My PMS is not recognising the Kodi client Add-on and giving many errors. 200+ in less than 20 minutes
ERROR - Unable to find client profile for device; platform=Linux, platformVersion=4.4.19+rt25, device=Linux-4.4.19+rt25-armv7l-with-glibc2.4, model=Unknown
Running latest
PMS 1.9.4 Server on Synology DSM,
Kodi Add-on (LibreELEC) 0.1.2 on Cubox-i 4 on LibreELEC 8.1.2.
After restart and with debugging on.
The device is recognised Oct 14, 2017 23:16:18.843 [0x7f16d466b700] DEBUG - [Now] Device is Linux (Kodi Add-on (LibreELEC)).

but There is no client under /Resource/Profile, should I copy one and rename it to Kodi Add-on? Kodi Add-on (LibreELEC)? As the debug log seems to recognise the device but then next item is error because there is no profile of that name?

I hadn’t notied this but after checking my logs just now, you’re right. It doesn’t seem to affect playback so everything still works. It’s just very untidy by Plex and really needs to be addressed. Plex for Kodi is a supported client, yes?
Also, PlexKodiConnect seems to have same issue but someone fixed it here:

I’ve looked at the PlexKodiConnect item and they just copy the Generic profile, which is reference to Web, and rename it to PlexKodiConnect.xml but the question is what to name the Profile for Kodi Add-on?
Kodi Add-on?
Kodi Add-on (LibreELEC)? [Is LibreELEC just additional info?]
Is this even the correct naming convention? I didn’t get to the testing of multiple names and sought input from the forum whilst asleep and at work.

Use the same name as the Device section of the error.
Sorry, just seeking a little more clarity, so name the file “Linux-4.4.19+rt25-armv7l-with-glibc2.4.xml” ?
And also edit line inside the Generic one to be

Yes, it works for me.
But this is just a workaround. The root cause needs to be fixed by Plex. So let me file this in the Plex Media Server bug tracker. Oh wait…
Don’t forget to put it back after an update.
Just updated to 1.9.5 and it wiped the profile from the folder
/…/Plex Media Server/Resources/Profiles
For others reading this thread:
Finding the actual folder name to put this in isn’t as easy as reading the the dlna thread, the vague text
User profile files are located in the Plex Media Server user directory, in a directory called Profiles. If you have never authored a user profile before, this directory will not exist.
I’m trying this folder first /volume1/Plex/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Profiles and have put the xml file here after creating the Profiles folder.
Further more from the DLNA thread comments I would reiterate @chadcross and @aR3SA4Ry comments on documentation or the lack thereof and needing to search.
