Hi sfaxman,
what would we be doing without VideoMonkey these days. Anyways, great work, keep it up.
The seperation of Adult portals from VideoMonkey into VideoDevil is okay for me, I got kids too. I just wish that it would be possible to turn of this confirmation that you have to pass, each time VideoDevil is starting. Wouldn't it be possible to make some true/false thing in a VideoDevil config file, so that there is a choice of turning it off?
One other thing, rather a request. There are a couple of XBMC Plugins that support the German ARD "Lindenstrasse" Video Streams as found on:
http://www.lindenstrasse.de/lindenstrass...enframeset but then all are broken, meaning there is no working "Lindenstrasse"-Plugin for the XBMC. So my question/request, couldn't you... implement it into VideoMonkey? I mean whenever there is some time to do so for you...
Greets,
WOnken

This already planned for the next version

but not soon. This page has similar nasty rtmp sources as RTLNow

Any news on the Mac / ATV front?
The current versions of the monkey and the devil still crash XBMC 8.10bf1 and ATV, exiting with Error Status 10. I would love to use these two plugins, especially the monkey.
Many other plugins work fine, like GoogleVideo, Ted Talks, Onion News etc.
Randy.
Hi sfaxman,
This plugin is really a nice tool. Good job!
I have tried to add new channels myself ( spanish VoD sites like
http://www.rtve.es/alacarta ), but my results are always empty and i don't know the cause.
It will be great if you can describe me shortly the steps i have to take in order to add a new site, or better if you prepare a short tutorial for all of us
Of course, i will send you the new sites when i get them to work.
Thanks again.

Hi, Try enabling the xbmc debug logging (Settings->System->Enable Debug Logging) and post a log

I think it will be not simple to add it. Take a look on
this. Maybe it is a good start.

Hi Sfaxman,
ok, I'll enable logging and try to post a log, thx.
Randy.

The current version works for me without problems).
I removed xbmc.transletePath() as i saw no resentment under linux. This function should do nothing under windows and XBOX (Correct me if i'm wrong).
This did not fix the crash problem. As I stated above, the problem was the codecs.open method call.
I replaced codecs.open with the default python open method, and I've been able to run videomonkey without it locking up xbmc. To deal with unicode, I just made sure to encode('utf-8') before writing out to the config files. I haven't tested it too thoroughly, but everything seems to be working.
I've made a patch file which can be found here:

Did you try to update your xbmc version
Which revision do you use
Can you test if your modification works when a category with non ascii chars is written to cache. Go for example to TV -> Arte -> More -> arte (FR) -> Categories. Any errors

Hi Sfaxman,
I just enabled the loggin and here's the log:

Randy.

If you can tell me, where I can find the log on the ATV after activating the logging, I can post my log before crashing, too.

it's in the "logs" directory in the frontrow user's home dir. there is the regular xbmc log and a log from the crashreporter, but the latter didn't really show much information about the crash.

Hi sfaxman,
do you know
http://www.kino.to ?
And what happened to
alpha-Centauri? It's vanished after my update to the new version 1.13 today! Is it broken again?
Perhaps you can also explain and write a little tutorial how to create proper *.list and *.cfg files for VideoMonkey to add aditional sources (and/or to fix broken existing ones) self dependent. That could maybe be a relief for you.
