When I try to go into anything, eg The X Factor it comes up with:
Error Script Failed: Plugin.Video.ITV_1.0.5

Any ideas?
Or did I not install it correctly?

Hi I'm running the very latest nightly build from xbmc.org on my windows xp pc and the ITV plugin is working great for me

Here is a link to the latest nightlies

http://mirrors.xbmc.org/nightlies/win32/

I installed the addon - plugin.video.itv_1.0.5.zip

Here is a link to the ITV addon

http://code.google.com/p/xbmc-itv-player/downloads/list

I placed the downloaded zip file on the windows xp desktop
Then from the XBMC gui went into System/Addons/Instal from a zip
To install the addon


Then I made two folders one called Subtitles and one called Images at the following location :-

C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Application Data\XBMC\userdata\addon_data\plugin.video.itv

you will now if you are in the right folder if you see an existing file called settings.xml.

Do the following if you can't see the above mentioned Application Data folder
remember this is for windows XP

Click Start
Click my computer
Click tools at top of screen
Click Folder options
Click the tab "view"
Click show hidden files and folders
Click apply
Click ok

Then you must replace two files
One is called "addon.xml" and the other is called "default.py"
You can find these files at the following link :-

http://code.google.com/p/xbmc-itv-player/downloads/list

The folder that you put the two new files is :-

C:\Documents and Settings\HP_Administrator\Application Data\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.itv_1.0.5

this is NOT the same location where you made your two folders ie "Subtitles & Images"

Just confirm yes to overwrite each file in turn

Then hopefully your good to go


All credit goes to member "dlake02" which I found the info by reading the forums

I hope it helps someoneSmile

Instead of showing hidden folders could you not just enter %appdata% into the address bar?

Hi all, any luck getting his running on Eden beta? What steps do I need to follow or what fiddling do I need to do? I installed from zip file but get script errors - my log file is attached to an issue created where the repo is sitting... Any help much appreciated.

Had same problem, but got to work on a linux box by following Hasselhof's instructions, more or less. It just required creating three folders:

Under linux the filepath is ~/.xbmc/userdata/addon_data
Create a new folder here called plugin.video.itv and then within that folder create two subfolders called Images and Subtitles
Everything then worked fine.
