Solved Video Add-on HTTP Auth Digest problem
#1
Video 
Hello,

I've written a very simple video addon with the help of http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Aud...C_World.21

This works fine. But I run into an error, when the destination file is protected by http auth digest.

Is there way to play those files?

I've already tried to add username and password to the url without success:

Code:
url = 'https://foo:[email protected]/auth/digest/some_video.mkv'

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Update:

Appending the following to url variable did the trick:

Code:
|auth=digest

See: http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HTTP

One question left:I am wondering why I have to explicit set the authentication method via url. I tought, username and password should be enough.
