On my iPhone 4 when accessing the Video add-ons folder when I am away from my home wifi network will result in the error message "Remote Share: Network is not connected". If I am home and on my wifi network I do not get this error and can access the folder. I can access video plug-ins directly no matter what if they are saved as favorites, so it only seems to happen when I access the Video add-ons folder.
I deleted the entire XBMC folder in /var/mobile/Library/Preferences/, uninstalled XBMC, and installed it fresh. Same result. I can't access the Video Add-ons folder even if I still have a cell data connection. I have not tried using another wifi access point other than the one I use at home to see if I still get the error.
A similar incident was reported at http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=94079 but the thread focused more on the ATV2 and some other "Network is not connected" errors and didn't mention the Video add-ons folder past the opening post. None of the fixes there worked or are applicable. The last message in the thread mentions that a new update to XBMC for iOS fixed the issues they were having, but I'm guessing it didn't fix everything, but went unnoticed because people don't normally travel away from their network (wired or wireless) with an ATV2.
I am running:
XBMC PRE-10.0 Git:4b032be (Compiled Feb 20 2011)
iPhone 4 CDMA/Verizon
iOS 4.2.6
Jailbroken with Greenposi0n
Steps to recreate the issue:
I can recreate the issue with a fresh install of XBMC with all default settings/skin or with several custom settings and a different skin. It does not seem to matter.
Download some video add-ons if testing with fresh install. (though it doesn't seem to matter)
Turn wifi off, open XBMC on iPhone (and most likely iPod touch and iPad?), open Videos, then open Video Add-ons.
Logs:
Video Add-ons working (with local wifi): http://pastebin.com/Rx880Zx2
