February 20, 201610 yr yep its out, say hello to Jarvis everyone https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/releases
February 23, 201610 yr Still on OE w/ Helix.... I hated that I upgraded one of my htpc's to Isengard, and the "recently added movies" order was wrong. I did not have the heart to re-scan library from scratch. So I quickly downgraded back to Helix.

I did not have the heart to re-scan library from scratch. So I quickly downgraded back to Helix. A lot of times this is a product of the app adding the movies to your movie folder. i.e. I think it is Emby (maybe CP) that has an option to keep the original time stamp from the file, or, re-stamp with current time. Are you sure that wasn't what happened?

Are you sure that wasn't what happened? I am using the MariaDB centralized version. So when upgrading, it should have simply converted the Helix db to an Isengard db... but it's not what happened. In the advancedsettings.xml file there is a variable one can set for the use of the file date. In the past, when re-scraping the library, this has done a decent job of remembering. I could also in Kodi, go to export library, and NOT select single file. This sets that time stamp thing as well.... For me its more of a hassle to do all this. I find that the new versions of Kodi/OE dont bring anything to the table that makes it worthwhile the effort involved. But yet I know I should not fall behind because its worse.... I should bite the bullet. I know I could use the emby add-on... but not sure if it keeps my watched status, or resume from where I left off on different htpc. Thanks John.
February 24, 201610 yr Does it mean for those of us running OpenElec that we can't upgrade our version of Kodi until OE is updated? I am currently running OE 6.0.1 on an Asus Chromebox, I'd like to upgrade to Kodi 16 but can't seem to figure out how.

February 24, 201610 yr Author its coming guys, i think they are close to a release, they got some issues with python 2.7.10 at the mo, plus 3 other blockers, follow here:- https://github.com/OpenELEC/OpenELEC.tv/milestones/7.0.0 6 issues to resolve in total, feature freeze on this so once resolved we should see it released, love OE. edit - oh and dont forget, openelec can now also run docker containers :-) http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=46058.msg440159#msg440159

February 24, 201610 yr I'm trying to come up with a use case for this...specifically things that would tie directly to OE that we cannot do in unRAID. This one is exciting for me for certain family members who just want an htpc, w/ a couple external USB HDD's with media on them. The docker can then do the Sab/NZBGet/Sonar/CP duties. There are current addons that do this but Dockers sounds like a lot less maintenace for these apps; less reliance on the addon authors. My sister was doing this for 3 years until I finally got her her own unRAID server.
February 25, 201610 yr Reading this thread make me glad I abandoned Kodi a few years ago and moved to Plex. No more farting about waiting for Kodi to scrape, no more exploding SQL database connections, etc, etc.

No more farting about waiting for Kodi to scrape, no more exploding SQL database connections, etc, etc. Quite tempting to move to my RPi from OE/Kodi to Plex. The Youtube kodi plugin has been broken for a month now. Additionally PlexPy would then be able to track what is watched on the RPi. I just really like the Xperience 1080 skin on Kodi. And I plan to utilize Kodi's PVR functionality with a remote ServerWMC machine.
