I'll have to check on the icon field with Estuary. In the Arctic Zephyr skin I made it so that the boxfront is the default image when showing games. But that only applies to that skin.
On collection level, opening up the context menu, you can go to 'Choose defaulty Asset/artwork..' which gives you the option to select the asset you want for Icon etc. However, you can not do this on a virtual collection like 'Most played'.
I think that I do not copy the settings for Icon etc when adding the game to the most played. Could be because of boxfronts between systems are not all the same size, like between SNES boxes and Megadrive boxes. I will have to rethink that part and fix it with the next release.

• Added support for PEGI rating
  
• Fixed bug deleting collections
  
• Proper icon/thumb mapping for virtual collections
  
• Fix adding to favourites
  

• Retroarch launching on Android working with Kodi Nexus
  
• Nvidia Gamestream launching (Nvidia Shield) working with Kodi Nexus

Looks like some python version issues. It should be no problem if you have > Python 3.7. 
Can you give me some system specs (OS, kodi version etc.). If you have access to a shell/bash/cmd try to type in "python --version" or "python3 --version" and see what it says.
If you are able, see if you can upgrade to a newer version of Python.

Hey, thanks a lot. Upgraded first to 3.7 and then to 3.10 and got the same issue after both upgrades (3.10 is now set as default). I'm using Kodi Matrix running on Ubuntu bionic. AEL works well.

Either I am too dense or something is not working as it should. Hope someone can help me here with that :/

And do you get the exact same error message? It looks like Kodi is then still not using the newer versions of Python. I need to check how Kodi actually uses Python on Ubuntu. It is common to have multiple Python versions on a OS/system, also it is common to create virtual environments for each python application. So perhaps that your Kodi instance is still using a old version of Python in its virtual env. Anybody else with some background knowledge here on the forum? I dont have a Ubuntu system with Kodi running here, so I will need to set it up to test it myself.

Here some background about python versions and kodi on linux/ubuntu:

I will see if I can find out more myself. If you or anybody else has some more input, please let us know.

Thanks, I'll look into those when I have some time. I vaguely remember reading that Kodi ships with its own version of Python?

No problem and I think it is probably an easy fix. I bet you open up AKL through the programs menu/source type. If you open it up through the Game menu/source type it will give you all the desired options.
So add the menu item from the games addons and not from the program addons.
