Play .part files - anarchintosh - 2011-04-17
I reckon this would be really easy to add to XBMC.
I'm suggesting adding all playable extensions that also have .part appended to the end as playable.
ie. my_vid.avi.part or my_vid.flv.part
This is because as a last resort, i sometimes download a videofile in my browser and then play the video in xbmc as its downloading. I imagine lots of other users do this as well.
Currently i'm using a messy solution of making all .part files playable by xbmc my advancedsettings.xml
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<videoextensions>
<add>.part</add>
</videoextensions>
</advancedsettings>although i could change it to be like this:
Code:
<advancedsettings>
<videoextensions>
<add>.avi.part .mkv.part .divx.part</add>
</videoextensions>

I second this. As of now playing a .part file means grabbing the keyboard/mouse and opening vlc. it'd be nice to have it integrated.
