Popeye Wrote:My plugin contains 4 independent functions; Site listing, SAB communication, rar parsing and playing of incomplete rar sets. Personally, if XBMC had supported it (and it partially does), I would have implemented these functions as stand alone plugins for others to use in their implementation.
I guess you could do a torrent or rapidshare player using my method of playing incomplete rar without copying the code and just use a simple api call (as I do with youtube and Vimeo in my radbox plugin).

I created and lifted out nzb.su as a example for others to develop their own site support and to separate the site development from the core functions. I also don't want to spend time on things that don't interest me...
I understand your point of view and will look into if there is some way of creating a "service" plugin so we could get rid of the unnecessary plugins in the UI...

CrashX Wrote:I worked on the following fixes and it seems to be working:
- Merge back nzb.su into it ( Fixes hang issue at end of playback )
- Filter out sample.avi from rar file
- Delete nzb from queue/history after movie was done/stopped. Originally it was always in queue.

Issues still to address:
- It seems that after xbmc playback of first rar is done, it doesn't continue on to second rar file. It actually stop playback now. Any ideas ? Download isn't stopeed though and second rar file is downloaded ?
- We need to put the size of download in title to know how big it is.
- Any reason why list_incomplete(params) & listFile(nzbname) contains similar code ? Would it better to split into a common function that both functions can call ?
- Instead of writing another plugin, we should abstract out RSS URL for each site. User selects site ( nzbmatrix, nzb.org, nzb.su, etc ) and key and number of results. ie

Movies:- <SITEURL>?dl=1&i=<SITEID>&r=$KEY&num=$NUMRESULTS&
Tv Shows:- <SITEURL>?dl=1&i=<SITEID>&r=$KEY&num=$NUMRESULTS&

We can also use this information to set the content.

All that works just fine. But if I select the NZBS icon it takes me to the incomplete folder and I can see the movies that is being downloaded. If I click on the movie, I thought it might let me watch it, it starts the time for view countdown again, even if half the download is complete.

Nevermind, it was a bad download, I just copied your text and put it in manually and now it works somewhat, the download works but the stream doesnt start, its give me an error.

Why filter out? I have a fix for displaying all files if more than one..
Delete is in the incomplete folder context menu of the movies file. Will move it out to the incomplete first listing and a 'delete all' option
Size in listing is on the todo...
The two different listing is due to the two completely different approaches of accessing the files. I have made some simplifications in the code and I think its in the repo...

I have quite limited time to code and will focus on getting core functions to work. If you want extended site support and UI chrome please go ahead and fork and/or contribute

CrashX Wrote:Displaying all files is a better fix ... I just wanted a quick for now ...
Any ideas why it stops after first rar ?
Should we delete everything after we are done watching movie ?

Popeye Wrote:If the rar is corrupted or the download is to slow?
The 7byte rars should all be deleted once the movie starts playing but we dont need to touch the others.

BTW, to all who has crashes with nzb.su, what skin are you using?
