Sincerest thanks. Another winner

[Atreyu]

Thanks again for another one

[AntiPontifex]

Would someone please be kind enough to look at this addon? It has a lot of interesting material.
In its current state, if one selects an item to be played, it starts and stops almost immediately.
If anyone _does_ happen to try and repair this addon, thank you.

Are you running the fraserc or MetalChris version.  As an aside the NFPF can also be found as a category in the Internet Archive addon for those who may not be familiar

[AntiPontifex]

*slaps head" I should have looked at the Internet Archive. My bad: thanks for replying.

Still, the addon should be fixed and be able to work.  When it was fixed for Matrix I couldn't run it because it wouldn't run on Win 7. 

The problem with Internet Archive is, I don't think there is a way to search categories, you may have to scroll through 90 pages (who knows how many)  Make sure to favourite the category when you find it so you can get to it again without the searching for it.  I've never used bookmarks in Kodi, I have to see how that works.

I agree. After my reply, I went to try and find the folder with this material: I couldn't.
So, if someone out there in code land would be kind enough to fix the original add-on, gratitude can be had.
I was using the NFP addon on a nVidia (Android OS) fwiw.

Just wondering if anybody would be willing to look at fixing/updating this addon, thanks

To be clear, I did not repair the fraserc add-on, I merely fixed the Matrix version of the add-on I had released in 2017.
