[RELEASE] TVCatchup.com (Video) Plugin - Live Stream UK Freeview Channels
#46
Get the version modified by Omega (Post 20), they changed their site this week which broke the original plugin, Omega got it working again.

And yeah it's just one file in a folder, just don't forget to add your tvcatchup.com username/pass in the file.

think i'll wait because theres little point fixing the plugin anyway if the site keeps changing.

Hi all..

been using xbmc for a while now (although not registered on here). think its an absolutely amazing bit of kit and have lots of respect to the guys that taken the time to code it all up Smile....

and again, the tv-catchup service, awesome ! especially with the convieniance of having it in XBMC (so cheers again tvc-dan/omega/fatman) lol.. tis a shame about all the politics though.

but i was basically wondering if i can have the password to the zip file or is that devs only or something??

cheers all

Yea, sorry about this, They/We are trying to bring an API in to make things better, but as a result is messes the plug-in up for the moment.

Ok I've fixed it temporally. If you go here you can grab a copy of the fixed plug-in : http://forums.tvcatchup.com/showthread.p...#post30422

At TVC we have a fairly open policy regarding working with developers, and we're all keen XBMC users. Several of the guys at TVC have been working on XBMC projects anyway and it would be kind of nice to work together rather than just see people try to rip our site.



Ask us nicely and we would quite probably be happy to work with you, and may even give you access to our api. But if we are forced to, then we shall just kill access.

Hi guys,

I go away for a week and come back and some major stuff has been happening!! I saw that the plugin had been killed last week so was working on one that did the (now/next) schedule etc. from the website but I will pull this new version as I did not know it was as issue.

Like i said in my top post (and it was only my first post on the site). I had only had xbmc for a few days and was unaware of any previous warnings etc. And if I had known asking for you help was I viable option I would have done. I am a complete noob in this area (just quite a coder and a fast learner).

I am happy to work with you and your API to make a proper version. I live in the UK and pay my TV licence so that was why I developed it in the first place. Was not trying to cause any issues.

Let me know if you want to work with me to develop a proper plugin.

I actually read through all the posts on xbmc and on the tvcatchup forums and tbh I have changed my mind a little. I don't normally suffer from bouts of egotism but I wasn't really expecting to be shafted.

I am a little annoyed that even though the amount of work I put into this, that omega was able to claim as his own only after a minor update and then submit it to dj_gerbil at tvc as his own work and for the both of them to start developing from.

I would have submitted mine anyway and if either had bothered to ask me, instead of running away with it, they would have known I had got much further along the line with a second version (with even more effort put in).

so I am releasing my latest version in this post (well on both forums). It will prob be my last attempt at any plugin for xbmc. Feel free to use it or do whatever with.

Like i said, I don't normally get bouts of egotism but I put a lot of work into this and feel like these guys have given me zero credit. I didn't mean to step on any toes when I released the original, I only had the best intentions from the start.

enjoy.

Credit where credit is due, any attempt to help with 3rd party addons for xbmc is a sure fire winner with me and i can probably speak for most of the team to they sure like to see there hard work utilised to.

Kudos for the work fantaman32 hopefully you can help maintain it to a high standard for all us UK peeps Smile

cheers fantaman32. i had wondered where youd dissapeared to, thought you may have shyed away when the shit hit the fan. appears you were away for a week like me. cheers for all the hard work, and thanks for the new version i shall download it now.

PS hope you do continue to make plugins, as you were my knight in shining armr with this one.

fantaman32, just tried your latest version with xbmc babylon 9.04.1 on xbox.

when i get the channel list some of the channels dont get thumbnails. also when i press on any channel i get a script error "python script failed", therfore plugin not working
Reply

after searching around and tring a few versions, i came accros one on the tvc forums that works. still not all channel thumbs appear

also i noticed with all the tvc plugins so far that the xbox cpu is at 85%-100% all the time which when auto temp control is set in system settings causes the fan to spin up to a extreamely loud state ruining the watching of TV. is there not some way to reduce cpu usage as i dont get this problem with other plugins like the bbc iplayer plugin.

and browseing another channel for listings whilst watching a channel sends cpu to 100% and locks the xbox up

I never claimed it was my plug-in, I've only looked over it on behalf of TVCatchup and then hosted it. If you feel you have been shafted by Omega then you'll have to take that up with him, and if you think that I have then that was not my intention. I'm glad to see that you've managed to get you V2 working but I did ask that you PM me with a link first so I could have a look at it before it became commonly distributed. This is only so that TVC have some idea of how many people are using the plug-in.

Hi Guys

Perhaps creating a google code project would a useful step. That would allow invited developers to contribute via svn, code review, document and host downloads.

Cheers

ok fair enough. Maybe I misunderstood a bit and kinda threw my toys out the pram. I am glad Omega updated my plugin whilst I was away (because obviously I was away) but I would have appreciated some courtesy.

I am happy to work together and I think a google code site is a brilliant idea (dink). I just have 2 questions, why the password protected zips for the releases on the tvc forums? and what are TVC's requirements exactly? Is it just so you know how many people are using it? - I can send you download counts so far - 211 (for both versions).
