Hi and thank you for this great plugin. It works in such an elegant way to present online videos from uk channels.
In the last week there has been a change on the Demand 5 site. It is not a bug with the plugin, but I would really appreciate some help as my girlfriend loves her Australian soaps! The other sites I use (BBC,ITV and 4OD) are all still working perfectly. When I open Demand 5 in Online Videos, it displays all programmes available, but when I choose a programme to play it displays message "unable to play video.no url". If I use browser to open Demand 5 it plays programmes in flash player. I'm happy to try and figure this out (limited coding skills), but would really appreciate some guidance in where to start.

Regards

Andy

    I'll try and take a look at it.
    If you want to have a go yourself you'll need to checkout the OV source code from here, the demand5 code can be found under "SiteUtilProjects\OnlineVideos.Sites.brownard\Demand5Util"

    Great and thank you for your reply. I will look at code, but fear it will be beyond my skills.
    Thanks again for your help.

    Hi Brownard

    I've had look at code but am afraid it's way beyond my skill level. If you do get time in the future to look into the possibility of getting Demand 5 working again, that would be greatly appreciated,and when time permits I will look deeper in to how the Online Videos/Demand5 playback mechanism works so I have better understanding. In the meantime I'll just record programmes (didn't want to fill hdd with Neighbours!) and have used MultiShortcut plugin for access to Demand5 via browser for older episodes.

    Thanks again for your help

    Andy

    Wow..that was fast. Thank you SO much Brownard,it's working perfectly again. I hope I will be able to help you in some way in the future:)
    As soon as I get time I will do more research into how you set up the sites in online videos.

    Cheers

    Andy
