SVN Repo Installer Issue

[chrissezhi]

First, thanks for your help. Any detailed instructions would be great since I will admit a noob here but have great interest in xbmc.

I cannot get any files installed via SVN Repo Installer. It will load items. But for example when I go to load Hulu, it will give me a error - cannot install item. I have copied an excerpt from the log file -

Try version 1.3.x instead of 1.4.

Iam not sure myself but i think 1.4 contains this new "special" paths which are not supported on official builds (the ones you download from main site) but only with latest builds by devs.

Once again just a guess from my side, I went back to 1.3.x after I had same issues you describe and it works fine.

Thanks for the reply.

Ok. Newbie here. Is there any steps to uninstall? Also - where is the download link for the 1.3.x?

Hi,

Just delete the SVN under plugins/programs.
1.3.1 can be downloaded from first post in this thread
