Note that Live TV is not supported: For this I suggest to use pvr.zattoo.
But Live streams (of sport events) can be viewed with this plugin.
You can find them in "Topics" -> "Sport" -> "Die nächsten Livestreams"

Thats bad :-(
Why was it removed ?
When i use the Website on my Windows Laptop in Switzerland i can look the livestreams without any problems, without registration or fees, why not in the addon ?
For Zattoo i need to register at least so they know me !
regards

It was removed after they introduced DRM protection for their live TV.
Technically it would be possible to add support for this, but I think the streams are then only
in 540p resolution, so I think it's better to use Zattoo where you get a nice HD resolution.
If someone submits a patch to add support, I'm open to merge it.

thanks for the reply. Unfortunately now all folders under "topics" remain empty for me (both on Kodi 19.4 as well as 20) , though, so I also can't access the livestreams anymore. Is this a problem on my side, or have there been any changes at SRF recently?

I have the same problem. Interestingly, I can still access the shows which I had added to my Kodi Favorites. But direct access via the addon itself stopped working since a few days.

It should be fixed in the plugin version 2.2.4, I have just released it yesterday.
