.. but really.. why go through all the trouble when you can jsut set up kodi's built in client, they do the exact same thing.
Ah, I see where the confusion arises.. that's my fault for not stating the problem clearly. Kodi linux does not include a built in stalker client - in fact, there are no pvr's at all in the distro. We install the ones we want to use but in this case it would seem that there are none available for jarvis yet. As a gentoo user I am used to compiling everything, that's not a problem; I just need the source or a generic pre-compiled Sc or ScNFPS. The generic one I used in isengard worked perfectly. I suppose I am stuck with isengard for a while.
Thanks for the replies anyway.
