performance difference between Windows and Android

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I installed Embuary(Matrix) in Kodi 19.1 Windows(my testing grounds) and setup to look like Plex (My Daughter is used to Plex and likes it).
I have a 4 HDD bay connected via USB3 to my router that contains my local media
I setup Video Sources paths to these locations over SMB.
Left menu I added 4 paths via Home>Edit menu config:
Kids TV > Video Library > Sources > Kids TV > Create Menu item Here > Display: TV Shows
TV > Video Library > Sources > TV > Create Menu item Here > Display: TV Shows
Kids Movies > Video Library > Sources > Kids Movies > Create Menu item Here > Display: Files View
Movies > Video Library > Sources > Movies > Create Menu item Here > Display: Files View

I scanned all 4 sources into library and setup Slide layout for all.
On Windows this setup works as I think it should and how i think my daughter will like.

On Android TV this setup works partially but has some serious issues.

  1. when opening the 2 movies versions mentioned above via side menu they work, no issues
  2. when opening the 2 TV versions mentioned above the first page works, i get all the TV series folders in slide, selecting a series goes to what should be the season slide but it goes to a no info big list of season, blindly picking one gets the episodes in big list.
  3. If I switch the TV paths to Display: Files View like Movies when clicking on left menu item it goes to a duplicated menu of the sources list, click on one of the TV sources I get what Windows shows
  4. Also watching some shows plays audio but not video(its like the video player is in the background) and works in Windows fine

this is just what I have noticed this morning, I have had to switch my daughter back to Plex for now till this is sorted out.
Let me know if you need screenshots of anything or any specific logs.
thanks

I have the same serious issues too.
On Google Tv, the kodi 19.4, wheen choose TV series would display many folders , anyone has ideas, how to fix it ?
