Remember movie position, enhanced edition!

Hello,

I'm living in a 3rd world country, a developing nation where powerouts are frequent during the day. I noticed i can watch 1½ hours of a movie, then experience a powerout and when i boot back into Kodi, it has no clue i even started watching that movie.

Can you set a marker at 15/30 sec. intervals during playback, so it'll at least have a faint idea of where i was in playback? Even once a minute is fine, just so i dont have to sit and skip forward and spend 15 mins. finding where i was.

Thanks for listening.

Audio delay issues with Amber

Sorry, I'm probably just an idiot and there is an easy fix for this but I can't figure it out. I had been using SPMC/Kodi v16 with the Amber skin and love it. This past week I upgraded to Kodi v17.3 and the new Amber skin. Seems fine to me but when I...
