And according to the xbmc piracy stance, since it can be used to view my family vacation videos then it should pass
This script does nothing wrong other than resolving links from legal sources no matter your personal opinion of them. Your point on which addons make use of it should have no relevance else my metahandlers script should be removed due to which addons are currently using it, no matter what its greater use could be Ill await the decision Ps. Megaupload was perfectly legal to use, not sure why alarm bells are ringing for you, maybe should read up on the real reason they were taken down and how thousands have lost their perfectly legal data. Let's try and stay away from tin foil hat territory. But due to its current controversy, and the fact that the site is gone, I will remove the megaupload and megavideo resolvers Sent wirelessly from my BlackBerry device. -----Original Message----- From: Zeljko Ametovic <[email protected]> Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2012 15:48:00 To: <[email protected]> Cc: <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Xbmc-addons] [Git Pull] script.module.urlresolver one that rings alarm bells imediatelly is megaupload <https://github.com/Eldorados/script.module.urlresolver/blob/master/lib/urlresolver/plugins/megaupload.py> I will not pull this until it has been discussed internally... you know why you want this in , I know why you need this in... and we both know its not for viewing you family vacation videos. cheers, amet On Sun, Apr 22, 2012 at 7:00 PM, Mike M <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> > wrote: Can you explain how you are deeming these file sharing sites illegal? Examples? I fail to see how you are making this judgement call They all have disclaimers regarding copyright material and do take down reported material as per they're terms of use agreements. Absolutely none of them promote themselves in a way to harbor piracy, it would be instant suicide for any file sharing host to do so I think this is stretching the XBMC vs piracy thing a bit too far, and if you apply it to this - a script module which simply resolves the direct url to a given link - then it should be applied to ANY addon which makes use of a file sharing host Here's some DMCA/Copyright notices: Putlocker - http://www.putlocker.com/page.php?dmca 180Upload - http://180upload.com/pages/dmca.html Vidxden - http://www.vidxden.com/pages/dmca.html Videobb - http://www.videobb.com/dmca.php Videoweed - http://www.videoweed.es/dmca.php Uploadc - http://www.uploadc.com/dmca.html Also this script module can be used to resolve links to ANY file/video hosting site... a blip.tv <http://blip.tv> resolver is about to be created, you don't see this as being useful to anyone? thanks, Mike ---------------- Date: Sun, 22 Apr 2012 13:59:32 +0400 Subject: Re: [Xbmc-addons] [Git Pull] script.module.urlresolver From: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> CC: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> I am not comfortable including this in official repo. Most , if not all, are some form of illegal video sharing sites. none of the addons that use these sites would be accepted in the official repo so I fail to see what the point of this is. anyone else?
