That's weird.
As far as I can guess the plugin is failing to guess the ISO code for your XBMC language (BTW if anyone knows how to make XMBC just tell me the code I'd be grateful). Then it would send a list of [None] to the subtitles method and that blows up. I'll open an issue for that, but I don't see how it can be a regression?

More intriguingly... what language is your XBMC using (xbmc.getLanguage())?

You should be able to get around it by either disabling subtitles or setting a custom code in the preferences.

xbmc_language = xbmc.getLanguage() returns Dutch
so it fails in the get_language_code part

Thanks!
Amusingly this happens because 'Dutch' isn't a language in http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2/IS..._utf-8.txt Smile

Apparently the full name is 'Dutch; Flemish'. There is an obvious hack that ought to improve things, but (as you know) I started http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=163023 to ask for a better way to look up codes.

Dutch is a language on itself. However you have Flemish which is Dutch variant spoken in Belgium.

This is what XBMC uses

Ah, I should have realised that ';' is a list separator in that file. I can parse it properly now Smile

Ah yes, I was't sure if that was canonical. And you'd need to update the mapping if new translations were added.

I meant to ask for a better mechanism for a while but just didn't get around to it. Good news that it is happening now.

Any chance for also adding browsing by tags besides themes?

Also noticed not all the information is filled in for the videos but could be you can't really get that info all the time.

It's worth reviewing what can be made available, but as you say there are some limitations.
