eTip: I would say that FOX probably needs an updated librtmp to work correctly. I know there is compiled librtmp.dll for windows and it is easy to update on linux. I am not sure the easiest way for appletv2.

this is very nice!

i see the proxy stuff is commented out at the moment, but i thought i'd let you know it all seems to work from the UK except for CBS which does require a proxy.

etip: have you seen http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=99974

thanks!

@BlueCop: Thanks, I will check into that.

@T0mm0: of course - I have (almost) all of your addons installed! Wink Just have so many new ones to play with, I forget what I have.

I already have a 'gator I am using for my icon.png for "CableGator". No, I won't stop saying CableGator. I am on a campaign here. It's gonna get in your head whether you like it or not. Like a bad song.

Bluecop, love all you add ons. Thanks for finally combining sites and creating a "Hulu" of your own if you will. I have only tried a few streams, one from Fox and a few from NBC. I tried a few different quality settings and it does not appear to adhere to the options in settings. I have a lite internet connection and bit rate control (low) is essential. Can anyone else confirm weather it is working for them or not?

Side note: I will be trying this out on xbmc4xbox later today. Off the top of your head, is there anything in the code that you are aware of that will make this incompatible? It would be amazing if you could make this platform neutral considering how many sites you have on your to do list! Thanks again and keep up the amazing work.

I did some Googling but can't figure out what I need to do on ATV2 regarding librtmp. It may be too complicated to bother with but any pointers or suggestions are welcome.

I just committed an update that added The CW, FX, TNT, and TBS.

t0mm0: proxy stuff will be added back soon. I forgot I commented it out.

mrdally204: yea it currently doesn't work ethier. sorry... it will have a universal bit rate limit soon.

eTip: I can try to compile it on my mac. give me a little bit.

I am sure it has more problems too. I just committed it even though its rough because I found it useful already.

Thank you very much, BlueCop, for the great addon. ABC, CBS, NBC and FX all work well on my ATV2. I haven't had much luck, though, with the others. Thanks again.
