Add-ons seem to have stopped working on the latest Kodi 19&20 Nighly. Can anyone check if it continues to work on Kodi 19.3 Release?
RE: CW and FOXNOW addons? - Eye in the sky - 2021-12-15
Add-on is still working fine on Kodi 19.3 (Windows and Android).
RE: CW and FOXNOW addons? - QianyuLi - 2021-12-16
That's odd. Is your CWTV add-on stream quality setting the default HLS or is it resolution specific?
You can download this file and paste that file to https://pastebin.com ?
RE: CW and FOXNOW addons? - Eye in the sky - 2021-12-16
Resolution specific (1080p) on Windows and Android.
I tried to download the file, but was getting a security risk warning with Firefox.
Are you by any chance using a Smart DNS to unblock The CW?
RE: CW and FOXNOW addons? - QianyuLi - 2021-12-16
I think it has to do with the difference in the files returned by some networks. The file has no file risk, just open it as text.
In addition to that issue, it seems that the CWTV plugin currently (tested with Kodi 18, Kodi 19 unknown) has the issue of not being able to select different bitrates for 720p\1080p, which would result in not being able to play the highest quality streams. I've found a fix for this so far.

I updated the CW add-on to accommodate the website page changes and after testing it works on Android Kodi 21.1.
There seems to be some issues on Microsoft UWP, seemingly because of ffmpeg, which may need to be investigated.
Anyone who needs it can try using anxdpanic's PlayThis add-on which works on UWP.

Thanks for the fixes! Please submit PR to my Matrix repository. https://github.com/MetalChris/repository.matrix

Are you referring to DRM protection playback failed errors on Windows and Android?
RE: CW and FOXNOW addons? - Eye in the sky - 2025-01-03
Is the CW add-on still working for anyone?
