Hi community.
First of all thank you for amazing Kodi app being with us since long time ago. Thanks as well for people who created and maintain the backup add-on too.
I am however, facing some weird behavior when trying to restore the "profile" using this add-on. It just doesn't work and I don't know why...
I have two raspberry pi 5 and want to have same default settings equal on both ones. So I installed libreelec, configure it properly and created a backup using this add-on.
When restoring backup in the second raspberry pi (same libreelec version), it restores everything (add-ons, language settings,...) except Profile.
Indeed, when ssh to the second pi it appears the by default "Master user" one instead of the 2 profiles I have in the backup version.
If I try to overwrite the profile.xml file, once reboot it restores the "master user" one everytime.
Do anyone knows why this is happening and how can be fixed?
Thank you,

Kodi 21 on Android 12 Google TV.
Finally got this installed... there are a LOT of dependencies if installing manually via zip files on a device with no internet access. However, it doesn't seem to backup any custom files from Kodi's Android data files folder. For example, custom splash screen files go there and I've read that other things like custom fonts do also. In other words, be aware the addon currently can not offer complete backup/restore functionality. I don't know if anyone is still developing this addon but it would obviously be extremely beneficial if it could be updated to do a complete backup of everything required to restore an exact copy of the user's fully customized Kodi. Thanks in advance if anyone ever acts upon this feature request and, if so, please notify me. Also, if anyone knows of an alternate solution that will accomplish the same thing, please let me know. TIA
