Kodi 17 “Krypton”

[mgouin]

Hello,

I never enabled the "devel repo" but yesterday I did a apt-get update & upgrade and I was surprised that Kodi Krypton Alpha 2 was installed.

Unfortunately, a few of my previously working addons are now not working. Mainly Youtube and Live TV (with tvheadend).

For youtube, the icon is there, but it just won't start when selected.

For tvheadend, I confirmed the service is running (web interface is working as usual when accessed from another computer). I just can't find how to enable the TV main icon in Kodi to access the guide & recordings. I remember in Kodi 16 that it came active by enabling the HTSP PVR client.

I had a hard time coming up with a working Rpi3 + Kodi 16 setup to my likings. I fear from initial impressions of Kodi 17 that the migration will be harder than expected. And I was fully satisfied with Kodi 16.

Was Krypton pushed to "official" updates? Is it possible to downgrade? I was planning on using the btrfs snapshot roll back to do that. Is it the recommended way?

By all means, let me know if I'm missing something important or if it should be smoother than this...

Thanks again for the good work!
