Vtm go does not work. Is there again an API update or something?

[trick72]

Since yesterday, going into the plugin gives error message. (unauthorised access to all the URL')
Usually this means they done (again) an API update. Can someone please check? Thanks!

in the log: AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'product'
grrrrrr...

[Jerry911]

In util.py this needs to be updated

'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/21.250624 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20529; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',
To
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/21.250820 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20735; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',

and also

if token: headers['Authorization'] = token

Needs to be changed to

if token: headers['Authorization'] = 'Bearer ' + token

It looks like they finally implemented jwt correctly.
You will also need to refresh the token json file (remove it and re authenticate)

Keeps giving an error

I unzipped the 21.250624 version, changed the lines as indicated by jerry911, and zipped it, then removed tokens in addon>settings>expert>"verwijder authenticatietokens", next remove addon, restart kodi, install from the zip i just created, and everything works! Thanks @Jerry911

Where can I get the 21.250624 version? i wanted to apply the patch to my installed version but that is still 1.4.4 and the api in there is 15.23102:
`
SESSION.headers = {
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/15.231023 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:18041; Android 23) okhttp/4.11.0',
'x-app-version': '15',
'x-persgroep-mobile-app': 'true',
'x-persgroep-os': 'android',
'x-persgroep-os-version': '28',
}

`

Thanks @Jerry911,

I followed issue #405 earlier, somewhere there is a link to a version 21.250624, from earlier versions there will always be the login issue discussed in #405

[ErwinBaeyens]

Might not be a bad idea to make a new release that has all the stuff from #405 and so on already in it. It would be easier for people to start looking at the code and they may even be encouraged to start working on it if it does not look like it is completely abandoned.
Which is suggested by the 2024 release date of the current version 1.4.4
Even if that new release is labeled as being a beta.

[esjay90]

Ok, found the things I did wrong and got it working. Thank you for finding out!

I did the changes as described by Jerry, but it runs into errors.
Any chance in getting a working zip or updated release?

[PeterCloet]

Got it working on my RPi5 running LibreElec 12.0.2.
plugin.video.vtm.go-api-21.250820.zip.

Shame that the add-on is becoming less useful as VTM is moving most of its programmes to VTMGo+ :-(

[Warsnake2]

@PeterCloet Thank you very much! Your zip works great.
I agree it's a shame that VTMGo+ will make the add-on less useful, but luckily the few shows I watch on VTM still work.

[Firomanio]

on the vtmgo+ subject, has anyone tried if the plugin keeps working if you have an active Go+ subscription on the account you login with?

I have not tried it with the addon. But it's an account thing so when you try to play something the servers check if your account is allowed to play it (so check if you paid for go+). So my bet is if you have go+ it will work / play go+ videos.

In my setup it worked without any extra coding last time I tried it but that's a while ago, I refuse to pay for content that I already paid for through taxes, cable subscription and by watching ads.
