Delay Kodi auto start.
#1
I'm running Kodi 17.6 through kodi session on linux mint 17.3 XFCE. My question is this.. my ssd boots Kodi before tvheadend can get my hauppauge 1955 up. I will have to reboot the system numerous times until tvheadend boots before Kodi. Is ther ea way to delay Kodi on autoboot. If I exit out and log into the xfce session all changes made through session manager only apply to that session.. not the kodi session. Thanks!

I had an issue with LRC not starting before Kodi, and hence causing a problem using my RC.

I solved it like this:

Open the /usr/bin/kodi-standalone file as root, and add a line:
Code:
sleep 5

So that the beginning of the file looks like this:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

sleep 5

Save the file and reboot. You may need to experiment with the sleep value.

Awesome... worked great thanks! I ran into this years ago with usb hard drive not being mounted before XBMC started.. ended up using desktop session with kodi delayed through session manager. Would be great to add "Start Up Delay" in the kodi settings itself. Thanks again for the help!!
