Certain streamed videos not being cached? - nickolasj80 - 2007-09-26
When I try and view certain videos on TvLinks or Youtube, some are not caching, which will cause the video to lock up a few seconds after it starts to play, as a result the whole xbox locks up.
I have checked my cache settings and set them all to 2560 KB or better, so this is no the problem.
Any ideas why some videos are not caching?

whole box should never lock up. the no caching happens because it's using dvdplayer instead.

If you are using Youtube2 you just need to change the default.py code from
self.player = xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER)
to
self.player = xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_MPLAYER)
For TV links you are perhaps best using Unbehagens version (the one with PM3 skin) which has a download feature using the context menu (white button) or Info button on remote.
