Hello, I`m writing new add-on for XBMC and it working perfect.

I create repository on my server and create zip file with this repo information. Everything looks good, but when i try to install my add-on from zip file in XBMC it tells me, that add-on does not have correct structure. I spent hole evening trying to find the problem and still finding.

May be somebody take a look on my add-on zip file and find whats wrong with it?

I'd like to know this too. Even using Keka, which removes any mac-specific files (.ds_store, etc) in zips. I've tried using the command line, several zip apps, but XBMC seems to always hate Mac created add-on zips.

You can make easy links to the XBMC wiki using double brackets around words: [[debug log]] = debug log, [[Add-on:YouTube]] = Add-on:YouTube, [[Adding videos to the library]] = Adding videos to the library, [[userdata]] = userdata, etc
