As suggested, the binary files have been removed and the correct theme file committed.
The setting menu should list any missing programs once the plugin is running.

Hi everyone,
I would like to share a new mythfrontend plugin I've written called MythApps that allows you to view most video on demand services, IPTV and 4k YouTube with a consistent interface, remote support and mythtv theming.
It supports Linux, Android and Windows. If anyone manages to get this compiled and finds this useful, I would like to know how you got on and if there are any major bugs or missing features required?

Thanks for this. Looks like an interesting plugin :)
I've managed to get it to compile but not got it to run properly yet. I'm missing some dependencies that I'm still trying to fix.
A few initial things I noticed :-
There's at least two binary files that shouldn't be in the git repo 'MythApps/mythapps/libmythapps.so' and 'MythApps/theme/themenop'.
You will probably want to add a .gitignore file so git will ignore those files in the future.
The file 'MythApps/mythapps/theme.pro' is a symlink to a non existent file so the compile fails. I've attached the theme.pro file I used to get it to compile.
Anyone trying this may need to install libqt5websockets5 and/or libqt5websockets5-dev since a standard MythTV install doesn't use either of those.
Also requires xdotool and kodi to be installed. That's as far as I got tonight there may be other dependencies I've yet to discover.
