and the addon looks for "videos" in the URL. But the newer ones(with no GEOIP block) have this URL format:

Yes, and we cannot retrieve the m3u8 to look for the qualities inside because it is geoblocked.
Up till Episode 605, the addon gets a reply from hotstar site as follows
Code:
{"errorDescription":"200","message":"200","resultCode":"OK","resultObj":{"checkCacheResult":"","height":"360","src":"https://hssouthsp-vh.akamaihd.net/i/videos/vijay_hd/neeya_naana/605/master_,180,400,800,1300,2000,3000,4500,kbps.mp4.csmil/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1529892751~exp=1529893351~acl=/*~hmac=f5a35ad7c39ec674051482170cb962c680f13f0f58b4a59d6db4db8f1b1f07bb","width":"480"},"systemTime":1529893051}
Those urls are not geoblocked
From Episode 606 onwards, the reply is this
Code:
{"errorDescription":"200","message":"200","resultCode":"OK","resultObj":{"checkCacheResult":"","height":"360","src":"https://hsdesinova.akamaized.net/video/vijay_hd/neeya_naana/606/master.m3u8?hdnea=st=1529892315~exp=1529892915~acl=/*~hmac=a9e6e8a445e5bee75b0bf9849e953d6fbc52198682c82b36bc1ab07a7942f677","width":"480"},"systemTime":1529892615}
It is not that the addon is generating a processed url, it is the site that is returning new geo-restricted urls. Nothing can be done unless there is a VPN, atleast for me
Maybe you are using Hola plugin or such in chrome to access hotstar, it is not working with just x-forwarded-for header anymore
