I have uploaded a new version to the knewc NextPVR repo on github, I decided to skip the beta stage let's see if that is a good idea or not.
Global changes
- Increased session security handling in case of server reboots. Will be needed with future versions of NextPVR
UI Client
- Logic change to (hopefully) solve issues with users that use the Back key to stop video.

Cool beans, I'll give it a try tonight. Thanks Martin!
I guess I didn't tag it. Don't you install using the repo and get automatic updates?
Edit: tagged now.
Martin
I do have automatic updates turned on, but even when I went to Settings-Add Ons and did a manual update it didn't update. I went to github to see if I had something setup wrong.
After you tagged it I could see the update in Settings-Add Ons - NextPVR New Client - Update, but when I selected 2.9.1 I got "Update Failed" message.

I was able to download the 2.9.1 zip file and do an install from zip. I did notice the path on github did not have /master in it, is that my issue?
I guess I put it in the wrong folder on GitHub and should really document how I do this. Thanks based on that I see what I need to do.
Hopefully it is working now.
Martin
I hear that. It seems I have to document everything things days, too easy to forget. :-(
I'll try an update on one of my other Kodi clients. I just received my ODroid N2+ and if I can figure out why I can't see the microSDXC card I bought on my computer I'll get that setup and test that too!
Thanks,

FYI,
I checked my Kodi clients. My RPi4/LibreELEC was running v2.9.0. It had not updated automatically yet (automatic is enabled), but when I manually did Update it found 2.9.1 and installed w/o issue.
My ODroid CoreELEC are still running v2.7.4 - as you can guess I haven't been keeping tabs on these at all mainly because they work pretty well. These are also set to update automatically. When I do a manual update it doesn't find anything newer than 2.7.4. Here's a chunk of the log if it is of any value.

Those paths look completely different than those in my previous post. I suspect I'll need to update manually from the zip file.
Yep that freehost booted me a couple of years ago for having more than 100 different daily users (which still surprised me) which is why I moved to github. Yes you need to manually install the new repo and remove that one.
Martin
Weird, if my memory isn't failing me I bought my first ODroid on Black Friday last year. Regardless, it's no trouble to install from zip, I'll get that done.
On a related note, my wife said she "accidentally" used BACK to stop a recording in knewc on the local kodi on the server (the one I updated yesterday) and it worked to stop playback. Thanks for that. I will continue to try to train her to use the STOP button though.
