@mattmbk: Try updating the httplib2 module: httplib2 0.7.7
Extract it and overwrite the files in the addon folder. You can also try updating trough XBMC but I don't know if it works. If it still doesn't work and you use a proxy, disable it and try to start the addon again.

Thanks, but no joy. I got the same error

I'm getting a similar error when trying to load this season's Condensed games. Last year's seem fine, and Live games seem fine. I've also tried updating the httplib2 module per the link, and it didn't change anything. From the log (if you need anything else, just let me know):

And thanks for all your work on this, I like this interface way better than the official one.

Could you please post a YouTube video of the addon in action?

I'm having an issue where the stream crashes back to the add-on game menu, its only started recently happening i'll see if i can get a log and post it. Its almost as if its buffering and then i just gives up on the whole thing.

Try disabling "Show Home/Away Dialog (Archived/Condensed Games)" in the addon settings and report if it fixes the issue.

I have seen the same thing. Would it be possible to add a retry assuming you can detect/handle the stream ending abruptly?

It don't think it's possible to distinguish between a stream that ended abruptly and a stream that ended regularly.

It's an SSL error when the addon is trying to log into the website. Did you install anything that might have messed with SSL?

Just did a fresh install of Frodo and now the addon crashes XBMC when attempting to stop or back out of a stream. Any ideas on what may be causing this?

I'am having the same issue and no sound until today (but this could be a server problem).
Which information do you need from me?
I can provide you the debug log (/storage/.xbmc/temp/xbmc.log)
[...]

The Client .22 is yatse remote on android phone.
I'am using a raspberry pi with addon version 0.42.

Thanks.

Upload a complete debug log (with debug logging activated) on pastebin.com and post the URL.
You can also try disabling "Show Home/Away Dialog (Archived/Condensed Games)" in the addon settings.

The errors are not related. I'm working on a fix for the error you posted.

EDIT: The error is fixed in version 0.4.3

I don't have a YouTube account. The addon has a regular XBMC interface. It's nothing special.

EDIT: Here are 2 screenshots:

Yep, works great now, thanks, much appreciated.

Hi carb0,

First off, many thanks for the add-on.

I'm having a bit of a problem with the add-on though. I downloaded the zip file from the first post in the thread and installed it on my system.

Problem is that its version 0.4.2 and i cant seem to update to 0.4.3 and watch archieved/condensed games? The update option is greyed out. Any idea on how to get the latest version?

Running latest version of Openelec (Frodo).

Cheers!

EDIT: Nevermind, I turned on my system this morning and it was updated to 0.4.3. I can now get access to condensed and archive games. Cheers again Carb0 and keep up the good work

Ah, figured it out. I'm using DNSMasq on my router to view blacked out games. If I turn that off it seems to work. Any idea why a simple POST fails with it turned on (given that my web browser works fine)?

Someone suggested pausing the game for some mins decreases the number of re-buffers when the internet connection is having trouble keeping up. I tried this but I see the stream buffers 7 or 8 seconds and then stops downloading. Wondering if I have a setting wrong or if 7-8 seconds is the maximum buffer size. If 7 or 8 seconds is really a maximum, I'm wondering if there is a reason for the limit.

@popesterb: Download the repo (zip file) in the first post and upload it to your OpenELEC device. Then go to "Settings->Addons->Install from zip file" in XBMC and load the downloaded zip file. You can then install the addon from my repo in XBMC.

Thanks, got the add-on installed and running! Very nice. Haven't tried any Live games yet as I live in the Middle East so don't normally watch live games anyways.

i Just installed xbmc frodo on my jailbroken Ipad 4 Ios6.1 and the plugin makes xbmc crash some times. Whenever I stop a live stream, it causes the xbmc to crash and sometime when i click on the addon itself and it makes xbmc crash. Is anybody else having crash problems on Ipad 4. Other than than everything else works fine.

I have the same problem, but it also happens on all three PCs at home I have xbmc on. Stopping live feeds sometimes crashes xbmc, also just clicking into directories.

Anyone else notice that when a game goes past the 2.5 hours scheduled for tv, the game feeds just stop? This isn't a problem with this adding, it happens on he iOS app, Apple TV, and web browser too. After a few minutes the feeds start again, but I miss like 4 or 5 minutes of the game.

binder420, roshy.

That would be a xbmc bug if xbmc is crashing. Would suggest you guys grab your logs and report it.

Unfortunately it's not possible to increase the buffer.

Hi, I have just started having a problem yesterday. I try to start the add-on, but keep getting "Check your login credentials". I have re-entered them several times. Here is the output from the xbmc log file:

I'm getting the same error when stopping a live stream then trying to start another one or change directory, I tryed disabling "Show Home/Away Diaglog (Archived /Condensed Games)" same issue
the difference from myself sand binder420 is that this is on PC not ipad

[hospitalbed]

Hey guys. Running XBIAN on the raspberry pi and I installed this yesterday.

When I try to run the add-on it simply says "script failure gamecenter.py" in the bottom right corner with a Red X. Is there a way to get a proper log to see what might be causing this?
