Does anybody who owns a Neeo also have the Kodi full driver?

[paulromi 5]

I was just curious if the Kodi full driver shows anything on the Neeo screen.  Movie covers etc?

I don’t use Kodi, but if I remember right Alan showed some screenshots and it looked like it did.

Sounds promising.   On the fence for that remote.

The Neeo remote is awesome!

 

Screen art shows up on it - when I stream tidal the album art shows up, so I'd expect the same with Kodi.

Let me check what happens and I'll let you know.

That might be a stretch in logic - the two are not the same proxy I believe.

In fact I don't believe it displays the current movie playing (just the device), though I do believe you can search movies on it.

Here's a pic of movie listing using the Full Kodi driver.

And here it is showing the cover art and titles on the kaleidescape movies.

Again, this is a stretch of logic, as the two things are NOT one and the same. One is a native streaming service that has no source associated with it. The other is an actual outside source that needs control and thus a selection so I would expect to see the Kodi Icon, not the current playing movie.

This is actually correct.  You don't see the current playing source purely because it is a multi proxy source.  The media player proxy which we need to utilise to provide the transport controls is what we use once the movie is selected.  This proxy does not support artwork.
