   <li>jsonResponseReading<br/>
       When enabled then every received JSON message from Kodi will be saved into the reading <i>jsonResponse</i> so the last received message is always available.
       Also an event is triggered upon each update.</li>

+      Defaults to 1. Disable to indicate that PVR is not available on your Kodi device. Basically meant to avoid error messages when trying to access PVR functions.</li>
