add-ons
API22 Update - VTM Go no longer working -> another update?
Here we go again. Hope someone can quickly find the issue and provide a solution.
VTM Go app gives an error: "426 Client Error: Upgrade required for URL https://fvp-api.dpgmedia.net/VTM_GO/my-list" Additional logs: https://paste.kodi.tv/ubisasilev.kodi
Systems where error occurs: RPi5 running LibreElec 12.0.2 (Kodi 21.2.0) PC running Kodi 21.2.0 on Windows 11
Bump. Am I the only one with this issue or is nobody else watching VTM through this add-on anymore?

I experience exactly the same, was hoping someone more familiar with this would pick it up. I suppose we will have to sniff into what's happening in the background if you use the web browser and go to vtmgo, ... perhaps someone can give a hint on how to get started solving issues like this?
I didn' had time to look at it but those it help to change user agent?
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/22.251002 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20852; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',
The url for the api will be different likt the url webbrowser is using like https://www.vtmgo.be/vtmgo/storefront/main/my-list
That at least partially resolves it.
I changed the following in util.py from:
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/21.250820 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20735; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',
'x-app-version': '21',
to:
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/22.251022 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20852; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',
'x-app-version': '22',
Now I can view "My List" and browse the programs but, when I select ANY program, I get the following error message: "This program is not available in the VTM GO catalogue"
The live stream does work. I did remove my access tokens and re-authenticated before testing.
Another bump. ;-) Anyone else have the same issue as me after updating the user agent? Or is this a problem on my machine?
I removed login tokens, removed plugin, restarted libreelec and kodi, then installed from zip the updated version, but no luck, same error as before, but different as @PeterCloet mentioned, I cannot see "mijn lijst" and cannot browse through any list of programs.
@PeterCloet I get the same as you with your change (without renewing access tokens).
My mom has been complaining for a while that VTM Go is broken on her Kodi. Just came to have a look here now that I'm visitin her. Seems there are fixes on fixes on fixes. Am I understanding it correctly that the fixes since July haven't been merged into the master branch here but live on https://github.com/frankdpGH/plugin.video.vtm.go/tree/New_Login and on manual fixes, and that no one has a working version currently?
I think, @bertvandepoel this summary is correct, I'd like to help solving this, but I have no clue how to optain the correct procedures and values/settings, perhaps someone with the knowledge and no time can give some hints to help people with plenty of time figuring this out? the wiki page here is talking about api.vtmgo.be, but this appears to be way outdated...
@bertvandepoel The master branch is no longer being updated as DPG Media indicated to the original developer they don't really appreciate it. So, over time, people just applied the necessary changes to the various files of the add-on and created their own zip-file.
This is the latest zip-file - based on API21: https://github.com/user-attachments/files/22466229/plugin.video.vtm.go-api-21.250820.zip
If you apply this change in util.py (in the zip or on a running system), you end up with a partially working add-on:
'User-Agent': 'VTM_GO/22.251022 (be.vmma.vtm.zenderapp; build:20852; Android 28) okhttp/4.12.0',
'x-app-version': '22',
(I don't want to put an updated zip-file here yet as the above change does not completely solve the issues. Once we get the add-on working again, I'm more than happy to paste an updated version of the zip-file)
Another bump. ;-) Anyone else have the same issue as me after updating the user agent? Or is this a problem on my machine?
HI Peter, I'm having exactly the same error message as you: '"This program is not available in the VTM GO catalogue" I didn't renew my access token, live stream works, but nothin can be streamed from "my list".
no idea if DPG Media is knowingly trying to make it difficult for Kodi users to stream or just doing routine maintenance and trying to upgrade their own services, but it is annoying.
Hi all , API has been changed as the app is more like Netflix GUI. I tried to recover some functionalities in my fork (vtmgo.py): https://github.com/frankdpGH/plugin.video.vtm.go Download zip via the code button. Movies and Shorties are no longer available , replaced by recommendations and searches. Reset first Cache in settings (expert). Please understand that I cannot respond directly to any remarks or requests.
@frankdpGH , as usual, you're a hero! It's amazing how you can keep pace with all these changes... I have a watch on your fork now. I should have looked there in the first place. I won't post a zip-file here as the one on your fork works out of the box. Leaving the issue open so others can still (quickly/easily) find it for the time being.
Kudos!
Yes, tested and working fine. Great job @frankdpGH Really appreciate your efforts!

Update : Menu/recommendations/movies/non-free information in description, check fork
@frankdpGH Checked out the code and you were busy adjusting a lot of changes introduced by DPG. Thanks for that work.
