That's great news! i've been hoping for a plugin like this for a while now.

marathont · 29-03-2011 6:17pm

Cant wait to try this

aledoux · 29-03-2011 8:34pm

kaisersose77 · 29-03-2011 10:03pm

doesnt install unfortunately, folder structure error when installing it

Voodu Child · 29-03-2011 11:05pm

Shows up fine in the video addons menu, but when I try to run it, it says:
Error:
Script failed!

Edit - Okay, so I fixed it, I renamed the folder to plugin.video.vodie

Seems to work, got a stream up and running, will try it out properly tomorrow.

It's working for me on Ubuntu. Great to see this addon.

nickhx · 30-03-2011 12:29am

Installed and working on my atv2 :-)

Only catch is I can't get live tv to work

aledoux · 30-03-2011 7:48am

Ok Thanks for letting me know about the installation issue. I have it resolved and documented.
A new zip (plugin.video.vodie_1.0.1.zip) is available for download.
If you got VODie 1.0.0 to work, no need to install the updated version.

NickHX: For Live TV, VODie is currently listing all the live streams available. This doesn't mean that they are streaming anything. I tried this morning on my ATV1 and Daily Show played fine. As for Live Latest Irish News it looks like the stream is using an audio codec that XBMC RTMP library doesn't support yet. Please let me know if this is still not working for you.

All request, issues please use the Issue process available on the VODie page.

aledoux · 30-03-2011 4:06pm

A new release of VODie (1.1.0) is now available allowing viewing Live TV from Magnet.

nickhx · 30-03-2011 8:21pm

Live TV working fine thanks both on RTE and Magnet Web TV.

digitaldr · 07-04-2011 10:08pm

Getting Error:Script failed! when I try to run 1.1.0 in XBMC Live 10.1
Maybe it's not compatible with xbmc live?

PogMoThoin · 07-04-2011 10:10pm

Any chance of porting it to Boxee?

AdrianII · 08-04-2011 12:09am

fantastic job, working fine here

BionicRasher · 08-04-2011 8:13am

+1 for Boxee
Pretty Please !!:)

zuroph · 14-04-2011 12:09am

fantastic so far, only problem I have is Im not seeing dates on the Rte player, its just showing the show title for each video on option. is there something im not doing right?

EDIT: durrrrrrr change the view to list. my bad

slykid · 25-04-2011 2:43pm

Hmm... installed fine on ATV2 but crashes XBMC when it tries to play anything. I did get one ad on RTE to play and then it just crashed while fetching/buffering the program.

Any pointers?

Mac daddy · 17-05-2011 8:11pm

Very good job Aledoux well done!
But the only thing is nothing decent on RTE

bonkers · 27-05-2011 1:20am

any chance of this being made available to international ex pats?

Goolay · 27-05-2011 9:25pm

My favourite XBMC plugin by miles, fair play

banquo · 04-06-2011 4:08pm

If you can find the time to port this to Boxee, I will buy you all your drink for an evening.

No, promise.

claytonie · 19-06-2011 8:40pm

Super Job aledoux really completes XBMC.

26-06-2011 2:00pm

Really great aledeoux. Thanks for supporting those of us still using XBMC on an XBox. Only problem I'm having is in the "Live" section of the RTE area.

yllw.ldbttr · 28-06-2011 6:57pm

+1 ~ Beers on me if you can port to Boxee.

banquo · 28-06-2011 7:01pm

SO MUCH BEER.

28-06-2011 11:15pm

I figured out a few things in relation to the problems I've been having with the Live section. It seems when there's a movie on either RTE1 or RTE2 you can't watch it. Fair enough I'll use the Magnet TV. After taking some time to read this thread fully it seems the "Live News Now" won't play because of an unsupported audio codec.

Unfortunately I'm now having problems with the TV3 section. It's not showing the latest episodes of things such as Emmerdale or Coronation Street. I've checked the site and they are available to watch there. The plugin doesn't find them though.

bk · 29-06-2011 9:47am

Any chance of a Plex port?

Spocker · 15-08-2011 7:13pm

Just tried this on my ATV2 - everything works so far, thanks

Because it's missing from your install page, the path for ATV2 is different to ATV1, it's this:

/private/var/mobile/Library/Preferences/XBMC/addons

jonathan11 · 02-11-2011 11:07pm

Great job. Have broadband only here and now have tv. Thanks!

Tom Dunne · 06-11-2011 7:11pm

As somebody not living in Ireland, a big thank you. My media center is now complete.

Not all content is available, but a good proportion of it is.

cauliflower69 · 10-11-2011 12:45am

I'm not getting any feeds from TV3 at all is this normal or just my setup ?

Great plugin btw

theduffer · 10-11-2011 1:09pm

The TV3 plugin hasnt been working for a while. Any idea how/who would be the person to contact who developed the plugin to alert them?

Post bugs here: http://code.google.com/p/xbmc-vodie/issues/list
but it looks like the problem with TV3 is already posted on the google code page. Maybe it is abandoned or the dev is busy currently.

squonk · 11-11-2011 2:38pm

Sounds like a great plugin OP! Any chance we'll see it on Plex anytime soon? Go on... please!!!!

Squall19 · 23-11-2011 8:00pm

Works great, using for a while now.

Any other decent pluggins for XMBC?

Using Icefilms for my movies, this one for the basic channels and footystream for the soccer.

Any pluggins for freeview, bbc, utv and american channels like HBO etc?

Any know a good alternative to Icefilms?

funnyclub · 03-12-2011 5:57am

Can this work with OpenELEC?

Duke Leonal Felmet · 03-12-2011 5:15pm

Great work. TG4 doesnt work.

Works fine on my htpc with openelec loaded

Voodu Child · 03-12-2011 9:21pm

OpenElec is just the Linux version of XBMC running in a custom Linux OS. So any XBMC plugin will work because it is XBMC.

Download the zip file and put it on a USB stick. Then put it in your HTPC and go to system > addons > install from zip file
and browse to the USB stick and select it

eoinkildare · 26-12-2011 9:57pm

can anyone tell me how to install this on apple tv2 that is jailbroken to run xbmc?

thanks,

Eoin

Read the post above yours.

eoinkildare · 26-12-2011 10:21pm

I'm not exactly a techie. How does one hook a usb stick up to apple tv? it only has micro usb port on the back...

26-12-2011 10:29pm

Crikey! That's what I get for being a smarty pants. I thought the ATV had a USB port.

Can you SFTP the zip file to somewhere on the ATV and install from there?

eoinkildare · 26-12-2011 11:43pm

indeed!

Figured it out. got cyberduck and addedit. brilliant!

thanks to the guy who developed it!!

cheers,

Eoin

eoinkildare · 28-12-2011 8:05pm
