[REQUEST] iDesiTV.com (Internet Desi TV) plugin or script - desiking911 - 2007-12-22

Sup all I am trying to help out a friend who building owner won’t let him put a dish up
I was wondering if any one has a script that I can use to pick up Stream from this site http://www.idesitv.com/index.php please help if you can thank you.Laugh

I am very new to these things, but here is something I tried
that worked in a small way. I went to idesitv.com, played one
of the channels, and got the stream info from some commercial
software I have:

http://wm50.bestmediahost.com/idesitv.com-starone-sdksdbjshb3s3?WMContentBitrate=400000

I pasted this into a file I called "starone.strm"
This playes perfectly in xbmc.
The trouble is, I don't know how to get the stream info
from the browser without using this commercial stream capture
app. It must be simple, maybe someone else will help us.
And, this is only channel-by-channel.

There is also a script development utility which might help:

@desiking911 http://www.idesitv.com has changed their website, did you succeed to get this to work with XBMC ?
the stream is now hided in their php code for example http://www.idesitv.com/sony.php

Thanks,

Rafiek

Sorry, Rafiek, I did not look at this issue since my last post.
The only thing I can offer you right now is a set of TV streams
I found many months ago. I don't know if it will be useful to you,
but I have had a lot of fun with it. Here it is:

It would be easy to add the StarOne .strm file as described in my
last post, if it is still working.

In case anyone is interested,

I have made a video plugin. This means unzip to xbmc\plugins\video and then add it as a source.

It was a great way to understand how plugins work and how surprisingly easy it is!


- EvilDude - 2008-01-09

(I think the forums broke... nfi how my post became #1 in the thread :S ) but yes, check the first post for details on the script.


great! - the_optimist - 2008-01-09

Fantastic. I'll have a look ASAP.

Great! Why not now join the XBMC-Addons project on Google Code?, or at least submit your plugin to them

no connection to network server - the_optimist - 2008-01-10

So far I am getting only 'no connection to network server.'
I just added it as a video plugin in the standard way.
Haven't had any time to investigate further ...
Anyone else having any better luck?


- rafiek - 2008-01-11

Can someone confirm if the file of EvilDude works?
It would be great to see it working, i can not test it right now, because me internet is down (cancelled), hope to be on the net begin feb.

http://www.idesitv.com is using a .php address and not an IP-adress anymore.

The site itself is not working for half the channels, but for the other channels (B4U movies / music for example) show up fine in XBMC and play fine too.

Is there any better sites work more consistently?


- a7n9 - 2008-01-15

I am looking for a solution on this too. You can easily find out the streams using firefox extensions (I use download embedded) to find the streams from bhejfry.net (they mirror stuff from iDesiTv). I have already made a list of some of the streams. Can anyone post an easier solution, please?


thank you - the_optimist - 2008-01-16

for the tip about download embedded. I used it to get the following stream url
from bhejafry.net:
http://208.53.158.32/idesitv.com-starone-sdjskjdnk33sdw?WMContentBitrate=400000

I put this url in VideoLAN's VLC and it played perfectly.
This means that xbmc will play the stream if it is placed
in a file with the suffix .strm. It would be easy to make
such a file for each of the approx ten channels.

Unfortunately, it may turn out that the urls change from time to time.
Parsing the web page would likely be possible in python, but I haven't yet
learned python programming. Yet. Can't be that hard ...


- vinny75 - 2008-01-22

For what is worth, all I had to do was click VIEW SOURCE once the php link is opened in a browser. I was then able to get the URL of the actual stream within the source code. Placed is as a strm file as posted in this thread..Worked just fine...

Here is a url I saw within the source code for starplus

http://208.53.158.32/idesitv.com-starplus-sdkjsdkjskn3d?WMContentBitrate=400000

http://rapidshare.com/files/85758962/iDesiTV.rar.html I made a bunch of m3u files, just upload them into your videos folder, and open them like a regular video file. Some of the channels don't work because, the source is dead probably. Its easy to make these kind of files, all you do is open the file in notepad and change the source links.
