OSMC's August update is here with Kodi 21.1 - OSMC

News

Then you just need to install the latest version. If you didn’t add it via a repository then Kodi won’t be able to update it automatically. This is one of the downsides of installing via the ZIP directly — when Kodi gets updated, the skin won’t be automatically updated.

I did again a fresh 21.1 installation.
Then I tried to install Aeon Nox Silvo via repository.
The following error message is returned during installation “Failed to install a dependency”.
What can I do?

I checked your log from earlier:

I can access those files just fine here. It looks like a potential DNS problem on your end?

Please start a forum post with full logs of the issue

Dear Sam,
here in Azerbaijan sometimes there are some issues with Internet provider.
This could be the reason.
Thank you for taking a look to my previous log.

Unlucky timing for this to happen with an update.

You could change DNS, but there could be a wider network issue. Unless you are in an urgent need to install the skin, I’d recommend just waiting a few hours and it should resolve itself.

29

I’m absolutely not in a hurry to install this skin.
I’ll contact the provider to understand whether there are some activities on the network preventing proper connection to hosts.

Just a quick heads up for anyone who uses the Rapier skin that Gade hasn’t had the time to do an official update. There’s a workaround for a manual install, however, detailed here:

I downloaded the latest image for the Vero 4K and its only 26mb. Bad upload?

32

Try downloading again. Should be OK now.

33

Gade has been very busy. But he’s an absolute gent. Without him, https://translate.osmc.tv wouldn’t exist.

34

Do let us know how you get on.

I got the timezone reset thing too. Had to go set my local timezone again, then it was happy.

36

Changed the DNS in the router and everything is OK!
Thanks again for your tips.

37

Glad to hear this.

39

Generally works – but can be a bit risky as it depends on how well maintained the skin was for the previous version of OSMC. Obviously if there are any issues with the skin we won’t be able to support these

2 posts were split to a new topic: Vero V remote issue after update to Kodi v21

What was the ninja update about? Had another one today.

42

Not sure what you’re referring to.

I updated my Vero V a couple days ago, got another update today. Was wondering what that one was about.
