OnlineVideos 2.5.0.1 [2024/11/17] (7 Viewers)

I have been trying to add SBS on Demand to OnlineVideos using the site parser but the instruction video is hard to follow when you are dealing with a very different site. Any help would be very much appreciated. The web link is https://www.sbs.com.au/ondemand/

SBS Australia... that brings back memories...
But seriously, I could take a look at it (to determine if playback is at least possible in mediaportal) if it weren't for the geoblocking of the site.
Are you able to setup a proxy so I can do some tests?

That would be great if you could help.
As a matter of interest I have a plugin for Kodi (current version) that works well without the need to login, however it does not show the on demand movies menu. Anyway I would prefer to use MP, as it has much smoother playback and searching ability.
I can certainly send SBS login details, if that would help.

Credentials are not the issue here (at least I think), I just can't play videos from the netherlands due to geoblocking (at least that's what the site says)

If you use a VPN and connect it to an Australian site you should be fine.

Ok, found a free vpn and created an account. I'm indeed able to playback videos and at first sight it could be doable in onlinevideos.
To be continued...

Thanks, that's good

Which plugin is that?
Currently I have the programs a-z, but I'm not able to find the final url of the video, perhaps I can take a look at how that plugin gets it

The Kodi add-on that is working for SBS and channel 9 is aussieaddons.I have not tried the other channels.
Here are some links that should help you:

I've cobbled something together, can you take a look at it?

I have downloaded the new file "mp-onlinevideos2-master". Where should it be installed for media portal1(current version)?
