WebRadio 4.0 pre-wiki release

[Lao Pan]

Thanks for doing the research! for some reason ogg was never a valid type when loading from a csv file. I'm surprised that it worked before. I've updated post one with the fix. It's easy while I keep things in sync.

That sorted the Last Played thanks - It quite probably was an issue before but I hadn't loaded so many Ogg stations one after the other to notice.
I was trying to find why the Opus logo was never used, but I guess that as the streams are always [.opus.ogg] they will always use the Ogg logo - at least they play fine.

My sneaky underhand ploy worked then :p - Thank You Martin

I get an unhandled exception, when I select "Internet Television":

The content of my TVStations.xml is the example you posted above. I thought maybe it was because the two icon images didn't exist (tv.png and vevotv.png), but I copied another .png to those names and it didn't help.

nothing seems very interesting in NPVR.log, just this for two attempts to go into "Internet Television":

I must have cut the wrong example for Vevo. Just remove that stationlist for now.

Martin

[johnsonx42]

yes, that fixes the unhandled exception, thanks.

[mvallevand]

yes, that fixes the unhandled exception, thanks.

Ok I fixed my example, it is a Station not StationList VevoTV is a great example of OTT HD broadcasting if you have the bandwdith

I have been testing your example for Internet TV -

1) Some of the links in the Stationlist work fine but there are a lot of "File Unavailable" etc. I presume that is the nature of the beast?
2) The Vevo TV link chucks me off could that be because I am not in North America? - Although I found a link in the Whuffclee list for it that worked OK.
3) Last Played shows the TV links - but they will not load from there, I always have to go back to the original link in Internet Television.
4) Can we use an XBMC xml file as a StationList similar to:

Code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>

Don't know if any of the stations will stream but it might be worth a go.

Finally
Anyone using Internet TV with the icon packs from the wiki will want this one. (Once you update the wiki version to WebRadio 4.0 I will update the install instructions and put it in the RadioLogo pack)

1) Some of the links in the Stationlist work fine but there are a lot of "File Unavailable" etc. I presume that is the nature of the beast?

You will get many that fail for sure. Bad link and 1 million XBMC users don't help. If you run in Windows in a window on PC the hidden menu has a debug optionand you might see something more detailed. ie mmsh isn't support but you might be able to change those links to rtsp.

Also anything that requires scraping will fail, those are of dubious origin anyway.

2) The Vevo TV link chucks me off could that be because I am not in North America? - Although I found a link in the Whuffclee list for it that worked OK.

Geo-blocking is certainly going to be an issue for several links

3) Last Played shows the TV links - but they will not load from there, I always have to go back to the original link in Internet Television.

That is there to help you find a a link in a plx file, I figured it was easier than logging it.

4) Can we use an XBMC xml file as a StationList similar to:

A plx file should be able to be saved and played from your disk. It is recommended for those that are worried about adult content that might be available when just going via the online lists (also why TVStations.xml is not included in the installer)

Just added the TVFolder png in a zip to the post above - didn't realize the forum turned all images into jpg mush.

[mvallevand]

In the unlikely event that anyone tried Shoutcast with WebRadio and had problems and didn't post, the problem has been resolved. My dev ID wasn't properly moved over on the 17th when the changes from the purchase of Shoutcast from AOL to Radionomy started kicking in.
