I don't know how far you are with scraping but I made a small gadget for Google Desktop and am using the following URL to get a list of all series on hulu.com:

Code:
http://r.hulu.com/shows.xml?only=id,name&videos_count_gt=0&type[]=clip&type[]=episode&hide_expired=true&sort=name&items_per_page=500

You can play around with the parameters to get more/less information.
i have the latest Atlantis build and i cant seem to get this to play either. I have the .2 release of this plugin and when i opened the Fringe folder nothing was there. Rebooted the box and they were there but none of them would play. Not sure if there is something somewhere that needs to be configured but i cant get it to play.

Burncycle Wrote:The latest T3CH build has it

The only T3CH build for xbox that I've been able to find is dated 12-07.

Is xbmc on xbox dead? I don't have visual studio 2003, so I cannot build it myself.
If the latest t3ch has full RTMP, then does anyone know why I am having problems with this and other plugs that use RTMP? I am running the 12/7 SVN build, so its as recent as there is.

To the poster above me, the date 12/7 doesn't mean December 2007, it means December 7, 2008. XBMC is far from dead on the xbox . . .
Zoltar-

I made an addition to the default.py script. It's based off the 0.1 version. It has two new arrays. 1) for building a menu of choices: "Shows" and "Movies". 2) An array of all the movies.

Quite honestly, I don't know jack crap about python. It feels very finicky to me compared to C#. For some reason when I tried to reuse the addShow function it would bomb. When I cloned that method and gave it a new name everything worked. So, my code is probably not ideal... but it works. Hopefully someone else with more knowledge can refine the idea more.

Yeah, 12-7-08, but still, t3ch's site says to not expect updates often. The 12-07 version does not have the recent patches that were checked in recently to fix these issues.

Guys, read the thread....

2008-12-07 t3ch DOES have RTMP support. There are some problems with the streams freezing on the last frame, it doesn't have that, plus it does not have whatever zoltar has submitted/reported, but it does work.

I'm using it right now to watch family guy.

It would be more helpful if you told us exactly which streams aren't working.

The Office, whose urls seem to have the embedded semicolons in the url, which the patch mentioned earlier seems to address. I pasted my error earlier in the thread, but here goes again:

24 and Family Guy seem good. 30 Rock does not work, like the Office above:

If anyone can give me hints on where I might find someone with daily svn builds for the xbox, I'd be grateful. I've got access to VS 2005 but not VS 2003 unfortunately, so I can't build this on my own. Unless there is some other way of building it (the google has failed to find me any alternative build methods.)

thanks!
is three sheets working for anyone
zoltar, have you compiled to see if your fix in post #1 works? it looks like you just truncate the string at the ';' which we can do in python, but that doesn't work... unless I missed something and you're doing more?

I posted a win32 build, are you wanting an xbox build?
Sorry, I saw your post but somehow I missed the fact that you added the patch.

If you can compile I'd like an xbox build yeah... I don't have necessary stuff.

Sorry I don't have the tools for an xbox build Sad
