Using this on the latest Kodi and I see USA, Worldwide and all that. But each folder is empty.

Is this just me? Also, had to clean install Kodi and same issue...

Same problem. I thought it was an incompatibility issue with Kodi 17 but after i downgraded to kodi 16 the same problem. I think it could be related to new https protocol of earthcam website

idleloop-github commented 7 years ago

The problem is that the html code at the web site has changed, so the addon must be updated. It'll take some work...

PS: it is not an https web issue: that was patched on the last version.

idleloop-github commented 7 years ago

Still working on a new version.

Additionally, the addon "inputstream.rtmp" seems less functional now: on some platforms (Windows) earthcam cams don't connect when they previously did, and in some other platforms (arm) libressl libraries must be correctly linked. This can be checked simply using your "favorites" links if you had any. These links are still functional, so if you can't connect then there's a problem with "inputstream.rtmp" that didn't exist before.

Maybe another version update of "inputstream.rtmp" is needed, but I'm not sure (and I do not control that), so maybe some platforms won't have a functional earthcam addon even after the new version. Still checking.

I've released a quick patch named v 1.1.0.

The README contains instructions for RTMP activation and patch intent in case no cam functions... Anyway, any RTMP issues cannot be patched by code here.

Thanks for the update. It does not work for me though. I am running it on PI3. RTMP is enabled. I tried to update it (as suggested in the readme) but it is not in the kodinerds repo.

Not working on RPI then?

@cffm : Raspberry Pi 3 is compatible with RPi 2 rtmp at kodinerds: try it. This should run for RPis!

For other platforms in problems with rtmp (Windows, for example), I've released v1.2.0 - with it, HLS protocol can be activated in the add-on's configuration: this can (hopefully) patch the cams for those platforms.

I'm not sure if HLS runs with RPi2 & RPi3. Try it and tell us!

Seems patched for now. Thanks to all of you for your comments.
