Dear all!

Thank you very much for this plugin!
Some videos, actually most videos, work very well, others don't play (or load?) at all, like most or even all videos from the olympic games.
I have Libreelec 9.2 on a Raspi 3, running the default players (omx)

Is there something special about those videos? On my PC on the browser the videos play very well.

this is what the logfile says:

hi sulla,

libreelec seems to have a problem with drm protected content. there is a release mentioning a fix for that: https://libreelec.tv/2021/07/le-9-2-fix-2-for-widevine/

also check if the following addons are installed

https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:InputStream_Helper
https://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:InputStream_Adaptive

then the videos should play fine.

Dear Sofaking!
I have already libreelec 9.2.8 installed which includes the widevine fix, but thanks for pointing this out.

I assumed that the orfTVthek addon installed those addons (because it installed several dependencies, but I didn't remember which), but I was obviously wrong.
Installed them, not the stream loads and kodi asked to install the widevine addon, which it currently does!

Thanx for support, du bist der Beste!

Hi SofaKing,
since some days the ORF TVthek is not working any more here on my side. I have just upgraded from Kodi 20.1 to 20.2, but it looks for me, that something on ORF-side has changed?!
When i want to open a folder like "Neueste Sendungen" or "Live" just nothing happens.
Are you aware of this problem?
Best regards from Graz, Dieter

Edit:
ok...
Just forget my comment.
I reinstalled the ORF TVthek from the latest zip-file and now it works good again. It seems the update from Kodi 20.1 to 20.2 changed something somehow. But however - now all good again!

no issue here but i still use 20.0

hey there,

i think this might be the current issue with the service api. they removed an endpoint which was used to display the livestreams. haven't been able to push this change to the official repo but you can use the last commit from my github page. if you are using the htmlscraper everything should work as usual. hope i can fix this for good and push the changes to the kodi repo in the next weeks (it's kind of crunchtime at work right now ).
