Every time i startup kodi, a popup "select main server" about jellyfin-kodi HOT 9 CLOSED

Looking through the logs it looks like the addon is having issues with saving and retrieving addon settings. I also see that your server name in not in english and in my testing this seems to produce the same issue you're having. Could you change the server name to an english word to test if this stops the popup coming up?

Some extra information will make tracking this down much easier.

• What device is Kodi running on?
• What Kodi version number?
• Is your Jellyfin server on the local network, or remote?

Have you tried reinstalling the Kodi app, then the jellyfin addon to see if the problem persists?

If you have and it's still popping up each time could you provide us with the kodi log from your device. Since it's an android I believe the easiest way to get the log is to install the kodi log updater addon from the kodi repository and then you can share that URL with us

@TrueTechy it's ok, you are right，i changed the server name, the popup not coming up

Good catch. We should fix this in the code, imo. The server doesn't have any restrictions on what the name can be, so we should support any options as well. Reopening so we can continue tracking the issue until a fix is implemented.
