kodi 16.1 shortcuts will not save

[jony604]

The shortcuts the wizard put in are fine but the ones i change they don't save after restart
any one know how to fix this no problem with kod 16.0 thanks

[jony604]

Nobody love me :cool:

Which Skin are you using?

[jony604]

thanks Laser Confluence

a friend updated to 16.1 and he has the same problem on laptop

[jony604]

So all of you out there using 16.1 can save there shortcuts after restart?
after the wizard does its thing and puts what ever under video that saves. What i change does not save
me and my friend's it is hard to believe ? MXIII.G and win 7 + 10
what i m doing wrong?
no problem with 16.0 on all devises

[Kimbo]

On my 16.1 I don't even need to restart, it saves right away!!so once you back out they don't show and then you go back to the System>settings>Appearance>Skin>Settings>Addon Shorcuts>Home page Videos submenu and on each slot they are not there anymore?

[jony604]

Yes they don't save that's what i was trying to tell you .
Not a big deal i love kodi any way it comes. What a fantastic job they have done
how did we survived with out it

Sounds like a skin issue or something went wonky with a config file. Have you tried a reinstall?

the new kodi 16.1 doesn't save like 15.2 does on confluence especially the highway mod, which in my opinion is the best skin to use as you can save 25
too bad

[jony604]

This are Three set up's that don't save can not be all wrong wickedjoker but reinstall was my next thought

[wickedjoker]

I had something similar with a custom build I installed it had to switch to confluence just to make a change and save it so I started over and seemed to be ok after reinstalled kodi and the custom build.

[jony604]

Thanks WJ you mean a new install ? shout again not good at backing things

[wickedjoker]

hahaha yep I get you that's why I use track now no more worrying about back ups... But yes try a clean install...

[jony604]

As mater of fact the android was a clean install after i goofed up


will give that a try Now what is track? it sounds like i would be interested

[wickedjoker]

go to trakt.tv it is tracks all your shows and movies so if you wipe kodi it has it all in the cloud so much easier now.

[jony604]

thanks WJ wil that a go

shortcuts solved system/ Appearance/skin/settings/background options/ change the background path to splash png
make your changes at shortcuts then change back back to skindefault jpg

Hey Jonny I don't know what path to follow after background options. I have 16.1 Jarvis it says enable custom background, could you tell me what path to follow to change to splash.png ? Thanks

[jony604]

ha i just tested post 17 it works on android not on laptop both have the same 16.1

laptop works the proper way just go to shortcuts and it saves

Make your changes, and then switch skins to a different skin and then back to your original skin. This forces it to save all settings.....

Worked for me
