Kika addon broken

  • Sorry for writing in English, my German is still a work in progress

    The Kika addon has been broken for a few months now and I finally had a chance to check the [definition=12,0]debug[/definition] logs:


    Digging around in the configs it looks like the base URI is http://prod.kinderplayer.cdn.tvnext.tv which does not appear to be valid any more.

    I believe I'm using the addon from https://github.com/68000a/Gigathek but that project does not allow filing of issues.


    Any hints on where to get help on this?

    Yes, indeed.
    URL is no longer valid.
    If I don't find a replacement URL in finite time I have to abandon KIKA-Mediathek.

    As a replacement you can use ZDFtivi Mediathek or ZDF Mediathek (mobile contents).
    Is has exactly the same contents as KIKA.

    Vielleicht könnten wir auch mal einen Support Thread für die Gigathek Addons aufmachen.

    Dr Support-Thread wurde doch erst vor Kurzem von Dir höchstpersönlich geschlossen :)

    Ja weil die Leute immer das alte Zeug von Sarbes installiert haben.
    Kannst gerne einen Thread für die Gigathek Addons aufmachen, finde super das du das weiterführst.

  • @supine: What about with the "Kika Plus" Addon? It's available for Krypton and up to Matrix. Available in our Kodinerds Addon Repository.

  • KiKa-Mediathek should be OK now.

    Thanks for taking a look so quickly.

    For some reason nothing was updating, took a reinstall of the repo to get it going again. ?(

    While I can now browse shows the videos don't play. Tried a couple of different shows but they all produce a similar error:

  • Anyway, KiKa-Mediathek is not in my focus, so it might be better for you to stick with the mentioned "Kika Plus" Addon.

    We've tried Kika Plus but the kids are bit confused by the menu hierarchy. I've at least got their regular shows into favourites.

    Also, I was struggling to install zdftivi because of:

    Looks like the version needs bumping in the repo xml https://github.com/68000a/Gigathe…addons.xml#L216

    Strange!
    I tried a few videos and the all played well.
    Also the video you mentioned played well, which is "logo! Die Welt und ich. - logo! am Montagabend".

    Maybe you should acticate the addon setting "Ignore adaptive streams if possible", because it seems your inputstream.adaptive has some problems.

    Sorry, my fault.
    Should be OK now.
