What Problem Does This Solve?

On a Raspberry Pi with LibreElec, Kodi serves as an excellent media center, that can easily be plugged in a television. Amongst others, I have the official plex addon for videos and this composite addon for music installed inside Kodi. The system runs outside my home network and I have implemented a bash script inside the OS LibreElec, which is started on boot and which checks every couple seconds, if the plex addon is running. If so, a port forwarding to my homeserver is established and plex works fine. I would like to implement the local port forwarding also when the connect addon is used. Unfortunately, I do not find a good way to detect, if the composite addon is running. For plex this was easy. When plex exits, a log entry in the kodi.log file is placed with the string "REALLY FINISHED".


Suggest a Solution (optional)

The composite addon does not indicate something similar to the plex addon in the log file. Is it possible to have a log-file entry, when the addon starts and finishes? That would be great and in my case of big help. Thanks for your time and this great software.


The kodi.log already tells by greping for Composite with a capital "C".. never mind. Delete all of this, if you can;-)
