[labdiynez]

Help yourself

• I did try to restart Kodi :-)
• I checked the PKC Frequently Asked Questions on the PKC wiki
• I did try to reset the Kodi database by going to PKC Settings -> Advanced -> "Reset the database and optionally reset PlexKodiConnect" and then hitting YES, NO
• I did check the existing issues on Github

I can confirm this bug. I fear that the culprit might be #2061 and a racing condition. Investigating....

Nope, that change is not the culprit.

I'm also seeing duplicated movies in my Kodi. PKC 3.9.3.

[croneter]

The culprit is our new feature #2041. Movies that have several editions (e.g. director's cut, normal version) get an additional entry in the Kodi database on each restart of Kodi (or each full sync).

Can someone quickly confirm that please?

[thorindwarf]

You are right about the increasing after restart but I only have duplications for 1 movie (currently 121 of them) but it has one single edition/version.

OK this is a nasty one, because all of a sudden I don't have this issue anymore 😢

@thorindwarf: could you please enable debug logging, restart Kodi, CHECK the number of duplicates you have, then additionally start a manual library sync (video => video add-ons => PlexKodiConnect => Perform manual library sync) 3 times (wait a while to make sure a sync completes), then check the number of duplicates again, then share the log file?

@thorindwarf I think I got it, fixing now... No need for log files 😉

I upgraded to 3.9.4, reset db of course and now I'm getting these in the log. Sorry for the bad formatting:
