changing server not working if one of the servers is offline

[bendschs]

Describe the bug

When multiple connections are configured and only one of the Kodi servers is not online it‘s not possible to switch to one of the online ones. A red colored window that comes up saying "unknown error" offering to change the server, but changes don't seem to be applied.

If all Kodis are online everything works as expected.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1 click the addon button
2 Switch off one of the configured Kodi devices
3 Red window with "unkown error" appears
4 Try to switch to another server fails

If you don't run multiple kodi devices you can also simulate this by adding a fake connection which then shows up as "offline" in order to reproduce the behavior

Expected behavior

Changing Server in red error window should do what it's supposed to. Also maybe it should not be colored in alarming red since this is not a severe error, at least in my eyes and with my setup where not all of the kodi devices i operate are not running all the time.

Environment

• Cast Kodi version: 6.9.0
• Brave Browser (basically Chromium): 1.44.150
• Kodi version: 19.4

@bendschs Thanks for the feedback.

I have released a new version 6.9.1 which fixes the problem. It's being reviewed for the Chrome Web Store (it takes 2 - 3 days). And it's already available at Firefox Browser Add-ons.

Until the extension is released, a workaround is to use the context menu to change the server.

thanx for the quick answer and more importantly the great extension. it's actually amazing how many websites it can handle. i experienced some rendering glitches with some of the them but in general it works very well, plus it's probably kodis fault anyway.

cheers
