Hello Devs, The video below does not play in Kodi 17.3, but plays fine in VLC! It looks like Kodi does not like an http: (httpSemi-column) inside a url and ends up removing the semi-column and fails to play the video, while VLC manages this just fin...

I am using Kodi 17.3 with Estuary skin on PC and I want to change the default view to WALL. My research has shown that a change to the <views> order in the MyVideoNav.xml file for the skin should accomplish this. The location mentioned is: /u...

Hi all, 2 days ago I updated the kodi on my mom's computer from 17.1 (that worked quite poorly) to 17.3 For some reason I had to configure everything from scratch, but did it anyway, and everything seemed to work well. Today I remotely connected to her...

Hoping some can help me.

I have kodi 17.3 installed on my Raspberry Pi3 (Raspbian) with a MythTV backend (v28).

I have configured kodi to use VLC to play ".iso" files, and indeed it does launch VLC todo it as witnessed below:
pi@rpi-3b:~/.kodi/temp $ ps -eaf|grep -i vlc
pi 1222 1132 0 12:11 ? 00:00:00 sh -c "/usr/bin/vlc" "/media/pi/Videos/STAR_TREK_XI_DOM.iso" --fullscreen --play-and-exit
pi 1223 1222 99 12:11 ? 00:11:40 /usr/bin/vlc /media/pi/Videos/STAR_TREK_XI_DOM.iso --fullscreen --play-and-exit

Yes VLC really is running, I can hear the Audio. However the Kodi GUI still occupies the fullscren.
contents of playercorefactory.xml is below:
pi@rpi-3b:~/.kodi/userdata $ cat playercorefactory.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<playercorefactory>
<players>
<player name="VLC" type="ExternalPlayer" audio="false" video="true">
<filename>/usr/bin/vlc</filename>
<args>"{1}" --fullscreen --play-and-exit</args>
<hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc>
<hideconsole>false</hideconsole>
<playonestackitem>true</playonestackitem>
</player>
</players>

<rules action="prepend">
<!-- DVDs -->
<!-- Use VLC for .iso images -->
<rule name="dvdimage" dvdimage="true" player="VLC" />
<rule filetypes="dvdimage" />
<rule filename="*.iso" player="VLC" />
</rules>
</playercorefactory>

I have tried with both hidexbmc and hideconsole set to TRUE and FALSE and the results are always the same.

Suggestions anyone ?

I've installed 17.3 many times and it still will not work on my Amazon Firestick. It's on the stick but when I click on it to bring it up it goes to the initial Kodi 17.3 loading screen then right back out to Amazon's home screen. I've cleared cache,...
