FilmON support

Post by sixties keith »

hi, was just wondering if filmon was still supported? much like tvcatchup it only provides free to air channels much like freesat in the uk.

Ive been able to get it to work (thru the channel option) of plexbmc but i was hoping there was a plugin still available for it?

no way, its such a good plugin too.

as ive said i can get it to work as a channel thru the plex app but the stream drops out after a few minutes :( (maybe ill throw a debug log up at some point)

hopefully it comes back, its awesome for fta tv now tvcatchup is lacking many channels

Keith, I think Buzz meant for you to check xbmc.org forum threads, it's where people announce plugins that might just work for XBMC4Xbox, especially now with changes in 3.5.

Is this it? The author (Eleazar Coding) said he abandoned development, but someone else (kinkin) created one that called F.T.V, see these threads, maybe helps.

Yeh, that's what I meant. To be honest, most of the plugins we may be able to use are developed elsewhere - so always good to check the source, as they might well be broken because of site changes if they scrape or other things, rather than being xbmc4xbox compatibility issues.
