there is no quick fix because this is not a stable release. i only sometimes provide 'quick fixes' for actual stable releases. the tv meta is still in development, and i'm a bit starved for time atm

if you want to arm yourself with some python and start tackling some of the many areas of the plugin that could do with some work, be my guest Wink

thats cool, does the stable releases have westcoast's merge or are they still without metadata and imdb scrape?

its only after the recent push that tv shows got killed, before then the git version worked like a charm for tvshows ?!!!

Patch for Alphabetical Sorting of Favourites - wesada - 2011-04-03 01:18

Hello all:

I'd like to submit my patch to 1.0.6's Favourites sorting. I've applied a sort criteria to ensure items starting with The,A, or An aren't sorted on those values. So "The Lone Gunmen" shows up with the L's and "The Big Bang Theory" shows up in the B's.

Code:

--- default.py.orig    2011-04-02 14:00:23.000000000 -0500

+++ default.py    2011-04-02 13:57:55.000000000 -0500

have added wesada's patch and another patch to show number of episodes per tv show when in tv a-z (toggle this via settings).

there are still bugs in the repo and i do not have time currently to debug.

Hey devs, just a heads up...
Rottentomatoes now has an API, not sure what you could do with the info, but seems ripe for scraping, haha.

I may have mentioned this before, but it would be cool (if even possible?) for the downloads in this plugin to spawn off as a separate process, allowing you to use XBMC while the download is happening. Smile

Download a program called JDownloader. Then download the JDownloader addon in the official XBMC Repo. This will allow you to highlight a file, choose download with JDownloader and you can continue browsing the icefilms addon. It also allows you to pull in a lot more content because JDownloader spoofs your ip address, fooling megaupload into not blocking you because you hit your cap for the day.

Hi everyone 1.1.0 will be the last release of icefilms addon. Icefilms addon will then be replaced by Videofalcon, an addon with a framework derived from videodevil for many sites (not just icefilms), but using the same core as icefilms addon.

Because of this we will not be releasing fanart support for icefilms addon, as there is no point working on 1.1.0 to provide this feature when there will be a major re-write done for Videofalcon.
