rai replay doesn't work anymore

[strk]

You can get the list of available movies but none plays. Something must have changed upstream...

I'm still able to play all the programmes I tried in RAI Replay with XBMC 13. Please post a full log and report what version of XBMC and what version of this addon you are using.

A user in the XBMC forum has reported a similar problem with XBMC 12. I'll try to downgrade to see what's going on.

Ok I was wrong it fails at getting the list of avaiable videos from a channel/date.
This is the log on error attempting to see RaiUno of Thursday September 4th:

I confirm it seems the same problem reported here:
http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=155922&pid=1788693#pid1788693

And it seems to affect only XBMC 12. I can acccess the RaiUno for Thursday September 4th on XBMC 13.

[strk]

is there anything I can do to help ?

[nightflyer73]

Can you apply this patch to default.py and tell me if the problem is solved?

Your patch solves the problem for me, thanks !

[nightflyer73]

Thanks for testing. I'll push it tomorrow and then I'll request a git pull to the main XBMC repository.
