Awesome! Thanks. 720p looks great
I see that you offer your update to the DramaCrazy addon here too. That fixed it for me. Works great now. You should let AJ know you can take over it's maintenance.
Might as well throw in a request. Can make a addon for azdrama.net?

Thank you for your hard work. I downloaded the zip file a few days earlier and it works fine. However, I tried installing it on another ATV2 and the plugin doesn't show any option for a video add on. It's just a blank icon and blank directory.

I made an update to the add-on today. it seems that I didn't account for the videos that are not hosted on viki but are just translated on viki. it seems that viki.com still has the old series that people use to link from youtube and dailymotion and such but for some reason they're are not accessible through the menu items. You actually have to do a search to see the series. For example if you go under TV shows and filter by country and choose Taiwan it only shows 4 shows but if you search for a particular Taiwanese show like "calling for love" it will show. Well long story short you should now be able to view these videos and their subtitle as well.
though donation is not necessary but just in case you want to:

dknlght - You've asked me to check if Japanese drama series are available on Viki, and unfortunately, they don't exist, which is a bummer because the site streams Korean content really well with subtitle, in 720p to boot!
I just discovered van698.com and it has Japanese drama in addition to other Asian countries' dramas. Any possibility that you can put it on your to-do list? It does use qvod though, so that probably is challenging to resolve. The folks who look after the Chinese repository includes a qvod site that's similar to van698.com but it requires qvod player to be installed on windows/ios/...etc, qvod is unavailable for Apple TV users at this time.
