Don't suppose anyone had a go at getting iSky working?

 

[TommySharp]

Just another bump to say that iSky being added to webvideos would be great!

If someone has a vpn for me, I can check if it's possible

 

[doskabouter]

Thanks to eeknz for providing me a vpn, it's working again!

Must say, more or less working, because I still have some issues where the videos/categories don't quite match those in the ps3 xml's

Edit: Almost forgot iSky... but it seems that you have to pay become a sky subscriber...
So, (guess I'm beginning to sound repetetive) is anyone willing to share his/her credentials with me?

Hi. This is sounding very promising, it would be great to get this working. Could I ask you to also have a quick look at the TV3NZ site as well while you have the VPN. It's the other major provider of free-to-air TV here in New Zealand and like TVNZonDemand it just doesn't seem to find the videos via Onlinevideos plugin... I can't afford iSky ;-)
Thanks for your efforts on this!!

Do you have an example of a video which won't play? Just tested it, and 100% of the videos I tested (just one ) played fine

I'll find you one that doesn't play, I encountered quite a few from TVNZ and TV3 that give invalid url errors. give me 5 minutes.

I know there are some problems (which are quite hard to solve) with tvnzondemand, but tv3nz should work ok

Wow, last time I check last week, lots of missing videos. Currently can't see any missing videos.
There is however an error when I choose the "Title (A-Z)" category.
One thing I'd like to comment, it would be good if a description of the video could be parsed, or a date, as often there are multiple videos with exactly the same title, see attached screenshot.

Here are some of the videos that don't work

'All Shows' -> 'A' -> 'Airtime' ; the videos give a no url error

'All Shows' -> 'A' -> 'Airways' ; *** error getting category videos ***

'All shows' -> 'A' -> 'Amazing Extra ordinary Friends' ; the videos give no url error

'Recommended' -> First 2 videos in category work, but some of the others don't

'Recommended' -> 'Last chance dogs: last chance dogs 9' -> no url error

'Recommended' -> 'Happy endings: Party of six' -> no url error

'Most Recent' -> 'Masterchef australia: masterchef australia' -> no url error

'Most Recent' -> 'Last chance dogs: last chance dogs 9' -> no url error

'Most Popular' -> '2 Broke girls: and the drug money' -> no url error

'Video Extras' -> 'Resaviour Hill: Episode 8 Dream' -> no url error

'Video Extras' -> 'Amazing extraordinary friends: AEF origins: Absolute Power' -> no url error

 

[doskabouter]

Will look into the tv3nz error. As for the TVNZOndemand: I fixed (a number of) those errors yesterday!

Edit: And as for the description/airdate: I do see them in onlinevideos. Again, do you have an example?
