[RELEASE] SportsDevil - Watch Live Sports and Highlights

SportsDevil is a video addon for live sports and highlights, blogs and TV. It's based on VideoDevil, so big thanks to the developers. SportsDevil scrapes and resolves embedded streams from websites so that they can be played with xbmc. It dynamically parses cfg files that contain regular expressions used for scraping.
Please try it out and give me some feedback.

Current Version: 1.8.5.5

this is great! thanks! It works fine for me.

This works on my mac, but not the apple tv2. Please help.

Thanks, really handy. Is there any documentation available on how we can make our own Config files?

Love it, this is excellent on the PC. Is there any way of making an xbox friendly one?

Also, I still can't work out how to integrate the sopfilter into MPC-HC. Anyone got this working on the 64bit version?

Great work, love the fact that I can now see highlights from XBMC.

My addon is based on VideoDevil/VideoMonkey, so the basic syntax is the same. There is only an example to learn some of the commands. You can find it here.

I only added three commands:

• @IMPORT=inserthere.txt@
  includes the whole content of inserthere.txt at this place
• @LANGUAGE@
  is replaced by the language code (en/de)
• (For search only) once=http://www.google.de/.*
  show search only on urls that match this regex
  (myconfig.cfg is also an url)

Awesome work can't wait for a ATV2 release.

Wonder if in the future there will be anyway to add UFC Facebook Prelim streams. Since it certainly looks like these streams are here for good now. 5 Facebook streams this upcoming weekend. Although these should be available on myp2p. This is a very exciting release

Thank you very much and great work
Please keep us updated on any progress with ATV2
