Still working cinemavision?

[skank 3]

Hi, is this addon still alive? @Ragnarok 
Pity cause i liked it a lot in the past.

I'm on kodi 18.5 (about to jump to 18.6) here whats wrong:

- As soon as i start the sequence, i get black screen
- when i try to install the context menu add-on; i get an error
- if it would work again, am i able to add trailers from a playlist from a channel? There are theaters in belgium called "kinepolis", they have their own channel with a playlist showing only trailers that are releaesed in theaters here, it would be cool if i could add it
- i'm using a scope skin from vero4k , however all is good until the moment i start the addon, something is wrong with the picture, its not scope anymore, in settings its ok and works as expected.

Thx for the help

From what I can tell, yes, the add-on is still alive.  Rags has been more active on the Kodi forum than here at the moment and it looks like he's hunting for a new developer to help.  rdsp came to everybody's rescue and patched it to work with 18, so hopefully things are happening on the backend that we aren't seeing.  Hopefully this means we'll start seeing feature requests being worked on again and the forum becoming more active.

Thanks for the well wishes! The latest and greatest stable version is 1.1.1 currently. It took us a while to get that approved for the official repository. I'll be working on bringing our new developer up to speed over the next month or so, and then we can start with new features and completing the features we have in the current pipeline. I'm hopeful and excited that @0raid is taking the reigns and will be able to give us fresh new perspectives and integrations. Our original developer, @ruuk, will still help with direction and steering but will be stepping back from an active development role to focus more on his job and family.

Now for some more good news! The website is back online and snappier than ever. We've successfully migrated to our new server, and while I've got a few weird things going on that I need to address with our CMS, it should be fully functional. If you have any trouble, please let me know.

And for the record: This project was started, and is maintained, with the best intentions. The subscriptions you all purchase are used to ensure this project is sustainable and allows us to purchase new templates for the content we distribute. I know some folks snapped to a decision that the project was dead, and that we grabbed the cash and split. That's on me, honestly. A lack of communication while I dealt with personal and professional changes in my life led to those conclusions. I know that it's been dormant for about a year, but I am working on planning out a new wave of content and updating our current content as well. I've got some new ideas that I'll be workshopping with the team and our new developer. 

In the interest of transparency, here's where we stand: With your support, we've been able to keep CinemaVisions' expenses fully paid which allows us to continue to deliver all of the content on the website, and give folks a place to collaborate on their own content and share it with the community. We've done our best to keep expenses low, and save as much of your donations and subscriptions as possible. We can keep the lights on for quite a while, and as long as the project is able to pay for itself, you don't have to worry about it disappearing. We really appreciate the continued support as we ramp up the new development cycle. This really is a team effort.

Thanks @bullwinkl.  That's the post I was referring to.  I would have thought this would have been better as an announcement here rather than buried on the KODI forum though.

Thanks guys.  I added @Ragnarok comment to the Announcement forum here.

Hello,

I just installed it today and can only get black screen so is not working for now?
Just want to make sure cause I am breaking my head here trying to figure it out. For example I dont find a way to mark a sequence active if I try to make one just for playing my custome HT intro before a movie.
Thanks!

Sounds like it's only working for 18.1 and earlier, I think.  I get the same results as you on 18.6.  Latest announcement on 5/22 is that they have a new dev working on things.

[bullwinkl 22]

I running fine on 18.6.

 

Do you know what version of CV you're running?  I'm running the latest build from here--can't remember the version number offhand, but it fixed a ton of issues people were having after 18.1.

[OTA 78]

According to this, the latest version of CV is on the KODI repository.

I think I'm running the version posted a couple posts down that thread--give it a try.  If what you've got isn't working, give it a try.

Yeah, I was running the version in the official Repo - the version on that thread works, thanks!
