YouTube Plugin

[whurlston]

Here is a new build.

Changelog:

1. Fixed settings not being reloaded after updating.
   
2. Fixed issue with retrieving single videos.
   
3. Updated trailer feeds.
   
4. Now clears the popup and displays a message if there was a problem with retrieving a feed.
   
5. The v=2 parameter should now be automatically added if it is not present in a custom url.
   
6. Added ability to edit Custom URLs. When clicking the delete button on the Custom URL settings, the item will be removed from the list and placed in the entry boxes. This will allow you to edit them and add them back if you wish.
   
7. Added ability to reorder Custom URLs.
   

The last two will be extended to the other feeds lists in version 2.0

Legend!

Thank you whurlston, these changes are really really great and it works!
I have to play around with the buffer settings as HD vids seem to be a bit jerky, but normal ones work just fine.

Excellent stuff!

Cheers again

I downloaded this .zip but it just says that it cannot download the list, am I missing some files?

[whurlston]

You shouldn't be. That zip included all files necessary for the plugin. Do no lists work or only a particular list? Pressing the left arrow will take you to the menu where you can select another list.

Also, zip and post your NPVR.log (or mvp.log if using an NMT) and I'll see if I can figure out what's going on.

Somehow everything corrected itself by a reboot, the plugin is working just fine now. Have you thought about developing it further, like giving the user the opportunity to select different categories etc? I would very much welcome a TV3Play/TV4Play/ViaPlay plugin, it should not take much work to adapt it (http://www.tv3play.no|.se|.dk to test).

I can add that.

I can't find an API for those sites so there would really be no way to adapt the YT plugin to work with them. I would need to scrape the web pages which is very different that working with an API. It can be done but I wouldn't be able to do it (I just don't have the time).

Any chance you can have a peek at the code used in XBMC's plugin for TV3Play?

[whurlston]

What am I looking for? Is it just to see if I could convert their code? If I were to write the plugin (which again, I just don't have the time), it would be easier and faster for me to do it from scratch than to try to convert it from C/Python.

Just a suggestion, no hassle.

Hmmm... no joy....

After changing both settings to true, I ran on PC, then NMT.

Unfortunately while I can see the file grow in the buffer, which it did not do before, song plays, but jumps out after about 20secs, on both.

Changing buffer to false on the PC works fine again (which I did in between the PC and NMT runs).

Hi whurlston.
I still have problems playing feeds on the PC - works with NO buffer, but stutters terribly - jumps out WITH the buffer set to true??
(attached xml set back to false).
