Hello, I hope you're all well... Until yesterday, my trailers in the pre-show were working normally... I have it configured to show trailers for movies I don't own, with the intention of discovering new things. But today it stopped working; it only pulls trailers for movies I have in the database, and if I disable the Kodi database option, it doesn't play any trailers at all, it just stays stuck on a black screen.

Hey everyone, I wanted to share an updated introduction to something I’ve been building called PosterFlow. PosterFlow started as a personal home theater project.

Mutter, mutter... "18.8 will be the last", they said... "all efforts will go into 19.x now", they said... famous last words...
Okay, one more roll of the "Leia" die, although this one is really driven by circumstances beyond our control. Technical changes by Cloudflare caused significant issues with HTTP access to any site using them - metadata sources, for example - and we need to put in a quick workaround before everyone gets too upset; while 19.x "Matrix" is close, it's not close enough to leave these issues unaddressed. So, as we're building that new code, we thought that we might as well fix a couple of other regressions while we're here.
With no further fanfare, then, here's what you've got in this release:
The full changelog can be found in our GitHub milestone or you can read the merged PRs here. If you want to read back on the full history of v18 itself, or of previous versions, you can find the corresponding articles in the relevant blog posts.
Application deployment on different platforms - especially curated "app stores" - varies due to circumstances outside of our control. It may thus take a few more days to appear everywhere, so just hang on until it gets to you.
