FWIW you may also need to do this a couple of times and/or exit and restart XBMC a time or two for this to work. That was my experience at least, but ultimately it did work.

Looks like the script has a bug that affects Windows installations; the '\' path separator isn't escaped properly. The problem is that the replace() function is case-sensitive, and the backslash character is encoded as "%5c" (lowercase) when the script expects "%5C" (uppercase). For a quick and dirty fix, find the code below and change all occurrences of "%5C" to lowercase.

C:\Users\{your_name}\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.free.cable\resources\lib\_common.py

Code:

class _Info:
    def __init__( self, *args, **kwargs ):
        print "common.args"
        print kwargs
        self.__dict__.update( kwargs )

exec '''args = _Info(%s)''' % (urllib.unquote_plus(sys.argv[2][1:].replace("&", ", ").replace("'","\'").replace('%5C', '%5C%5C')).replace('%A9',u'\xae').replace('%E9',u'\xe9').replace('%99',u'\u2122')»

The main problem, though, is that the code is parsing the arguments in just about the worst way imaginable. For a better fix rip out that whole section above and replace it with this:

Code:

class _Info:
    def __init__(self, s):
        args = urllib.unquote_plus(s).split('&')
        for x in args:
            (k,v) = x.split('=', 1)
            setattr(self, k, v.strip('"\''))

args = _Info(sys.argv[2][1:])

The original code also tries to replace a few specific characters (such as the trademark TM character) with Unicode equivalents, but the way it's going about it won't work. I didn't bother trying to do that. To do it right I'd need a table to translate about 100 different URL encoded characters to their Unicode equivalents. If it's a problem I'll add it later.

What can I say? The fix works for me, and I copy/pasted from the file to the forum. Python's quite dependent on indentation, so make sure that's all correct and that there isn't a problem of using spaces instead of tabs (or vice-versa). Also look in the log file to see what the specific script error is.
