Crackler not streaming since early June

Since sometime in early June, and for unknown reasons, Crackler has started to act up on both my main HTPC build and on a second very basic Kodi installation that I keep on a second computer for experimentation. Both are v16.1.

The Crackler menu opens correctly showing available Movies and TV Shows. When attempting to play a movie however, the loading circle gets about 1/4 of the way around before just fading out, and nothing else happens. If I load a TV show, I generally immediately get a Playback Error message.

I tried removing and reinstalling the add-on, and even tried installing the earlier Crackler v1.0.5 version to no avail. The URL for the actual movie or TV file does play correctly from my computer. It looks like one or two other users have reported a similar problem but I have not seen a solution.

If I did this correctly, the logfile should be here: https://paste.ubuntu.com/24836534/

I hope you can help. Thanks.
