In France all DVB-T channels ("hertzien TNT channels") are interlaced and I have no issue playing them with Kodi ATV/TVheadend.
Maybe Kambala or Fuzzard have an idea concerning your issue Undecided

Just to be sure, you‘re using Kodi 19, not Memphiz‘ Kodi 17 build?
As there the issue got fixed with a later PR, one of the last I think made to that build.

As for 2, we use a different keymap to what memphiz had. The custom controller.siri.xml file needs to be changed to whatever you want. As for how to change that easily, I don't have anything offhand.

No idea about the 3rd one sorry. I don't have/use enigma, so can't really test it to try and debug. Maybe a debug log would be helpful.

The new different keymap layout is not really comfortable, I have tested it with the original Apple TV remote as well as with the Logitech Harmony control, isn't it possible to provide the keyboard layout of Memphiz as in the first debs alternatively?

That would be great! 

Am I the only one with my opinion or are there other voices besides me about the new keymap layout?

Does anyone have a keymap for a Logitech Harmony that they have already tested on the AppleTV 4k with release 19.0? Would be very nice


RE: TvOS Kodi Build - sy6sy2 - 2020-01-22

Yes I am using master branch. 

@guibaa, You can easily replace the current keymap by the old one from Memphiz fork if you prefer the old one ;-)

The old Keymap file is here https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Memphiz/xbmc/yab/system/keymaps/customcontroller.SiriRemote.xml 
Then you can copy paste this file in the userdata/keymaps folder (you can use the build in "File manager" of Kodi to copy paste this file in the correct folder).
We are here is needed ;-)

@ sy6sy2

Thanks for the "where" the "how" was familiar to me.

I have now installed two test scenarios on the Apple TV 4K.

Senario 1 with Kodi 17.6 last deb from memphiz
Senario 2 with Kodi 19.0 last deb - kodi-20200120-a66cb5e7-master-tvos.deb

In both senaria I copied the customcontroller.SiriRemote.xml file from memphiz (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Memphiz/xbmc/yab/system/keymaps/customcontroller.SiriRemote.xml) into the keymaps directory.

Menu TV Shows
In Senario 1 the xml file works as expected and opens the context menu in all levels with a long keystroke.

In Senario 2 I have the following result with a long keystroke.
- When I switch to TV Shows I see the covers (in Progress TV Shows and the recently added episodes. Here I get the context menu displayed correctly.
- When I go to the next level, for example by clicking on the cover, I see the individual seasons. Here the long keystroke no longer opens the context menu but the information menu.  The same happens when I go to the next level in the episodes.

I assume that this is a code change and has nothing to do with the xml-file in the keymaps directory.

This change has only occurred since the deb-file "kodi-20200117-01149380-master-tvos.deb" and the files before that are working fine.

I don't know which changes caused this behaviour between the file "Kodi-20200115-f4f9d88a-master-tvos.deb" and "kodi-20200117-01149380-master-tvos.deb" but it continued in the following deb-files.

The question I ask myself is this so desired or is it a small bug?

I hope that there is more clarity.

Thanks for your great job, which allows us to use Kodi on the best platform

I would still think it's a keymap issue.

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/pull/17198

Most likely cause. There hasn't been many prs that affect tvos since the initial platform commit (2 actually).

Nevermind, the above, what your saying is the issue occurs in the very first actual mainline build.

No idea, someone going to have to dive in and look. I would still say it's keymap issue though, we don't specifically handle controls, it's all done via keymaps for actual actions done


RE: TvOS Kodi Build - guibaa - 2020-01-23

OIk then I will wait and test the other "nightlies" which will be released soon.

We are still in an early stage of the release. I hope for changes because the handling is so not very user friendly.

Maybe there are other users or testers who are interested in this functionality and can confirm my presentation?


RE: TvOS Kodi Build - kambala - 2020-01-23

one more testing scenario is using 19-alpha on desktop platform and checking if it works the same there

doesn't long press work for you?


Ah sorry I misunderstood what was written here (I didn’t test the build yet). I thought long press on the Apple TV remote now triggers info view instead of context menu.


RE: TvOS Kodi Build - mats_o - 2020-01-26

Is there an easy way to install kodi 17.6 and 19 nightly on the same atv4k?

I got a jailbroken (ios 11.1) atv4k and would like to be able to test 19 without losing my very well working 17.6

I did not test this but I think that you can (re)sign the app with iOS App Signer (https://dantheman827.github.io/ios-app-signer/) and use two different App ID then you can install two or more Kodi on the same Apple TV. tvOS will think that those app are different.

My Apple TV is not jailbroken but I have two Kodi app with two different app ID ;-)


RE: TvOS Kodi Build - kambala - 2020-01-26

yes, different Application IDs (bundle identifiers) is the key to this

You can even have multiple instances of the same Kodi build with this method (e.g. if you have a second user and don’t feel happy with the Kodi internal profile management).
