not there

all settings are on default and "/usr/lib/kodi/addons" is nowhere in the settings
