On Monday March 13th 2023, our hosting provider will have a maintenance window for our server infrastructure. During this window a cooling issue of one of the buildservers will be addressed, and our 10Gbit NAS storage connection will be made redundant.
This work will commence at 10:00 GMT and may last until 14:00 GMT. In this time window, there will be periods of unavailability to both this forum and the downloads.
Its pointless discussing grammar any further. I do hope however Ive manged to convey the message to you that there is a problem regarding the A_ and that Ive eventually managed to make myself clear as to what this problem is and that either yourself or mx3L can address the issue.
I will try to be more precise in my terminology in the future.
If I stream from ITV Player both from Kodi and from an Enigma2 plugin the stream will play perfectly but after exactly 1 minute it will stop. It does this without fail each time and everytime. To be sure I also seeked 5 minutes into the stream and played it from there and sure enough after exactly 1 minute when the stream reached 6 minutes in duration the stream stopped once more.
This breaks many third party plugins and for what ?
90% of users dont even know what alternate headers and user agents are let alone know how to use and add them to their bouquet list. Whilst its true that its down to plugin writers to fix,all you have achieved here is to create massive amounts of work for the plugin writers. As each and every scraper will need new code added to it.
You forget that most plugins cater for other images than just Pli, and whilst adding the fix to the final link in the plugin code will make the plugin work once more with Pli,with this fix,it then also stops the plugin from working on other images such as BH
This is an example of the fix now working in Pli but after it being applied it no longer works in BH after this was added to the final link in a scraper.

This seriously needs reverting or at the very least patching properly to allow both methods of adding alternate user agents and headers.
thank you for the feedback my friend and for the ipk.
not everyone is in favor of what we have done here with this plugin,but we personally feel that a plugin once released publicly,should then be available to all,regardless of the image an individual user chooses to use and not restricted to just one type of image or box.
if the author doesnt want everyone to be able to use it,then he should keep it private.
i hope what we have done helps to make people happy.
