I guess I'll need to do that with SageTCPServer and the Media Streaming plugin, since dropbox isn't cutting it anymore...

BTW, with all those hosting sites having issues, are we sure it's not SageTV that's to blame instead?

Well for the dropbox box issue, I wrote a simply Java test stub, about 5 lines of code, and I submitted to them, which clearly shows the issue.

For the GitHub and the SF issues... it may be a sagetv issue on how it's calculating the md5sums... or, maybe during download the .zip that you update isn't the same file that is being downloaded (ie, somehow modified by github/sf). I haven't spent much time investigating this part. But, even if it is a Sage issue... it's not going to get fixed

SF is intermittent, I imagine. I installed a bunch of my plugins on a test system last night and though slow, they all worked, including the ones from SF. So I'm guessing there's some kind of ongoing issue with SourceForge right now and I'd expect it to be fixed in relatively short order -- they're usually pretty good about that.

You need to bump the version number.

Yeah, I was afraid of that, as that means digging up the project somewhere on an old machine...

Ever got a reply, acknowledgement, bug report ID or something we could mention in follow up emails to put more pressure?

You can pull the manifest from the SageTVPlugins.xml file in the Sage install directory (assuming you still have Sage installed.) All you need to do is update the URL, bump the version number and resubmit the plugin.

OK thanks, that seems to have worked for the first plugin, so moving on to the second...
