Just to clarify, is that out of principle or would you accept PR if someone implemented those?
Thanks for keeping the plugin up to date, it's useful!
Hi,

These features have been requested in the past, but they are features that I don't personally need and don't know how to implement. I would probably accept a Pull Request though.
Hi,
About the World Cup of Football which is coming soon, how the add-on will work?
The direct lives will be added automatically or an special update is planning?

Thanks again for your efforts. Just got an email from Yle that they are deprecating some of the public APIs. How will this affect the Yle Areena plugin?
This change would disable this plugin completely.
We are trying to see how many people use this plugin to see what our next options would be.
Please go answer the poll here:
Usage poll
Viewing Yle Areena on the Raspberry Pi in the Chromium Browser under Raspbian has become worse over time for unknown reasons. Live TV sound has started to crackle and video quality low with frequent interruptions despite enough bandwidth on my internet connection. Even worse when watching already broadcasted programs.
On the Raspberry Pi 3 under LibreElec 9.2.6 with Kodi 18.X I have now installed the older areena plugin from
https://github.com/hirsivaja/plugin.vide...ee/python2
Playing old programs works very fine but Live TV is not showing anything, not even a rotating circle showing attempts to connect and deliver.
I am situated outside Finland in the EU. AamuTV in YLE1 has never been geoblocked when looking through the browser.
Any idea what I could do?
(Except waiting for LibreElec 10.X with Python3 support)
