I'm working on a build of kodi18 trunk,

on linux64, + ffmpeg bumped to xbmc/3.2 branch, FMT 3.0.1-branch, & openssl 1.1.0e libs & headers

with my as-usual cmake config,


build makes it all the way through 'til link time, failing at



The "1st culprit", above, is


looking in ./xbmc/utils/CryptThreading.cpp


that symbol's used only in the case of



Since, I *have* openssl, and its real version is >= 0x10100000L, something's clearly amiss.

What I'm having trouble with atm is finding where these flags are being improperly set -- or, more generallly, why these symbols are being referenced in the OpenSSL api >= 1.1.0 case.

Have I missed a needed config? Or is there a bug here?

Hi, I am working on an experiment, trying to get Kodi installed in a vm, on Ubuntu server 16.04.2 LTS on an ESXi server and do a passthrough with an Nvidia card using the HDMI out This is where I am. I followed this post on installing Kodi 17 in an ...

I’m not certain if this is a PVR bug, or if it is specific to pvr.hts. Also, I only use (a lightly modified version of) Estuary, so this might be an Estuary bug, although because of the way it presents, I doubt it.

It appears that the references to the Timeshift Buffer in the PVR subsystem is not cleared when it is not immediately replaced by a new Live TV stream. If Live TV is stopped while in the middle of the buffer, the buffer reference remains until a new Live TV is started.

This is most visible/present when watching a Recorded program. If I choose to start watching a Recorded program, either while a Live TV stream in currently playing or after selecting Stop while the playback progress was within the Timeshift Buffer, the Timeshift Buffer progress bar displays above file’s playback progress bar.

To replicate this:

1. Start playback of a Live TV stream by selecting a Channel.
2. Pause playback to initiate the display of the Timeshift Buffer.
3. Optional: Press Stop to cease playback of the Live TV stream, while there still remains time left in the Timeshift Buffer.
4. Select a recorded program from the PVR Recordings to view/play.
5. While the Recording is in progress, press Pause to bring up the OSD Progress display.
6. (In Estuary; actual display may differ based upon skin) The Timeshift Buffer progress bar displays above the Recording’s playback progress bar, and continues to update its end time.

The only way to clear this is to select a new Live TV stream to playback, and stop its playback while at the end of the Timeshift Buffer (i.e., to fast-forward to the end of the stream and return to Now/Live.)

I tried to pull up existing issues to see if this had already been reported, but was unable to do so. Bugs/issues are not tracked through Github, and for some reason the Trac database kept erroring out on me every time I attempted to browse/search through it.

Hello! I LOOOVE this skin, recently upgraded to Krypton and fancied a change from my usual mimic theme. I was wondering if there's a way to change the colour scheme of the skin though? I prefer blue so I changed mimic to blue all over. Even if I need ...

Hi there, just wondering if it's possible to disable artwork in the epg entirely? I run on fire tv box, and the artwork is always laggy and takes a while to show the correct artwork. I'd like to disable this entirely. It used to have low power mode tha...

I used NextPVR to record OTA programming. I would like to move OTA recordings from NextPVR to TV Shows section under Kodi 17.1. I was able to move recordings such as The Amazing Race and Designated Survivor to the TV Shows section. When I copied th...

Hi everyone, which iptv provider provides the best english and israeli channels which work all the time and do not buffer thank you

For the past several days I have not been able to get any stream from any plugin or repository to connect in Kodi 17.1. Kodi is still able to gather other information from the internet such as movie information and updates to the plugins I just can not...

I was having problems with kodi starting and immediately stopping. Apparently I had some banned addons. My question is how can I remove said addons when I cannot keep kodi open? I did goto .kodi and try and delete all the addons that I thought might...

I had Random PVR Background set for the Live TV thumbnail as well as the background. That suddenly disappeared in the Set Thumbnail options. Was that option removed during an update or something? Thank you. Daryl

So I just updated my kodi v16 to the krypton 17.1 on google play so everything was all good until I realize when I open kodi it will show the loading page but then shut off right after. My Kodi now does not work and I have tried almost everything and ...

I have an Android TV Box, and the output resolution is in fact 4k. However, the resolution of kodi is set to 720p, and I cannot change it. Is there anyway to turn it up to 4k? Or at least 1080p?
