Solved Kodi not playing NRG files
#1
Did Kodi stopped supporting NRG files? I can't recall when it last worked as I didn't even know it doesn't play NRG files until I finally looked into why my family isn't able to play many older titles. Here's the text from the log file. If Kodi no longer supports NRG files, is there any good tools that can do batch convert from NRG to ISO?

Hello GAMacky

The nrg file is still listed as a default extension supported in Kodi. Unfortunately I have no such file to test with.

Please provide the Full log with Debug Mode enabled

One of our developers has downloaded and tested your sample and comments as follows...

1. The sample works correctly over local and SMB protocols on his setup
2. The sample you provided is not the same one as detailed in your log.

At this stage the problem cannot be replicated. Maybe you would like to provide the sample that is specifically shown in your previous Debug Log.

The original file was too big for the upload service. They had a limit of 5GB. So only a DVD4 can fit. Not for a DVD9 image. Now I did upgrade my Kodi to 7.6 this last week. And voila, the NRG files now plays just fine. So it was fixed at some point. Thanks for all the help.
