Channel Names for EPG

I don't know if it belongs in KODI or in Simple Client forum, but I wish changing the TV channel names in the PVR section's channel manager would actually do something beside just changing the display name. My problem is, that if I have an m3u file fo...

tvOS build mirror is empty?

All of the tvOS Kodi deb builds are missing and there's no mirrors containing any files for the Apple TV 4. Please advise when they'll be available in the mirrors again. Thank you

Subtitles addon error

Hopefully someone around here can help me, as I suddently have problems downloading subtitles.
Just to be clear, it worked perfectly yesterday - but I did a fresh install and restored my backup on my fresh install. (Long story short, my partition was too small for LibreELEC so I had to do a new and fresh install to update to the latest version)

I downloaded the latest version of LibreELEC, and did a backup of my old install. Then I restored my backup to the fresh install, and everything works as it should - but not downloading subtitles from Subscene and OpenSubtitles. This is the error I get from the addons;

Code:

I've tried to delete the addons, delete the addon data in the userdata directory and installed them again. However, no luck at all. As I said, this worked perfectly before I reinstalled LibreELEC. Anyone have any ideas what causing this?

I appreciate any help I can get to solve this.. Maybe I just have to do a clean install and don't restore any old backups? I hate to loose my watched status, settings etc :-)

Thank you!

Krypton RC3 problems

Hello, My first impression of RC3 was beyond expectation: time shifting has improved enormously! Some remarks about the new time shift status bar: - it is not clear to me when this bar is displayed, and how to display it when it is not. - I suppose ...
