I have definitely experienced this issue a number of times recently using the intro skip function of the plex kodi connect plugin too.
Hope it can be resolved easily.
Thanks for your effort!
Hi
Hopefully the issue is now addressed.
I’d appreciate it if you could test this and provide feedback before we potentially release this as an update to other users. To test this update:
- Login via the command line
- Run the following command to add the staging repository:
echo 'deb http://apt.osmc.tv bullseye-devel main' | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list - Go to My OSMC → Updater → Manual Controls → and select Check for Updates now. When prompted to do so on screen, please choose to install the update.
- Your system should have have received the update.
Please see if the issue is resolved.
I also recommend you remove /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list after updating.
This will deactivate the staging repository. You can do so with the following command:
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/osmc-devel.list.
Please note that we will automatically disable this update channel after 14 days on your device in case you forget to do so to ensure that your system reverts to the stable update channel.
I can confirm it appears to be resolved.
quick buffering spinner when skipping to 9:58, but it seeks accurately and after a several tests it hasn’t reset to 0:00.
Thanks for your time on this, it is greatly appreciated.
Yes, that buffering is pretty normal, since Kodi starts at the key frame before the requested timestamp. Then it needs to decode every frame until the requested one is found. And that takes some time in your case and that causes that buffering message.
