NextPVR add-on won't load after Mac restart

[Jack_Burton505]

Hello, I don't know if this has been addressed before, I didn't see anything in a quick search of this forum.

I have the latest NextPVR running on a RPi 5 using Raspberry Pi OS, and I have a Mac mini running macOS Sequoia 15.7.1 (I'm not quite ready to go to 26 but I will soon).  I've installed Kodi (21.2 Omega according to the file I downloaded) and the NextPVR client add-on (21.3.2) on the Mac.  When I open Kodi after setting this up everything works fine.  If I reboot the RPi, Kodi on the Mac continues to work just fine.  But if I reboot the Mac, when I open Kodi and go to 'TV,' I'll see a screen where it shows a message saying something like "PVR manager starting up" with a little spinning circle, and it just spins and spins and spins.  In order to get the NextPVR client add-on to work again I have to reinstall Kodi from the downloaded file over the existing Kodi.  Then the NextPVR client is right there when I open Kodi, without me having to re-add the add-on.

Is this a known problem with a solution or workaround?  I don't know if I have the same problem after the Mac goes to sleep; I haven't worked that out yet.

Thank you

No it is not a known problem. Does your RPi have a static IP?

Hello, yes it had a static IP, I should have mentioned that.

OK turn on debug logging in Kodi https://kodi.wiki/view/Log_file I find using advancedsettingsl.xml is easiest and zip and send the kodi and kodi.olg logs (after the reboot plsu reinstall) or sent the link that the Kodi log uploader gives you.

Okay, let me know if these have what you need, and thank you.

[Jack_Burton505]

Ah, let me go back and try to do what you asked for the advanced settings xml.

[mvallevand]

Thanks Could you try the reboot but this time let it fail without a reinstall but don't exit and wait 5 minutes or so and then send the kodi.log

Will do

Okay, check these and see if they are what you want.

I'll be back soon; time to walk the dog.
