You have to export your library and reimport into frodo :p

Will give it a shot, but even without doing this, it doesn't show the library buttons in the menu ect. Was quite upset that I couldnt make use of my "recently added" menu.

If there's no library, it doesn't give you the option...

Once you reimport the library it works fine.

It 'should' still be there. If you navigate to your movies or series folder and then scroll all the way to the top and enter it should take you to the screen you are looking for with the 'recently added' links.

Alright backed up my xbmc home folder, as well as exported library, then did an upgrade.

Testing so far shows that library is not there. Gone into videos, gone to top folder, all I get is:
- Files
- Playlists
- Video Addons

Quite bummed. I am used to XBMC just working most of the time, don't like a broken XBMC, although this new one's default skin is nice.

But I am busy importing the library I exported, sadly its taking MUCH longer to import than to export, currently at 2%.

ps. Mine is installed from adding this repo:
http://ppa.launchpad.net/wsnipex/xbmc-xvba/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xbmc/

Yes it takes a while to import. Once it's imported you'll see your menu options.

Oh you'll also need to add your sources again (ie add directories and define scrapers)

Ah I hope so. Not too concerned with the scrapers, I've let Sickbeard add the TVDB info for me, so that is automated at least. Maybe need them for movies. Lets first get my menu options fixed.

Edit:
Ok so looks like everything is 100% back to normal. Time to eat ect, so once I have time in the next week or so I will start testing the addon and have a look. Can't believe it was so silly to get the library working.

I think you need to configure the content type in the directory anyway so that library updates pick things up properly.
Remember sb provides metadata, but Xbmc still needs to load that data into the library.

True, except I have configured sickbeard to connect to XBMC and update the library for me, instead of letting XBMC pick it up from the folders. I know, its a different way of doing it, but that is how I kinda like it, instead of having XBMC scan my folders periodically.

All SB does it trigger an update though afaik. XBMC still needs to know where to look, unless I'm mistaken? Anyway, I guess we'll find out soon ;)

Sickbeard can download all artwork and episode info for you and store it locally, then XBMC doesn't have to use too many external sources and the scans will go a lot quicker if you have local data stored.

For sure... but doesn't it still need to know WHAT is in that directory? ie movies, music, series etc? I could of course be talking absolute ***... but before I did that, I didn't get any new content indexed into Frodo - it could have been another issue though.

I've never used scrapers, only Sickbeard to download the info and inject it into XBMC. I mean, Sickbeard downloads all of that anyways, may as well use Sickbeard to inject it into XBMC instead of both downloading the data twice.

For those interested, progress update on plugin for Frodo:

- base plugin works now. problem was to do with some strange url encoding in Frodo, and as a dirty hack I just unencode it.
- login mechanism untested at this point, to speed up debugging I tested the base without authentication.

Next up to do then I will release the plugin:
- update login code to cache last auth date, and give you guys 30 days without retesting it on every menu entry, which will speed up the menu navigation significantly.
- Test and ensure login code doesn't suffer the same url encoding problem in frodo. I doubt this is necassary, but just to be safe before it goes on to the repo
- package addon and release on my repo.

Happy New year to all members..
I have installed plugin.video.supersport(updated 03 Aug 2012) on my pc for live streaming, perfectly working. When any match starts, it auto detects new stream and working correctly
The problem is that:
The same version I installed on Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1, SS Stream Monitor shows One Stream available but when I click Live streaming of this addon, it starts buffering for 5min and did not find new stream. What is problem? How to fix it so it will work same like as my pc. Experts/Guru plz resolve this issue. Thanks

Great plugin, thanks so much! Is the "highlights" section functional? The menus seems very random and very few of streams listed actually work
