XMBC sky sports help please

[hamilton]

On navi-x there is a streaming channel called 'hammy 35' all the UK channels and many more including all 'sky' including  sports available. This is an absolutely freel, picture quality variable but watchable.

I have Xbmc on my Apple TV 2. Must check out offsidestreams.

Managed to download offsidestreams, paid my £3.99 and I'm very impressed! Quality excellent on my Appletv.

Thanks.

Is anyone else having trouble getting the Sky Sports channels via Offsidestreams / XBMC? Everything was working fine until about two weeks ago but now I'm getting "Script Error" every time I try to connect to one of the Sky Sports channels. Others channels  are working ok but not SP1, SP2, SP3 or SP4, which just happen to be the only ones I'm interested in  )

Is there another add-on I can use to get access?

[SteveJ]

just updated Offisidestrams to the latest version (2.2.9) in the hope that it would solve my problems but now all channels are gving me "script error". I expected progress but not backwards

Offside streams is no longer on xbmc. They had a problem with some if the providers trying to put adverts on so they banned them. OSS also had problems with their payment collector and had to get everyone to sign up again.

I think you might still get it if you use a PC and go directly to OSS site but not through xbmc.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the update Stoop.  Their "Match Replays" seems to be still working - I watched the Sunderland ManU game last night so I might keep it enabled just for that. Like you I paid £3.99 for the first month's access but I can't remember if this was one of those "continual until cancelled" arrangements or not. Do you know if that's the case or was it a payment that you had to remember to make each month?

[stoop]

Away at the moment but once I get home I'm going to re-install xbmc as they have had a major overall. Have you received the email from them? If not I'll try and post it later when I get more Internet time. Shopping now:(

[stoop]

Try this. Not sure if it will help with Offsidestreams though - might even delete it for good. Or join the xbmc hub forum and try to find out if Mikey1234 is going to add it back again.

Some misleading info getting given out here

Firstly if your after OSS its not on Xbmchub, you need to change over to Xbmc chat- best to log onto and sign up for their forum.

OSS is not operated by Mickey he just  created the add on.

Its operated by CDNSPRINGS.COM, and is £ 4.99 a month ( though you could pay around 20p more as its priced in US dollars and some ccs charge conversion)

Can thoroughly recommend it BUT a decent download speed is definitely needed. Oss has all Sky plus Bt Sports, Espn as well as all Al Jaz Sport, Bein Sport, Fox Sport Nbc Sport etc giving you all usual fball plus a choice of around 5 live 3 pm games on a Sat
