I just need help with the sports devil streaming... help anyone????[/quote said:
This is what I find with Google about not working streams in Sportsdevil, so no credits to me.



Why can't the author guarantee that SportsDevil will always work?

This addon is different from many other addons because of several reasons:

  1. it scrapes many websites => changes in structure and content
  2. these websites collect streams from other websites => inconsistent reliability of content, lots of streamers (castamp, fcast, wcast, youtube.... 100+ at the moment)
  3. every involved website wants to protect its content => domain protection, obfuscation of source code...
  4. every involved streamer wants to protect its streams => changing servers, encryption, tokens, several script calls for one stream...
That's why I can't garantuee any stable streams and why it's so much work to keep things working.

I often get 'No streams available' but there is definitely a stream on the website. What am I doing wrong?
'No streams available' means one of the following:

  • There is no stream
  • The streams are not supported
  • The streams are supported but not recognized
If a stream is not recognized, this can have one or several reasons:

  • The regular expression is wrong
  • The html source code is encrypted (escape sequences like %xx and custom javascript)
  • The website embeds the stream from another site by means of (i)frames
I have already written a 'demystification' function that is called if no stream is found on a first try. Most of the iframes are auto-selected and in addition to that I have implemented some of the javascript functions. The latter is hardcoded and very hard to keep up-to-date, so I would need a python function that parses javascript code. Any help appreciated.

just wondering if you flash an older version for BH will all/most functions return or is it down to proxy required for all versions? just a query.

In google ou can find a "fix" video for Sportsdevil

thanks mate.

still got nothing tho. All the fixes relate to xbmc. what am I missing.
I d/loaded "sportsdevil fixes master" and unpacked and exported to the relevant folders all it did was to cause my vu+duo to crash when I tried to open sportsdevil...even after a restart??

yes matey,

d/loaded the master .zip file, unpacked and copied the files from there to my vu+ box using a similar path as the windows. didn't d/load the openeELEC file as I thought it was the same as the .zip file.

I know it might be a stupid question but I do copy the files to my vu+ or do I have to install xbmc on my pc?

just to add to discussion, sportsdevil isn't working for many on the dev site a suggestion that there is an issue with BH ,which, i doubt is case as i can't get it to work properly on pli either, however a new version of tsmedia is promised in next 7 days, so maybe then. to answer another post re proxy, i haven't checked the tut posted i'm sure it's the one creating a sub domain then generating a proy ip, works fine, however you need to install the version of tsmedia where the change proxy option first appears then you can update to latest version

@eattheliving,

after delete and re-install TSmedia its not getting better.
Its say "no items availeble"
Its is strange that its finding the stream but not playing.
can it be that we dont have the good player to open the stream?
we need flashplayer/ace stream player/sopcast but do we have this kind of player on our Enigma box?

yep I'm back to " no items available" now. If we are getting an update in a few days I think i'll not bother trying anything else until then. I did notice that there was an update on tsmedia called "tsmedi-userstream-m3u-iptv-sam" don't know what this is for?

and maybe your right with the media player theory.

cheers guy's

I installed the latest version and ITV1 and bbc one (the only 2 that I tried) stops playing in about 5-10 minutes..

I am using Vu solo genuine: blackhole 2.0.9
and tsmedia 4.9
any ideas ?

Maybe this can be a reason:.......
we need flashplayer/ace stream player/sopcast but do we have this kind of player on our Enigma box?
the reasonfor issues with video/sports devill by TSmedia dev , he awaits the xbmc coder to updare them before he attempts to rre-integrate them to the tsmedia plugin, in the latest version, 5.0 ,released yesterday they still don't work...
