Works fine for me on kodi 17. Wondering though about WBC games, are they going to show up, not seeing the Korea vs Israel game that is on mlb network this am.

Anyone getting the WBC games to show up in the menu?

No, I'm assuming nobody has been able to.

However when I selected a game to watch, kodi force closes every time. Any ideas on what causes this and how I can fix it? I am using a chromebook.

Need a log file:

Here's a quick fix to watch the World Baseball Classic through this add-on:

1. Find the installed add-on on your system:
   
   • Mac: ~/Library/Application Support/Kodi/addons/plugin.video.mlbtv/
     
   • Android: /Android/data/org.xmbc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.mlbtv/
     
   • Windows: %APPDATA%\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.mlbtv\
     
   
   
2. Do one of the following:
   
   1. Download this main.py file and replace the main.py file inside the add-on with the downloaded version.
      
      
   2. Open main.py in a text editor, search for "grid_ce.json" (there are two locations in the file) and change "grid_ce.json" to "grid.json". Save the changes.
      
3. Restart Kodi to be sure it picks up the change. You should now see WBC games alongside spring training games in the listing of today's games.
   

This change loads the games list from a slightly different location. Note: this may break other features as I haven't tested much or closely compared the original source to this new one. If you run into problems, uninstall and re-install the MLB.tv add-on.

Edit March 9: Updated the main.py download to match the new version in Kodi's official repo. Included add-on locations from hhqjdaasc's excellent post.

Hello new to the Forum. I purchased the MLB Premium package this year and am watching via an amazon Firestick with no buffering issues at all. I installed the addon on Kodi 17 Krypton added my username/password and when I open the addon and click on Today's Games I am being Force closed from Kodi. I've read that others are having the same issue? Can anyone confirm that this addon works on Kodi 17?

Thank you!

Thanks, that seems to work.

In Android, that file goes in this directory:
/Android/data/org.xmbc.kodi/files/.kodi/addons/plugin.video.mlbtv

In Windows it would be:
%APPDATA%\Kodi\addons\plugin.video.mlbtv

Is there a way to get MLB.TV into kodi on the Amazon Firestick. I can find ways to do for a computer, but can't find how to get to kodi on the firestick.

Yes, there are several ways to install the repository onto the Firestick. I downloaded the repository to my Dropbox drive on my PC and then copied it over to my download folder on my Firestick and installed from there. My issue however is that I cannot get it to work on the Firestick on Kodi 17. Works great on the computer but on the Firestick when I try to open Today's Games it Force closes me out of Kodi. Anyway here is a link to a tutorial that will walk you through getting on your Firestick

BTW, I've submitted the addon to the official Kodi repo, so it show up in the next few days for easier access / installation.

EDIT: Looks like it's already listed

Congrats!

Is there a public upstream where we can contribute to future versions? I'd be happy to submit a pull request based on my post above, for instance.

Thanks, I am having issues with getting the addon to work on a firestick on Kodi 17. I thought it might be the plug-in so when I saw this post I deleted and reinstalled from the Kodi Repo and still not working. The addon loads, allows me to configure with username/password, options, etc however after opening the addon and choosing either today's games, or yesterday's games it will force close kodi? Do you know of any issues running the addon with either the firestick or kodi 17? Works great on the PC

i'm having the exact same problem with kodi 17 on a mibox 3rd gen

Is there going to be a new version for Jarvis? 16.1 Or is it just for kodi 17 only?

Github is fine. I'll take a look at the pull request you've already made. Just haven't got a chance to look at it yet.
