Thank you, I added in code to detect this, show an appropriate error message, and disable the channel in the settings. Right now it is at version 2.9.9, I want to give this a few days of testing before pushing it to the official kodi repository.

Looks great, and much cleaner now that we can hide channels - thanks!!

Any other takers on the ViewESPN name? I'm partial to using something that starts with ESPN so that it shows in the addon list near the Es.

You could go back to just ESPN. Or maybe something like ESPN Networks, ESPN Access, ESPN Live, ESPN TV, etc...

But - You fixed it, you name it. A rose by any other name, and that sort of stuff. As long as it works, it's good.

Might be time to change the icons and fanart though...

Yes, I agree! Very nice work. Thanks!!

I'll give it a more thorough test over the weekend, but so far, so good.

I have a suggestion for the addon name
how about Espn-Play
since we can play all the channels now
Here are some logos:

@MetalChris, love the artwork!

no personal opinion on the name. maybe best to just call it ESPN.

I have gotten a few false positive results on "channel not supported" and it gets disabled automatically. Happened 2 times today, clicked the video a second time and it loaded up.

Not a fan of getting it renamed, but if we are taking votes "ViewESPN" is a great one mentioned so far.

[awaters1]

I have made a couple of updates for handling blackouts and other issues (2.9.11). I will keep the 'ESPN 3' name but will update the icon to be the ESPN Play one from binder420 and the fanart from MetalChris

[awaters1]

I added a release of 2.9.12 that contains the updated artwork. Given that it has been pretty quiet I will work on getting this into the official kodi addon repository.

[aafan4u]

can you please post the address for the new ESPN 3 add-on.

[locomot1f]

can you please post the address for the new ESPN 3 add-on.

it's on the first page.

the addon should also be in the Official Kodi Repository.

please correct me if I'm wrong.

[awaters1]

I have submitted this to the official kodi repository https://github.com/xbmc/repo-plugins/pull/592 we will see if it can get in.
