Agree, there should be some smarter way of doing this. Doesn't kodi restarts faster than 7 seconds?

Or like trogggy suggested:

kodi-send -a "ReloadSkin()"

Then I'm sorry I have no idea. I just tested on Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS and it starts with and without sudo.

Maybe someone who understand Linux internals more will step up. I assume it has something to do with X server or something like that.

Does this work?

ping localhost
sudo ping localhost

Try putting restart command

systemctl restart kodi

in some shell script (for example /storage/restart_kodi.sh)

and then restart kodi from kodi itself with command

systemd-run /storage/restart_kodi.sh

Maybe there is some better solution.

In keyboard.xml it needs to be used like

<some_key>System.Exec("systemd-run,/storage/restart_kodi.sh")</some_key>

The problem with your script is probably that when you want to close dialog the dialog is not even shown yet. You should add some sleep before it (around 4 seconds).

Maybe this could also help you? Basic skin changing script

Well, you posted such code on kodi forum

You have a typo: xmbc must be xbmc:

if xbmc.getCondVisibility('Player.HasMedia'):

Create installer stick, open syslinux.cfg, change DEFAULT installer to DEFAULT run and boot.

It should be part of network-tools addon.

Quote from gbi

what is the curl cmd to do a channelswitch ?

curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"Player.Open","params":{"item":{"channelid":1088}}}' http://127.0.0.1:80/jsonrpc

Script could be smarter to check if pvr is ready and nit hardcoded time.

Maybe it is something wrong with required channel id? Does it switch to it with curl command?

Well, I'm not sure what you are doing but works perfectly fine for me. It is probably wrong approach but it works. Also sleep works as you can see:

And you expect that edit4ever will see it

Why not write in his thread to enhance the only addon exists? Until someone write something new.

Then you should write your opinion in this thread. Opening one new one without even describing issues is not really a productive.

Did you even look what I posted in post #2? tvh2kodi addon - configure tvheadend from kodi interface

And you are using tvheadend?

Like this for tvheadend?

But this doesn't help with your problem - it just shows my perspective and view on libreelec.

Anyway, can you try without sudo?

CvH: You should read my last post regarding such problems and me
