RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - mrdally204 - 2012-09-14
Is ESPN down? I tried the add on and it fails, then tried the actual website and getting a 305 error. Wondering if its just me or others see this as well?
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - locomot1f - 2012-09-14
looks like it might have been down for a little bit.
i'm not positive, but it looks like they made some minor changes to the site.
all should be good now.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - mrdally204 - 2012-09-14
working for me as well, must have been on their end. I'm not used to that outcome
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - TheHawk - 2012-09-15
Everything worked fine until today...Works fine with my browser through.
Getting a script failed error message and my log says this:

ditto, I can access the menus, and see what's on, but nothing will load.....
Ok.. I found a work around and I hope it works for you. Also, let me state that I might not have found this without the help of WildBill.
Before entering the add on:
1- high light the plug in
2- enter the add on setting (it's "C" for me on my keyboard and select add on settings)
3- I have to make sure that the "use custom user files" is turned on. Without it turned on I get a script failure when try to enter the addon.
Once I have entered the addon and I can see the content:
1- enter the addon settings again WHILE I'm in the addon. ( it's "C" again for me)
2- I then have to turn OFF the "use custom user files" (yep the exact same one I have to turn on to before starting the add on)
I have been watching with zero issues doing this. However I do have the above process each time I want to use the add on.

Really looking forward to this. I have been getting around the blackouts in TN by using HotSpot Shield and using WatchESPN.com through my web browser. Would love a more hassle-free way of watching that is integrated into the app on XBMC!
Everything is ready. I"ll post simple How-To instructions in a few hours. Hopefully, no more BLACKOUTS. Also you International folks might be in luck as well. It will fix restricted streaming from anywhere in the world. Including the BBC Player. You can now enjoy watching that from the USA as well.
BBC from America? I could hug you!

Question...
I have a verizon fios account. I can watchespn on my computer through the browser fine. However I travel alot and take my xbmc appletv2 with me. Most of the locations I go don't have a "valid" watchespn provider... However I can always login to my computer and "verify" my access with my verizon credentials.... will the solutions listed on this thread (for example http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=95053&pid=1149669#pid1149669 ) work for that type of setup? So for example I currently am in a place with att DSL, so I can only watch espn3 content on xbmc/watchespn but on my browser on a computer I can verify with my verizon credentials and watch all of the espn/espn2 content as well.
I've done the following with no luck for espn/espn2 content on my ATV2. (I can watch espn3 and replays with no issue)
I've created the userdata.xml with my Verizon data (from home) with a verizon swid by going to http://broadband.espn.go.com/espn3/auth/userData
I've created the cookies.lwp with the correct verizon data
I've enabled custom user login and put in my credentials into the plugin
I've updated the default.py with the custom one (including my verizon SWID)
However I still get the blackout error on espn/espn2 live content... Obviously I'm missing something or the plugin is not designed to do what i'm doing. I've tried all different combinations of the above steps with no luck.
I CAN watch espn/espn2 on the computer by verifying however with verizon credentials eventhough the connection is over ATT DSL, so I would think I could get xbmc to do it to.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - svet-am - 2012-09-21
I am a bit of a n00b to XBMC so where do I download this add-on? I don't see a link in the OP and I don't see it in the XBMC GUI, either.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - sthomas13 - 2012-09-21
if I remember correctly, it's in the Bluecop repository
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - svet-am - 2012-09-21
thanks sthomas13! I wasn't aware of repos for XBMC. Just searching Google for "Bluecop repository" got me what I needed.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - bharath23 - 2012-09-22
Is there something that can be done to get espn/2/u working on comcast. Is this something comcast needs to fix with espn or work needs to be from the plugin.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - bharath23 - 2012-09-29
I was wondering if someone can tell me the steps required to change the userdata and cookies.lwp file. I got the userdata from my friend who has FiOS from another city/state. I was wondering what needs to be done so that I can use it in my place where my ISP is comcast. I replaced the userdata.xml file with what he gave me, edited the cookies.lwp file. Both of these are store in custom directory and I have custom enabled in the plugin settings. If I try watching any espnu stream it fails.
edit: I was hoping if someone could tell me how to get espn/espn2/espnu working, espn3 works. I tried the other methods on the forum listed for verizon, it doesnt seem to work.
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - locoguano - 2012-09-29
Getting plugin failed on this today... Anyone else having issues?
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - sthomas13 - 2012-09-30
yep, actually getting plugin failed messages on a LOT of my addons today.... maybe some kind of system wide update?
RE: [RELEASE] ESPN3.com Addon - WildBill - 2012-09-30
Works for me. Is the game blackout?
