Apparently this is a bug and has been fixed in Kodi and will be included in the next media centre update according to the following post:
Does anybody know if this fix has already been rolled-out to Vero? I guess not since I am getting the issue on my new Vero. How can I tell if/when this will be fixed? Meanwhile I am going to try to figure out how to create and add the advancedsettings.xml file on my Vero. If anybody has more detailed instructions I would really appreciate it as I am completely new to this.
Many thanks!
