I’ve decided to upgrade from 16.1 to 17.1.
First, not an issue, i must said that i don’t like the new interface, if possible i would i have the possibility to stay with the previous, but if possible, i’ve not found out how, so i’ll deal with it.
First issue : Moderate. Having a plasma TV screen, i need ScreenSaver. I use the screensaver.xbmc.slideshow-2.0.1.zip, and have also installed the script.module.simplejson-3.3.0.zip because it seems that it’s needed by this last release. Works fine with 16.1. When i hit “preview” in 17.1 in the configuration menu, all i have is a black screen. I’ve retreived both files form the “krypton” directory of the addons link.
Second issue : Major, and it’s strange nobody reported it… Or is it introduced in 17.1 ? (Never tried the 17.0). So, having a TV screen, i set the display settings to adjust the screen to compensate the overscan of the TV, yesterady.
Today i restart the PC, start Kody and… All my settings were gone. I’ve then immediatly rolled-back to 16.1, this issue is major for me.
That’s all i have to report. I think both are probably very easely reproducible on any Windows PC.
OS : Windows 7 SP-1.
Otherwise, keep going your great job guys, Kodi is still for me the best player to use on a totaly fully stand-alone platform, with a remote control to pilot it.
