Can indeed confirm that fixes it!
Tusen takk
Now, to figure out to edit that on the Shield. Let's see if one can ssh into those.

just give it 30 mins, i'll push out the fix through repo.
edit: pushed out. give mirrors some time to sync up etc.

hello there
I am using beta4 on linux mint (2:18.0+git20181023.1820-beta4-0xenial)
and was wondering where to find the addon for rar playback?
because I also have partial audio playback on some rars I asume I have it enabled but I cant find it
don't even know how it is supposed to be called...
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - spiff - 2018-10-26
we do not distribute binaries for linux in the same automated manner, it's a more complex task due to system library usage. we hope to get it working the same way at a later stage, but it's not yet in place.
if you use the ppa for ubuntu (looks like it), it's available from there, kodi-vfs-rar, but i doubt the newest version has been built yet, since i just fixed it..
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - homi - 2018-10-26
thank you!
I installed the package...enabled the addon...then modified addon.xml with that additional line and now most stuff (everything I tried) seems to work

Solved my issue using nightly PPA.
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - shaggydo - 2018-12-03
I'm another Leia user that misses the unrar on the fly functionality. Enter a directory with rar files now show as empty. I thinkI need to install this new VFS addon.
But I can't find the VFS addon from Kodi using the search facility.
https://kodi.tv/addons <- no VFS addon found
https://mirrors.kodi.tv/addons/leia/
vfs.rar+android-aarch64/
vfs.rar+android-armv7/
vfs.rar+osx-x86_64/
vfs.rar+windows-i686/
vfs.rar+windows-x86_64/
Now I'm running OSMC which is linux. I wonder if it doesn't show up as there is no linux build?
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - wsnipex - 2018-12-03
linux binary addons are not available on the repo, it's your maintainers job to package them. In your case, it's OSMC.
Did you try: apt install kodi-vfs-rar? At leasts that's how we name the rar addon in our ubuntu ppa
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - shaggydo - 2018-12-03
Thanks for the quick response. It was installed/disabled.
OSMC said "Update: Found one issue, the repo has moved back to https://github.com/xbmc/vfs.rar
On the nightly its still pointing to https://github.com/notspiff/vfs.rar which is 2 commits behind.
I’ll update the binary repo and include the latest in the next nightly. Hopefully it fixes it."
Hopefully that will fix the issues as I can now see the uncompressed mkv, but I get errors in kodi.log.
ERROR: Unable to lookup host: <location/path>
ERROR: Open - failed to open source <location/path>
ERROR: AddOnLog: RAR archive support: GetDirectory: rar lib returned no files in archive , likely corrupt
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - shaggydo - 2018-12-04
Per above post, latest nightly made no difference.
I copied the rar files onto a local disk and ran into same issue.
Any help appreciated rotizurusu.kodi (paste)
FIXED. I wasn't on the latest nightly compiled by OSMC.

Is multi rar brokedn again on millhouse nighlties ? Im having the same syptoms as you guys now.
RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - Ogglas - 2019-02-04
Multi rar seems to be broken for me in release 18.0 "Leia". My Android TV automatically updated from v17 to v18 and now It can't detect movies that were detected before. Tried reinstalling Kodi altogether and also installed the Add-on RAR archive support but nothing works. The only problem is with Multi rar files, .mkv files works as expected. Has anyone else experienced this?

Same problem here, I installed the addons of VFS rar. But it does not work anymore with split rar. If I come back to the V17 everything works

RE: Multi RAR support no longer works - Gomez - 2019-02-06
Solved it. Only using vfs.libarchive and doing a reboot (!). I am on libreelec.
