Wake-On-Lan runs in Home screen because folder.jpg access - Koder123 - 2021-03-19
Hello, I have set up Kodi built-in WOL to wake up my server.
The problem is, I mostly watch TV for which server is not needed (PVR server is other server and never sleeps), when I enter Home screen WOL is triggered because of access to smb://server/share/folder.jpg.
By disabling some artwork I noticed that this is only happens once after Kodi is started, I guess after this file gets cached or something. But since I'm on Android TV Kodi gets restarted sometimes and WOL is activated unnecessarily.
Is there some way I can prevent "folder.jpg" accesses completely and only wake up then server when Videos sections are accessed?

More details: skin is Kodi default Estuary, only TV/Movies/TV Shows in Home screen. No Music/Pictures in ome screen or shares.

OK I believe this problem is solved by setting local thumbnails for video sources in source configuration.
