Squidiums - sent you a PM. Please reply re: my offer to help out with this add-on. Thanks!

Thanks! I noticed a key error on line 137 when trying to list Arthur episodes:

Code:

10:26:59 T:5484   ERROR: Error Type: <type 'exceptions.KeyError'>

10:26:59 T:5484   ERROR: Error Contents: (u'\u2019',)

If you replace this line:

Code:

'title': urllib.quote(ep['title'])

with this:

Code:

'title': urllib.quote(ep['title'].encode('utf-8','ignore'))

It will fix the issue

Yep - I also had noticed and corrected that issue. There are a couple more bugs that I have fixed and some enhancements I'd like to add. I'm using this as my XBMC/Python self-tutorial since the 1.0.1 version of the add-on was a nice, working base to start from.

Still waiting to hear if I can contribute my additions to the existing work...

I would say post your changed. I just looked at the ops profile, Last Visit: 2011-11-26 01:34.
And being that he hosted his project on google code, that makes it open source. So as long as you post the source with your changes I do not think there is an issue
Thanks for contributing and good luck with python!

Is it possible to take the basic foundation of this coding of the PBS Kids add on and apply it to Disney Jr, as well (http://disney.go.com/disneyjunior/videos...l-episodes)?

mtubesing · 2012-05-07 21:23

No, those two sites have completely different designs and methods of cataloging/presenting video content. That would be a completely separate effort. Sorry.

Sorry I didn't get a chance to see this thread sooner. I had thought I was subscribed for updates, but apparently I was not. I'm more than happy to take contributions and have spoken to mtubesing about his interest in contributing. I took this as an opportunity to move the project over to Github so contributing will be much easier with pull requests, etc.

So the plugin is now hosted at: https://github.com/conorbranagan/xbmc-plugins/

Feel free to fork and pull request away!

Thanks from a new ATV/XBMC use.

Are there any plugins for Sprout?

Hi all. I'm new to xmbc and can't get this addon to work. I am getting the error "script failed: addon.py".

My logfile is below. The main error from the log seems to be a problem with JSON. Not sure what this might be:

ERROR: Error Contents: No JSON object could be decoded

That's where it get's out of my depth.

Any ideas? I'm on latest xmbc and plugin (installed today), OS X 10.5.8

Full log below:

Hey scstraus,

It looks like the API calls we're using may have changed on PBS's end so I'll have to update them to get things working again.

I'll take a look at the plugin tonight and update once I know more.
