I have been trying to install the latest fork build but the install keeps having errors installing icon.png files. It's almost making Norton go crazy, even though I disabled Norton? I tried to re-download the latest build from the link in the OP but the download fails due to a network error. What am I doing wrong??
I want to test the 3D performance as well as the new version of CinemaVision but this install isn't going well.
To force the installation I had to "ignore" around a hundred failures to install image files. I've even tried different versions of the folk, all with the same results.

OK I did a full uninstall of Kodi and the re-installed the 18.1 MVC fork and things worked ok. Did a full uninstall of that and reinstalled the 19.3.2. Install went properly, no erroors on every image file.
Went to test. Followed the setup instructions in this thread. MVC 3D seems to work fine. No issues with audio passthrough either.
HSBS and HTAB do not work. The screen goes blank as the projector changes over but stays blank. If I window Kodi (\) The screen comes back showing the HSBS or HTAB "normal" image. Stopping the video playback the projector kicks out of 3D mode but the screen goes blank and stays blank.
Trying to test running CinemaVision and CV won't launch from the movie info screen or context menus. For 2D or 3D . That is a whole other kettle of fish.
Any ides why HSBS and HTAB are not working? I'm not sure I have any other files types to test with but my entire CV 3D sequence used HSBS videos, trailers etc. This was all working at one point with Kodi 17 and CV before.

I can report that my issue has been fixed, it was the problem with the projector settings - it was the Auto HV keystone and 4 corner adjustment which should be turned off / disabled to enable 3d.

Tried to do more testing, installation failed again giving the same errors through Norton on every image file that attempted to be installed. Re-downloaded directly from theOp in this thread, still failed. Either something is wrong with this fork like or something keeps tripping Norton, despite turning off Norton as best as I can tell. Went back to 18.1 and will test CV with 3D again and see what happens.
And now back in 18.1 CV just completely fails. I have no clue what it going on anymore. Very frustrating.

I understand it's been the holidays but has everyone who's been working on this new fork gone to Mexico go a month?
Did more testing, Complete uninstall of Kodi 18.1 MVC Fork, rebooted Windows, installed 19.3 MVC fork. Install actually worked fine. Kodi crashed upon starting. Killed my prior testing Kodi userdata directory and restarted Kodi and it worked. Set up everything again, tried testing MVC 3D, no 3D. Checked Windows settings and there's no option for enabling windows 3D mode. Quit everything and rebooted, Windows 3D mode option came back, turned it on, ran Kodi, played MVC 3D and got 3D. Played HSBS and got a black screen that stayed black when stopping video playback and image didn't return till I windowed/full screened Kodi.
This entire process is exhausting as none of it seems to be working. Aside from building a virtual machine with a newer version of Windows 10 to then see if that gets things working.
Reverted back to Kodi 18.1 MVC fork, which used to work prior to the SSD blowing up back in the spring. MVC still crashes at some point during playback. Doesn't matter what the audio stream is (Atmos, dst:X, dtsHD-MA).
Large Audio Sync Error is all I get from a log, though I've not done a full debugging log. Can't seem to find any real info about such an error anywhere. Frustrated. Annoyed. Still searching for answers.
Went back to another Windows 10 machine that seems to play 3D MVC fine. But doesn't work with CinemaVision in 3D. So still stuck wondering where the issue is and CV skipped Leia and jumped to Matrix which then in testing still wasn't working correctly for me. Been working with Kodi for 8 years, specifically for media library with full MVC 3D playback and the movie theater type experience. Both seem to no longer function.

Hello,
I've been able to run Kodi 19.2 with mvc on a old Asus Vivo PC with i3 and Intel HD Graphics 4000, but an issue is still there:
when playing 3D movies as 2D, sooner or later the audio goes out of sync. This happens only with 3D movies played in 2D, 2D movies and 3D movies played in 3D are fine.
I've tried small workarounds like hitting the "go backward" button or adjusting with the audio delay controller, but they are unreliable and this totally ruins the fun.
At the moment my only way to reproduce 3D movies in 2D without this problem is using a different media player, like VLC.
This problem exists for me at least since Kodi 18 mvc release but I've never dug into it so I was thinking it was a specific movie problem.
During these holidays I've spent some time trying to fix it, (updating drivers, OS and changing Kodi-mvc versions too) to no avail.
Have you any idea what's going on and how to solve it? Thanks in advance

The Norton error was noted before. It's trying to install every image file and Norton kicks it back as something fishy and you have to skip. For every image file Kodi tries to install. But that did not occur on my last test.
What did happen was no HSBS 3D, or video of any kind for those files.
My Large Audio Sync issue is with the Kodi 19.1 MVC fork. It happens during playback of any MVC 3D MKV I've been able to test. Kodi just crashes. No idea what audio issue there might be with 19.3 as I've not played around with it long enough due to the other issues I have noted.

Just to reiterate, the HSBS issue is with this 19.3 MVC fork. I've not tested at length the audio issue I've experienced. That occurs in 18.1. I was going to test 19.3 for audio tonight but plans have changed.
