I still enjoy Kodi and
+LibreELEC as my multimedia center
+at home. Sadly two of the services I really would like to use from
+within Kodi are not easily available. The most wanted add-on would be
+one making The Internet Archive
+available, and it has
+not been
+working for many years. The second most wanted add-on is one
+using the Invidious privacy enhanced
+Youtube frontent. A plugin for this has been partly working, but
+not been kept up to date in the Kodi add-on repository, and its
+upstream seem to have given it up in april this year, when the git
+repository was closed. A few days ago I got tired of this sad state
+of affairs and decided to have a improve the Invidious add-on. As
+Google has
+already attacked the Invidious concept, so it need all the support
+if can get. My small contribution here is to improve the service
+status on Kodi.
+
+
I added support to the Invidious add-on for automatically picking a
+working Invidious instance, instead of requiring the user to specify
+the URL to a specific instance after installation. I also had a look
+at the set of patches floating around in the various forks on github,
+and decided to clean up at least some of the features I liked and
+integrate them into my new release branch. Now the plugin can handle
+channel and short video items in search results. Earlier it could
+only handle single video instances in the search response. I also
+brushed up the set of metadata displayed a bit, but hope I can figure
+out how to get more relevant metadata displayed.
+
+
Because I only use Kodi 20 myself, I only test on version 20 and am
+only motived to ensure version 20 is working. Because of API changes
+between version 19 and 20, I suspect it will fail with earlier Kodi
+versions.
+
+
I already
+asked to have
+the add-on added to the official Kodi 20 repository, and is
+waiting to heard back from the repo maintainers.

My movie playing setup involve Kodi,
+OpenELEC (probably soon to be
+replaced with LibreELEC) and an
+Infocus IN76 video projector. My projector can be controlled via both
+a infrared remote controller, and a RS-232 serial line. The vendor of
+my projector, InFocus, had been
+sensible enough to document the serial protocol in its user manual, so
+it is easily available, and I used it some years ago to write
+a
+small script to control the projector. For a while now, I longed
+for a setup where the projector was controlled by Kodi, for example in
+such a way that when the screen saver went on, the projector was
+turned off, and when the screen saver exited, the projector was turned
+on again.
+
+
A few days ago, with very good help from parts of my family, I
+managed to find a Kodi Add-on for controlling a Epson projector, and
+got in touch with its author to see if we could join forces and make a
+Add-on with support for several projectors. To my pleasure, he was
+positive to the idea, and we set out to add InFocus support to his
+add-on, and make the add-on suitable for the official Kodi add-on
+repository.
+
+
The Add-on is now working (for me, at least), with a few minor
+adjustments. The most important change I do relative to the master
+branch in the github repository is embedding the
+pyserial module in
+the add-on. The long term solution is to make a "script" type
+pyserial module for Kodi, that can be pulled in as a dependency in
+Kodi. But until that in place, I embed it.
+
+
The add-on can be configured to turn on the projector when Kodi
+starts, off when Kodi stops as well as turn the projector off when the
+screensaver start and on when the screesaver stops. It can also be
+told to set the projector source when turning on the projector.
+
+
If this sound interesting to you, check out
+the
+project github repository. Perhaps you can send patches to
+support your projector too? As soon as we find time to wrap up the
+latest changes, it should be available for easy installation using any
+Kodi instance.
+
+
For future improvements, I would like to add projector model
+detection and the ability to adjust the brightness level of the
+projector from within Kodi. We also need to figure out how to handle
+the cooling period of the projector. My projector refuses to turn on
+for 60 seconds after it was turned off. This is not handled well by
+the add-on at the moment.
