Hi,
this is an add-on for ThatGuyWithTheGlasses.com
The videos on the site are mostly hosted on blip.tv, some on youtube and springboardplatform/gorillanation.

A few videos are divided in multiple parts - Then a dialog appears.
Please let me know if you find any unplayable stuff.

It's available via the xbmc.org eden repo!
Any feedback is welcome...

Have fun!

Also fixed playback and multi part handling for some videos.

Hi!

Thanks for the AddOn!

I'm getting an error when trying to view multipart items (eg the recent Turkish Rambo review by NC: http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videoli...kish-rambo ).

I can watch them through the Blip.tv addon, so I assume the stream itself is ok, and I can also watch other streams on tgwtg.

My guess is that the problem might be here:
https://github.com/AddonScriptorDE/plugi...lt.py#L108

I think the url.replace(".x?p=1","") in line 108 is only executed for single-part items, not for lists.

Thanks!

I love this addon i use it everyday

but one problem I have come across so far is in theCinemaSnob, (my fav), that it doesnt display all the episodes

I fixed this by changing a line in the listVideos function, line 72
Code:
content = getUrl("http://thatguywiththeglasses.com"+url,"limit=0&id="+id+"&sectionid="+sectionId+
"&task=category&filter_order=a.created&filter_order_Dir=desc&limitstart=0")
Changed to:
Code:
content = getUrl("http://thatguywiththeglasses.com"+url+"?limit=0&id="+id+"&sectionid="+sectionId+
"&task=category&filter_order=a.created&filter_order_Dir=desc&limitstart=0")

Looks like it wasnt passing the parameters, so i just included them in the url
my python isnt great so this quick fix worked for me

Would it be possible to do playback selection for BlipTV content, in the same way as the Penny Arcade TV plugin works, offering a prompt for which bitrate/format to play.

This is because BlipTV allows for the content producer to upload a very-large not-intended-for-stream original, which it generates stream versions from. And the Flash player knows to do a quick gauge of bandwidth and pick the right one. But XBMC just plays the first in the list of options, which is often the high bitrate original.

For example, http://blip.tv/pawdugan/rss/ will always default to the highest bitrate version. In some cases this may even by a WMV file.

Thanks, you are right: I forgot to add replace(".x?p=1","") for multi part items on the last update.
A fix is now available via the repo.

Thanks! For some reason it was not working via "POST" (like on the site). Most shows did not even need this for displaying all episodes.
Its now working fine via "GET". A new version is available via the repo.

Im just using the Blip.tv Add-on for video playback. I have no influence on the resolution/bitrate.
But you can change the maximum resolution via the Blip.tv Add-on settings.

Bug 
The add-on works great, mostly on Nostalgia Critic videos, I've noticed an odd glitch though.

Some videos WILL stream, but the screen will remain on the video choice menu.
(No video, perfect audio.)

I doubt it's just the Raspberry Pi I'm using, or ALL videos would do this, not just a few.
(Older videos especially do this, although again, not all of them. I managed to get some of Nash's old videos playing, mostly not.)

Nash is in the "Team TGWTG" menu if you don't watch his videos.
If you don't, DO. Especially his WTFIWWY (not the live ones preferably), "Doctor Who Classic" and "(Not) Doctor Who Classic" and his "Wonder Woman (2011)" review with Linkara and Film Brain.
(Those two guys are ALSO awesome to watch.)

WTFIWWY: http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videoli...sh/wtfiwwy
Doc Who in Specials: http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videoli...h/specials
Wonder Woman (2011): http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videoli...woman-2011

Yes, RaspBMC seems to have problems with some codecs!
Thanks for your recommendations - I will have a look at it...

It seems that this plugin fails to play Blip-based videos from TGWTG now, and the Blip plug-in works fine. I haven't tested to see if the same problem happens for Youtube videos.

EDIT: And now it's working again. Huh.
