For the tests above I tried twice with the same show: once when trying it, and once again after turning on debug logging to grab the log. I just tried another three times after seeing your post (on 3 different television shows) and all came up with the same error. I'm getting the error pretty much immediately after confirming the quality settings in the step prior, so I'm not sure if the timeout period is very short or if it's being effectively skipped in these instances, because it doesn't seem to be hanging there for a few moments before failing like I'd expect from a timeout.

finally, sickbeard does not have anything of interest in its log. No errors, and nothing in the log at all from the past 45 minutes or so since its last check for shows.

Is sickbeard on the same computer that you are running Kodi? If they are different computers, are they connected by LAN cable or WiFi?

I created a new version 1.3.6 that has more debug info for me in the log. Update to 1.3.6 and try to add your shows again. Make sure show lists still work in the addon. Please send me the log section again of the add shows when you have the errors.

Thanks.
