Excellent, thank you. I assume the commercial break skip and such are in the works?

Thanks again

Thank you for your hard work!!! I appreciate you.
many thanks in advance for picking this up,  

I followed method 1 for installation, downloaded plugin.video.mlb.zip,
installed the plugin from zip in Kodi addons, configured, just adding my MLB login info
installed the latest vc_redist.x86.exe from https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/wi...w=msvc-170
rebooted,

not using a VPN...
started kodi, MLB plugin, today games, picked a game that should not be blacked out for me, selecting a home or away video feed, get error 
I can get radio feeds to work.

I can get video feeds working from http://localhost:5714, of same game I tried in kodi, different audio feeds work, btw, nice.
But I don't see blacked-out video feeds listed, via the browser and kodi,  what is being used to determine blackouts?

I should say I'm in Canada and with the previous plugin the only blackouts I would encounter is apple-tv games, etc.

again many thanks for picking this up, very much appriecatedd

Does that include just normal browser watching?
Actually I can't get the games to come up in the browser either.  The Android app is working fine but in the browser it's just timing out.

That's great. Thanks very much. However I can't seem to watch anything.. all games just get this:

Dang it, I did have my work VPN on by accident, now with it off, no blackouts, video feeds are listed in the browser (and working!), and video listed in kodi too, but still get the same error when trying to play in kodi. 

Playing from browser is fine, just miss the skip to inning and skip commercial breaks, god those were great features.  Smile

Many thanks again for the work.
Is someone going to fix the api on the original mlb.tv addon? Or is that not possible?  That already has all the things we want.

But the new one, not sure if it only works on Kodi run in windows or something.. but doesn't work for me.
did you install the latest vc_redist.x86 ? reboot?  start kodi, already installed and config plugin?, then try the browser?

i installed the plugin from zip on google tv kodi, working there too.

I use kodi on CoreElec - not windows.

Edit: I can watch games if I use the browser going to the kodi-ip:port - but cannot watch any games in Kodi itself?

I get the errors which I pasted a few posts back.

Have you fully updated CoreELEC? As of now, the new add on requires Kodi v21 Omega.
Yes I will be updating the current one. I had no idea he was abandoning this one and starting his own. Kinda caught off guard by this, but it is his right to do so. He has contributed a lot of features to this addon and I thank him for that.
@tonywagner please start a forum thread for your addon

actually it was on 20.5, I thought auto-update would have kept it up-to-date.

It works, great thanks. Look forward to seeing more of the great features that are in the other addon Smile
