As the song said: How Bizarre ...


I just tried ONE which worked perfectly, I switched to NEWS - ok. Back to ONE which was now desynced again ...

Sadly didn't have debug on.

Looking at the normal log - the stream urls on both occasions are exactly the same.

No response to my bug report.

I'm starting to manually include some of the popular non-xbmc.org repo add-ons on the XBMC Wiki:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:IPlayer

Feel free to do what you want (within reason) with that page. You can even make subpages by adding a slash to the url. For example:

http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=Add-on:IPlayer/changelog

Drop me a message if anyone needs help with wiki editing. Anyone can edit, just register on the wiki and you're good to go (page creation requires an account that is a few days old and has made five edits).

I just rolled back to a nightly pre-Eden from end of November. ONE still out of sync.

So, does this suggest that the stream format has changed in some subtle way which throws the player into a fit? The random nature of the error is perplexing.

I'd be grateful if other users could test and report back - BBC ONE live, Limelight and 480 stream.

no reponse as funnily enough, I have a job, plus I work on many other "free" projects in my spare time.

sounds like one of the cdns is dodgy.

limelight uses round robin dns and returns a couple of ips for the bbc stuff, so it could be one of them isn't working as it should.

Sorry! I wasn't implying any criticism.

cheers

im just a bit overworked/overtired and busy at the moment which makes me a grumpy dev Smile


- castalla - 2012-01-10

Understood ... take a breather!

cheers

Another episode of ONE suddenly synced - on several separate attempts, then just as mysteriously reverted back to desync!

posted this in the itv player thread too, i am running eden and 4od itv player and now iplayer all do the same thing they launch but will play like a second sometimes or other times not at all and are all paused and i am unable to unpause.

I player had always just worked for me until now, so I haven't played with any of the settings, however I probabaly should look into them now.

What is the best, or recommended stream to use for Eden on Linux? Or what do people find the most reliable?

TIA

got a message from castalla that the live streams now worked that didnt. I think it was just a case of limelight for the bbc with a roundrobin dns, and one of the servers was just broken. now it is fixed and all is well.

blah blah drunken ramble that people can read their email notification version Smile
