Hi,

I bought a MLB.TV Premium package tonight. I was hoping to start watching on my Gbox Midnight MX2. I've tried both MLBMC and MLBMC HLS and I can't get either to work with the MLB.TV option. MLBMC gives me the script error when I'm trying to pick a date for the ball game I want to watch.MLBMC HLS gives me a Log in Failed followed quickly by a script error usually when I'm picking a matchup. Sometimes I can get past the matchup and choose the broadcast option, and then it gives me a script error there. I've been reading through the latter part of this forum, and most of this stuff is over my head. I just want to get the ball game going on my TV. It doesn't seem like most of yall are using an android device, but I hope someone can still help me. Thanks

To nail it down: Try the mlbmc without HLS at first - enable the debug logging - make sure you typed username and password correct in the settings - go for a 1200k stream at first - can be changed later up to have better quality - then pick a game from the last day - check if it plays - if not please check the xmbc.log from and paste it here ...

My findings in the last days as i use MLB.TV on several different platforms a day is that they started to kinda restrictive when it comes to the amount of login attempts in a timeframe - this is surly to prevent of limit the sharing of the mlb.tv account you own but can be annoying for sure if you try to get mlbmc running at first and run into this limitation.

for the rest of the guys from the thread: lets keep this plugin alive as best as we can while divingmule is gone - anyone with deeper python knowledge? should we create a fork?

Excellent reply. What I had ended up doing, was moving to another version of XBMC, and I had it working, but then it stopped. Eventually I returned to the default version for my box. And I just realized yesterday the same thing you mentioned about too many logins. See I had it on the highest quality on my Gbox, and it would boot me out every so often, then after so many times, it would just throw out an error. It wasn't until I tried logging in on my PC that it said there were too many logins. Then it hit me, that is why it wouldn't work and than a little later it would start working again. I lowered my quality to 1200 (as you said), and I haven't had any buffering issues. Not as good quality, but beats the heck out of sports devil streams.

After all is said and done, it seems to be doing just fine now with the setting I have. It would be nice if MLBMC spit up the error letting you know that there have been too many logins with the credentials, I think that would save a lot of people time.

Thanks for the support!
