Playing MP3 files stops after every file
« on: August 13, 2017, 03:27:24 PM »
Hello I'm new to this Himedia q5 Pro device. Installed it yesterday.
All is working great except one thing.
I have a problem with playing MP3 audio files with Kodi from my NAS device.
I installed the latest pccristi version with kodi 17.3 on it.
But every time I want to play a whole album the player stops after the first track.
Saying Himediaplayer stopped.
I hope someone can help me with this.

Have you got "play next song automatically" turned on or off?

MP3 audio should play using Kodi internal player, Himediaplayer should not be launching.

Navigate to the file in Kodi and press remote menu button. Do you get a 'play using' option?

PAplayer would be correct, it is Kodi internal audio player.

Weird that you even get a choice for an MP3 file.
