    Recently Kodi told me that 15.1 is available. Is it possible to update the Kodi that is installed on max2play?
    What is the best procedure for that?

    Hi waterdrinkingman,
    You can update your version of Kodi in the Webinterface-tab „Kodi“ under the section „Kodi / XBMC start installation – Replaces current Version…“. Just paste the URL for the Kodi installation you desire (must be the .deb package link) and click on „Kodi/XBMC start installation“

    where could i find a .deb URL which will be compliant with this rapsbian/squeezeplug/max2play distrib ?

    22. September 2015 at 16:53 #15772

    The update capability is currently only working on the Max2Play Odroid Images. Sorry for the misunderstanding. When we have implemented Kodi 15.1 for Raspberry Pi, we will announce it.

    @Heiner: I hope you can step up your efforts of updating the Kodi version in the RP Max2Play image. Kodi 15.2 has been stable for most platforms for some time, and 16.0 is coming quickly (alpha 4 is already out). Major Kodi addons start having problems with the Max2Play version (14.x). One of the key reasons why I paid for Max2Play was the possibility of easily switching between Kodi and Squeezplug – seems I’m about to loose this feature soon …

    Hi malohm,
    We now have the capacity to update to Kodi 15. When your version of Max2Play is up to date (version 2.24) you can see in the Kodi-menu under the option start installation an URL for update (http://steinerdatenbank.de/software/kodi-15.tar.gz). Just click the „start installation“-button and your version of Kodi will be updated.

    Thanks Heiner – this worked!

    Hi,

    im an user of kodi on pi2. Til yesterday im am using kodi 16 beta openelec builds. These builds made it possible to play 3d mvc files and isos by my omv mediaserver.

    Today i have bougt the full licence of max2play because i want the pi2 as logitechmediaserver and player for music with media files by an extern 2,5 inch hdd instead of playing the music starting the big omv server with several 4 TB Hdd.

    But an problem occurs with the kodi version you have integrated in max2play. After updating to latest max2play beta version kodi shows 15.1 as his own version. And here it is impossible to see an option for activating 3d mvc. Please update your kodi version to 15.2 or even better for the customers who like kodi beta versions to 16 alpha.

    Kind Regards

    Gerald Paul

    Seems like you ran out of free memory on your sd-card. Make sure to expand the filesystem (on settings page) before running any installations. You see the free space on the bottom of the settings page.

    Hi Amsnl,
    It seems you forgot to expand your filesystem. Please burn a fresh image and expand your filesystem under „Settings/Reboot“ to be able to use the full 8GB of your memory card and properly install Kodi.

    Hi There,
    Kodi isn’t starting anymore after the 15.1 update with the Pi B with wolfson soundcard, LMS and Squeezelite running.
    I try to start Kodi from the website but the service is not starting:

    Kodi / XBMC – Status, Start & Stop
    Versucht zu starten … Erfolgreich mit ID 4795
    Status: Kodi / XBMC läuft nicht

    I have tried the same update with the Pi B+ without Wolfson and LMS (Only Squeezelite running) and Kodi isn’t starting either.
    It is the 2.25 version of max2play wihtout any changes.(apart from expanding the SD-card and wifi settings).

    Has anyone the same problem? Or knows how to fix it?

    9. Dezember 2015 at 13:48 #17194

    update: When I tick the „Aktualisieren der HDMI-Ausgabe“, it still doesn’t work but then comes the login page for the Desktop.
    I tried to login with „Kodi“ (login:pi pass:raspberry) but it failed. Then I tried to login with „Defaut Xsession“ and that works.
    I can see Kodi under Menu/sound&video but it won’t start.
    (My Monitor is connected via HDMI/DVI adaptor and I can’t test with a pure HDMI connection but never had issues)

    9. Dezember 2015 at 13:57 #17195

    I found a kodi crashlog in the /home/pi folder. there is quite a lot of text, can I attach it here somehow?

    Hi kremat,

    it is not possible to attach files to posts, sorry. Just paste your crashlog into this topic. What is logged in „DEBUG info“ in the Max2Play Kodi interface (end of menu)?

    Basically, running Squeezelite and Kodi at the same time does not work regardless of which Kodi version is installed. On my test system (with HiFiBerry DAC+, M2P 2.25), I cannot start Squeezelite successfully as long as Kodi (15.1) is running as expected. The other way round, Max2Play automatically stopps Squeezelite when starting Kodi. It works perfectly fine.

