New addon for tubi tv. A legal site for free films and tv similar to Snagfilms or Popcornflix, but with more British Content.

For fans of Space: 1999 it's in high-def and I think all the episodes are here. The Kids and Family selection also has some items that I haven't seen elsewhere. There are a couple of rough edges where some TV series are seen to be movies, but I will fix that when I figure it out.

To view age-restricted videos, you must create a tubitv account with a browser and then enter your email and password into the addon settings.

In my git:
https://github.com/learningit/plugin.video.tubitv/

If it works for folks, I'll put it in the Kodi.org repo. Thanks to Alexsource for pointing this site out.
I've done a quick test and it's looking good!! I've noticed the trending category comes up empty.

It would be cool if you could add the search and a bitrate selection, once you iron out the tv series glitch and such. Wink Oh! and some of the stuff there has closed captions (eg: Arang and the Magistrate)

Version 1.0.2 has SD/HD video selection and subtitles.
Nice! I'll give it a whirl later.
The subtitles work very well!

One thing about the streaming quality:
From i can tell, this site streams shows and movies in different bitartes, but they don't change resolutions. So, if a movie is 480p at the highest bitrate for that movie, it's also 480p at the lowest bitrate and at the bitrates between then (sometimes there's one, sometimes there's two in-between bitrates).
So, stuff like arang is always 720p at varying bitrates, and stuff like Fists of Bruce Lee is always 480p at varying bitrates.

But I guess you can leave this and the search for later. Wink
I don't know what happended, but it's apperently broken. Anything I try to play brings up a lot of google cookie errors: http://xbmclogs.com/pw2gwzh8o

The cookie errors aren't meaningful to the addon. I don't actually see what's wrong - you need to enable debugging and the curl specific errors to get the details.
The addon is working fine where I am.
the log seems to be too big for xbmclogs Sad and the log uploader fails. So I copy pasted a bit of the log, hopefully it's relevant:

Code:
-deleted-
There's not enough log to see what's going on. You can always cut&paste the log into xbmclogs.com or pastebin.com - please delete the log from this thread.

Try playing this url in a browser and see what happens (make sure you copy the link, the display text may be truncated):
http://c11.adrise.tv/v2/sources/content-...k.mp4.m3u8

If you're not using a proxy in Kodi do not use one in the browser.
Let me know the results. Thanks.
Neither firefox or chrome knew what to do with so i downloaded it opened with vlc.
Lot's of "Bad file descriptor" errors appeared (it tryed to open files on the same local directory the m3u8 was dowloaded to).

Here's the log on pastebin:
http://pastebin.com/hJqBZHdA
I had to trim it lower to 512kb. Xbmclogs was not having the full log either.

You can't download that type of m3u8 and play from a local file, there are only relative urls for the ts segments. Just try to play it in VLC using the http url. If it doesn't play there's an access issue of some sort, possibly geo-blocking. I have tried playing this url through a number of proxies in Europe and Asia and it plays fine, so I'm not sure what's going on with your locale.

Ok, all those cookie errors are damn annoying when you're trying to follow the curl trace. It seems that for whatever reason the ffmpeg library is unable open the m3u8 which, in my experience, means that you will need to try using a proxy or vpn to access the site. I seem to recall that you don't have a very fast internet link which may also be an issue, the particular video that you're trying to play needs a 5Mbps minimum link. If you aren't able to play the http url directly in VLC either blocked access or speed (or both) can be your problem.
Have you been able to play any videos, or is it only certain ones that don't play?
I've tryed several different ones and neither work. But, they seem to play fine from the site itself. I'll try again when i get back from work, if I have time.

VLC resolves the url as a local folder and therefore, does not find the files. But, that happenneded when i downloaded the m3u8 to a local folder (not the brightest choice Tongue ) and then opened it. I'll try to open the url to the m3u8 directly in vlc.

I'll try uninstalling a certain addon that updated recently aswell.

I'll keep you posted.
I've opened the link directly from between vlc itself and it works well.
I've also tryed another two films: Astropia and 200 pound beauty. I had to refresh 200 pound beauty, but they both worked on the site and failed on the addon. I also looked for the links in the log files and both work in vlc.

I tought I had a addon updated recently, but the update didn't download completely, so it did not applied. Therefore, I don't think it would be culpript. I've uninstalled it anyway and wiped the kodi folder of any trace of it. But playback still fails...

Tryed other addons and things seem to be funky with snagfilms and popcornflix... but youtube and crackle work ok...

I'll try to make a clean install and see what happens...
I've made a copy of the kodi folder in programs files and made a shortcut to kodi.exe in portable mode (-p). I've installed tubi tv, snagfilms, popcornflix and youtube.
tubi tv and popcornflix are ok, but snagfilms seems to be still funky (an empty list is returned when you select movies).

I'll keep installing addons in the portable mode kodi untill I, hopefully, found the rogue addon that's messing up this and popcornflix on main installation of kodi.
