PlexKodiConnect: Kodi Plex Integration Done Right

Versions? Isn’t that what you want?

Yes, but I want it for Movies and TV Shows and I don’t believe it’s available for TV Shows.

I see. Works great for movies.

Is anyone else having issues with the settings showing the wrong options? Like my transcoding setting says netmask.

Yep! I cannot seem to get the setting to play without transcoding now that the options are all bizarre.

Hopefully I’ll find time to fix the settings very soon!

  • Fix Up Next: Show PKC credits for last episode by @Serph91P in #2207

New PKC User here (trying at least. . .) Is this the right place to ask for help with PKC?

Thanks!

Well, here goes:

I followed the Wiki on Github, and after configuring everything I get the indication in the upper right corner that library syncing is taking place. Yet when finished and I try to run one of the movies, I get the reply: “Playback failed - One or more items filed to play. . .” For TV episodes, I get: “Remove episode from library. . .?” For Music, I see the list of songs in the album, but trying to play one, the list is sequentially accessed rapidly (can see each title in the upper right corner changing rapidly one after another) but nothing plays.

I see all the movies/TV shows, music files in the Kodi library, but I cant play any of them.

Don’t know if it’s related, but after accessing “Settings” in the add-on, I get the counter-rotating blue circles that continue endlessly until I hit Esc several times.

It is the latest PKC for the Kodi Omega 21.3 (Stable). I’ve tried it on both x86 Windows and RPi 3B+. I’ve uninstalled/reinstalled Kodi & PKC multiple times on the x86, and have rewritten the SD card for the Pi several times and reinstalled PKC, etc. Each time on each platform with the same results. I must be missing something or doing something wrong, but I just cant see what it is. Any help?

TIA

In the PKC settings, choose Add-on Paths instead of Direct Paths. See Direct Paths Explained · croneter/PlexKodiConnect Wiki · GitHub for setting Direct Paths and requirements you must meet. After changing path settings, you must resync: Under Advanced, reset the Kodi databases with the red Partial or full reset of Database and PKC

Thanks so much for the reply!

I thought I understood that Direct Paths were required to use the Music Library (actually, a primary need).

Nevertheless, will go for the Add-on paths as long as I can still have the ability to access and use the Music library. Thanks for the detailed step-by-step. . .

Thanks again

No. BUT: Kodi won’t exit nicely now if you’re using Add-on Paths with enabled music libraries

Okay, will go for it. Not sure what exactly “won’t exit nicely” means, but if I use a Pi with Openelec it should never have to exit(?)

Thanks again so much!

Tried a brand new installation with a new, empty thumb drive. Everything went as usual up to the point of actually installing the PKC Add On (Step 6 of PlexKodiConnect/wiki/Install-PKC-from-PKC-Repo). Now I get:

“script.module.requests - Not available”, then a note that the dependency could not be satisfied.

I’ve retried 4 times, just can’t get past that. . .

1 - What have I done wrong (differently)?

and/or

2 - How do I get “script.module.requests”?

Sorry for being such a pain, but my hair is getting thinner as I keep pulling more out.

Thanks!
