play changing asx files in xbmc - EZ1976 - 2012-06-07
Hi all.
i am trying to get a way to play asx files under xbmc.
i know i need to open them in notepad, get the mms: url and put in a .strm file.
the problem is that the asx files changes all the time. i have the main url which generate the asx file but unless i update the strm file every hour it is no good to me.
my main goal is to have it play under psuedotv and have my main 3 channels (in israel) stream over the net rather than use the louse dvb-t broadcast (which is very very weak in israel).
i am using openelec so the use of an external media player (in advancesettings.xml) wont work.
i tried putting the main url which generate the asx files into the xml file used with the livestreams plugin but it cant play it.
thank you in advance for all your help

You could write an add-on that reads the asx file and parses it to extract the stream.

if i knew how to write plug ins i think that would be my first choice.
as far as i know its called dynamic asx.
each time you open the stream the asx changes,

Hi
any idea how i can get this little project going?
i need a plugin that can download an asx file, extract a mms link from it and put in another strm file.
that way i can have live tv streaming in my xbmc
