I noticed I couldn't update my library and was getting the "cannot connect to the remote server" error. So after looking on here I seen that some are having luck fixing the issue by adding the youtube add on. I try to install the add on and I can get as far as sellecting "xbmc.org add-ons" and then it just sits there saying "waiting" and never connect to the add-on repo. I also notice The MovieDB shows and update available however I cannot install the update.
I'm using Eden Beta and even tried a fresh install with no luck. Seems to me something is currently down. Anyone else having similar issues?

I have only had the issue for the last couple hours. 7:00-9:00pm EST.
Wasn't home the rest of the day to try it.
Can anyone else access add-ons right now? This is happening on all three of my HTPC's. Windows Eden Beta

Appears only 2 of my 3 xbmc box's are having the issue. No idea what is causing it.

Very strange. I can't think of anything that would cause that. Hope it clears up for ya.

FIXED!
On my two boxes with issues I closed xbmc and then had to go into task manager and end the xbmc process.
After doing so I was still not able to update The MovieDB. I was however able to get into the Add ons and install Youtube. After installing Youtube I was then able to update MovieBD and successfully update my library.
No idea why the XBMC process was not ending when I closed XBMC or why I needed to install Youtube. But all is good again!

Interesting - wonder the specifics? I don't have the YouTube addon installed and no issues with Beta 1.
