Hi,
I would like to watch films on mubi.com in xbmc. Mubi is a web based paid film streaming service (with nice films). You can log in with an facebook account. In mubi you can set up a list of films to watch. My hope is that based on your plugins it is possible to log in to mubi, scrape this list and play the films in xbmc.It would be really nice if you or anyone with the skills and interest could make such a plugin.

http://www.mubi.com
A movie freely accessible:
http://video.mubi.com/theauteurs/Films/a...tarttime=0

I caught this link using NetVideoHunter for firefox.

Thanks!
Oyvind

When I try to use the web viewer the left hand pane which should display the text is almost white with a few dots and dashes which seem to be the tops and bottoms of the letters on the page. I can click on this pane and the dots and dashes change so it obviously is working in some ways. Is this an issue of resolution or skin or something like that? anyone know what I can do to solve it?

Well, depending on the skins font, it may not work so well. Test it with the confluence skin and see if it works fine for you (just to determine if it is actually a skin issue). A screenshot would be helpful as well.

I've been using web viewer on it's own today to read the wiki, and I must say it's really rather good

+1, it's useful for hundreds of purposes. I even find myself using it for song lyrics!

Thanks, ruuk!
