Gets all the catchup plus the best of again.
Added the live streams of Itv 1 - 4.
Fixed streams.
If you get a cannot watch current show it`s down to licensing issues with Itv and the media company who holds the rights for that program. Wait for the next one or browse another live channel.
Cheers.

Hi, I am having a bit of a problem with the ITV catchup plugin. I have downloaded the latest plugin from your link and I'm using the latest t3ch release, Beta 2, but whenever I try and play anything it comes up with an error message saying "Playlist playback aborted. Too many consecutive failed items." Is there something I have done wrong?

Hi, I have the same setup as stated, and mine works....
sometimes you do get the error you have stated, but if I go out of the folder
and back in again it solves the problem.
I also think that if the actual itv catchup website is very busy it can give you the same error. Sometime when I choose a program there are no episodes at all displayed, then if I go out of the folder and back in again they appear.
I dont think this is a problem with the plugin itself, I think it is to do with traffic on the actual website. Just my opinion, hope it helps

Hi mine doesnt work :-(
I can browse shows fine and play the first few seconds (or evn up to a minute) then it just stops playing and buffers endlessly.
Sometimes pressing A (pause) after several seconds causes it to continue for a while, but sometimes not

Double checked, no adverse firewall rules (my BBC iPlayer plugin doesnt have this problem BTW).

I am using XBMC Atlantis Beta 2 on a Mac running Mac OS X 10.5.5 and while the live channels work fine in this plugin, none of the catchup streams work. I get the same errors reported by other users in this thread.
Also I can report the BBC iPlayer plugin does work fine for me as well.
On a different topic, I am finding that on ITV2 when there is fast movement (e.g. when the camera pans left or right) that the image shows something similar to very bad interlacing.
Note: I have an 8Mbps link so I do not think this is network speed related.

No - regardless of DRM most service provs can be bypassed in some way.
Don`t want to be sued.

if you are not based in the uk you will need to run the plugin with a u.k proxy.
Get one and add it to the xbmc settings network proxy.
