Release Geek & Sundry - Video plugin
#16
Hi! Love this plugin. My wife and I are watching Critical Role, and it seems like when they split the episode into two parts part 2 doesn't show on the list. Is that fixable or am I doing something wrong? Using Kodi 17.3.

Can you give me an example of an episode that is in two parts?

35 is the most recent one we watched that's a two parter. It cuts off abruptly after about two hours and I have to go to YouTube for the rest.

Heya,

Thanks for a great plugin it is just a shame Geek&S are breaking it by not having all their videos hosted on youtube. This will throw a null exception when it cannot parse a video id. Example.

In this case the URL it was parsing was this one.

http://geekandsundry.com/craft-lab-project-smaug/

Which if you look at the page source does not use youtube for playback , rather brightcove.


Quote:<div class="video-inner-wrapper container">


<iframe src='https://players.brightcove.net/4036320279001/S1QZwYDXx_default/index.html?videoId=4142724972001' width="970" height="547" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen></iframe>



<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="related-videos-wrapper">

So you might think about making the re.parse portion of the showvideoURL function a little more flexible. There is apparently a brightcove player/api addon already for kodi somewhere maybe it is worth adding that as a dependency.

Otherwise nice plugin. Hope we can fix it.

Hi, thanks so much for this add-on, I have it installed and working (sorta) in Kodi 17.6.

I say "sorta" because the only videos that play are in the "Newest Videos" category.  When I try to play any video in the "Shows" category, no matter which show, I get the "YouTube: Invalid parameters." error.  I have updated my YouTube add-on, and activated too with my login, and that add-on works fine on its own.  It just won't work with the "Shows" category.  All of the repos I have installed offer me version 5.5.0 of YouTube, which is what I have installed, with no older versions offered to try and downgrade to troubleshoot.  Is there anything else I can try?  

Thanks again for this great add-on, and any feedback you might share with me.

I get the same error as above as of today. Been using this for a long time and never had it before. I'll provide a log when I can if someone doesn't beat me to it.
