Hi all,
I am using kodi nightly on windows. Today my waipu.tv plugin stopped working. I am using version pvr.waipu v21.5.1 of the plugin.
In KODI's log there is only this:
2024-04-19 18:55:23.311 T:4948 error <general>: AddOnLog: pvr.waipu: [Http-GET-Request] error. status: 503, body: <html>
<head><title>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</title></head>
<body>
<center><h1>503 Service Temporarily Unavailable</h1></center>
</body>
</html>
Is it possible that waipu has somehow blocked the plugin? I am still able to use the waipu.tv via chrome browser on the same machine.
Any ideas and help are welcome.
Thanx in advance,
am

Hi,
it looks like it was a temporal issue. The plugin works again.
It's strange as I would like to close this topic or delete it, but I have no edit button.

Same here. Kodi 21.0 over Windows.
The PVR plugin is displayed separately as the device "Kodi 21.0" in my customer account. I can also download a complete EPG and the broadcast list.
If I then select a channel, it is buffered, the picture and sound appear for a few seconds (Full HD and synchronous), then the streaming stops.
If I restart Kodi, I can repeat streaming for a few seconds. It is also irrelevant whether I select a free or an encrypted channel. On the same PC I can watch in full quality via the Chrome browser without any problems.

I can confirm this problem for KODI 21 on RPI4, RPI5 (Libreelec 11, Kodi 21) and Windows (Kodi 21).
Some channels stop after 3-5 seconds, other are working, but it takes around 5-10 seconds until channel is starting.
When going back to Libreelec 10 with Kodi 19.5 it works like charm.

I was able to solve the problem under Windows with Kodi 21 and the add-on thanks to an entry in the kodinerds forum.
Streaming menu -> Streaming protocol -> on "MPEG_DASH" (default "AUTO"). The latest version from the REPO should be installed.
I can now watch all German channels in full resolution and without interruption (tried several public broadcasters and Pro7 HD). Streaming also starts immediately - without any waiting time.
Maybe this will help someone here with the same problem. So the problem might not only be solved under Windows.
