Ya, I tried that and it's not working for me either. Any news on when Darhma is supposed to go gold?

When I try to install this, instead of it creating a directory it extracts to the addon directory its self.

Edit: I created the directory plugin.video.g4tv moved the files to the dir. Restart xbmc it seems to work, try to play a video, nothing.
ERROR: Unable to lookup host: 'plugin.video.g4tv'

Sorry about that. I was in a rush and didn't double check my work. Try this:
http://plugin.googlecode.com/files/plugi...-1.0.0.zip

When I'm done working out the bugs, I'll submit it to the new XBMC repo.

No problem at all. This one is working nicely. Looking forward to some NatGeo and PBS.Nod

Hey, just wondered if this player is ever going to get updated? G4 has an HD option for all their videos now, would be cool if we had this option in the xbmc plug-in. Until then I'll just have to go to the website and watch them (boo).

Again I must ask if anyone is alive here. Would love to get this updated to HD streams or if anyone knows another addon or application that does g4 please pass it along. Thanks.

Surprisingly the code from the old plugin still works. Go ahead and install from zip. It now plays HD streams by default.

Btw, do you or anyone else have any suggestions of what needs to be changed/added with this addon? I'm planning on updating and submitting it to the xbmc repo.

I've been using that version. It doesn't play the HD streams for me. I'm using Eden beta 1. It plays the 480x360 version that is letterboxed both on the sides and the top and botton.

SD stream: http://www.g4tv.com/videos/56866/jessica...xperience/
HD stream: http://www.g4tv.com/videos/56866/jessica...quality=hd

Check pic for example of pillarbox.

Sorry, I forgot to change the version number. Here is a new link:

http://plugin.googlecode.com/files/plugi...-1.0.1.zip

The website is kinda acting funny atm. I'm getting timeout errors and the addon is not working. The website is probably overloaded from the CES news.

Code:
Wait... What happened?

Looks like we goofed. These things happen as we are continually trying to improve the site for fun and profit.

If you wish to contact us by email to report this error, email [email protected] - tell him what you were trying to do/ where you were trying to go and reference your error code: 109730984

Thanks!

Ah, very nice! It's depressing to see that G4s "HD" streams are only 960x540 though, but quality is still better than the SD streams. Thanks a bunch!

I know. G4 with their fake HD. Smile


btw, I finished updating this addon for eden. Anyone who manually installed this addon to eden should notice an automatic update for v2.0.0 soon. If not, it will be in the XBMC repo.
