Watchnixtoons2 0.14.23 not working

WatchNixtoons2 v0.14.23 – Playback failing / embed.wcostream.com timeout

Hey, I’m having a playback issue with WatchNixtoons2 v0.14.23 and wanted to see if this is a known issue or if there’s something else I should try. The add-on itself works normally when browsing. I can open shows, seasons, and episode lists, but when I select an episode I get: “WatchNixtoons2 error”

“Playback failed. One or more items failed to play.” The Kodi log shows the failure happening while resolving the episode: requests.exceptions.ConnectTimeout HTTPSConnectionPool(host='embed.wcostream.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded Connection to embed.wcostream.com timed out. (connect timeout=10) It then says: Playlist Player: skipping unplayable item Things I have already tried:

Updated/installed WatchNixtoons2 v0.14.23 Tried all three source domains:

wcostream.tv wcoflix.tv wcoforever.net

Confirmed those main sites load in a web browser Tried multiple shows/episodes Tried the “Use HTTP stream instead of HTTPS” option Restarted Kodi The error still points to embed.wcostream.com timing out on port 443

The HTTP option also didn’t change the error — Kodi still attempts to connect to embed.wcostream.com over HTTPS before the playback fails. Is embed.wcostream.com currently having an issue, or has WCO changed the embed/player domain or resolving method? I can provide more of the Kodi log if needed. Thanks!

edit: So update, WNT2 on my hotspot works fine but on my Wi-Fi it does not and the wcostream server also works on phone data but gives error 403 on my phone when on Wi-Fi. 

What is the fix if wcostream is possibly temporarily blocking my ip due to multiple previous failed attempts?

Watchnixtoons2 not working

I use kodi app on my xbox one x and since 08/14 watchnixtoons2 has not been working for me on any shows from Naruto Pt1 dub to The All Devouring Whale and I have tried updating and all the things and there is still this error with no kind of resolution or fix on my end needed. I tried switching through all domains, wcoflix.tv, wcostream.tv, and wcoforever.net, and also using http instead of https settings and nothing. For Avatar and Demon Slayer movie it gives me a weird message about not being a ”premium user”.
Yes I tried quitting and opening the app, yes I tried power cycling my xbox.

Current version through The Crew Repo 0.14.23.

The Crew and all other addons are updated as of today, 08/17 as well. Other addons like ScrubV2 work perfectly fine, its just WNT2

Update: Otaku addon isnt working either for Whale Anime or even Jobless Reincarnation. Not log, just freezes.

Please help, this is how I watch anime.
