Refresh button/icon missing from some TV series - m3freak - 2021-03-16

I'm using LibreELEC to run Kodi and have been for years now. While everything seems be working fine, I noticed that when I press "i" on some TV series, the "refresh" button/icon is missing. For other series, it's visible by pressing the right arrow. The ones that display the refresh button/icon, there is an indication to the right of the row of icons that there are more icons. This "indication" is missing for those TV series that I can't refresh.

I noticed the difference when I went to force the refresh of a series that was missing a season poster: the button was missing and the refresh wasn't possible.

Another issue I've had for a long time is cleaning up the library is slow. I couldn't figure out why until I used the debug log and saw that many URLs were timing out during the library clean.

I searched around for solutions to both and found some suggestions:

1. when deleting media, delete from the Kodi library first and then on the storage
2. delete the Textures13.db file which will force a rebuild of it

#2 fixed the slow library clean problem: it's now very fast. #1 and #2 didn't fix the missing refresh button/icon issue. Does anyone know to get the refresh button back?

It shouldn't be missing. Do you have an internet connection? Some buttons are hidden if no internet connection exists.

Can you post a screenshot of the missing button.

Button 14 or 19 to upload images

The system definitely has a network connection because my Trakt integration is working. I'll take a couple of pics and post them.
