I forgot to say I was aware of no /opt in LE. The example I gave was on another Ubuntu machine for testing since I was thinking it might be a LE limitation.

On LE I was actually using /storage/,kodi/addon_data/script.module.zap2epg. I had the same result there. For testing sake everything is set to 777.

I did figure out that on LE to cd to /storage/.kodi I had to do cd ~/.kodior cd $HOME/.kodi

I seem to have found the problem: the \r that somehow got in. I thought notepad++ and nano didn't add that.

the new script is after I ran it through dos2unix

#!/bin/bash

# Change directory to /opt/zap2
cd "$HOME/zap2" || { echo "Error: Could not change directory"; exit 1; }

# Execute the Python3 script (assuming it's named zap2_script.py)
python3 zap2epg.py || { echo "Error: Python script failed"; exit 1; }

# Script exits successfully
exit 0

That is not the problem. I haven't got to the cron part yet. I know how to do that.

the script is simple

/opt/zap2/zap.sh:

#!/bin/bash

cd /opt/zap2

python3 zap2epg.py

I have fixed zap2epg, it runs fine from the directory.

The script will not do the cd, I have tried source /opt/zap2/zap.sh

the error is -bash: cd: $'/opt/zap2\r': No such file or directory

The script was generated on notepad ++ and a try on nano

If I am in the directory and run the script the python runs.

I am trying the cd into /storage/.kodi/userdata to run a python app. I can do it with a cli command.

cd /storage/.kodi/userdata

fails with a no such directory error.

what do I need to do?

I can cd and execute the python script using a ssh cli just will not work with a shell script that I want to run with cron. If I run the script in the directory the shell script will execute the python script . CD is the problem not python.

Quote from Hagertyoh

I updated edit4ever’s addon to work with nexus. It can be accessed on GitHub.

That seems to be working now. Just remember to disable tvheadend in settings if you are not using it or it will throw errors.

Since I have zap2xml working, I will leave it until I feel like fiddling with it. It is not difficult to setup zap2xml, finding it on the web is a challenge.

Long dead thread but it comes up in GoOgle search.

The original zap2xml now lives at the Wayback Machine https://web.archive.org/web/2020042600…wardspace.info/

The addon needs some modifications to work in Kodi 20 Nexus and 19.4 Matrix.

So, I use zap2xml.pl as a stand alone on my Linux entertainment server running by cron and using tv_grab_file to import into tvheadend, NextPVR can just import the xmltv file.

I found that when using a VPN that puts you in Europe you need to go into zap2xml.pl and change all instances of tvlistings.zap2it.com" to "tvschedule.zap2it.com" and go to tvschedules.zap2it to setup your favorites. Evidently, there is geoblocking.

I use this command line:

/opt/zap2xml/zap2xml.pl -C /opt/zap2xml/zap2xmlrc

My zap2xmlrc file is from https://forums.plex.tv/t/how-to-use-z…-sources/326140 :

Yes, it is back.

The Kodi forum has been down for at least a week, or I would have posted there. Thought maybe the dev would see it here.

I just thought maybe passwords were interconnected somehow.

Yesterday morning the Youtube app was working. Yesterday afternoon It started throwing a "the following content is not available on this app" and Tubed gives me a "exceeded quota error" after logging in with Google. I have been using a private API key and client ID with Youtube, I checked, they are still valid.

I am guessing this is because of the data breech over at Kodi. Any other clues?

In previous versions of Kodi the "View options" applied to the area you are in. I.E.: library, source etc.

In L.E. 10/Kodi 19 the "View options" seem to be universal. If I change the view to "Wall"/"Watched" in the TV Shows view that also changes the source view and every other view. Thing is I am used to going to the Library and seeing only Unwatched then going to the Source and seeing All. The menu button displays different options. Minor thing.

Is this intended behavior, some setting I can't find, known issue etc?

Is this a "bug" that needs reporting?

Kodi 19.0.0 Matrix

I knew it was simple!

Thank you

I seem to be the only one, so it must be something really simple.

I just upgraded my RPi 4b 1 gb tO LE9.95.1 Via fresh install.

Problem: When I try to login to a addon by email the onscreen keyboard does not include a @ at all, the alternate keyboard has a bunch of special character, maybe Greek?

All of my settings are for English,USA. keyboard is set to us in LE settings. Tried uk with same result.

Any advice?

In my case it is my TV. It was "HD ready" not "HD". Very early in the US changeover. No CEC, no overscan, just aspect; the tuner defaults to analog, there is no "." on the remote; I have to go to the analog number then push the channel up to get the digitals.

Hias will hopefully help you soon. I am a proven dummy at this.

That is weird. Try this

The important part is this: Does it work if you append video=HDMI-A-1:1920x1080M@60 to cmdline.txt?

RE: getting log files

I just minutes ago resolved a similar prob; see if this helps
