Having problems playing the TV Series "Wayward Pines".
Video does not play from beginning rather than somewhere half way through.
This behavior is the same for all episodes in this series.

I have played other programs and TV Series and cannot duplicate this behavior yet.

Could you please look into this and advise if this is a plugin issue or a possibly a network problem?

Here is my kodi log ... kodi.log

Thank you.

I'm seeing this behaviour across a number of series on SBS OnDemand now. With some series, the behaviour starts part-way through a season, e.g. Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations season 1 and first half of season 2 OK, but after that every episode is borked as described above. A bunch of crime drama shows, the same.

Seems to be new to how some shows are stored / streamed by SBS. First part of show plays, then suddenly the buffering animation shows, and it jumps to midway through the show, plays a second or so, then jumps to near the end, plays another second or so, then ends.

Actually, all seasons of Anthony Bourdain: No Reservations are currently behaving this way. Something has changed, either in the LibreElec envonment or on SBS streaming recently. Some shows play OK, some have this behaviour. Some working as recently as two weeks ago now no longer work.

Example of a show that works OK: Rogue Heroes
Example of a show that doesn't: A Criminal Affair

You're welcome. I'll push a new version in the main repo. You won't auto update now that you've installed that zip above but you can force it from the 'versions' button in the add-on info page. Should be visible to you tomorrow.
