XBMC Supersport Addon

hey guys, where could one download the new add-on? /sorry but the first post is no longer valid...
 
Tinuva, any luck at getting the Supersport Olympic streams into the XBMC plugin? I was looking tirelessly for a way to stream the swimming last night on my XBMCbuntu box which is connected to my TV. After going through multiple plugin that did not work due to me not being in the UK or US, I eventually retired to the study to stream it on my PC through the browser.

PS, thanks for the great work and time you've put into this plugin.
ps. After adding in these streams, even I ended up watching last night. Enjoyed checking the mens powerlifting, guys whose bodyweight is only ~61 kg doing up to 177kg clean and jerks!! Those guys are insane.

Lol, I hate watching weight lifting. It always looks like their heads are going to explode.

Heh. Well I started a Olympic based weight lifting program last year October, so found it fascinating to see what the guys at the top are doing.

The other one that is good to watch is the swimming, because that's almost the only part where SA get gold medals.

Thanks a mil! Now I can watch the swimming finals tonight on my plasma!
 
Hmm, i seem to have a problem.
When i load the Olympics Live Streaming menu item it loads about 100 items and i have no idea what is live.

Is this how the addon is meant to be?

Just tested the latest xbmc addon and I have a different problem. Mine does not show any streams.

What solved it for me was to edit the "SupersportNavigation.py" file and change the following url:
Code:
http://www.supersport.com/olympics/#live_video
to
Code:
http://www.supersport.com/olympics/live-video

Not sure if your problem is related
 
Does anyone know where the "SupersportNavigation.py" file is installed to on the ATV2?
 
Correct they were watching the last Dev (was DMCA'd) as there was no login feature. I'm hoping that they will be a bit more lax now that this has been incorporated into the add-on.

I have a feeling they might also require Geo IP blocking.
 
Surely IP blocking is server-side?
on their website yeah, but not the streaming servers. As for implementing it in the plugin, i know its possible because another plugin has implemented it, but i dont even know yet how to do it. The reason why i know about this other plugin, is its one that was also dmca'd but managed to get approved because they added auth and geo blocking to it requested by the eu broadcaster whose streams it is.

I'm sorry, that sounds like a copout on their part. Sort out your own streaming server's vulnerabilities, don't expect other people to do your dirty work for you. (Not that I'm complaining, since it means I get to use your cool plugin :D)

Doesn't look like the live stream navigations are working with the iOS build. Trying to get it to work on my iPad at the moment, but it doesn't load the live sport or olympics properly. Works fine on my linux box though. Too tired now to shovel through logs, will check tomorrow to see if I can find out whats going on.

Btw, are you using the nightly builds or not? There is an issue with the nightly builds on live streams.
 
I've got a Linux install of XBMC (not nightly or Eden) and I just downloaded the repository and installed the addon from there.

However, I noticed that for some reason in SupersportNavigation.py, monitor.py and default.py the addon was being referenced as "plugin.video.supersport2" and "plugin.video.supersport" instead of "plugin.video.dstvsupersport".
As such, it was failing when you tried to run it.

I just changed them to all reference "dstvsupersport" instead and now it works perfectly. (Although the program list takes an awful long time to load.)

Not sure if tinuva is currently working on the version in the repository and that's why it was all wrong.
