RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - sthomas13 - 2013-08-14

anyone have this working for AT&T Uverse? I had it working at one point, but had to reload XBMC on my machine & have not been able to get it to work right since... I can get in to where I can view the content, but nothing but script errors when I try to watch something....

@sthomas13 -- post log file.

Ok, clearly I'm an idiot. I can't even figure out the first step here.
Trying to download the bluecop repo, which I assume is here
I install from zip file.
Then I can't find the add on. I see the "ESPN" add on, but that's it when I search. I can find hulu for some reason.
Running frodo on a raspberry pi, if that makes a difference..

@nola mike -- i don't understand, "I can't find the add on. I see the "ESPN" add on"....Huh


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - nola mike - 2013-08-29

The "official" espn addon, which only has highlights--not the espn3/watchespn add on. Anyway, the problem was apparently that the repositories don't always populate correctly. It was necessary to go to the repository, click the context menu, "update", then "force refresh". I was then able to see the add ons in the repository; simply uninstalling/reinstalling the repo doesn't do it. Now of course, I'm getting a script error. I'm on fios. Is it necessary to complete all the steps with a new default.py, userdata.xml, etc? I saw reference to the new default.py (that didn't work).

Hmm, trying to go the watchespn website gives me a "We're sorry, but we're having a problem verifying your MVPD account." error. It doesn't give me a chance to log in. Google doesn't seem to know what this is about. Presumably that's at least part of the problem. I'll post back when I get this sorted out...


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - locomot1f - 2013-08-29

@nola mike -- that could be part of the problem.

with this addon, in its current state, you will only be able to watch ESPN3 content.
as far as I know, you will need to complete the steps for userdata.xml file, and download the default.py that I posted a few pages back now.

thanks for posting that, I've been struggling to get the app working again since I had to rebuild my XBMC machine a while back, but got the new files copied over a few minutes ago & it works great now!


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - locomot1f - 2013-08-30

glad to hear it.

trying to get in touch with ksosez to see if we can get the default.py replaced... but i'm not sure anyone is around anymore. :-(

If someone can figure that out -- maybe wireshark -- then I can figure out how to redirect the URL.
unfortunately, i do not have access to these, so I can not troubleshoot.

locomot1f, how did you figure out the auth URL for ESPN3? I do have access to ESPN1,2,U and can get pcaps; I'm just not sure what to look for.
Thanks.


Re: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - bradwatson - 2013-08-30

I tried to capture the auth URL using wireshark but couldn't find it looking for what locamot1f suggested. Haven't had a ton of time to research.


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - thrillerbee - 2013-08-30

I cleaned up the regex so I can actually login with a Verizon account (on a different ISP), but hardsetting networkurl is obviously not working for ESPN1,2,U, etc. I'm just starting to dive in so I'm hopeful I can find the URLs somewhere... I'll update if I make progress.

Omg thanks to everyone involved with this plugin. I can finally watch my CFL games in HD inside xbmc. Can't thank you guys enough


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - xbmcjim - 2013-09-01

Loco, not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I found the following re-directions on ESPN-U for comcast:

http://espn.go.com/watchespn/adobepass/login?mvpd=Comcast_SSO

https://sp.auth.adobe.com/adobe-services/authenticate?mso_id=Comcast_SSO&redirect_url=http%3A%2F%2Fespn.go.com%2Fwatchespn%2Fadobepass%2Flogin%3Fmvpd%3DComcast_SSO&domain_name=espn.go.com&requestor_id=ESPN


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - Gatorfreak - 2013-09-04

I have Cox, a login, and can use WatchESPN on iPad. Will this addon make it possible for me to watch all that live content in XBMC? Mostly concerned with the main ESPN channel.


RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - locomot1f - 2013-09-05

@ xbmcjim -- unfortunately, no...

i'm at my wits end. it's officially beyond my scope.

I was able to get access to a Comcast login. but I still can't figure out the proper URL.
i was able to pull together this URL -- http://espn.go.com/watchespn/partner/xfinity/config
which, you can see under the
Code:
<network></network>
section, shows what SHOULD be the URL's.
at least it has the one for ESPN3 content -- https://espn-ws.bamnetworks.com/pubajaxws/bamrest/MediaService2_0/op-findUserVerifiedEvent/v-2.1?
...this is what I'm currently using to get the app to work in its present state.

the other URL -- http://broadband.espn.go.com/espn3/auth/espnnetworks/findUserVerifiedEvent
doesn't go anywhere...!!!

and when I try to use the https:// address with the default.py, it doesn't get all the necessary information mainly the SMIL, so, it doesn't play the video!!!

those URL that you gave are just to login... it's a separate matter to play the video. i found the error in the code that MIGHT be keeping you for logging in. you can try this default.py -- but you still will only be able to play ESPN3 content.

glad to see others are still trying to make this work.
