+---- Thread: [RELEASE] NHL Gamecenter Addon (/showthread.php?tid=118853)
- rcrh - 2012-01-26 05:49
Is there a particular web page being scrapped for this? I'm hoping it's not the "normal" GCL page as I'm trying to find a site that would be better suited to a remote driven experience.
(I realize the question is a bit off of topic).
Thanks in advance.

Thank you so much for making this add-on, I've been wanting this ever since I got into XBMC. I just upgraded to Eden Beta 3 and when I go to live games it only shows one team and vs (ex: TOR vs.) so the other team and date/time are missing. Also would it be possible to have team logos incorporated somehow? Thanks again.
"The Game Will Start Soon" - anthomacp - 2012-02-10 03:06
Hi Folks,
I currently have an NHL Gamecenter account (works fine on PC, iPad etc.) but after I've installed this plugin on my ATV2(Eden Beta 2 XBMC) the LIVE games won't work. They just display "The game will start soon" and the rotating NHL logo above it. I can view condensed/archived etc games, just for some reason no live games even though they work just fine on my other devices... Any thoughts?

Been doing some investigation into how the streams work, it seems that within the playlist for a game (on archive) is lots of small .ts files which play in sequence (about 5 seconds each). I can see my connection monitor spiking a lot as each new file is loaded rather than nice smooth streaming. I wonder if this has anything to do with the sometimes jerky playback.

Not sure if this helps but here's the log file from when I try to open a live stream.

I've tried 5 different games now over the last 2 nights (home and away) with the same result. I also updated to Eden Beta 3, no change at all.

I'm also having this issue as of last night as well.
- Cocktus - 2012-02-11 22:20
Yep, I have the same problem.
- micahg - 2012-02-12 20:22
Also having this problem here. Normally when I played streams the m3u8 was the file being played but now its the individual .ts file that starts it. I have no idea why this just broke but it was working up to the 9th. I wonder if they changed something in the playlist and now XBMC is trying to parse it itself (instead of just passing the whole thing to ffmpeg).
- Carb0 - 2012-02-12 22:44
I don't know if I can fix this. It seems that the structure of the m3u8 file has been changed and XBMC can't play the streams because of that.
I don't have much time to work on the plugin currently. I'll have a closer look at it sometime next week.
- micahg - 2012-02-13 05:43
In the event FFMPEG gets a resync before Eden is released, you could probably just change the m3u8 URLs to start with applehttp:// instead of http:// (its a protocol and a demuxer in the git version). But I dont think that is going to happen.
