Kodi Matrix does use python 3. It is the minimum version used.

Sounds like you are trying to install an imcompatible addon? Explain what you are trying to do and we might be able to help.
Just ensure it does not involve addons that are banned here... Banned Add-ons (wiki)

xbmc.python 3.0 is current in Matrix (3.0.0) and Nexus (3.0.1).  The actual python engine I think is platform dependent.  For windows it's 3.8.10.  I think for Linux Kodi uses the system python.  So in general an addon written against Python 3.6 or up should be OK, though be careful with 3.10.

Hi there, I didn't want to create another thread since this is already here. I am starting with a fresh install of Kodi, my original installation was old and had issues with crashing, so I deleted the entire portable_data folder and updated to the latest nightly (from last week, so it isn't the most bleeding edge version but I am on nexus). Anyhow, I am wanting to incorporate my music into my library and I like having granular control over my local artowrk and nfo files so I tried using mediaelch for my music but it is being strange about not finding any of my albums...so, I figured I would give CDArtmanager a try because I used it years ago and loved it, unfortunately it gives me an error about the python version not being satisfied (2.19). So, I have been searching, trying to figure out a way around this and found this post, I figured I could ask you since you offered help to the OP.

I opened the addon.xml and edited the Python dependency to 3.0 and 3.1.0 yet it still gives me that error, the only difference is instead of saying 2.19 like it did previously, it now shows 3.0 and 3.1.0. 

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Wild! Litterally 2 minutes after commenting here, I found THIS. So my problem seems to be solved, it at least installed without any errors.

Edit 2: Well, that didn't work. It doesn't even launch HERE is my log. I would really like to get this addon going, even if the alternatives (Artwork Dump and generic scraper) do work, I like having options and being able to say, "I fixed that".

You can't just randomly change the dependencies in addon.xml to Python3 and expect the addon to work.  The addon has to actually be updated for Python3.  It looks like CDArtmanager was abandoned years ago, so you're probably out of luck.

CDart Manager is way out of date with how art is now processed in Kodi.  If you are looking for a project probably better to get Artwork Beef and learn how to update python scripts from python 2 to python 3 then update that one.

This thread should be under support anyway, not discussions.

I'll move it.

Sorry for the delay, I don't get on the forums very often. Thank you for the response as well, I figured this was the case but thought it wouldn't hurt to try. I am not well versed in Python, only AHK, so I will find another way. Thank you very much!
