Ok, but it's related to the PIL module.

Code:

For @haicaoboi87 it was related to Inkscape.

Try disabling background bluring. The PIL component doesn't work at your side (it's a Kodi core module)

@haicaoboi87 

Sounds like he is having the same issue you had with your Arch Linux. Maybe you can assist him.

background blur (settings > interface settings > configure skin > Blue background images) is already disabled 

OK, so I disabled 'show fan art in background' and no more errors

I also checked up on haicaoboi87's issue and I had the same docstring error, I downgraded numpy on my machine to <1.16, and that was fixed, but on subsequent runs the NoneType not callable error popped up.
i guess there is some bug in kodi's internal python interpreter and it messes up with numpy package in some way

[sualfred]

All I can say is -> happy package bug hunting  

You should def. open a issue at https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues 
All addons or modules that have PIL as dependency will be affected.

[haicaoboi87]

i can confirm exactly package in linux break embuary helper is python numpy like found out by @syfluqs
now i switch from fedora gnome to opensuse kde, after install many packages i have so much problem with kodi, but seems fix almost issues

Hello, at first, thank you very much for the quality of your skin, it's very appreciated.

I just wanted to point out that with the latest version, 18.7.12, when the skin "dim" for screen saver, it remains "stuck" in dim state.

I am under Windows 10 and Kodi 18.2.

If I can help...

Thank you!

[sualfred]

That's an Kodi Leia issue. I've reported it a 3/4 year ago but it's not fixed yet. I'm mostly facing it with multi monitor setups. Just reload the skin via sidebar or disable the dim screensaver completely.

That's an Kodi Leia issue

Ah, good to know. I noticed it a couple of times on my dual-monitor setup and thought it was a glitch on my computer.

[sualfred]

@Karellen 

I've opened it nearly 1 year ago when you guys were still using trac
https://trac.kodi.tv/ticket/18013

Feel free to ping the correct persons.

[Karellen]

Nobody checks TRAC anymore. Are you able to transfer over to the Issues section on Github?

[sualfred]

Yeah, it was before GitHub. I'll when I face the issue again.

Sorry for the mistake, I never noticed this before the last update, but I confirm that I was in multi screen when it happened, thank you for the info!

[haicaoboi87]

in opensuse, to make embuary run without embuary.helper error, you must install python-Pillow package.You can find it here: https://software.opensuse.org/package/python-Pillow. if you use ommand "pip install pillow" it unused

[sualfred]

Thanks for the heads-up

[haicaoboi87]

Thanks for the heads-up

nothing. your skin works great in my 55" tv

[jbar]

Love the skin, thanks!

I am using it with PlexKodiConnect. I just have two minor considerations for you. Have you thought about giving the option for Poster view of movies to open up the information screen for a movie rather than automatically playing it when selected? Also, maybe an option to reside the list items in list view? The posters/text on the list view are really tiny IMO.

Again, thanks! Love using this setup as a replacement for the official Plex app on Android TV.
