Good afternoon

Two weeks ago I installed Linux Mint 17 64bit Cinnamon Edition. I am unable to install any ppas' via 'Software Sources'. I keep getting 'No JSON object could be decoded' error. I tried these ppas'

xbmc

I was able to install xbmc via th cli with this information from the xbmc website
sudo apt-get install python-software-properties pkg-config
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:team-xbmc/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install xbmc
