Repo and some of it's addons are not kodi v.19 compatible.
*(kodi 19 and up requires addons written to Python3 format specs)
Here is addon info for thecrew video addon (from thecrew repo)
<addon id="plugin.video.thecrew" version="1.1.4" name="THE CREW" provider-name="The Crew"> <requires>
<!--<import addon="xbmc.python" version="2.25.0" />-->
<import addon="script.module.thecrew" />
<import addon="script.thecrew.artwork" />
<import addon="script.thecrew.metadata" />
<import addon="script.module.requests" />
<import addon="script.module.resolveurl" />
<import addon="script.module.simplejson" />
<import addon="script.module.requests" />
<import addon="script.module.beautifulsoup4" />
<import addon="script.module.six" />
<import addon="script.module.kodi-six" />
<import addon="plugin.video.youtube" optional="true" />

*addon requires Python 2.25 interpreter (KODI v19 Matrix only supplies Python 3.0)
Here is thecrew Repository access/installing requirements;
<addon id="repository.thecrew" name="THE CREW REPO" provider-name="The Crew" version="0.3.4"> <extension point="xbmc.addon.repository" name="The Crew" >

*Repository can be installed with KODI v.16.0.0 to KODI v.18.9.9 (but won't install on v.19.x)

It was a pain in the ass, I deleted 19.1 and went back 18.9.
Thanks

If using an Android platform, you have to turn off "Auto-Updates" in your Google Play settings, otherwise Google will update Kodi, even if you Sideloaded the app from another source.
How to disable auto-update apps in Google Play
1. Open the Google Play Store app and tap on the 3-bar menu icon on the top left. Then scroll down and choose Settings.
2. In the Play Store settings, tap Auto-update apps.
3. You'll see three options (which can be changed at any time): Do not auto-update apps, Auto-update apps over any network (using your data) and Auto-update apps over Wi-Fi only.
4. Choose Don't auto-update apps. / Click Done.
*Note that this means you will always need to manually update all apps in the future.
