[Release] Australian Tv Channel Additional Plugins - bog_gob - 2012-03-16 22:53

Here are some additional channels not covered by the excellent repository xbmc-catchuptv-au.

bog_gob,

do you know if any of these Australian TV plugins work outside Australia? I am from Hong Kong.

RE: [Release] Australian Tv Channel Additional Plugins - bog_gob - 2012-03-17 08:45

Not that I'm aware of, possibly a web proxy/redirect?

RE: [Release] Australian Tv Channel Additional Plugins - bossanova808 - 2012-03-17 10:19

Have you thought about maybe contributing these back tot he repo itself so they're all in one place? Most of the ones in the repo itself are currently broken ...

RE: [Release] Australian Tv Channel Additional Plugins - bog_gob - 2012-03-17 22:34

I'm not sure how Smile, I'd do so if the maintainers of the Catch Up Tv site were interested. I'd guess I'd have to contact the maintainers and ask if they'd like to include my material.

Yeah basically they can make you a contributor to the project and then you can push your changes to google code and thus to the repo/addon users

RE: [Release] Australian Tv Channel Additional Plugins - TheFonz - 2012-03-19 01:38

Is there any chance of adding the Channel 9 Fix Play content?

bog_gob,

First of all thank you for giving these scripts/plugins some loving. I know the missus has certainly missed the SBS plugin, and I'm sure she will appreciate the others that you have included. Unfortunately the SBS plugin still has one or two little gottcha's.

The first time that I try the plugin I get a warning that something is wrong and the script crashes. Seems to work fine the next time I try the plugin. Anyway here is the appropriate part of my debug log.

Yes, I know it's only a fragment (PM me an e-mail address to send the full debug log if required), but I think what I have sent is pretty clear. While it still works, also take note of the "DeprecationWarning:" on the first line, as the dev's have said they are not going to support this going forward from Eden.

Thanks again mate

bog_gob,

Sorry, also just noticed that your link in your original message to the Ten plugin points to the Age download. You might want to edit the link to point to the correct file.

Channel 9 uses silverlight for steaming its media which makes it impossible to run in linux (the environment I use). I hear it's possible to get silverlight plugins working on windows (by redirecting to a browser) but I haven't taken the time to investigate. Maybe someone else can help with this?

Thanks for the feedback Smile. I've updated the link. I've has a look at the log, it seems as though you've got problems with a http request. It could be due to an early timeout. I'm testing on Dharma which uses python 2.4, Eden uses python 2.7 which allows you to specify a timeout. Could you change the following line:

File "J:\Users\John\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.sbs2\resources\scraper.py​​", line 8, in geturl
return urllib2.urlopen(urllib2.Request(url, headers = {"Accept-Encoding":"gzip"})).read().decode('iso-8859-1', 'ignore').encode('ascii', 'ignore')

To:
return urllib2.urlopen(urllib2.Request(url), timeout = 60).read().decode('iso-8859-1', 'ignore').encode('ascii', 'ignore')

Remember in python the indentation is important, there should be a single tab leading the line.
