update to Python 3 (Kodi v19) #45

Dinth · 2020-09-08T07:14:36Z

Can the addon be updated to Python 3 so it works with Kodi v19?

Lxtxs · 2021-03-04T21:28:18Z

Yes Please. That would be really great.

Caligo82 · 2021-03-10T23:22:20Z

Yes please, that would be highly appreciated. Can't get around Netflix these days. And afaik this is the only way to make it happen on Shield TVs.

Guys, you can use platform capture, it works with kodi. Just set environment for your display in hyperion systemd unit.

And how do I send the information via lan to the pi running the Hyperion.ng?

May be it is possible use DISPLAY=your_kodi_host:0.0 env, if you running kodi on linux.

Not if you are running Wayland.

BTW, I tried around a bit to upgrade the plugin to Python 3, but it seems to be more complicated. The plugin depends on the script.plugin.protobuf plugin (https://github.com/WoLpH/kodi-protobuf) which also is only available for python2 (and has not been updated since 5 years?).
With the Python-Tool 2to3, I was able to convert all files of hyperion.kodi as well as script.plugin.protobuf to python3. However, there also seem to be some deprecated functions in kodi, at least "xbmc.abortRequested" does not work anymore, but can apparently be replaced with: "xbmc.Monitor().abortRequested()". With this fix, the plugin loads in kodi and settings seem to work. However, it does not seem to properly connect to Hyperion, so there's that. I guess this will take a lot more work, probably somewhere in the whole protobuf-fu, but that seems beyond my capabilities.

I got a little further.

Installed python3 protobuf (pip3 install protobuf)

Changed line101 in resources/lib/state.py to
hexdata = bytes.hex(binascii.b2a_hex(self.__data))

as binascii.b2a_hex no no longer returns a string, but it still aint working, not sure if that was the right approach not seeing any errors in the log either.

ghostface · 2021-05-14T10:45:12Z

I got it working again - will cleanup the code and post fork later

Basically

        hexdata = binascii.b2a_hex(self.__data)
        if len(self.__data) > 0 and not hexdata.startswith(bytes.fromhex('0000000000000000')) and not hexdata.startswith(bytes.fromhex('000000ff000000ff')):
(...)
                self.__hyperion.sendImage(self.__capture.getWidth(), self.__capture.getHeight(), self.__data,
                                          self.__settings.priority, -1)

and this in Hyperion.py is needed

imageRequest.imagedata = bytes(data)

pety3bi · 2021-05-14T15:21:26Z

Could you please provide a patch with working solution or even better, a pull-request?

ghostface · 2021-05-14T18:18:41Z

yes I will

ghostface · 2021-05-14T19:19:46Z

There you go: https://github.com/ghostface/hyperion.kodi
Due to direct monkey patching script.module.protobuf and a small additional change regarding flickering issues I had, I didn't create a direct pullrequest.

Feel free to rework it into a proper pullrequest or cherry pick the changes (I tried to segment them logically)

ghostface · 2021-05-14T19:23:52Z

I also just noticed someone else also forked a version that according to the commits may work with kodi matrix and python3 but I haven't tested it personally https://github.com/CPVprogrammer/kodi-matrix-hyperion-addon

I also just noticed someone else also forked a version that according to the commits may work with kodi matrix and python3 but I haven't tested it personally https://github.com/CPVprogrammer/kodi-matrix-hyperion-addon

It seems it just works. I uninstalled the version 1.0.2, preserved the old configuration and I installed the 1.0.3 from CPVprogrammer repository.

rtehok · 2021-09-12T08:06:18Z

Did someone try https://github.com/CPVprogrammer/kodi-matrix-hyperion-addon v1.0.3 on kodi 19.1 with an Android TV? I have Hyperion.ng installed on a rpi4 and I can't make them work together.

Same problem, any updates ?

Same problem, any updates ?

I was able to pass the error by adding this in the kodi launcher script:

export PROTOCOL_BUFFERS_PYTHON_IMPLEMENTATION=python

EDIT: also make sure the priority is set to 150.

Thanks! but i'm using an AndroidTV box, so i'm searching for some grabber that could work on android... Inside kodi or as a atandalone apk. I can get the menu's to work( I've got hyperion.ng runnning as addon on HomeAssistant), just not the content of some apps... the leds all turn green (using android screen grabber). The kodi addon I can't manage to get it working right now...
