Then that causes the 400 Bad Request error when the add-on tries to open the furl. When I try to access the smil file in my browser for the ISU Pairs live event, I see I'm geoblocked though, so I'm stuck there.

Currently I'm using Kodi Leia on my RPis.  In the process of back porting some of your improvements to Leia I noticed that the addon.py code was concatenating the aired date with the plot text.  Because I've noticed other add-ons that display a separate aired date I did a little more digging.  What I discovered is that if one not only sets the "Aired": date in infoLabels, but also sets "mediatype": 'episode' then the Aired date will be automatically displayed when one uses the Info button on a specific video.

This seems to be a little known feature, though I did come across some earlier discussion in Development > Add-ons > Is there an example of "mediatype" info label.

• In the VIDEOS function set aired format to '%Y-%m-%d' (I'm not sure if this is required, I just copied another add-on):
  
  aired = datetime.fromtimestamp(pubDate / 1000).strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
  
  
• In the addDir2 function add Aired, aired_text, Year, and mediatype:
  
  
  plot_text = ''
  if aired and plot:
          plot_text = '[COLOR blue]Aired: ' + aired + '\n\n' + '[COLOR blue]Description: ' + plot
  aired_text = ''
  if aired:
          aired_text = aired
  infoLabels={ "Title": name,
               "Aired": aired_text,
               "Year": aired_text.split('-',1)[0],
               "mediatype": 'episode',
               "Duration": duration,
               "Plot": plot_text }
  liz.setInfo( "video", infoLabels)
  
  
  Note mediatype set to episode.

For Kodi Matrix the changes to enable the skin to display the Aired date are:

• In the VIDEOS function set aired format to '%Y-%m-%d' (I'm not sure if this is required, I just copied another add-on):
  
  aired = datetime.fromtimestamp(pubDate / 1000).strftime('%Y-%m-%d')
  
  
• In the addDir2 function add Aired, aired_text, Year, and mediatype:
  
  
  plot_text = ''
  if aired and plot:
          plot_text = '[COLOR blue]Aired: ' + aired + '\n\n' + '[COLOR blue]Description: ' + plot
  aired_text = ''
  if aired:
          aired_text = aired
  infoLabels={ "Title": name,
               "Aired": aired_text,
               "Year": aired_text.split('-',1)[0],
               "mediatype": 'episode',
               "Duration": duration,
               "Plot": plot_text }
  liz.setInfo( "video", infoLabels)
  
  
  Note mediatype set to episode.
  

I'm sure you'd easily figure this out but thought I might post how I did it so others might try and perhaps learn a bit about video add-on development.

I tested this with the Confluence and Estuary skins. Note that there might be other values for mediatype that are more appropriate. I simply stopped when I discovered that a value of episode enabled the skins to display an Aired date.

With the 0.999 version, I think mine says it is 0.997 in addon.xml.  Perhaps a typo when updating from 0.998?