    Hi,
    I know that both at the same time are not working and it is working like a charm with Wheezy (14.2)… squeezeplug is stopping, xmbc starts perfectly and after I stop it, squeezeplug starts playing music again.
    But Kodi/XBMC is not staring after the update to 15.1…
    apparently I’m the only one with this problem….I will leave it on 14.2 though.

    26. Dezember 2015 at 3:48 #17483

    Hello

    thx for M2P i give a new try this week and it’s perfect for my needs.

    Like kremat, i can’t use kodi 15.1, i stay with 14.2.

    I dig later for install IPTV in this version.

    19. Januar 2016 at 12:23 #17997

    How do I update kodi to 15.2 on rpi with max2play?

    23. Januar 2016 at 22:10 #18107

    Hi,

    it seems that the current M2P version 2.27 has problems to install KODI 15.1 also on a fresh and expanded OS on a RPI1.
    The only chance I had to solve it was to install/update it manually by removing/solving a dependency problem with
    „apt-get update“
    „apt-get install kodi“
    „apt-get -f install“
    „apt-get autoremove“
    After this KODI (15.2) started successfully.

    Maybe this information can be used to fix the current setup.

    Cheers,
    Sandman60

    @sandman60:

    Thanks very much! This work for me.

    20. April 2016 at 10:22 #19852

    Olé!
    That works like a charm!
    Thanks a million mister sandman!

    23. April 2016 at 17:20 #19920

    You are welcome. THX for the feedback. Hopefully this workaround will take place in one of the next updates.

    Hi guys,
    Our current Jessie Image has Kodi 2:15.2-2~jessie.
    The installation protocol should work as well, depending on the source package you use for installation.

    edit: We also took out the preset download link that would not be working with the Jessie-Image to prevent further confusion.

    beim Versuch auf Kodi 15.1/2 zu upgraden hatte ich leider keinen Erfolg.
    War ich zu voreilig? Ich hatte im Forum als Download Link die Steinerdatenbank reinkopiert,
    existiert aber nicht?

    Welche andere URL könnte ich für die aktuellste Kodiversion nehmen?

    Danke für die Hilfe,

    Volker

    12. Mai 2016 at 12:25 #20097

    Hallo Volker,
    Die aktuellen Images haben die aktuelle Version von Kodi 15.2-2 vorinstalliert. Momentan gibt es noch keine Möglichkeit eine neuere Version zu installieren, weshalb das Feld für diese URL aktuell leer steht. Sobald es eine neuere kompatible Version gibt, werden wir diese umgehend dort einbringen.

    12. Mai 2016 at 12:35 #20098

    Will the next version (16.1) also be available for wheezy-images?

    12. Mai 2016 at 14:00 #20105

    Kodi 16.1 jessie binaries are here: http://pipplware.pplware.pt/pipplware/dists/jessie/armv7/binary/
    (didn’t have time to try on Max2Play yet … anybody else?)

    15. Mai 2016 at 10:14 #20146

    Hallo,
    ich habe bei der Version 2.31 für meinen Pi2 ein Update von Kodi auf 15 versucht. Leider hat dies nicht geklappte, ich finde aber auch keine URL im WWW für eine neue Intall-Datei.
    Wie bekomme ich das System wieder zum laufen?
    Der Link von der Steinerdatenbank funktioniert (s.oben) funktioniert leider nicht..

    Dank euch..

    25. Mai 2016 at 16:18 #20279

    Hallo Thomy,
    Der Link wurde aus aktuellen Versionen von Max2Play entfernt. Wir empfehlen die installierte Version zu nutzen und werden euch natürlich darüber informieren wenn eine neue Version in einem Update enthalten ist.

    20. September 2016 at 2:07 #23107

    Hallo Heiner,
    es wäre wirklich schön, wenn Ihr Kodi V16.X nun auch in den packages für den Raspberry Pi implementieren würdet und nicht nur für die Odroid Platform (xu4) bereithaltet.

    Liebe Grüße,
    Klaas

    11. Oktober 2016 at 21:54 #23377

    Hallo Heiner,

    hat sichbezüglich dieses Themas etwas getan?
    Kodi 16 wär schon schön…. 🙂

    Beste Grüße
