I have the following folder structure.
\\diskstation\Filme\Fifty Shades of Grey Geheimes Verlangen (2015)\VIDEO_TS\Extras\VIDEO_TS
Inside the video_ts folder is the content of the bonus dvd.
if i click on "Extras" i get an error.
Here the logfile
Also i have the following advancedsettings.xml in the userdata folder.

I've been unable to duplicate your crash, but as I looked at the code, I saw how it could happen. In fact, your crash should happen every time, so I'm honestly perplexed about how this was ever working. Ah the joys of taking over someone else's code. Anyway, the change I made didn't make my setup *stop* working, so I'll take that as a good sign. And it should fix your issue.

I testet the zip yet, but it popup an error again.

The bad news is that it's a unicode error, and in Kodi 18 those can be a bear to fix (and I thought we had fixed them all). I'll take another look today.

OK, let's try again.

I'm shooting in the dark a bit because I still can't duplicate your error, so all I can say for sure is that this change didn't make things worse for me.
RE: Extras Addon (Kodi 18/19 and on) - blacksun - 2020-10-18
Yeah, now no error messages popup. Now i get the original folder structure of the dvd, video_ts, audio_ts and so on. i think its better i make a iso file of the dvd, because now i dont know what for a file i must start.
is there no extended icon at the original film? i dont know about every film, there is a bonus dvd inside and i must click everytime on "extras" in the context menu. sorry for my bad english, i hope you understand what i mean :-)

No, there is no extended icon or indicator that a movie has extras. That has been requested, but it requires skins to start supporting it and some kind of substantial changes to the way Extras run, so I haven't looked into it in detail. I honestly took the maintenance for this on just to make sure it kept running in Matrix. I'm not sure I'll be adding any features to it.

I don't have a lot of spare money with COVID but I understand these things may take time and maybe we can raise some funds from other users as well to make the incentive more substantial.
Opening the extras folder with a keyboard short cut - Kcobzo - 2020-11-03
Hi,
in the former thread for this addon, user Kriven asked a question which was not answered, see the link below.
https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=312338&pid=2842669#pid2842669
I'm also interested in that, because I don't like opening the folder by crawling through the context menu.
My idea is to bind the call up of the extras folder to a key in the keyboard.xml. But I don't know how to do it.
Is there someone wit an idea for that?

I agree with you: How should a Keyboard key know what item is highlighted.
I should have thought more about it before asking the question.
RE: Extras Addon (Kodi 18/19 and on) - bsoriano - 2020-11-18
@pkscout , I am also interested in a way to note on a media view if a movie or tv show has extras. I was looking at the old Special Features addon (https://github.com/kasamedia/plugin.video.specialfeatures), and what it did was to add a new art type, called "sflogo". Then, a skin would only need to check if an item has this art type in order to display some indicator that the item has extras. Is this something you would be willing to implement? Thanks for considering this request.
Regards,
Bart

I mostly took over maintenance on it so that it could be ported to Python 3 for Matrix. The source code is available at:

I'd be happy to review a pull request if someone else wants to implement that feature.
