Kodi's profile system is in a very bad shape and buggy. There's nothing I can do I guess.

Even if the 'freezing' is caused by the Helper Addon (script.embuary.helper) itself
?May i spell something wrong.
So just to be sure ...
VIDEO PROOF - freeze JUST if the helper is enabled !!

The helper does nothing with the profiles. It's a Kodi core thing. The service is correctly stopped and after 20s restarted because for whatever reason. That's not triggered by me.

You can try the latest github version. It has a workaround removed to bypass issues with logins.

I have to thanks.
But just one additional Question.
I saw the thread here -> https://emby.media/community/index.php?/topic/49724-support-thread-embuary-a-emby-kodi-skin/page-63#entry750277
So, is
some 'deprecated' bool to let the helper force a ReloadSkin()xml:<onload>Skin.SetBool(ReloadOnLogin)</onload>
Could not find a matching KODI bool , also didnt noticed a difference using it or not.
Is there still some need to set them via skin?
RE: script.embuary.helper - a skin helper service / widgets alternative - sualfred - 2020-04-28
Not required anymore with 19. And afaik it was or is going to be backported to 18.7

Dear @sualfred thanks for this great script.
I'm using your script as widget in artic.horizon skin. But i found that info about episode is not showed as other "Default Widget" for exemple, "recently episode added". check the image. It is possible show the same label as "default widget"?
I've talked with @jurialmunkey and said me that in this case is the addon which has to be modified. Could you tell me which part of the addon i have to mod to adapt to seasonXepisode?
Thanks! Regards.

RE: script.embuary.helper - a skin helper service / widgets alternative - wyrm - 2020-07-11
Sualfred,
I am using the following as a hack to show the number of addon updates pending but the code has a minor problem.
Code:
<include name="AddonUpdated">
<content target="addonbrowser">addons://outdated/</content>
</include> Code:
<!-- Hack to get number of pending updates -->
<!-- Use $INFO[Container(12345).NumItems] for number of updates -->
<control type="list" id="12345">
<left>-100</left>
<top>-100</top>
<width>1</width>
<height>1</height>
<itemlayout/>
<focusedlayout/>
<include>AddonUpdated</include>
</control> Now it works fine, except it also counts the "Update All" entry in the count . So if there is one addon to update the count returned is two. While its not the end of the world, it does set off my OCD.
I thought of using an URL encoded content string might be the way to go, but can't figure out if this is possible for non media content and how to code the string if it is. Could you please
offer any comments on if possible and what I need to include in the string if it is.
Many thanks,
Wyrm (AppTV)
