This will be good to see soon

I have a pre-release version if anyone is interested in testing. It can be found at https://github.com/jbeluch/xbmc-documentary-heaven


It requires three other addons:

• plugin.video.youtube
• plugin.video.vimeo
• script.module.xbmcswift - Install one of the following plugins which will automatically install xbmcswift: Academic Earth, Khan Academy, Al Jazeera
  

Currently, it has support for youtube, vimeo and google video documentaries. If you encounter a url that is not playable, please let me know here or via the automatic reporting feature in the plugin. The plugin will post a non-playable video url to a google form when an issue is encountered (after it asks for your consent of course )

I'll need to spend a little more time with this before it is released, but figured I'd put up this pre-release for those who can't wait. Have fun!

Might be nice to save those streams in .strm format. As after all they can be handled by XBMC from the raw URL (in most cases). This way you can scrape them to the library although I do not know wether you should list them under TV shows or Movies. However, it might be worth doing this as you could also write up a scraper (should be very easy looking at the source of te website) so that you end up with a nice browseable list. You could also use genres.

"Dependencies not met"...when i've tried to install from zip file on ATV 2...
Any tip?

Working great on my ATV2.
