Kodi icons gone.

I accidentally cleared my data on Kodi. When I click on the Kodi app, I get a screen with lists and message that library is currently gone, and "enter an add-on browser". Have no idea how to restore this huge "whoops". Please help.

Why does Container work so strange???

Hello

I have MyVideoNav opened with some contents displayed.
I open a custom dialog from MyVideoNav, and it contains a wraplist inside a group inside a list.
In this wraplist I have (this is my own plugin, so only syntax matters in this case)

Code:
<content>plugin://plugin.stiff?path=$INFO[Container.FolderPath]&fetch=genres</content>

The $INFO part works, fetching FolderPath of main MyVideoNav container (ie. the currently displayed <views> item)

Why is it like thatConfused Accidentally this is what I want, but I really don't like magic like that, as it can stop working any moment. I suspect Container item has some special meaning, as opposed to Container(id) which refers to a specific container.

So far communication between windows was possible for me only with Properties, as there is no way to reference another window in info (even something like like Window(videos).Container.FolderPath doesn't work in the above example).

Xboxdrv on Kodi 17 Raspbian lite

Hello,

I'm really close to get the custom distribution of my dreams for an almost fully automated with Kodi+Plex+Sonaar+radaar+transmission+rpi-monitor+Moonlight on my raspberry pi. I made the choice to start from a raspbian lite for different reasons (control, learning...), instead of pre-made distributions like retropie or OSMC.

I made it bootable from USB Everything works great, Kodi for the local screen, Plex to serve my medias all over the house on every type of devices, and rpimonitor whit custom plugin to manage all the processes from webservices.

And now i'm getting to make little thing work, like different type of interfaces.
Now i'm trying to make my Xbox 360 controller work on Kodi 17 Krypton, in order to get Moonlight to boot from Kodi througt the Luna plugin who looks awesome.

I tried to find walkthrougt on the internet, but none of them seems the same or even applicable in Raspbian lite. A lot of them are made for Retropie, OSMC and other... And I don't think things work the same and i'm afraid to make a mistake. And after hours of research, I can't find someone who tried the same crazy stunt.

So I tried i manually, installed the xboxdrv driver from raspbian repo, and run an evtest and the controller is recognized by the pi. I made it bootable with an init.d script, I tried everything I saw in different walkthrougt, but Kodi don't seem to see there is a controller plugged to it.

And I seem to be a little stuck now i try to make the controller to work with Kodi. Nothing respond, when i try to manage the controller in settings>system>input>manage controller, when I press a button to map it, no response. I even tried to make a custom xml mapping, but no response even.

When i try to run :

Code:
sudo xboxdrv --silent --detach-kernel-driver --mimic-xpad

I get this has a response:
Code:
xboxdrv 0.8.5 - http://pingus.seul.org/~grumbel/xboxdrv/

Then, naturally as he tells me, i run rmmod xpad

Code:

So I said to myself, maybe xpad is not in raspbian lite package so I apt-getted it. Same response, xpad is not loaded. And even if I wanted to use xpad instead of xboxdrv, I can't get any hint on the internet to make it work. I don't know if it has any incidence on Kodi, but I really what to do next.

I'm relatively not used to Linux, it's one of the reasons why I rely a lot on walkthrought, forum reasearch and I learned a lot from this, how things work in Debian... and I love it.
