[RELEASE] PBS (Video) Addon
Nevermind, I got it working!

I don't find the PBS add-on as per your instruction to add. Using stable build, things like Hulu work. Suggestion? Is this a nightly build thing to get it to appear. Thanks. Never have done a nightly build.

BTW. This is on an ATV2, if that makes a difference. Thanks.

If you are using nightlies you need to manually install the plugin.

Have not used nor am using nightly. So, if I am not seeing PBS in the XBMC add-ons, how do I get it and/or install it without nightly. If I have to do a nightly update to get it, where do I find the file?

Click the downloads and select the zip file. Then use install from zip.

@stacked: Any ETA on when we download your plugin directly for eden-pre builds?

Up and running. Thanks. A Cookie Is A Sometime Thing.

Unfortunately, most of the videos dont work for me. I'm in Canada and running 1.0.4 but i dont think it's a geoblocking issue as I can watch the videos on Chrome. Here's my error log.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Can you try the latest nightly and see if that helps?

This addon is going to be broken for a while. The pbs website just went through some major changes and xbmc no longer has access to their unencrypted video urls. I need to get in contact with one of the guys from pbs. I'll keep you guys posted.

keeping my fingers crossed. I love this plugin, I hope PBS opens the URLs. Really sucks if they use encrypted URLs.

Aw, shucks. I just installed this plugin into XBMC on my AppleTV. Was totally excited to get it working... only to see stacked's post from earlier today. I get the same "script failed" error that folks have mentioned previously.

I really hope you're able to get access to the unencrypted video URLs, stacked. And thanks for all of your hard work!

Good news! Big Grin

I was able to join the PBS API program. I just need some time to re-write the addon.

It's great to hear some good news about this!

Stacked, I made an account to post this. Thank you for your work on the plugin! It's really enhanced my life!

Here's hoping for a speedy refactoring. I'm sure you don't need help from random people on the internet, or want to get them up to speed, but if there's anything I can do, I'm happy to help. I'm a developer with some Python experience, and a bunch of experience doing web and distributed-computing-type-stuff in a variety of languages.

I can't wait to see Fabric of the Cosmos!
