FAQ
- Does this work outside of the UK?
- Yes, this is a streaming website that works anywhere
- Why do we recommend you install the repo instead of manual install?
- By installing the repo, any new releases will automatically be picked up and pushed to XBMC and ask you to update the add-on!
- This will cut out the hassle coming to the thread for updates and manually uninstalling/installing the plugin!
- Why choose this over myp2p.eu and other football streaming sites?
- Its all down to preference, although this site is very stable, cheap, and not in high demand as the free websites are, thus better playback
- What is the price of this?
- The plugin is absolutely free (as always!), however, LiveOnlineFooty requires a payment of £6 for 2 months subscription
- Why is the plugin playing streams at 4:3?
- XBMC by default does this, at the moment we cannot force 16:9, streams are in 16:9 so to fix this do the following:
- Settings -> Video -> Display 4:3 videos as Stretch 16:9
Bugs/feature requests
Please use the development thread to report bugs or to request features and to give ideas, located HERE.
When reporting a bug make sure that you turn on debugging in the script and in XBMC and include:
- A debug log
- A description of how to reproduce the bug
- XBMC revision
- Platform (XBOX/Linux/Windows/Mac)
Known Issues
- On XBMC LIVE systems, audio seems to be flawed (although same plugin on same machine and proper install is fine) [RESOLVED]
- On XBOX system, clicking on 'Settings' brings up an error (although works fine on other systems) [RESOLVED]
Special Thanks
To mortstar for adding this plugin to his repo, without his repo it would be a pain for users updating the plugin as new releases come along! cheers mate!

Can you please help me with something myksterx?
- DazNoonan - 2011-04-17 21:14
Just tried this now, signed up for £6. Does anyone find it buffers quite a lot?

Not really, once or twice per game.
- mclog - 2011-04-17 22:51
Can't say I've found that myself. What device you on? ATV2?
Not sure exactly how to do so, but I'm sure there's a way to increase the default buffer size in the addon, that should overcome that if it's a regular problem for you, although it means launching the stream would take longer.
Please report back if you keep on finding this problem.
