Kodi official repo not being maintained? #2

Open kekukui opened 6 years ago

kekukui commented 6 years ago

Kodi official repo shows version 1.0.2 while TVaddons repo shows 1.2.0

did you forget to submit this to the official repo

It seems that the now official repo submitted this month, is developed by @Lunatixz, and seems to be based on a previous and different fork than my project or made from scratch... So they are now completely different addons.

I think my addon is still useful because the other one is using exclusively HLS instead of RTMP, and this is not be compatible with some hardware (RPi and so on) or Kodi distributions...

Hello, my plug-in isn't a fork... I wrote it from scratch a few weeks ago and was unaware there was another earthcam plug-in using the same script ID... I apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

It's important to submit when possible any legitimate plug-ins to Kodi's repository for this very reason. It's almost impossible to keep track of individual plug-in development within the community...

Again sorry for the inconvenience...

Hi Lunatixz, please, be welcome! I haven't send my forks 'cause I cannot guarantee that I'll have spare time to maintain them... You've done a very good job and now the code is clean. If I have any additions in the future, I'd probably push req your repo. Greetings!

PS: btw: your repo isn't reachable now at github.
