NFL Game Pass/Rewind Kodi Plugin

version 0.7.1 — Brian Urlacher Edition

Before reading any further, please understand that while this addon does work, not all features are supported (or fully tested) and it should be regarded as a beta release. It may crash, spay your puppy, and/or cause your oven to not heat to 400° F properly. The addon is under development, and needs a whole lot of love.

If you're interested in helping out, just drop us an email or send a pull request. Patches and (constructive) input are always welcome.

Any Dependencies?

This addon requires Kodi Helix or later. XBMC Gotham and earlier are no longer supported due to upstream changes in the skinning system.

Now that this addon is part of the official Kodi repository, all dependencies are installed automatically. However, if you're installing straight from source, make sure the following two dependencies are installed:

What is NFL Game Pass?

NFL Game Pass is website that allows those of us outside of the US (or with IPs outside of the US ;-) to watch NFL games. Archives of old games stretch back to 2009, coaches film (22 man view) is available, as is audio from each team's radio network. Overall, it is a sweet service offered by the NFL for those of us who must have our American Football fix.

What is NFL Game Rewind?

NFL Game Rewind is the USA version of Game Pass, but the service is blacked out during live games, and doesn't have access to NFL Network - Live, many of the archived shows, etc.

Why write a plugin for Kodi?

First off, we love Kodi and like consuming media through its interface. Secondly, while there is a nice Flash interface, it's... well... written in Flash. The client is a resource hog, the interface is frequently buggy, and it includes a bunch of bells and whistles (social media, for example) that are simply distracting. We're here to watch a game, nothing else.

What features are currently supported?

By now, most core features are supported.

  • Archived games from 2011 to 2014 (both full and condensed)
  • Live games
  • Coaches Film (22 man view)
  • NFL Network - Live
  • A Football Life
  • NFL Films Presents
  • NFL Gameday
  • Playbook
  • NFL RedZone Archives
  • NFL RedZone - Live
  • Sound FX
  • Super Bowl Archives
  • NFL Total Access

Currently unsupported features:

  • Archived games prior to 2011
  • Alternate team audio
  • Coaches Show
  • Top 100 Players

Release names

Want a release to be named after your player/coach of choice? Contribute to the project in some way (code, art, debugging, beer, brazen — yet effective — flattery, etc), and we'll gladly name a future release after them.

Roadmap

A rough roadmap follows:

  • Continue work towards feature completeness
  • Stabilize Game Rewind support
