Another eclectic film website with foreign films, TV, cartoons and anime.
Repo is available at:
https://github.com/learningit/plugin.video.viewster
I am working on the .f4m version for better resolution viewing. It's working, but there are some stability issues with the proxy. I'll release when it's more stable.
I would appreciate any feedback from folks outside the US, I may have some work to do to support the German site.
Before anyone asks, this is a legitimate website. I've been slowly completing the websites listed on the MPAA
http://wheretowatch.org/ website which were not in the xbmc.org repo - Snagfilms, Popcornflix, etc.

In Germany the German category is missing and the Turkish? category has Spanish movie titles with original (English) soundtrack, the rest is working fine.
I really appreciate your work, thanks.

It's exactly the same in the US. (I don't understand the Turkish thing either)
Are you assuming that there is a German category or do you know that there is one from looking at the website with a browser? If it appears in a browser, is it being redirected to
http://de.viewster.com/ ? Also, is the text of the website in German or English? And lastly, is primary language set in your browser German or English. The reason I ask is this website seems to rely on exactly what is in the http request headers to change its personality, more than indicators or flags set in the request urls.
I still have some work to do because the categories and searches support a language and sub-title language indicator which would be nice to set as addon setting. There are English, French, German and Spanish indicators. Thanks for your help as I try to get language support working for this addon.
German language selection is working with v.1.0.3, thanks.
One thing I noticed is that the Travel & Destinations Thumbnail is missing, but besides that, everything seems to be fine now.

I got around to watching a full flick in viewster addon last weekend, and it worked great. There was a bit of buffering somewhere around the middle of the runtime, but that was probably my internet connection acting up.
Viewster was working great, but now I'm getting script error.
Code:

Seems to work now - must admit only found this the other day when it stopped working - love it, so many odd things to discover and rewatch
Thanks

Can you give more info - what item are you trying to play, etc. I don't remember seeing very many videos with German subtitles.
