New User - Cinema Vision addon won't work

[powervixen 0]

Hi there,

I'm a new Kodi user, and I'm trying to figure out why the Cinema Vision addon won't work. I followed the set-up CinemaVision instructions provided, placing my local content on a networked external hard drive. In the addon settings, I directed the location to be in the same folder. I pressed update content, and the folders are there. I am using the default 2D sequence until I know it works. When I go to the menu and select CinemaVision, the screen launches with the movie queued, and the option to select the sequence. However, when I press play, it crashes and gives me a check log error. Since I am on a Kodi TV Android box, I don't know how to attach a log file for review. (Again, I'm very new to Kodi). Not sure where I might be going wrong.  Please help!

Hey there! After it created the directories, did you put any content in them? Do trailers work? The default Sequence should stream them from iTunes. If you didn't put content in the directories, you'll want to do that and then do another content update to scrape all the new stuff in. Here's a handy guide for uploading your log using the Pastebin log uploader and other methods:

Load up Kodi, enable debug logging, do a content update, and then playing your sequence. After that upload your log for us to review.

Thank you. I'm still having issues, but it worked once. I queued the movie, selected CinemaVision, and when I pressed play, it launched a new movie trailer. Then the screen went black, and now each time I can't get anything to work. I will load content tonight, and see if I can figure out how to get the log file uploaded from my external kodi box. I can't seem to find where on the box the file is stored.  Definitely going to keep trying!

You don't need to know where the file is stored if you use one of the log uploaders, you'll just need to type out the URL for us to view.

I tried to use Kodi Log Uploader and I got an error. Something is definitely funky with my Kodi box! Ugh!

Try the one built into the CinemaVision settings, as referenced in the guide.
