Eden compatibility work has been started - bradvido88 - 2011-11-08 23:17

For those interested, I'm starting to make the needed modifications to this program for Eden compatibility.

So far I've seen some good results. I'm not planning on adding any new features (right now); I'm just updating the interface so it will work with Eden the way it works with Dharma right now...

PS. The interface seems much faster as well.

Nice going!

I personally hate having to go into the actual Videos menu without Library mode. I also hate having things where they don't belong (TV shows under Videos > Addons > UZG). A while ago I hacked together a script that handled this for me, much like you did here. This however had to circumvent a security mechanism which works with tokens for watching video's. I posted it onto the forums but no one jumped on it back then (most likely because of zero documentation available). Maybe you can find a use of my code, albeit inspiration for features or a way to hack things Smile

Edit: Crap. Zippyshare removed it, I'll upload it again when I get home.

Any news on the update for Eden? Crystalbuntu updated their XBMC build to Eden and now it appears that your script is not compatible...

Yeah i've got it working. I just need to put the finishing touches on. I was hoping to test it against eden-b1 when it comes out, but we'll see.

Are you going to post it here or on the googlecode site?

Looking at things, it appears that JSON code implementation changed quite a bit from Dharma to Eden... I am going to try the curl implementation in the meantime to see if it still is applicable...

I'll probably post it on both sites.
Changing to curl won't help you. That just changes the transport. My code has to actually be changed to handle the new responses.

I'll post a release on this as soon as i can and hope that you & others can test and give feedback.

It's been stable for me in my testing for a while, so I figure why not let everyone have their hands on it. See my first post for an Eden-compatible version and please give feedback.

How to upgrade:
#1 - Wipe out your current streaming files dropbox. (They will all be re-created when you run the new version as long as you keep your config the same).
#2 - Unzip v 1.2 next to your current version. You can use your old config file, but note that the methods for JSON-RPC have changed, namely you must pick either HTTP or RAW now. The rest of the config file is the same.
#3 - Run and enjoy. Make sure you modify the config as necessary to points to your Eden XBMC installation databases/ip's/etc.

OK, So I got BlueCops Vevo plugin sortof working here in Canada.
(Yahoo! Music Videos doesn't work at all)

I can only access videos in the "VEVO Playlists/VEVO Charts/" folder, the rest don't play.

I have tried

<SearchFilters>
<!--MiLO83 BlueCOP VEVO-->
<VEVO path="plugin://plugin.video.vevo/">
<subfolder name="VEVO Playlists/VEVO Charts/Top 10 on VEVO This Week" type="music_videos" max_videos="10"/>
</VEVO>
</SearchFilters>

And it unsurprisingly doesn't work.
It responds:

THANKS!

The problem here is that playlists show up as directories when we search from them in the JSON-RPC interface. This is intentional by XBMC, but an unfortunate side effect is that there is no way to know that the "Top 10 on VEVO This Week" playlist is not a traditional directories, so it gets skipped....
Also, I've noticed that bluecop lists the music videos under the category of "music" instead of "video". My plugin currently only searches for video content type, so it misses them. However, I've created a fix for it which will be in the Eden release.
