KODI media player error

Configuration
1

I just upgraded from 0.35.3 to 0.38.3. Almost all is working except my KODI player no longer shows up. I saw the updated documentation, updated my config so it is without http:// but it still doesn’t work.

My config:

media_player:
  - platform: samsungtv
    host: 192.168.0.21
    name: Samsung Smart TV
  - platform: kodi
    host: 192.168.0.11
    port: 8080
    name: KODI

I am getting the following error in my log:

17-02-15 11:35:46 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Error doing job: Task exception was never retrieved

It even gets so far, that when I leave KODI in my configuration I can no longer open frontend of HA. When trying to log in it is connecting for quite some time and then writes “Unnable to connect”.

Wow, I missed that but mine is gone too. I’m already at work so cannot troubleshoot until later.

Mine is doing the same. best to open a issue on github.

I just re-ran the upgrade command for HA. It installed a new version of yarl and everything now works fine. Might want to give that a shot.

I re-ran HA update command and it has indeed updated yarl from 0.9.5 to 0.9.6 but my problem still persists. Kodi doesn’t load:

Ok, got it working now. I had to delete two folders in /home/hass/.homeassistant/deps/:

yarl
yarl-0.9.5.dist-info

I then reran HA upgrade, it installed yarl 0.9.6. I also did pip install yarl --upgrade, rebooted and it’s working now.
