Internet TV integrated with the PVR - akr884 - 2011-03-23 14:36
Sorry to double post, in this thread and in the other Internet TV thread, but:
It would be pretty awesome if this could be integrated with the PVR add-on, having the internet live streams show up as channels.
I'm (very slowly) learning how to code, so I can't really offer to help now, but Dushmaniac, who's developing the PVR add-on said he thought it was interesting if there is anyone in this thread willing to give it a shot.

Amazing Plugin so far ... i'll add the complete stream url's for wilmaa tv soon ...
for now just as example for testing Sf1, Sf2 and SfInfo:
PHP Code:
<item>
<title>SF1</title>
<link>http://gartenhof.live1-f.akamaihd.net/sf1_1_800@43046</link>
<thumbnail>None</thumbnail>
</item>
<item>
<title>SF2</title>
<link>http://gartenhof.live1-f.akamaihd.net/sf2_1_800@43048</link>
<thumbnail>None</thumbnail>
</item>
<item>
<title>SF Info</title>
<link>http://gartenhoflive4-f.akamaihd.net/sfinfo_1_800@45505</link>
<thumbnail>None</thumbnail>
</item>
EDIT: Just noticed stream stopps after a few seconds ... i'll have to take a look closer ...
EDIT2: Sorry just found this:
+===== BROKEN ============================================================
+= Unfortunately, the watchwilmaa (also the recordwilmaa) script is
+= currently broken. This is due to a protocol change on the
+= wilmaa servers. It seems they switched to a flow control protocol
+= based on HTTP. The client is expected to send regular POST requests
+= to the server to keep the stream going. More info may be found in
+= in this document:
+= http://c3lab.poliba.it/images/d/d8/Akamai_wima2010.pdf
+= If I find the time and if it is not overly complicated, I'll try
+= to find a way to implement that new protocol. Don't expect it to
+= happen too soon, though.
+===== BROKEN ============================================================

Yes most of the 'akamaihd.net' links require this kind of handshaking to ensure that you are streaming from the dedicated home page (and reading the ads) instead of using a dedicated streaming client like VLC or XBMC plugin.

Excellent job, Divingmule. I like how it makes it easier to administrate the order of stations too. Awesome.

Yes, they changed something recently as i know it worked before with vlc. That's really a shame ... There is no way to simulate a handshake within vlc or xbmc ?

Please help me with how to use these live stream URL's for the plugin. For future some tutorial of how to convert different stream URL's e.g. .swf to comply with this plugin will be helpful.

If it plays video you have a good link to be inserted into 'Live Links'. So in the case of the links you've provided only the first one plays for me. You can just leave it as this... I have a folder dedicated to .strm files.

If you want them in the 'Live Links' plugin you have to edit the file live_streams.xml in C:\Documents and Settings\User_name\AppData\Roaming\XBMC\addons\plugin.video.live.streams (this path is for win/7 users) and insert:
<item>
<title>AMS 1 India TV</title>
<link>mms://ams01.egihosting.com/ExpressEnglish</link>
<thumbnail>http://www.amsindia.in/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/logo-trans.png</thumbnail>

The thumbnail link was linked to an image I found using Google.

Divingmule, I hope you have an HDHomerun to test this with; your add-on doesn't seem to differentiate between program numbers. Example:
hdhomerun://1020B1BB-0/tuner0?channel=qam256:669000000&program=1
hdhomerun://1020B1BB-0/tuner0?channel=qam256:669000000&program=7
Livestreams shows the first channel every time. Not so when not using Livestreams.
Edit: just noticed that if I use "hdhomerun://1020B1BB-0/tuner0?channel=qam256:669000000" (without "&program=1") it picks up the first feed. Is there any way to have Livestreams respect the program number?

This is what I have found that works on ATV2 State Side.
All of these I have found on the forum and put them in my xml. These are the ones that work for me on ATV2. Nothing that starts with mms works for me. This is also in Alphabetical order cause of my OCD.

Didn't post my entire XML cause Don't want to clutter up the board too much. But like I said, this is what works for me on ATV2. I couldn't figure out CNN and CSPAN from the other live add-on.. This is my very first attempt at messing with any sort of coding.
Edit to add: If someone wants the whole thing to Copy & Paste, PM me and I'll give it to you.
