Creating a .strm for things like live.deadmau5.com? - DoctorDyna - 2012-11-24
Hey guys. I'm curious if anyone has figured out a way to get streaming content like what you see at live.deadmau5.com to be able to be played in xbmc, or what the best way to figure out how to go about doing it?
I figure I can use a .strm file, but I'm not sure.
Has anyone done this?

Im not familiar with that site (or any for that fact) but if its something you have a direct link to its simple. Grab the link>create a filename.strm and paste the link inside.
see http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Internet_video_and_audio_streams
If you dont have the direct link you wont be able to do it I dont think.
It looks like its youtube stuff, there is a youtube addon for XBMC http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:YouTube

try putting this into a plain text file and saving it as something.strm
Code:

Thanks guys!
When I try that link, it says "can't find a next item to play"
Could it be possible that's only because it's not currently playing anything?

I'm assuming that it will only work when something is playing. I didn't see anything playing via my browser on the website itself, so I'm guessing the stream isn't transmitting anything yet.

Yeah, he only streams when he's sitting around at home.
I'll give it a shot when it's on next. Thanks guys
