LiveTV skip channel info screen on selection

Why Does Clean Library NOT ACTUALLY DO THAT??

Very frustrating, and from searches for similar issues, this appears to happen to many other users. When you run a Clean Library, there are still paths/entries in there that are not cleaned. Why does this process fail, or is it that the support inform...

resizing buttons and wrapmultiline

So, I am using this button in DialogFullscreenInfo.xml

PHP Code:
<control type="button">
    <
height>auto</height>
    <
width min="90" max="1664">auto</width>
    <
label>$INFO[VideoPLayer.Plot]</label>
    <
textcolor>$VAR[color:Accent]</textcolor>
    <
font>Slab-22</font>
    <
aligny>center</aligny>
    <
textoffsetx>32</textoffsetx>
    <
wrapmultiline>true</wrapmultiline>
    <
onclick>noop</onclick>
</
control

It's a fake button as I am using it to have a "label" with automatically sizing background texture. At 1664 pixels it should move to a new line, any less will resize everything accordingly. The latter works, however I do not understand how the <wrapmultiline> logic works.

The code above does not result in moving to a new line at 1664 pixels (or a bit less depending on word breaks). Instead it goes to a new line after just a few words, resulting in a width of about a quarter of the set maximum width. Raising the minimum width makes it wider, but I would have to raise it to the maximum width to make full use of the space. And this also makes it take up the whole line if the text is shorter, which defies the entire thing I want to accomplish. It's almost like the maximum is treated as the minimum width.

Is what I want possible at all?

Samsung Dex support instructions

Kodi on Samsung Dex fails to support full screen mode.
The link below describes how to add support ☺️

To implement Multi-Window in Samsung DeX

SDK 24 and higher: Apps targeting SDK 24 and higher automatically support Multi-Window as a native feature by default. However, apps operating in Samsung DeX Desktop Mode must still explicitly enable Multi-Window in the Manifest to be run in a Resizable Window.
To enable Multi-Window for Samsung DeX, paste this code into the Manifest:
<application
android:resizeableActivity="true">
</application>
