Get user country or region? - smitchell6879 - 2019-05-08
So I know I can get users language with xbmc.geLanguage is there a way to get the users country and or region? Is that even something that gets set in Kodi?

you can use JSON-RPC https://kodi.wiki/view/JSON-RPC_API/v8#Settings.GetSettingValue to get the locale.timezone or locale.timezonecountry setting, but this is not guaranteed to be set in every platform/install.

Thanks I will give it a try. If it is not set then I will just have it fallback to the USA so no big deal.
