I'm using it on the fireTV stick. But I mostly have local video channels with a few YouTube channels in there

Scratch that. I WAS using it on the firestick but I see that PTVL got updated and it no longer works. It won't even start up. It says check the log.

In fact, it starts giving errors after kodi starts even before I try to open PTVL, so something's messed up with the background service (I don't even know what the background service is for, as far as I know PTVL doesn't do background updates, or any other background tasks)

I wish I could stop the updates, install a version that works (last couple worked well) and just leave it.

I'm too tired to get a log or try and troubleshoot.

I think Luna needs to do a feature freeze, release a stable and let people decide whether they want the bleeding edge or a working stable version

EDIT: Fine, I changed my mind, here's the log: http://pastebin.com/ciPAmzw2 There seem to be smb related issues, no idea why, my credentials are in the sources with full write access.
I swear this is the last time. I'm tired of being a guinea pig

Why don't you turn off auto-updates in settings if you feel the updates don't work for you?

AFAIK no such option for ptvl (looked through the settings again)

If you mean the kodi setting for auto updating addons, that wouldn't work for ptvl because once you start it, it installs luna's repo and auto updates itself independent of kodi's updating of addons
