The problem with building in download support that I can see is that it isn't very portable. Would only work on environments with ffmpeg and rtmpdump installed.

As for using ffmpeg to play the play.m3u8 file that should work, zero and myself did something similar while testing. It may be an expiration issue try playing it within 2 minutes of the fie being created.

holy poop... that worked. Fired up my script right after it was created and down it came :-D This is exactly what i was looking for. I hadn't thought about pointing ffmpeg to it manually until after the file was created for awhile.

Most probably I m doing something wrong but I m not able to download the repo or the plugins. It gives me a "zip creation error".
I m basically going here http://xbmcplus.funpic.de/www-repo/ and selecting the repo (actually I m not sure if I should select the repository.xbmcplus.xbmc-plugins or the xbmcplus.xbmc-plugins) and then I click on download.

Please advise. Thanks

On the shop section of the main site ( https://home.no/xbmc/shop.html ), you would download this: https://home.no/xbmc/www-files/projects/...ns-1.0.zip

That is the ZIP that you want to "Install from Zip"... of course after the blue-cop repo is installed with free cable enabled (completely to where you can modify settings, but dont need to).

Thanks to everyone for their efforts here!

I've been using Free Cable for about a year and a half - love it!

Now, with recent issues, I've followed the instructions in this thread, but I'm not having any luck getting it to work again. In the bluecop repo the Free Cable add-on is just sitting at "Downloading 0%" for about an hour now. Any suggestions?

TIA!

UPDATE: Well, it has finally updated to v 0.6.4. but I'm still getting the script failed error? Any help would be appreciated...

Hi all, I just recently did a full reinstall of xbmc on minimal ubuntu. After being pointed here from the original bluecop thread, I have been trying to follow the instructions here. I have been updating, force refreshing, and restarting both the blue cop repo and the xbmcplus repo for quite a while now, but free cable comes up broken in both. It shows up as v0.6.4 in xbmcplus and v0.5.9 in bluecop. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but not sure what it is.

Thanks

Try to install free.cable from the xbmcplus repo. force refresh the repo, open and wait until loading is finished.

Ok, well I could have sworn I'd done that more than once already, but it seems to have worked now. Thanks!

So I see A&E is no longer listed in post #1, but the disney's are .

So, here are my steps with log file

- started up XBMC (mac osx)
- click Videos - add-ons
- Click Free Cable
- Click Disney
- Click DIsney Channel Movies
- Click Season 1
- Click Suite Life movie
- Does not play - script error

Log

Happens with everything I click on - tried Disney, DIsney JR, Disney XD

I suspect its user or installation error?

So to give you a good Status about abc and Disney.

ABC is working with SSL compiled ffmpeg library.
ABC Family the same, but most of the Clips are single files with mp4.
ABC News I think is working without any Problem.

For Disney channels most of them Need additional code because there are Access proteced.
If you go to their side you will see, the you will get "Please log in with your Provider".

If anybody have a solution for that I can implement.
But currently it is big pain in the ass. Sad
If I have time i will have a look but i can not promise.

You mention ABC, and as I was reading the logs again i did notice that even though I did not click on ABC or attempt to play any ABC shows, the logs show

http://cdn.video.abc.com/abcvideo/video_...nglish.xml"&mode="disney"&sitemode="playVideoULNK"]

All i did was load xbmc and try that suite live movie in disney... should it build the URL that way?

Edit: I guess so, since the xml actually loads for the show i tried... ABC hosts disney?

The repository of BlueCop for installation should no longer be required. However, should problems arise, I recommend to read the FAQ's.

Yep ABC hosts disney. Clips on ABC work without SSL. I would hide access protected content for now.

On A&E, it's not working but probably fixable since lifetime and history work.

I confirm that it is not working for me either. I reviewed the py script and it looks like the 'module' search text was changed at the website level which is preventing it from finding the videos in the episodes search loop. Looks like they modified the video holder section... I've parsed it to the below snipped to hopefully help the python experts Tongue

Code:
<div class="video_holder" id="video_426789">
<meta itemprop="url" content="http://www.colbertnation.com/full-episodes/mon-june-3-2013-john-dingell"/>
<meta itemprop="name" content="Colbert Report 09109"/>
<meta itemprop="image" content="http://colbertnation.mtvnimages.com/images/shows/colbert_report/videos/season9/09109/cr_09109_01.jpg?width=120&height=90&quality=0.91&crop=true"/>
<meta itemprop="description" content="Mark Pocan tempts Stephen with divorce, precision-guided guns promote skill-free killing, and John Dingell wants Congress to learn how to compromise."/>
<meta itemprop="datePublished" content="Jun  3, 2013"/>

<div id="video_player_box" class="no-flash-msg video_player" style="width:960px; height:540px; background-color:;" data-mgid="mgid:cms:episode:colbertnation.com:426789" data-width="960" data-height="540" data-bgcolor="" data-endcapautoplay="false" data-autoplay="true" data-nextvideo="" data-sitesectionid=""></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
   $(document).ready(function() {    
   $Crabapple('.video_player').player();
   });
</script>

<div id="endcap-override_clip-page" class="module endcaps-clip-page endcap-override" data-redirect="" data-countdown="" data-timer="5" data-mgid="mgid:cms:video:colbertnation.com:426789" data-niagara="http://activities.niagara.comedycentral.com/">
  <div class="endcap-background-fade">
   <div class="replay_video"></div>
   <div class="textHolder">
    <div class="title"><a href="">Up Next:</a></div>
    <div class="subTitle"><a href=""></a></div>
    <div class="timer">5</div>
    <div class="pause-countdown"></div>
   </div>

   <style type="text/css">
    #endcap-override_clip-page {
     background-image: url('<!-- function.make_image -- invalid parameters: missing width, height, or imageList -->');
    }
   </style>
  </div>
</div>
</div>

I too am having the same error with The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. Is this just a simple URL change? If so, I can go into the code and alter it to whatever the new URL is. I'm just not very familiar with how this script works.
