- hught78 - 2010-12-28 09:49 Anyone have any luck yet on the AppleTV? I'm still getting the script error when opening my instant queue. Also, when do I enter my Netflix credentials?
- divajess - 2010-12-28 10:25 I am also having Apple TV issues. I changed the path for the browser to where my Firefox install under NitoTV lives, but it won't launch the browser and allow me to connect the add-on with my account. Any help would be great! Thanks. - fekker - 2010-12-29 20:29 I'm working on the next rev, if anyone wants to test it out, it's adding support for the Disc queue items, it will also generate the .xml's as needed for the OS I can't test with OSX, apple tv and Vista so any feedback on those would be good as well as all other OS's. For OSX users, be sure that the first thing you do after install is open the add-on settings and select the OSX option. You can grab the zip from here https://github.com/spudsdude/XBMC-Flicks/zipball/master When you first choose the items (like Instant Queue) it should open a web page that will prompt you to login/approve the app to netflix. In xbmc you'll see a dialog that says to click "ok" after that step is done.. that associates it with your netflix account. - Quackmeister - 2010-12-30 00:19 First of all, great work. This plugin eliminated my one reason for keeping boxee around. However, I have been trying to make this work for the better part of an hour and have had no luck with a persistent problem. It is probably just a rookie mistake but here goes: 1. I added the code you provided to the two xml files. There is a lot of other stuff in my <rules> and <players> sections in the playercore file, but I just ignore them and add your code at the top. The two xmls are attached at the bottom of this post. 2. I installed the plugin from the XBMC.org repo. 3. I launch the plugin and click on "Instant Queue" 4. An IE window pops up, asking for the username and password of my netflix account so xbmcflix can be authorized 5. Netflix successfully authorizes my account and asks if Id like to go to netflix.com home 6. I say yes, then close the browser window. 7. I return to xbmc and there is a pop up window saying "loading directory" with a progress bar at the bottom 8. The progress bar hangs at 0 items, and xbmc crashes if I hit cancel. I have reinstalled the plugin multiple times, and believe that the problem is in the xml files. Can you help me out here? also, sorry for the long post but I wanted to give as much info as possible. ANyway, here are the xml files: playercorefactory.xml <playercorefactory> <players> <player name="IE" type="ExternalPlayer"> <filename>c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe</filename> <args>-k "{1}"</args> <hidexbmc>false</hidexbmc> <hideconsole>false</hideconsole> <warpcursor>none</warpcursor> </player> <!-- These are compiled-in as re-ordering them would break scripts The following aliases may also be used: audiodefaultplayer, videodefaultplayer, videodefaultdvdplayer <player name="DVDPlayer" audio="true" video="true" /> <player name="DVDPlayer" /> placeholder for MPlayer <player name="PAPlayer" audio="true" /> --> </players> <rules name="system rules" action="prepend"> <rule name="html" filetypes="html" player="IE" /> <rule name="rtv" protocols="rtv" player="DVDPlayer" /> <rule name="hdhomerun/myth/rtmp/mms/udp" protocols="hdhomerun|myth|cmyth|rtmp|mms|mmsh|udp" player="DVDPlayer" /> <rule name="lastfm/shout" protocols="lastfm|shout" player="PAPlayer" /> <!-- dvdplayer can play standard rtsp streams --> <rule name="rtsp" protocols="rtsp" filetypes="!(rm|ra)" player="PAPlayer" /> <!-- Internet streams --> <rule name="streams" internetstream="true"> <rule name="flv/aacp/sdp" mimetypes="video/x-flv|video-flv|audio/aacp|application/sdp" player="DVDPlayer" /> <rule name="mp2" mimetypes="application/octet-stream" filetypes="mp2" player="PAPlayer" /> </rule> <!-- DVDs --> <rule name="dvd" dvd="true" player="videodefaultdvdplayer" /> <rule name="dvdfile" dvdfile="true" player="videodefaultdvdplayer" /> <rule name="dvdimage" dvdimage="true" player="videodefaultdvdplayer" /> <!-- Only dvdplayer can handle these normally --> <rule name="sdp/asf" filetypes="sdp|asf" player="DVDPlayer" /> <!-- Pass these to dvdplayer as we do not know if they are audio or video --> <rule name="nsv" filetypes="nsv" player="DVDPlayer" /> </rules> </playercorefactory> and the advancedsettings.xml, which is in XBMC\userdata (I had to create this file) <advancedsettings> <videoextensions> <add>.html</add> </videoextensions> </advancedsettings> Oh and I am running Dharma final on winXP 32 bit and the above problem happens with every option, not just "my queue - ALL" Also, a browser pops up every time I retry, asking me to authorize xbmcflix with my netflix account. - fekker - 2010-12-30 01:05 Code: First of all, great work. This plugin eliminated my one reason for keeping boxee around.At this point there should be a dialog that tells you to restart the plugin (in 1.0.8) or restart xbmc (in the dev branch code) what it's doing is writing that information to the userinfo.txt file make sure you have read/write permissions to that folder and that the file is not read only You should be able to delete that file and it'll recreate it (starting with 1.0.7 version) here's what I recommend delete the userinfo.txt file create a new empty file there try it again put the plugin into debug mode if it still fails and pastebin the log for inspection - fekker - DLJones - 2010-12-30 17:50 Hey fekker Thanks for this plug in I ask for it during Beta testing for windows and mac users and glad you did it, I have it working on XP and Win 7 32bit but for some reason on Win 7 it is choppy but not on XP. I open the task manager and found XBMC is using 38 - 40% of CPU resources while netflix is playing is this normal? Also I rather use FIREFOX since netflix runs better in firefox then IE 8.0 but cannot get it to work so I assume I need to make a change more then just the path location. dj - skgruy - 2010-12-30 17:59 Sorry if this has already been addressed but will this work on an atom/ion (eg Revo 3619) or is the atom not powerful enough? - Dondoko - 2010-12-30 22:02 Fekker, I just wanted to say thank you for making this excellent addon! So many people here have been waiting for something like this for such a long time. Is it alright if I make a couple requests? How hard do you think it would be to add a "browse genre" option? Once I enter into the search feature of your addon, the arrow keys on my remote no longer work. Are you (yourself) able to select your letters for the search using your remote's four arrow keys? Sometimes using alt-F4 to forcefully shut down the NetFlix window causes it to hang in the system memory, not allowing another NetFlix video window to be opened. Is there a "safer" (more reliable) way to turn off the NetFlix window when using the default IE window? Thanks! - Don System: Windows 7 x64 Pro, 2x6GB RAM, ATI Fire Pro v8700 1GB, using this remote - fekker - 2010-12-30 22:44 For the atom question, i'm running it on a celeron 430 single core, so i would think it would be fine. To use firefox, change the path and remove the argument that put's it in fullscreen (-k) from the args section. browse genre is in there for the top 25 disc's, that comes from a netflix rss feed. other genre searching is pending the update to the version 2.0 api from netflix so i can do it in a big request (there's limits for the number of calls to the api) I have the same problem with searching, the arrows don't work, this is something in xbmc itself as I just call the dialog, prob best to ask that one in general help. If you use the ie wrapper, you can exit with F10, which will close IE properly. I have the same issue with alt+f4 (which is what my remote's close options does) as your having. if in fullscreen, send ESC then F10 I'm planning on working on the wrapper some more, but it's proving difficult to get around silverlights hooks when it's in full screen. - rainmaker002 - 2010-12-30 23:51 Hi Fekker, What do you need in order to trouble shoot getting this plugin to work in Canada? I live here, have a netflix subscription, and can view videos using Silverlight so I'd be happy to send logs or what not. |
