(the movies are in the kodi library, and organized through the smart playlists that are then seen on the android tv home, like in your post)


Many thanks in advance 🙏

so if you want to compile your own version of kodi, my post shows the 2 needed changes - https://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=373827&pid=3160492#pid3160492

there is another change i didnt mention in that post which is in this file - https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/blob/master/tools/android/packaging/xbmc/src/XBMCJsonRPC.java.in

the change is just changing instances of showinfo=true to showinfo=false or removing the parameter altogether

im trying to get further along with this but as im not familiar with the code its more time spent learning how kodi is coded and less changing things
