Ping what address from the pi?

connect.dstv.com

It was the address in the error message, it does not seem to be an account issue as I just tried it on the pc and it works fine.

I'm thinking the Old man did something funny or perhaps an update managed to sneak itself through( the addon only worked with one of the earlier releases and not the more recent ones).
I will give it a thorough going through this weekend.
I am Just pleased that Dstv has not shut it down yet.

Yeh, I spent quite a bit of time on this and the Showmax add-ons.
Then they get taken down.
Not worth my time sorry as I have many other add-ons to build & maintain.

Why must they buy what DSTV wants them to buy? With DSTV bleeding high paying subscribers, you would think that they would want to make it easy for the remaining subscribers to stay. By limiting devices, subscribers and potential subscribers may shy away. The same goes for other streaming services.

Imagine if Vodacom said that you could only use Samsung or iPhones to use its network? all other cell phones will not work.

I have a Zidoo x9s which is a fantastic media player, but doesn't support DSTV, Showmax or Netflix. Which is a shame because it fully supports alternative sources like Cyberflix.

I have updated his plugin to fix the extra data error.
I have contacted Matt and he has checked out my changes and confirmed they are OK.
You will see he has updated his blog with the new version and checksum.

File: plugin.video.dstv.now-0.9.1.zip
MD5: 4abc1adea83ced9a82cf6780a748e435

Thanks,

Cool thanks for your effort. Hope this lasts for a while now and if needed in future you can work on the addon again if necessary ;)

Yeh, I found the issue was that he had moved the Widevine files.
So the add-on would be OK if they had already been installed on first play.
Otherwise, you would get the data error.
