kodi.log -v- kodi.old.log
The Kodi logs are Session Logs. The logs are written from Kodi startup to Kodi shutdown (or crash). The next time you start Kodi, the existing kodi.log is renamed Kodi.old.log and a new kodi.log is created for this new session. In effect you only ever have two logs available- the current one, and the previous one.

Which log you upload depends...

1. If you have created the log which captures the problem and have not restarted Kodi, then upload kodi.log
   
2. If you have created the log which captures the problem and have restarted Kodi, then upload kodi.old.log

I use a Shield TV as well and here's an excerpt where I open the video manager dialog and then select 'Choose art' and the select dialog opens:

code:
2024-05-05 11:55:34.596 T:14569   debug <general>: ------ Window Init (DialogVideoManager.xml) ------

2024-05-05 11:55:34.596 T:14569    info <general>: Loading skin file: DialogVideoManager.xml, load type: KEEP_IN_MEMORY

...

2024-05-05 11:55:40.429 T:14569   debug <general>: HandleKey: return (0xf00d) pressed, window 12017, action is Select

2024-05-05 11:55:40.470 T:14569   debug <general>: ------ Window Init (DialogSelect.xml) ------

2024-05-05 11:55:40.470 T:14569    info <general>: Loading skin file: DialogSelect.xml, load type: KEEP_IN_MEMORY

Ok, wasn't aware that that's how it works... but makes sense. Here is my kodi.old.log after recreating the issue. Thanks!

Is there a kodi_crashlog file in there?

[Cory1980]

I don't see a crash log file in the same temp folder...

From the log he gets a "DialogBusy" which doesn't go away, instead of a "FileBrowser" dialog for selection of the art.
Did you customize Estuary in any way?
I don't know the Android platform, is there a way to backup your use data and try with a fresh installation with as few settings changes from default as possible?
A short video of your steps from the addition of the extra would help understand what's happening.
You could also provide another debug log after enabling the database component in the additional component logging options.

I've also noticed that symbols in an extra's filename are ignored, and have to be manually renamed in the Extras Manager. Maybe this stuff is already planned for future updates to make the Extras feature more fleshed out... and this is just the initial base feature implementation?

Leaving the special characters in doesn't seem to cause problems so I created a change request. Not sure if it can be backported to a future v21.x as it's not a fix technically.

I have a question. Hopefully this is the right place for this. I have a new Kodi install on Ubuntu running Omega. Previously, I had the Extras add on set up and the advanced settings xml file set to exclude the Extras folders from showing up in the movie listing.

Now, the extras are all showing up in the library (from 900 movies -> 3000) all as Extras (2024).  The Settings in the Video Library to exclude the extras appears to have no effect. I'm using Aeon Nox Silvo skin. How do I configure Kodi to stop showing the Extras in the movie listing?

[Hitcher]

You definitely have 'Ignore video extras on scan' disabled?

[mikeSiLVO]

For extras to show up in the library, are you sure that your new install has the extras folders ignored in your new advancedsettings.xml (wiki) file?

Some of the possibilities are listed below:

xml:
		<excludefromscan action="append">

			<regexp>-extras-</regexp>

			<regexp>/Extras/</regexp>

			<regexp>/extras/</regexp>

			<regexp>[\\/]Extras[\\/]</regexp>

			<regexp>[\\/]extras[\\/]</regexp>

		</excludefromscan>

		<excludetvshowsfromscan action="append">

			<regexp>-extras-</regexp>

			<regexp>/Extras/</regexp>

			<regexp>/extras/</regexp>

			<regexp>[\\/]Extras[\\/]</regexp>

			<regexp>[\\/]extras[\\/]</regexp>

		</excludetvshowsfromscan>

The exclude from scan does not affect the extras being added as extras during scan.
