Expected Behavior

Quasar to run when Kodi starts

Current Behavior

When Kodi starts the above error appear, It was working few days ago, no updates, no new addon installs, Quasar cannot be de-installed because when try to enter into quasar kodi hangs.

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)

Context

Your Environment

  • Version used:
    Quasar 0.9.78
  • Environment name and version:
    Kodi 18 Lea - ALPHA1 - works perfectly with Krypton 17.6
  • Operating System and version:

Will there ever be an update so that Kodi 18 works? I've tried Elementum but it is very slow on Android compared to Quasar (save to disk). I have a 32 GB disk, and watching 20 GB 2160p HDR MKV's was working fine with Quasar.

I need DASH 2160p to work, and only Kodi 18 supports it :/

Any update?
Kodi was auto updated to version 18 and now quasar doesn't load.
Any fix available?

@deleder
Try to use the new version of Elementum 0.1.x (0.1.14 has bugs so use 0.1.13 for now)
It's using the same torrent engine that Quasar is using, and the speed is much better with this version.
(I still don't know if it's compatible with 18, I'm still using 17.6 , but I think it is)

Fixed here for Android arm:
https://github.com/logon84/plugin.video.quasar/releases/tag/v0.9.789

Tried that zip on my MiBox, it installs 0.9.788 and IO Error still happens.

Is 'fp.seek(-40, os.SEEK_END) ' what is causing your IO error (like log on topic)?

I am using the Leia v18.3 version on Android and didn't work. I saw that ELEMENTUM addon had the same issue and was solved:
https://github.com/elgatito/plugin.video.elementum/issues/66
I tried replace the daemon.py file of the quasar to elementum, obviously changing all "elementum" words to "quasar", but didn't work.

@logon84
I appreciate your great intention to help but now the Quasar stop and restart 3 times until to be canceled.
Worked fine with Kodi 17.5.
My Android is Lollipop 5.1.1 (api 22) armv8
