  1. Kodi addon for LaunchBox

    Launches LaunchBox in Big Box mode from within Kodi - It will close or minimize Kodi, launch LaunchBox in Big Box mode and when Big Box is exited Kodi will restart or maximize, with the option to run programs pre/post LaunchBox. It works with Windows only.
    Features:
    BigBox Startup video and splash screen support
    LaunchBox and BigBox Updater support
    LaunchBox (Free or Premium) and BigBox mode selection
    Multiple Monitor detection and handling
    Pre/Post scripts
    Minimize or close Kodi option
    Launcher Helper script version check
    Supports Kodi 19, 20 and Kodi Windows Store versions.
    Requirements:
    Windows PC
    LaunchBox (Premium or Free)
    Kodi 19, 20 or Windows Store for Windows
    Kodi 16, 17, 18, 19 for Windows (Up to version 1.5.9, BigBox only)
    Known Issues:
    Due to Windows Store's UWA security restrictions, user must set a save directory under the plugin's Advanced Settings to a directory of the user choice where the plugin's ahk helper script and icon file can be saved.
    Taskbar will flash on Kodi Windows Store version (UWA) using 1.5.4+. Current workaround is to switch to Kodi non-UWA or to minimize effects, enable hide taskbar in advance options, remove Cortana search bar and change taskbar to black.
    Starting with version 1.5.6, due to windows security restriction on SMB shares over IP  (eg. \\192.168.1.1\shared-folder\), the addon will produce an error saying it is not supported. Current workaround is to enable SMB fix in Advance settings to replace IP with supplied server name or enable SMBv1 on server and computer to allow NetBIOS name resolutions in Kodi.
    Kodi-six package is now required with 1.5.6-1.5.9, addon will fail if after first installation of Kodi-six package dependency, Kodi was not restarted.
    Install instructions:
    Use 'Install from Zip' in Kodi and browse to the directory the plugin's zip was downloaded to and select it.
    Configuration:
    This plugin requires the user to set the location of their LaunchBox directory in the addon settings before first use. eg. C:\Users\<username>\LaunchBox\
    PLEASE NOTE:
         THIS PLUGIN WILL PRODUCE AN ERROR DURING INSTALL IN KODI ON ANY OPERATING SYSTEM THAT CANNOT RUN LAUNCHBOX.
         SINCE LAUNCHBOX IS CURRENTLY WINDOWS ONLY THAT IS THE ONLY OPERATING SYSTEM THE PLUGIN CURRENTLY SUPPORTS.
    ATTENTION: WILL NOT WORK ON ANDROID (BOX, SMART TV, ETC.), IOS or MAC AND LINUX.
