I have Kodi version 15.2 (Git:02e7013) installed on a small server. I can connect to it fine via my Android tablet and Kore 2.0.0. Now I've installed "Official Kodi Remote for iOS v1.5.5" on my wife's iPAD (version 7.0.6 (11b865)). It can find the server (fills in IP address, ports, etc.), but any time I try to connect it reports "Bad URL".
We would expect that the server is configured correctly, since the Android remote works, and I've verified that the three critical settings are all correct per guisettings.xml (esallinterfaces, webserver, and zeroconf are all set to "true "). I've run a packet sniffer on the server, and the iPAD never tries to connect at all. This tells me the problem is within the iPAD itself (no connection attempt), and also that this isn't a password issue since that wouldn't show up until after a connection has been established.
If someone knows the solution, I'd love to hear it. Otherwise, how can I diagnose the problem on the iPAD? Are there logs there I can look at?
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
