Emby changed a lot of things in 4.0, so don't expect any compatibility. Our own fork will eventually be updated: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-kodi

The same error with jellyfin-kodi. And the jellyfin-kodi can't be installed to kodi 17.6.

This issue should be closed imo. We shouldn’t be playing cat and mouse with compatibility.

Agreed, compatibility with official Emby plugins isn't guaranteed to work at all - the fact it does with the logging changes is actually kind of a surprise, but we should focus on our own Kodi plugin, which I believe works? Needs confirmation on that.

The same error occurred in your own Kodi plugin.https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-kodi
It can not installed on Kodi 17.Although it can be installed on kodi 18, it appears invalid username or password

Might be that our fork needs to revert to an old version then. Could be that jellyfin-kodi is also 3.6/4.0 code.

maybe change the issue to be about jellyfin-kodi then, otherwise it's invalid.

I don't have kodi and I think there's probably a lack of testers for kodi so it would be nice if you want to hang in here and help testing it if it gets worked on :)

(mods: maybe move this issue over there)
