You have to edit the default.py file in plugin.video.rtmpGUI - use:
BASE = 'http://xbmc.jonakcomputers.com/list.xml'
Location of the plugin directory will depend on your system.

Great, thanks for the quick response - I will prepare an alternate default.py file then incase it goes down so it is easy to swap between the 2 - do I simply need to restart xbmc for the changed file to be picked up, or is exiting and rendering the plugin going to be enough?
This a lot for your help.
Regards

Hmmm .... I'm not interested in itv, sky news or channel 4 hd
I want the "Formula 1 2012 Championship" (cant get sky in our listed building) but that's why live streams is the better solution for this as we can section things off and then you'll only need to access the sections you want to see.
Also, if you just want tv stations why not just use TVCatchup Plugin? It has all uk free view channels (live streaming at great quality and is never/very rarely down) plus It has extra channels that are not available in my area.... Totally legal, has a guide, flawless Xbmc plugin and very well supported.... Then just switch to live streams /rtmp when you want something else...

Could anyone show me how to add one rtmpGUI's channel to Favourites? I am using Apple TV2 + XBMC 11.
thanks

It's uk only.

VPN?
Plus some of these streams are geolocked anyway are they not? I'm sure they are, as some non local channels don't work for me (requiring alternative methods).

tvcatchup+vpn=fail

BlueCop Wrote:I wrote a scanner for tv sector playpaths because all their streams are in HD. I won't detail all the parameters but it was easy to make a table of known station and sort by playpath. The patterns emerged quickly and I just tried to replicate the patterns. I ended up with several hundred playpaths scanned. It found many stations I haven't seen posted anywhere.If you plan on changing the format of the XML file then I ask that you stop using the name rtmpGUI for the name of the plugin.
I was thinking this add-on is probably more suited to xbmchub because of the nature of it. It might be better to move the discussion there.
I have updated the playback code. some stations required subscribe and playlist options for librtmp to play. It also takes the advanced parameters into account and passes them to librtmp.
Live Streams already exists and all these streams could be easily converted to that format.
I can write something to parse the rtmpgui list and convert to livestreams format if someone wants.
I wrote this for browsing and testing the streams quickly. Live Streams is better for this type of thing.

I didn't name the thing. I posted the code in a request for a plugin thread.
but why do you ask that it be renamed?
This should all really be over at xbmchub. this breaks forum fules.
