How to Not Play Next

I see the option to select play next video automatically, but I cannot see how to deselect it. I have searched Kodi website and drawn a blank.

Hi, that’s not enough information to do anything with.

  • OSMC on which device model?
  • Which skin is used?
  • For which action in the GUI do you see this ‘play next’ action? Playing a movie, playing a series, playing content in the YouTube addon?
  • Can you show a screenshot of it?

If the problem is not clear even with this minimal information, we need logs:

The best way to get this information is for you to upload logs that demonstrate your problem. You can learn more about how to submit a useful support request here.

Depending on the used skin you have to set the settings-level to standard or higher, in summary:

  • enable debug logging at settings->system->logging

  • reboot the OSMC device twice(!)

  • reproduce the issue (scroll/jump to the near end of the video until you see the ‘next video message’ and stop the playback)

  • upload the log set (all configs and logs!) either using the Log Uploader method within the My OSMC menu in the GUI or the ssh method invoking command grab-logs -A

  • publish the provided URL from the log set upload, here

Thanks for your understanding. We hope that we can help you get up and running again shortly.

OSMC skin screenshot:

I thought there might be a simple answer like something I had missed in the GUI/skin.
I am using the standard OSMC (if I remember right) skin on a Vero V and looking at the services/player screen. The set up is bog standard.
Otherwise thanks for the reply and I’ll just live with it.

Maybe it’s coming from an add-on you are using?

Use the select/return/OK button to navigate down to an individual item instead of the play button if you want to play a single item. Am I correct in assuming your hitting play on a in-progress widget or the top level of a series? If so this is new expected behavior and I’m not aware of a method to change it.
