CNTV is not working

[tq010or]

I am in Australia. The CNTV live used to work well, but it cannot find the stream now.
I am using Raspberry PI B with Kodi.

I have fixed this over at https://github.com/RunasSudo/plugin.video.cntv-live. I'm submitting it to this repo now.

Unfortunately, the new version loads all video from Chinese servers, so watching from Australia may be slow. I'll look into finding an Australian server for the videos.

Check the progress here.

Thanks for your quick update!

I upgraded to the new plugin, but only CCTV1 is working (and the signal
drops out some time later). All other channels are not working.
Either reports "no HLS stream" or "channel unavailable".

@tq010or I've made a few adjustments to the addon to fix those issues, available in 2.0.6.

The following CCTV channels still don't work, but the other CCTV channels should.

• cctv2 (60.210.10.12)
• cctv7 (60.210.10.12)
• cctv8 (60.210.10.12)
• cctvdoc (various)
• cctv10 (60.210.10.12)
• cctv11 (60.210.10.12)
• cctv12 (60.210.10.12)
• cctvchild (60.210.10.12)

I'll work on bringing support for the above channels to 2.0.7.

Hi Runas Sudo,
I am in Italy and all the China Live are not working too. My daughter was used to wathc CCTV 14 which is an amazing chinese cartoon channel. Please can you do something to let work CNTV on Kodi. I use an android system to watch it. Thanks in advance for everything you will do.

Strange，CNTV Live works well on win10 UWP kodi v17.0，but not works well on RPi3 with either Raspbian(kodi v15.2) or OSMC (kodi v16.1)
