Hi,

I have a small problem, on my laptop I have Kodi 15.1 and VC V2 beta running. When I hit the update library on my laptop I get an event for start and finish.
On my HTPC I have the same setup, however I do not get those and when I want to run the VC add-on I get the following n the log:

8/22/2015 7:30:28 PM   304   [plugin] prepare socket for notifications
8/22/2015 7:30:28 PM   304   [plugin] Creating events
8/22/2015 7:30:28 PM   304   [plugin] Opening a connection to XBMC
8/22/2015 7:30:29 PM   305   [plugin] Could not open a connection to XBMC|No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:9090
8/22/2015 7:30:29 PM   305   [plugin] Failed to open socket
8/22/2015 7:30:29 PM   305   Action ERROR: Connect failed

What do I need to change to make it work?
Thanks in advance!

first off welcome to VC and the forum,  ::wave

first thing I would check is your Xjson plugin and make sure you have it setup with the correct IP address and port,  and click test connection to see what the little popup window is showing, I've had it before where I had to select "Alternates Notification" and then click "Save Options"

if that doesn't work and you are using an Advancedsettings.xml with Kodi then I would check to see if you have a setting that changes the port that Json commands are set on, if so then in your Xjson plugin in VC you will want to change the port to match

Thank you for the warm welcome  :)

It appears I did not check all the settings I should have  :bonk . The show all events marker was unchecked and after I unchecked the port 9090 option it seems to work!

Thanks for helping out and on another subject, I do like your video on sending and pulling data to and from different computers!
