Hello, i am a happy user from homeassistant and i am in the phase of expanding into more things of my house. So i came across the kodi addon that i wanted to discover.
This needs a ling term token which i created, but seriously?!
Who can type that amount of upper/lower plus numbers and symbols by hand qithout messing up? I tried tons of times now, created the token from an admin account but i cannot get the addon to connect and my hass is constantly reporting a unsuccessful login attempt.
Thx for any help
Hass is bare metal with supervisor etc…and newest updates.
Can you acces both machines from the same browser? If so, copy/paste…
Helli and thx for the quick answer…havent found a way to copy paste since kodi does not allow it.
Open for suggestions…especially since capital i and small l small o, capitol o and 0 are so close that i actually have to just guess…
And why does it have to be a drillion characters long?
Because of security. How longer, how more difficult to “guess” by a hacking bot.
You could just go to the addon directory itself in kodi and find the spot its in (settings.xml) and paste it in there and restart kodi. via ADB? or where ever you have kodi installed.
If nothing else, you should at least be able to copy and paste the token from your “regular” computer (or whatever you’re using to access Home Assistant) into some text editor, where you can change the font to one you’re familiar with and where you can more easily distinguish these characters.
Hello…thx for the tips…i was afk for a little and will now try your suggestions…
Will keep you posted…thx alot so far already…didnt think of the settings file…will try that
Hello again…
The copy paste into the settings xml worked like a charm…god, how dumb can someone be sometimes to not think of that myself…
Thx alot!!
Hope i can help some day myself
