Unable to display Films entries

[woj76]

Since couple of months (should have reported this earlier), I cannot enter "Filmer" in the plug-in, the plug-in crashes with an error. All other entries work, can be displayed and videos played. I am not entirely sure if the source of the problem is in the ViaPlay API, or in the Kodi libraries (I run Kodi 9.2.7 on RaspberryPI 3), in any case, the error message from the log is this:

I googled all I can and also tried to debug this a bit myself (don't really have an environment to do it properly), but no luck so far.

It works just fine via Kodi 18.9. Well done, @Mariusz89B, you are great :)

Brief check indicates it works for me too, thanks! BTW, it seems Emil has vanished?...

I think he is too busy right now.
