Release [RELEASE] XOT-Uzg.v3.3.5 (formerly "Uitzendinggemist") script

For those who are interested, I just uploaded XOT-Uzg.v3.3.5. A bit earlier than expected but XBMC 12.1 (and 12.2) introduced some streaming issues with the Dutch NOS channels. The issue is a result of a change in online stream handling within XBMC. I hoped for a fix in XBMC 12.2 but that release did not resolve the problem. Not XOT-Uzg.v3 has the option of downloading the stream and then play it locally. This can be enabled via the add-on settings.

Here is the complete overview:

Installation
Information on how to install this addon/script/plugin can be found on the installation page.

Issues
If you encounter any issues, please let me know using the Issue List on the GoogleCode page of XOT (http://code.google.com/p/xot-uzg/issues/list). Please attach a complete logfile (uzg.log or uzgplugin.log).

RTL & DRM
RTL is using DRM (Digital Rights Management) protection on most popular programs. This is not supported by XBMC. If you try to play such a stream, it will result in a black screen with garbled images and the constant caching of the stream. I cannot fix this from within the addon. There is however a iRTL channel available in XOT-Uzg.v3 that has most of the recent programs without DRM.

Download
The new version can be downloaded from the XOT site: http://www.rieter.net/content/xot/downloads/.

Just finished an update: Uitzendinggemist v2.1.0. It now also supports RTL4, 5 & 7!
The release can be found on my personal website and soon on www.xbmcscripts.com.

I installed your script (read it on tweakers.net) and I think it looks very well.
Everything is fine but theres one bug. When you select a program, no matter it is on 1,2,3, 4,5,7 then the next page (page with date selection) pops up very little in the upper left corner. MAybe it helps to tell you i've got an 16:9 Lcd screen. Maybe it has something to do with absolute coding in your script? If you want i can post a screenshot for you?

Strange. But a screenshot would be nice. I would also like to know which version of XBMC (when it was compiled, you can see that at the information panel of XBMC) you have.

Compile date is april fools day :-)

Ok, I think I know what the problem is. Could you uncomment line 127 in default.py.
So change
into

And then let me know the result (and compile date of XBMC).

Code:

OK, my bad.

It should be:

I will do that, but I really dont know how to code/encode of even open an .py file...
