Do you plan to submit this to the official repo?

Cheers,

Yeah, I was thinking about submitting it after a few days of testing.

I have the <requires> in the addon.xml. I see now that it only gets installed when installing from the repo. Smile Or have I screwed up something?

It should also get installed if installing from zip.

Always read the XBMC online-manual, FAQ and search the forum before posting.
Do not e-mail XBMC-Team members directly asking for support. Read/follow the forum rules.
For troubleshooting and bug reporting please make sure you read this first.

Yea, your <requires> is perfect, I still have the old habit of extracting things and cutting/pasting rather than use the install via .zip option. When I installed via .zip everything work correctly...

Thanks for the offer. I just tried it again and it worked. Must have been a temporary blip at the hosting service.

Any chance this plugin could be made to work with the FoodNetwork as well?

Possible , the last time I checked the food network didn't have much content up on the web, just some clips. That may have changed it's been a while since I've looked.

Thank you for providing this! My wife and I have been using it regularly since we discovered it a month ago.

One problem: we can't pause anything, then resume. If we try it'll play for a few seconds (cached?) and then freeze/timeout. We have little kids so we get interrupted A LOT and we've learned to workaround the problem -- if you stop the playback, then select the show again, it'll prompt you to resume at the previous spot.

Is this fixable, though, so that you can use Pause?

Hi, glad you find the add-on useful Smile

To my knowledge there isn't anything I can do. If anyone has any insight or suggestions please reply.

@phileas50, I had a report of the Food Network add-on geo blocking and the source is the same so maybe US only. If the videos wont play in a web browser they are geo blocking.
