Sonyliv

[Taburientelp1]

Hi thanks for the Update, just wanted to ask if for Sonylive Addon do you need VPN ? cause its not working .... and is it possible to use it just by enabling indian IP address ? thanks a lot for your work

[Vikassm73]

Actually, not tested outside India. If sonyliv.com works perfectly using VPN then this addon will also work.

[Taburientelp1]

is there any way to add the option ip address configuration like in voot i think that should work smooth with sonylive

[Vikassm73]

I think Voot is not geo-restricted hence working without VPN. Just check voot.com in the browser without VPN.

[Taburientelp1]

it is geo-restricted it just appears with a blank page not found

[Taburientelp1]

in kodi when i added the indian IP it works perfectly without a vpn

[Vikassm73]

If you keep the Indian IP address blank in the Voot setting, does it work? Here I am keeping it blank.

[Taburientelp1]

at least here in Spain if i keep it blank it doesn't work

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but I think SonyLiv addon is not compatible with Matrix yet. I haven't looked at the code fully but StringIO, BaseHTTPServer which are used in the addon are deprecated in python 3. Also, I haven't tested the addon in Leia as I don't currently have any Leia fork setup. @Taburientelp1 are you on Matrix? @Vikassm73 can you make the addon Matrix compatible in the upcoming releases?

correction done for matrix

[nikhilk0]

The addon is still not functional. You missed correcting 'SocketServer' for matrix compatibility. So, I had to change 'SocketServer' to 'socketserver' to get the main options. But after that almost nothing works:

• I'm not able to get past most of the listings in Channels section and None of the listings in Movies section
• For the shows which I managed to get past through to the episodes listing, the videos don't play.

Hope you're able to fix those issues.

Sorry been using leia since still lot of addons are not compatible 19.0

[Vikassm73]

The correction did for socketserver. Version not changed so you will have to manually update.

Menus are now accessible, but the issues mentioned in my previous comment are still there.

[Vikassm73]

I don't have a matrix version. So please share the log

[nikhilk0]

Thanks for letting me know. I'm attaching logs for matrix here. kodi.log I also tried the addon on leia setup. On leia movies sub-sections are accessible but still can't play any movies and episodes. The error while playing is the same on both matrix and leia. Tell me if you want logs for leia as well.

Most of the addons which I use are available on Matrix now. But that was not the case in the 1st month of the release of Matrix. So I understand.

[Vikassm73]

In your case, the local proxy is not working. Just comment on lines 744 and 745 and try to play the stream.

[nikhilk0]

Just to confirm these are lines which I commented

But after that I'm getting following error

[Vikassm73]

Done few changes. Please check now

[nikhilk0]

Still 403

[Vikassm73]

Don't find any solution. There should not be any issue while using in India. If you are able to play it on sonyliv.com then it should work in this addon also.

[nikhilk0]

On the website, login is required. After logging in I'm able to play the videos. But in kodi there is

"ERROR: CVideoPlayer::OpenDemuxStream - Error creating demuxer"

every time I play any video. No worries for me though. I hardly use sonyliv. I was just checking out and testing the addon.

[Vikassm73]

The correction did, You can check it now.

[nikhilk0]

Just checked and it's working. Thanks for the fix.
