Cinetree for Kodi
Introduction
This add-on enables playing films and documentaries from Dutch film platform Cinetree.nl. This an unofficial plugin. It is not created, or endorsed by Cinetree, nor is the developer in any way affiliated with Cinetree. The addon only provides a frontend to Cinetree’s web services. Access is restricted to the Benelux countries.
It is possible to browse through the whole collection of films and documentaries, but an account is required to be able to play any content. With a free account you can only rent films. An account with a monthly subscription also gives free access to an ever-changing selection of films. Check https://cinetree.nl/#hoe-werkt-het for a little more info.
With a subscription account, films available from the monthly selection can be played directly from kodi. Unfortunately, it is not possible to rent a film directly from Kodi, but already rented films can be played as long as the rental period has not expired. After you’ve paid for the film using the official Cinetree Android/Apple app or Cinetree’s website, the film will be available in the menu ‘My Films’
