## just as addition,. why not HomerJ, Morie and TakeTv in one Plugin Smile

good question, an answer might be that this add on is my very first add on and I really got struggled with the xbmc API (how the scripts is launched and how parameters are exchanged between the python script and xbmc). I guess the way I have written this add on is not common ^ ^ ...

##Dev -> PyDev -> Huh wrong forum ??

Could be, I am new here. I would be happy if a Mod moves this thread into the right forum.
and by the way a new bugfixed version is now available:

Version v0.22
- Categories containing FSK 18 VODs do not raise Errors anymore
- FSK 18 VODs are now listed from 10pm to 6am (22:00 bis 6 Uhr)

all the best

Hey,

I have some questions regarding your add-on:


Is there an specifc reason you chose GPLv2 and not GPLv3 as your licence?

Have you been thinking about using a version control like svn or git? A webhoster like funpic.de does not seem to be ideal place to host software like this.

Is the add-on listed in any xbmc-repository?

Cheers, StateOfTheArt

Hey StateOfTheArt,

- ehm no I even do not know the difference between both. If you want i can release feature releases under GPLv3.

-yeah i thought about this. Maybe future releases will be hosted on git ...

Is the add-on listed in any xbmc-repository?
-no its not. I do not expect that a wide range of people would be interested in this add on. And i need to say that i am not familiar how to do this.

all the best
