Cannot play anything from Videoland about plugin.video.retrospect HOT 19 OPEN

This is caused by your Python environment on your Linux system:

ImportError: PyO3 modules may only be initialized once per interpreter process

I would suggest try downgrading cryptography and see if that solves your issues.

from plugin.video.retrospect.

I had a look around the internet and found the cryptography downgrading advise to seemingly apply to people who were using version 40 or 41. The advise seems to be to downgrade to version 38. For example here. In my case, I am using version 38; at least that's what it looks like.

$ pip list | grep cryptography
cryptography                       38.0.4
types-cryptography                 3.3

FWIW, I am running Kodi 21 on a fresh install of Raspberry Pi OS 12 (64 bit).

And what Python version are you running?

from plugin.video.retrospect.

Python version is 3.11.2. This is a fresh install of "Raspberry Pi OS with Desktop 64-bit" on an 8 GB Raspberry Pi 5.

Ok, so I would suggest running LibreElec instead of Rasbperry Pi OS. LE is much more optimized and it will have less issues with Python conflicts like you are having.

Ok, I have rebuilt the entire system, now running LibreELEC 2024.08. Following the installation, I installed Retrospect via the Kodi add-ons. I entered my username and password for Videoland. I can browse to Videoland, but playback fails. I tried watching the second episode of "Te land ter zee en in de lucht" and a random news episode.

I have uploaded the kodi.log file and the retrospect.log file. It would be great if you can have a look.

Thanks.

So we are a step closer! Please create a debug log for that. Enable debug logging in Retrospect, try playback again and then upload a new log file.

from plugin.video.retrospect.

I created the debug log. Here is the one for Kodi: https://pastebin.com/5uFdvPAD

Whenever I upload the one for Retrospect, pastebin keeps telling me: "This page is no longer available. It has either expired, been removed by its creator, or removed by one of the Pastebin staff."

The log is about 260 KB; FAQ tells me the limit is 512 KB. Not sure why it isn't working. I will look for an alternative.

Ok, this should be the retrospect.log with debugging enabled: https://privatebin.net/?d326b51b11319a33#BByoxZ3w4eunrQqwhntuFkfRdP4sZiuVPaqLcCxFGS5T

Branch bug-1834 was created for issue: "Cannot play anything from Videoland"

• Url: https://github.com/retrospect-addon/plugin.video.retrospect/tree/bug-1834

from plugin.video.retrospect.

Can you install https://github.com/retrospect-addon/plugin.video.retrospect/archive/refs/heads/bug-1834.zip, and try again. It won't fix anything, but logs a bit more. Then upload the log debug retrospect.log again.

I checked the upload feature, and it works as expected, so please check that you are not mistaking a zero for an "o" or something.

from plugin.video.retrospect.

Thank you for looking into this. I have installed the ZIP file and tried again. The debug logs for retrospect are here: https://privatebin.net/?7d1b8d2265fcab0e#6TqtQJbsJ5peG7dF8evDxZF9qkzU3r2k75o3PEGLEQrM

After creating the debug log, I tried watching a couple of other programs as well as a trailer for something, but nothing could be played back.
