Emonhub and kodi media center

Hi All,

has anyone tried to have Kodi and emonhub running together?

I have a emonbase with RFM69pi. When I start kodi I lose all packets received from transmitting node. No entry in logs. I think there's some kind of conflict with serial communication.

Thanks,

 Roberto

I have no idea what kodi is or what it is supposed to do, but the serial port can only used by one software at any giveb time, for the rfm69pi and emonhub to work emonhub must have exclusive access to the serial port. If "kodi" try's to interfere that will have "unknown" consequence, in this case it looks like it stops the data, it could corrupt the data or even cause unintended actions from either emonhub or the rfm69pi.

Is there any reason for kodi to be accessing the serial port? if not see if there is away to stop it from doing so.
