Does Emby (or Plex) work good w/ PseudoTV Live?

Is Emby supported? I will admit when switching between my content in Kodi, it takes 3-5 seconds before the show/movie will actually start. But when inside PTVL, and I'm trying to change channels, it'll take 5-10 seconds to change the channel - annoyi...

DTS-MA Dolby-HD decoding FireTV?

Hi, this might be a dumb question. I have kodi / SPMC on a firetv 1 connected to a Anthem D2v. Audio set to passthrough, raw. I got a couple of test-files for DTS, DTS-MA, Dolby True-HD. They play fine on all 7.1 speakers, yet there are a little LED...

Database documentation

Documentation of the database format is very sparse and outdated. For example: Databases (wiki) I reverse engineered the database format of Kodi 16 but I just upgraded to kodi 17 and all my scripts are broken now. For example, in Kodi 16 there is a f...

Season fanart/landscape problem

Hi everyone, I'm having a problem calling the season landscape/fanart images.nothing appears
I've tried this code

PHP Code:
<variable name="FanartImage">
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(landscape))">$INFO[ListItem.Art(landscape)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(fanart)) + !Container.Content(episodes) + !Container.Content(seasons)">$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Thumb)">$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</value>
        <
value>$INFO[ListItem.Icon]</value>
    </
variable

and this code
PHP Code:
<variable name="FanartImage">
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(season.fanart))">$INFO[ListItem.Art(season.fanart)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(fanart)) + !Container.Content(episodes) + !Container.Content(seasons)">$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Thumb)">$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</value>
        <
value>$INFO[ListItem.Icon]</value>
    </
variable

The files are named seasonx-landscape.jpg
Renamed one of them seasonx-fanart.jpg, it doesn't work either.

I used a similar approach on the posters and banners and worked like a charm with them
PHP Code:
<variable name="BannerImage">
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItemr.Art(season.banner))">$INFO[ListItemr.Art(season.banner)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(tvshow.banner)) + !Container.Content(seasons)">$INFO[ListItem.Art(tvshow.banner)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(banner))">$INFO[ListItem.Art(banner)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Art(fanart))">$INFO[ListItem.Art(fanart)]</value>
        <
value condition="!IsEmpty(ListItem.Thumb)">$INFO[ListItem.Thumb]</value>
        <
value>$INFO[ListItem.Icon]</value>
    </
variable

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the help in advance
Best Regards
