It seems people were discussing Vidon GPL violations in the Kodi forum.

In this topic someone built a Kodi Jarvis version of vidon and the dropbox
link still works.
Libbdjvm.so is 1 year younger compared to the one in the apk supplied by
vidon website

But still, same size and same error as before.
