The Food Network website has, once again, changed significantly. From what I can see, the full episodes are no longer available on the
www.foodnetwork.com site and have moved to watch.foodnetwork.com . That site requires a cable id to unlock the content. It's not that difficult to handle the cable id, it's just that there are many variations on login for the various cable providers and is probably not worth messing around with. If you have a cable id, you're might be better off using the official android app which can be accessed seamlessly from Kodi - it also now provides the live channel. So there are a few options for the addon I'm thinking about:
1) just providing the clips that are on the
www.foodnetwork.com website
2) using the Canada or UK foodnetwork website which are still unprotected for content
3) creating an addon for the watch.foodnetwork.com site which will support maybe the top 3 or 4 cable providers.
4) waiting to see what scripp's is going to do with the website - they locked content up before and then put it back on the unlocked site
For those who are addicted to food TV, you can find The Cooking Channel addon in this forum post which still provides some programs by familiar faces from Food Network:
