I've had the iPlayer WWW addon installed on a raspberry pi for a while now. Running kodi 17.3, recentish box.
Everything's been working fine till last night, when nothing would play. I'm getting "name or service not known" errors, and as far as I can make out the url its trying to retrieve for the episodes is "http://www.bbc.co.ukhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/blah.blah/blah" The doubling up of protocol and hostname would seem to be the problem.
I'm guessing the BBC has changed from using relative to absolute urls?
I've not done any software updates recently, and I don't see one available.
Any advice?
Cheers,
Graham

Finally managed to get the update to install. No idea why it wasn't showing up in the repo, but working now, so that's the main thing.
I will take the opportunity to say thank you for this addon. One of the most useful tools on Kodi.
Cheers,
Graham

Hi Guys - I have got SPMC installed on my Android Box. I have installed IPlayerWWW - live t.v works just fine however on catch up A-Z - I get the program list , when I try to open & play I get the error message " hostname VOD-his-uk-live.akamaized.net doesn't match u'a248.e.akamai.net".
I am running SPMC 16.6 with IPlayer www version 2.5.21.
Any ideas please .

Having an issue with some episodes in catch-up. I select an episode, it then begins to play but only sound, not video. Also noticed that the time indicator goes to something like 503 minutes out of 60 total. Anyone else seeing anything like this?
