I will update this post with new versions, to make it easier to find the latest.
Irish TV Player is inspired by VODie. The AerTV part is something that mutated from liamf's AerTV player in VODie. Everything else was created from scratch.
When reporting problems ALWAYS include a debug log (<----- follow the link if you do not know how to do this). Also if you get a problem trying to play a video, check to see if works in a brower (www.rte.ie/playerxl for RTE Player). If it doesn't work there it's not going to work in the plugin.
Can be installed from the official XBMC repository, my repository addon, or by direct download. New updates will always be available from my own repository and by direct download before being available via the official XBMC repository (v.2.0.14).
Repository add-on:
Eden: http://mossy-xbmc-repo.googlecode.com/fi...y.eden.zip
Frodo/Gotham: http://mossy-xbmc-repo.googlecode.com/fi....frodo.zip
The plugin zip can also be directly downloaded from here:

Advantages
[AerTV] Shows Now & Next for each channel
[AerTV] Lists only the channels that can be viewed in the plugin (RTE,TV3, TG4, News Now)
[RTE/TV3] Search option
[RTE/TV3] Download option (see plugin settings)
[RTE] Live TV (backup for AerTV, just in case!)
[TV3] Full menu, Latest, Most Popular, etc.
[TG4] Full menu, Latest, Most Popular, etc.
Live TV from outside Ireland
See wiki.
Known issues
RTE is not currently working (except for live), probably because of changes on RTE's end.
RTE News Now and RTE jr live TV do not work, and are possibly gone for good.
Update: Now RTE 1 and RTE 2 live are not working, and are possibly gone for good.
Android/Raspberry Pi: Some platforms need a more up-to-date version of librtmp than the one that normally gets installed in order to get some parts of the plugin working. This may affect platforms other than Android and Raspberry Pi. See the wiki for links.
TV3: Due to badly formatted HTML in TV3's webpages sometimes the Player cannot "read" the information it needs for a particular episode of a programme. This happens with occassional episodes on the Popular, Latest and Last Chance menus, and results in a warning that appears on the screen to say there is a problem with a particular programme. The relevant episode will NOT then appear in the programme list. If this happens and you want to see that episode, go to the "All Shows A-Z" menu, you should be able to find the episode there and play it.
Live TV on TG4 doesn't work in a browser at the moment so there's no chance of it working in the plugin.

Quote:In Settings > System > Debugging there is a setting Enable debug logging. This lets you toggle between Normal and Debug w/ visuals on the fly.
