Well,, finally I adedd the new disk as a new source in the database and the problem is already solved.
Sorry....

I recently added a hard drive to Kodi and I copied all the series from the old drive. As the path and folder are differents to do not mix series with films, it no longer plays the series.
How can I change the path "by hand" without scraping the whole series again ? After scrapping for the first time I had to do quite a few modifications and I wouldn't want to lose them.
Thank you

Hi,
I have Kodi 18.2 Leia on LibreELEC 9.0.2 and after some years, today I added a new HDD to the system, making a total of 4 HDDs. If I want to add a new film to the database, I do the following:
- Copy the .mkv file to the HDD
- Go to the Kodi File Explorer
- Select the .mkv file with the right mouse button
- I press "change contents"
- I press "videos"
And at this point the films list is shown and if press the .mkv file I can download the film information from Internet to the database.
This is true with the old discs, but the new one after pressing "videos" nothing happens and the film is not added to the database and therefore I cannot download the film information from Internet.
Should I have some special operation with the new disk ?
Thank you!

Use wget to download the image at SSH session.
After two years I'll try again so, now I have 9.0.2, if I upgrade to 10.0 in this way, will I loose all the LibreELEC and Kodi database and configurations ?
On the other hand, if I download the USB creator the most upgraded version for my ODROID C-2 is the one that I already have (9.0.2) Does it means that this is the last compatible version with my hardware?

Well, reading some posts I found that the way to connect is:
root@<your.ip> and password.
I set a new password but when I type the password the message "Acces denied" is shown. This means that the connection is stablished and the user recognised but, what I cannot access if the password is correct?
-
Following the video steps, when I tried to login as root using PuTTY I get the message "No supported authentication methods available (server sent: publickey,keyboard-intractive)."
What can I do?
EDIT: Incredible! using the Windows Command (cmd) instead of PuTTY I connected without problems. It's crazy!
Problem solved, many thanks

Hi,
I have an ODROID C2 with LibreELEC 9.0.2 (Kodi Leia 18.2) and I don't why I cannot upgrade the Add-ons. It was working for two or three years without problems.
The message saying that there are new upgrades available is shown, but when I try to upgrade the add-ons, I get the message "Upgrade failed" (translated from Spanish, but should be a similar message). I checked the network connection an the clock and both are corrects.
I deleted the Addons.db and rebooted, but then I lost all the configurations (hopefully I have made a whole backup before and I restored the data). I also tried to upgrade LibreELEC to 9.2 but the Folder is empty ¿?
Is my version uncompatible with the actual add-ons? What can I do?
Thank you!

Just a question: Where the hell the update folder is?
I'm trying to upgrade from 8.2.5 to 9.0.2 on an ODROID C2 but I do not find this folder using the Kodi File Manager.
-
A backup of LibreELEC only consists of the several folders in the /storage partition. It does not handle the files on the system partition.
If you want to upgrade/downgrade, place the file in the .update folder and reboot.
Thank you for the information but I do not find this folder. I use File Manager in the Kodi settings. Is there another way to access to this folder?
-
It's incredible, if I install LibreELEC 8.2.5 it works without problems.
Once turned on I tried to restore my backup (9.0.2) but after the restoring process the version has not been upgarded and stills on 8.2.5.

I tried two different monitors directly connected to the Odroid, two different HDMI cables, several microSD and eMMC cards unsucessfully
LibreELEC, CoreELEC and Ubuntu 16 do not works but Ubuntu 18 and Ubuntu 20 correctly works. It's crazy!!!
I also start thinking that it's a very strange hardware failure...

Anybody home?

After some changes on the Multimedia equipments at home Kodi don't starts on my O-DROID C2.
During the startup you can see the LibreELEC 9.0.2. logo as usual but later the screen becomes dark and you only see a black arrow on it. As I have a Logitech keboard connected I can move the arrow around the screen but that's all. Kodi never runs.
I formated and installed again LibreELEC 9.0.2 in the eMMC card unsuccesfully. Later I released the eMMC and connected an microSD with a fresh installation of LibreELEC 9.0.2 with the same result so, unfortunatelly I suspect that can be a hardware problem.
Any idea? Can I do any additional test?
Thank you!

I have had similar problem in the past and the reason was a device connected to another HDMI TV input. It was a Sony PS2 console with an HDMI converter that was damaged. It seems that the damaged converter interfered with the HDMI bus and this avoids to correctly detect the CEC.
Try to connect only your Pi4 to the TV and disconnect any other device on the others HDMI inputs.

Are this installations made with OpenELEC back in the days ?
If they were made with OpenELEC it is likely that your partition is too small.
From the initial LE 7.0 onwards these partition is 512mb at LE instead of 256mb at OE.
No, first installation was made with LibreELEC 8.0 and partition size is 512MB with 370MB of free space.

Then download the image manually, and put it into the update folder.
I tried to send the file using Samba but Windows10 do not likes LIBRELEC and isn't possible to connect. High security levels for an OS that introduces new problems at each upgrade
Anyway, this is another history...Using my Mac I'm able to connect through Samba with SMB1 protocol but when I copy the file into the Update folder from the Mac it says that there were errors during the copy and the file is not complete. Indeed, file size on the LIBREELEC is 0 Kb.
I tried to acces locally copying the upgrade packet in the HDD connected to LIBREELEC but with the file browser I cannot find the \Update folder.
Next attempt will be upgrade through SSH. We will see...
-
AFAIK, there is no system partition size difference between LE v8 and v9, so upgrading should work.
Can you check if there are some leftover files/folders in the ~/.kodi/temp folder that somehow might interfere?
I checked and the temporary folder is empty.
