XBMC for PC no video plugins work

[danman9]

I will do my best to explain this issue as it is not a script error. When I open lets say icefilms it loads perfect then I choose "Movies", then I choose popular, and then there is nothing. The list is empty, it does this with all the video plugins. I am not sure if this log will be any help since no obvious error popped out but here it is http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=14492
This is also on my windows 7 laptop.

I have ask this on the xbmc hub forum with so far no response so I figured why not ask here.

The URL was trying to access doesn't exist (404). Open up the C:\Users\NCS Customer\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.icefilms\default.py script and look for author and contact him/her for the latest version, or ask for advice.

Code: Select all

Thanks Ill do that but do you have any idea why it does this for every video plugin? I mean to my knowledge 12.1 Frodo is the newest build of xbmc and icefilms newest build is 1.1.28.

Because dropbox is what it name implies, it's where people drop stuff and then sometimes remove it (or maybe it is removed from them).
I hope you aren't expecting top quality service from a free / community maintained / pirated content setup

Take any of those URLs, put them in your PC web browser and you'll see the problem is not with XBMC or maybe even the script, the content is just gone.

This makes perfect sense now. I really appreciate the explanation.
