Hi All,

Here is my add-on I have just released for Showmax.
Watch the video above to see it in action.

Instructions for installation can be found on my blog (no ads).

Cool

Looks interesting.
Can't you rather make an addon for DSTV Now - we need the sport

 

[Yuu]

Amazing, congrats on doing this .

Any contingency if ShowMax asks you to take it down?

I have links to the source code and addon.zip on my blog post.
So people can easily fork it if need be.

After looking at Showmax's source code, I hope they wouldn't mind.
They seem to be quite up with technology and lettings users watch their content easily.

Also, I read this Facebook post as them wanting one (or working on one themselves):

@rpm

Can you fix up this thread so I'm the owner?
It appears my old account was lost when the forums were switched.
I had just created it (and this thread) a day before the switch.

When you click on a particular title it prompts you to login.

Found on OP's site:

Need

• Showmax Subscription (not free)
• KODI with Widevine Support (free)
• 5 minutes (free)

Testing it now and working good on Raspberry Pi 3 along with Netflix.

Thank you OP.

It seems they took it down and it no longer works on Jodi. Any alternatives any can share?

RIP Showmax on Kodi.

At least Dstv Now is still working...last time I checked.

Of course Naspers has a finger in the Denuvo pie, I don't know why I'm even surprised at all.

Hi All,

I have updated my post about this add-on (that has been removed).
https://www.matthuisman.nz/2018/12/showmax-kodi-add-on.html

It now tells you how you can check the MD5 checksum of the add-on.
Therefore making sure your getting the original non-modified version.

This should help safe-guard against someone adding nasty stuff to it (steal info, crpyto mine etc) and then re-distributing it.

Cheers,
Matt

Guys found this on another forum and checked its MD5 checksum according to matthuisman's post. It seems to be clean and working but always check before using.

@matthuisman do you know how to download from showmax with your addons? I have NFTool, maybe do you know how to adapt your plugin to download tool.

That is not going to happen

That is not going to happen

I agree. Go to pirate bay for that and don't mess up a perfectly (for my usage) working addon.
