See https://github.com/hirsivaja/plugin.video.areena.
And download from https://github.com/hirsivaja/plugin.video.areena/archive/master.zip.

Thank you!

A small wish: when browsing with earlier Areena plugin the list was a lot less cluttered. For example "Sarjat and elokuvat" has a lot of titles related to Pasila whereas the earlier plugin doesn't show those. Also thea earlier plugin shows the days when show was aired.

Aired date would be very nice to have for me too. And Uutisvuoto (or YleLeaks) don't work here either.

The series is marked in YLE Areena as watchable abroad (and in fact the episodes are listed if 'Are you in Finland' is deselected).
Strangely a few short trailers/promos for Uutisvuoto are instead watchable with the plugin (although they are not listed in out-of-Finland mode)

It was shown in the plugin because it is included in the "Viihde" category. Unfortunately Uutisvuoto is included also in a news category. Thus it cannot be played because Yle does not allow news programs to be played through the API (why don't they?).

Anyway, I modified the plugin to check all the categories and not show programs from those categories that cannot be played.

Added option to not show the clips, for example those Pasila stuff you mentioned (Show clips). Also added an option to show the date when the programs was added to the Areena (Show extra info about streams).

Hi!

I can't get the plugin work either on windows 10 or on osmc raspberry pi 2. It gives error message immediately after starting. Could somebody tell me what i'm doing wrong please? Debug log: http://goo.gl/Xif6St

Hello,
you need to have PyCrypto installed to use the plugin. Instructions for windows: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11405549/how-do-i-install-pycrypto-on-windows
For OSMC https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/pycrypto/7543

Thanks for the explanation.
Hmm... unless you have a 'safe' way to test at runtime what streams cannot be played, it might be nice still to have a chance to try to play the News streams, in case YLE changes the permission policy. So, perhaps you could add a switch in the plugin settings to decide whether to show those streams in the list, maybe with an additional may-not-be-playable marking?

This is a tip regarding HD playback with VLC from Yle Areena from finnish Huoltovalikko AV forum.
Not sure if this could be of any help.

Yeah, that's a good idea and should be easy to do. Btw, I think that classification is probably an error and Yle might change it if you would send some feedback about it to them.

So, is there some fix for viewing videos that are only available in Finland? If I understood correctly, some can view them, but I don't? Or is this related to my Openelec build?


RE: [RELEASE] Finnish TV: YleAreena and Ruutu (Video) plugins - Huxely - 2016-03-09

I tried the latest plugin with the bleeding edge millhouse build (with the latest ffmpeg) of OpenELEC and could not get the "only finland" videos to work. I pasted some logs to github about it. Can anyone report here if they can play videos that show up, when you select "I'm from Finland".

I did a test with Poirot and cannot play them and get the same error as you do.

It seems that starting with OpenElec version 6.0 (released November 2015) the videos are not played anymore. The error seems to be caused by Kodi 15.2 that is used by the OE6 releases.

You can view the videos by downgrading to OpenElec 5.0.8.

Might be a good idea for someone to open a bug with Openelec.


RE: [RELEASE] Finnish TV: YleAreena and Ruutu (Video) plugins - hirsivaja - 2016-03-09

I updated to OpenElec 6.0.3 and was able to get all the videos working. This is fixed in the add-on version 2.2.0 . To get the videos working on OE 6.x change 'Max resolution' from Settings to something other than 'Automatic'.

Now it works as it should. Thank you very much for your effort!
