Since doing a clean install of Krypton 17.1 on a FireTV 4K, I get no results if I try to look for a Weather add-on (nothing comes up as a result). When I first did an “upgrade” my old Isengard OpenWeatherMap still worked, but I had a lot of images and database issues I wanted to clear/clean-up and adbLink can’t move an entire directory to add-ons that I can see, just single files so I see no way to move the old add-on and no obvious way to add a new one (since it comes up blank on “get more”).
The same is true with skins as well. I read you can install Confluence if you prefer it (I do), but when I click “get more” for skins, it just exits back to the preference screen. I really despise the new GUI (especially for Pictures mode where there are no list modes, for example) and trying to get to “files” under Music is a PITA (have to scroll to the right for a LONG TIME) whereas under Confluence, you just clicked down and over a couple of spots. I really like the IEC packing (no more noise to the TV speakers if they’re not muted on 5.1), but the new interface is ruining my enjoyment of Kodi.
I’ve noticed other things like “prefer default streams” for audio under the old Video preference pane are just plain GONE in V17.1 (at least with the default skin). That means on a clean install it kept picking the first (yeah default) stream instead of the 5.1 and/or DTS streams available to it. I ended up having to PUSH my old GUI settings file to the new install. That gave it the old setting (prefer default turned OFF) internally, it seems as it immediately started picking the best 5.1/DTS/whatever over stereo defaults, but there’s no way I can see to adjust the setting with the new GUI. It’s just GONE. I hate decreased functionality. Without that old file uploaded, I would have had to change the soundtrack audio every single time I started a movie (i.e. standard practice with M4A files created to work with AppleTV is to put stereo first and then 5.1).
