Channel appeared today in the guide listings. Thanks!

I haven't been idle in my pursuit of a proper replacement for the "Use Original Air Date for Recordings" setting. The PR I intend to issue depends on Kodi accepting and merging my existing one to add Original Air Date to recordings, but I thought you'd like to see how I'm proposing to deal with the ...

Hi again! I'm trying to marry the backend episode information with the RECORD engine data to filter out episodes flagged as "RecordIfNotRecorded". I was hoping to use the RecordSuccess element of the recording data to determine if the DVR will record it again or not, but I'm finding that around 15% ...

Hi Swindmiller! 1) If I am watching a show, should I be able to just hit record on my remote to start recording the show currently being watched, like in WMC. Maybe I have the wrong key mapped..... Yes. It may be a remote mapping thing, you can try using the mouse to press the big ol' red circle but...

In other news ... my current intention is to retire support for the original Kodi 17 "Krypton" baseline on it's upcoming third anniversary (February 10, 2020). There appears to be less than 20 users still on Krypton, which is well under 0.5% of the assumed installed base. I don't have any "phone hom...

OK gang, I spent some time over with Kodi working to get some changes to how "Original Air Date" will work for Matrix, and they seem to be moving into the "merge" phase. Since my proposed changes will break every single Kodi PVR addon I think I'm on the hook to do what I can to update them, but here...

I see the same thing here, any program prior to 1970 has no OriginalAirDate value at all. I don't recall ever seeing a negative one in the past, but I also treat time_t as an unsigned value, which I will clearly need to change regardless

That's an HDHomeRun thing, not sure if they have an auto-delete if full feature or not, thankfully I've never come close to filling mine up yet :) I would never add something like that anyway, too dangerous for my tastes. I can only imagine what could happen if I had some little logic error (like th...

Would it be possible to get an accurate "OriginalAirDate" in the DVR engine's recorded_files.json for dates prior to 1/1/1970? I would be fine with a string-based "YYYY-MM-DD" or even just a "YYYY" value somewhere in the JSON. The current time_t-based "OriginalAirDate" works fine for current/modern ...

I appreciate the detailed and insightful reply. That is a shame about UWP support waning. Regardless, your addon is fantastic. Thank you for your contribution! You're quite welcome, thank you for using it! I never tried this (don't have an XBox), but is it possible to enable certificate installatio...

Is there a plan to make it into the official Kodi UWP Xbox One release? I would love to see this add-on make it to Kodi on the XB1 in my living room, but I don't want to have to put the console in Developer mode to do it. Kodi UWP currently can't support installation of binary addons that didn't sh...

It would absolutely be optional, if it even works right to begin with. I do my best to ensure that the "out of the box" experience is as close to ideal as I can make it ; Honestly adding this option back would be a big hack job overall, which is why I'm pursuing the Kodi PR course instead.

Would you guys be OK with a new version of "Use Original Air Date timestamp for Recorded TV programs" that may cause a (very likely unnoticeable) delay when starting a recorded stream and would always report the time component as 12:00 AM? I think I would limit this to just Leia since Krypton is all...

There is a still a way to pull it off, I can make a trip into the PVR database to get the information again, but it's a little more wonky than I would like. I would also have to figure out a better way to deal with the fact that the original air date is a date, not a date/time. You probably noticed ...
