All of a sudden the TWiT plugin stopped working. I get errors on XBMC on both my Linux based HTPC, and my Jailbroken AppleTV2.

Just tested it, and it works for me on Windows.

It started failing today on me as well. But it fails at the point where it tries to get a listing of the episodes of any of the shows.

edit: It started working again, so it could be my install.

None of the tech guy podcasts videos are showing.

Is this a known bug?

Thanks for the heads-up! A fix is on the way.

I have noticed since Sunday 2/17/2012, TWIT Live is no longer working, at least for me. Is anyone else seeing this? It appears all other TWIT programs are working but LIVE.

With the last add-on update, I moved the stream selection for "TWiT Live" to the add-on settings. There are several to choose from, all seem to work (some better than others).

If you still have trouble, post a link to your xbmc.log.

the problem with this is i switch between ustream and justin depending on streaming issues. before i could just press left then select another option.

with the new update this is not possible.

at this moment not using the plugin but chrome as easier!

I admittedly don't watch the live stream very often but can't recall ever having much trouble with any of them. I think* most, myself included Smile, would rather set a setting than have to select a stream every time. Changing settings really isn't that hard, from anywhere in the add-on you can open the context menu and select "add-on settings".

Thanks to JohnnyBluRay for pointing out a bug with the Eden version of the add-on. I'll be pushing an update soon.
