HTTP 401 when using credentials not defined in backend.

[mpmc]

+Description+

Catch all account enabled to allow any user/pass access to all features set in Tvheadend.
Dummy user and pass set in pvr.hts kodi addon.

+Issue+

Using the above configuration the imagecache results in a 401 error when pvr.hts requests icons using the dummy account not defined in Tvheadend. If you add the dummy account to Tvheadend and reconnect the icons are served correctly.

Never thought of this possibility, I'll look into it.

Does it work if you leave username/password empty in the addon settings?

[Jalle19]

As discussed on IRC, users should leave username and password empty if they have configured tvheadend with a "catch all" account. Changing the behavior would require changes in Kodi itself.
