to be fully clear, the legal ones are only those that are in the official kodi repo, right?


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - midraal - 2016-03-17

i've got a player ready for the WABC addon, but it needs some testing

it can be found at https://gist.github.com/midraal/4578ea122df1f4836eec

That sounds like a good definition to start off with. If other cases come up for legitimate sources that aren't in the repo then we can see later.

The same definition should apply as to any other add-on source - if it provides shows, channels or movies for free that you would normally have to pay for, then it's not allowed.

1.0.9 released with one important bugfix and a few minor improvements.

Thanks! I pushed it to meta-official-players with a few changes to allow matching against Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Code:
{
    "name": "WABC Programs",
    "plugin": "plugin.video.wabc",
    "tvshows": [
        [
            {
                "link": "plugin://plugin.video.wabc",
                "steps": [
                    "(?:{clearname}|{clearname|replace(',’)})",
                    "{season}x{episode}"
                ]
            }
        ]
    ]
}



RE: [Release] Meta video addon - midraal - 2016-03-17

the new replace and whitespace options look awesome. should make developing new players much easier


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - CrazyGamerTV - 2016-03-17

If there are any legal add-ons that someone wants a player for let me know. I am not the best at this yet but I am willing to help out. Smile

@CrazyGamerTV
Want to try WCBC Programs? should be easy and I can add it myself so it's just if you want to practice Wink

I've added one for WNBC Programs.
Code:
{
    "name": "WNBC Programs",
    "plugin": "plugin.video.wnbc",
    "tvshows": [
        [
            {
                "link": "plugin://plugin.video.wnbc",
                "steps": [
                    "{clearname}.*",
                    "(?:full +episode|season {season}$$).*",
                    "{season}x{episode}"
                ]
            }
        ]
    ]
}
The seconds step means:
full +episode = "full episode" with as many white-spaces between the two words
Or (because (?:x|y) means x or y)
season {season}$$ = "season" followed by the season number (as a full word only thanks to the $$)
.* = and then whatever (to also catch "full episodes" or "season 1 - is amazing")

The third step is matching by info-labels (can be seen in confluence in media info view)

I can't seem to find a WCBC add-on, Do you mean WCBS?

Well, I made a player for Discovery Channels Add-on it doesn't have very many episodes right now..

It works but I am not sure if that is really the best way to code it.. Feel free to give some feedback on a better way to do it. Thanks !

p.s. I left out some of the channels because they didn't have any episodes just short clips of shows.


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - metate - 2016-03-19

The official meta players list was extended to include ABC Family, Crackler, Discovery, SyFy and Reddit TV . Many thanks to @CrazyGamerTV for his contributions! I also recently added iPlayer WWW (not tested) and WCBS.


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - CrazyGamerTV - 2016-03-19

If you can think of anymore players feel free to let me know.

I used ".*{tilte}.*" for Crackler TV because some shows like The Three Stooges do not have seasons, they only have episode numbers that do not match the episode numbers in meta.


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - dkplayaclub - 2016-03-21

If we could get the ability to set auto view for movies, shows, seasons and episodes it would be a huge plus. Loving the addon though. Been waiting a long time for something like this.

EDIT - Also, the ability to support Trakt and IMDB lists would also be awesome. This could be the gordian knot solution for a lot of people. Smile


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - loki131 - 2016-03-22

@dkplayaclub

I'm not the dev but have spent a LOT of time in this thread, Trakt support is being worked on in fact no other features will be coming until it is done. If you want to suggest a new feature like auto view you need to post it on github (https://github.com/metate/meta4kodi/issues) or it will most likely be forgotten! Also just so you know auto view has already been requested Wink


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - danz0l - 2016-03-22

Anyone any meta players for ITV player and YouTube ??


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - dkplayaclub - 2016-03-22

Nice to now it's being worked on. This is becoming one of my new top addons.

I'd like to request providers for the network addons (outside of USTV VoD). HGTV, HGTV Canada, DiY, Bravo, Cooking Channel, Travel Channel etc. It would be nice as they often (somehow) have different content than USTV VoD and the home and garden/lifestyle programing can be some of the hardest to find.


RE: [Release] Meta video addon - midraal - 2016-03-24

i'm currently working on adding some basic trakt integration to meta, but it could use some testing

if you are interested see https://github.com/midraal/meta4kodi/tree/trakt

to install it download the zip, and overwrite plugin.video.meta in your kodi addon folder with the one in the zip

currently done:
- collections
- playlists
- next episodes
- calendar (it looks atrocious, but it's more to see how to do it)
- add single item to library from collection/playlist
- add all to library from collection/playlist

known issues:
- no fananrt/posters
- adding all to library opens a dialog for each item when its a tv show listing (so lots of pressing enter needed)
