Kodi with Seren - Playback failure

Kodi
1

I successfully completed installation of Kodi 19.3.0 from the Troypoint Rapid Installer, and followed directions from Troypoint for installing Seren with Real Debrid and Trackt enabled.

When I try to play any of the links returned, I get a “Playback Failed” error box that says “One or more items failed to play> Check the log for more information about this message”. The log has no information in it that would point to an issue.

Can anyone help me with info on resolving this?

Hi @Slamoreux
Make sure, if this isn’t a fresh install of Seren, that you update Seren.
This maybe a spelling error when installing the scrapers. Try this…… Provider Tools> Manage Provider Packages> Install Package> Web Location> http://bit.ly/a4kScrapers > Install>ok Then hit your back button a few times to go back to Kodi Home Screen and test it out using real-debrid Good luck

Heyyyyy:)

…was reading this and another recent seren thread with similar issues.
—-So: I have/have had it installed and running properly n working pretty good.
———Fast forward to yesterday:
I’ve updated, double checked all settings, etc.

My seren is also now…a lot of the time.saying ‘no playable sources found’???..
Hmmmm… very strange indeed… thoughts?:slight_smile:

@ztrb

Seren only works with real debrid or a perimum link service.

Check to make sure your time didn’t run out.

I have been having the same problem with Seren for a long time. I have given up and now use Crew exclusively.

Hello Everyone, I addressed this Seren problem in Advisor today. Here are most common problems people are having troubles.

  1. Using a VPN not compatible with Real-Debrid. If you’re using IPVanish VPN, you have nothing to worry about as it’s 100% compatible with Real-Debrid.
  2. When configuring the Seren add-on, you aren’t taking the extra step to install the necessary scraper. You must read the entire Seren guide…all of it.
  3. You’re making a mistake when typing in one of the addresses for either the Seren addon itself or the scraper. Take your time and double check your spelling. One wrong character in either of those addresses and this won’t work.
  4. Your Real-Debrid account has expired. Keep in mind, you must have a premium account for this to work properly and they don’t notify you when your account has expired.
