RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - MidnightWatcher - 2016-06-29
Awesome, will give it a try!

Build 1.0.12 is working great. Definitely solved my iTunes trailer issues. Thanks!
RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - MidnightWatcher - 2016-07-01
Working great here so far. The first sequence took longer than normal to begin after hitting play but was perfectly fine.

Great to hear! Keep testing. If we don't get many bugs here in the next week, we'll update the repository.

Excellent! When you say longer than normal, how much longer? Is it faster now or did it stay the same? We did add some logic, but I personally haven't noticed a difference.
RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - MidnightWatcher - 2016-07-03
Yes, longer than normal. After pressing "Play" it takes 30 to 40 seconds before the sequence begins. Rebooted, tested it five times, same results. I'm using the RPi2 with OSMC.

Can I get a log from you with debug logging enabled in the CinemaVision settings?

Ok, I did some actual timing using a stopwatch.
Test 1 (Immediately after reboot)
* It took ~ 30 seconds after pressing "CINEMAVISION" in the context menu for the CV sequence selector window to appear.
* It took ~ 73 seconds for the seqence to begin after pressing "PLAY".
Test 2 (Sequence manually stopped, new sequence)
* It took ~ 14 seconds after pressing "CINEMAVISION" in the context menu for the CV sequence selector window to appear.
* It took ~ 5 seconds for the sequence to begin after pressing "PLAY"
Test 3 (Immediately after reboot)
* It took ~ 18 seconds after pressing "CINEMAVISION" in the context menu for the CV sequence selector window to appear.
* It took ~ 103 seconds for the sequence to begin after pressing "PLAY"
Test 4 (Sequence manually stopped, new sequence)
* It took ~ 7 seconds after pressing "CINEMAVISION" in the context menu for the CV sequence selector window to appear.
* It took ~ 68 seconds for the sequence to begin after pressing "PLAY"

Well the down-side is that the log isn't telling us much at all.Can I talk you into enabling debug logging in Kodi as well as in the add-on and upload that log? One thing I did notice is you're using OSMC, which runs on Debian.That kernel has more overhead, and needs more resources than something lightweight like LibreELEC or OpenELEC. That might be part of the reason for your performance issues as well.
RE: CinemaVision Add-on: Create a Movie Theater Experience at Home - MidnightWatcher - 2016-07-06
Funny thing is that all prior versions ran rather quickly each time under OSMC. I'll try enabling debug logging in KODI to see if that sheds any light on the performance issue.

I believe you, I just have no idea what it could be. All of the things that we changed wouldn't affect the time it takes to load the sequence or even the sequence editor. The biggest changes only happen when content is updated, which doesn't happen when the sequence or sequence editor load.

Funny, I ran a sequence a few times and they were all normal ... this was with the RPi2 on for a day. Seems like if I try running a sequence within a few minutes after a reboot is when it takes abnormally long.

Very interesting... I haven't had the chance to talk to our developer about your logs yet. Is it possible that immediately after reboot there's still a ton of stuff using resources? Maybe a bunch of services still starting? Did you get any time to load up an SD card with OpenELEC or LibreELEC? If memory serves you said you were running OSMC on the Pi2. I know Debian is a lot less lightweight, so that could be part of the problem you're seeing. I'm going to keep trying to engage our developer, but I think he's been pulled away to spend time with family on a vacation.

Scott does the cinemavision helper work with Kodi Krypton? The reason I ask is it does not appear in the cinemavision menus. I am unable to access the CV website it has been timing out now quite frequently for more than a week.

Yes sir, I've been using the Launcher with nightlies for months and the recent alpha with no issues. I'd suggest grabbing the development version from the website, here, as in it I've unlocked several other places in Kodi where the menu item appears. I know you said the site has been timing out for you, and I'm hoping it's been intermittent. If not, let me know and I'll throw the file up on Google Drive for you to download.
About the website... we have been having issues with maxing out our dedicated server lately, and in theory we have resolved those issues as of last night. This next bit is very important:
IF ANYONE SEES ANY ISSUES WITH THE WEBSITE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW!
If what we did last night doesn't resolve the problem, we'll be moving into a much beefier dedicated server. The timeouts appear to be affecting people randomly, but I've only heard from 2 other people in regards to timeouts. If you're seeing timeouts, shoot me a PM or post in this thread and let me know how often they happen, when you noticed them, and anything else that you think could be helpful.
