Deleting Whole Series Directory Crashes Kodi - dawsonjw - 2019-03-10

Hi,
      has anyone else noticed that if you delete a whole series directory of recordings from within Kodi that Kodi crashes.  Deleting individual recordings works fine, just if you delete the whole directory.  Can someone else please try this?

cheers

John

I do this all the time but it could be improved 3.3.13

@emveepee

I just experienced this also on Kodi v18 and NextPVR addon 3.3.13

Ten episodes of a show that I had recorded but decided not to watch. I tried to delete it but Kodi crashed.

Debug Log here and errors around line 30,568... https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/n8CwRX4VSw/
xml:
18:00:41.600 T:7624   DEBUG: AddOnLog: NextPVR PVR Client: DoRequest return /service?method=recording.delete&recording_id=6090 200 66 1

18:00:41.600 T:7624   DEBUG: AddOnLog: NextPVR PVR Client: DeleteRecording failed. Returning PVR_ERROR_NO_ERROR

But I don't see the cause for the crash.

The folder and episodes have been deleted from the HDD, and restarting Kodi the show is no longer in Recordings.

 Ok thanks I have a look.  First think I noticed is a cosmetic issue the debug error message is wrong it is being output on success and Kodi is not treating it as an error.  More likely it relates to this line

8:00:42.263 T:5424 ERROR: CGUIMediaWindow::GetDirectory(pvr://recordings/tv/active/) failed

Ok I can duplicate this but the crash seems to be coming from Kodi, more research is required.

Edit:  If I get an answer here https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=341976&pid=2833566#pid2833566 then I will make the required change.
