Can't watch any episode

[UnderGames420]

I have a problem that all episodes but the pandemic special don't play. I can browse the seasons, but when I choose an episodes it loads but then does nothing.
I wasn't able to upload the log but I did take a picture of it which is attached.

[wargio]

can you tell me these details?

I live in Israel(the us website is working here, tried it on my browser), Geo Location: North America[EN](Also tried UK and DE), with CC. It used to work...

[UnderGames420]

Welp just saw you added a "clear cache" button and now everything seems to work.... I'll let you know if the problem returns

[UnderGames420]

Update: no episodes from seasons 1-8 seems to work

[wargio]

does or does not work? if solved please close the issue.

[UnderGames420]

No, it doesn't.
Yesterday episodes from seasons 9 to 24 worked(seasons 1-8 didn't), but today only specific seasons like 21 and 19 actually play(I did clear the cache)

[wargio]

No, it doesn't.

try with the european streams.

[Elzama]

I have the same issue. I posted a while ago, clearing cache fixed 1 episode, it stopped working after that :/
Only the latest episode plays.

[wargio]

All the streams seems working for the north america.
Please share once again your full configuration.

English north america on 0.6.3 on kodi here.
The episode seems to generally start ok but generally after the intro commercial the video freezes at the the end of the commercial but the south park episode starts so I can then manually switch the video stream from the (h264, 448x252)(1/2) stream to the
(h264, 1920x1080)(2/2) stream.
After I switch the stream the episode stream crashes and if i restart the episode and play from beginning the intro commercial plays and then the south park episode starts playing correctly.

Unfortunatly when the next commercial comes up the south park video freezes and the commercial audio starts but then the south park video doesn't start again and no matter what I do I can't get the video to continue.

Smaller bug is the fast forward and rewind generally kills the stream.

[wargio]

unfortunately i can't fix that bug, because is kodi related. what i could do is removing ads, but requires me parsing m3u8

[beachmiles]

If you could remove the ads that would be amazing and may fix the problem in kodi.

Hello-
I think this may be related to this bug
I live in the united states. Plugin version 0.6.3

Linux kodiarch 5.9.8-arch1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue, 10 Nov 2020 22:44:11 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
\<addon id="plugin.video.southpark_unofficial" name="South Park" version="0.6.3" provider-name="Deroad"\>

my available geolocations are
southpark.py: self.geolocation = ["en", "es", "de", "se", "eu"]

es, en, and eu do not work for most episodes i've tried (pandemic special worked on en but none of the misc other's i've tried do);

The kodi log has this for, example, S19 E08:

@thenextdon13 yes it is related to the same issue as the others. let's say that US is special
