RE: [RELEASE] Free Cable - US station aggregator - DetrieZ - 2013-02-22

Let me first begin with adding my kudos for a great addon!

A couple nube questions.
I noticed some shows are missing seasons/episodes, .Is this because Free Cable is intended to be a "catch up" type addon? Or am I missing a setting or something?
Examples:
The Big Bang Theory is only showing 6x17, 6x16, 6x15, 6x14, 6x7 & 6x6
How I met your Mother is only showing 8 episodes over two links

Is there a way to "play all" episodes back to back?

What is user name and password in General Settings for?

Are there any future plans to include 'premium cable shows' (HBO, Showtime, like Dexter, Boss, Game of Thrones, Shameless?

Thanks again for a great addon

Thank you.

The addon parses the official channel websites (cbs.com, abc.com, etc) so only the episodes available on those sites are available via the addon.

I believe the user/pass you are referring to is if you are using a proxy

Anyone know if there is a fix for this problem besides setting the pause on refresh rate change to 0.0 seconds?

Does no one have this issue?

Ok, now CBS works after I reinstall my XBMC on the ATV. Great huh?

Now I would like to know How can I activate the subtitles from CBS itself. I've check already the box in the setting menu, but what now? I don't like the xbmc subtitle addon because of the syncro fail.

Hey hoping somebody can help me with a question about installing this on an ipad 2 with ios 6.0 and frodo. I was able to ssh in and put the zip file and then find it and unzip it but when I go to the bluecop addons there is nothing in there. Was surprised that I didn't go to systems to do it but rather it had it's own add-on screen in the ipad. Pretty sure it's a simple solution of something that I'm missing, some step but I'm stumped. Tried powering down but to no avail. Any help is appreciated.

You are da man!!! Thanks so much.

Hi all,
I'm a late joiner to this add-on and thread, so I seem to be missing the basic steps. Is each station a separate addon? There are a lot of separate add-ons on the git-hub. Do the each represent a separate plugin?

Seems like there are constant updates being posted here, I'm hoping these are going to be incorporated into the git site soon to make all of these changes automatic? Smile

Where's the best place to start? Just clone the git into my XBMC plugin folder?

Nope all one addon.

start with Bluecop repo in the very first post


RE: [RELEASE] Free Cable - US station aggregator - youngt2 - 2013-02-27

wow. what an awesome addon. my post seems stupid now that I see how to do it. I've never added a repo like that before, just addons.

So these addons will update automatically? What's will all the fixes and modifications I see posted here for certain shows? Does someone integrate these into the updating addons?

Also, can I use something like XBMC.MyLibrary to easily find shows on this addon and not have to drill down a lot of times? I'm just starting looking into that addon.


RE: [RELEASE] Free Cable - US station aggregator - cordfree - 2013-02-28

All these updates will be added, you are just seeing a helping hand be given to a very good but busy developer.

XBMC MyLibrary will work, but I never finished setup on it because it was so much work, for me at least.. Bluecop was going to work on getting library import from the plugin like hulu has. Hopefully now with a little help from others, that will happen.


RE: [RELEASE] Free Cable - US station aggregator - CueTheMusic - 2013-03-01

I'm having issues with USA. Essentially most things just fail to play. Here is an example of a show on USA. CBS, Comedy Central, ABC, NBC, Nickolodean, etc, work fine. USA does not. Strangely, videos without descriptions on USA do seem to work, but if they have a description they are not working.. These may have a different source? Any ideas?[/code]
