Testing your latest script changes

- Win7, XBMC Nightly as of Aug 29th

Missing some imports?

Haha, yeah bit of a pre-mature post yesterday. Was going through the code while waiting to pickup my wife. Posted the link to the needed import and the modified default.py on the release thread. Can get it from the unstable branch of my fork at bitbucket. http://code.wesada.ca/xbmc-icefilms/raw/...default.py

Yep, seems to be working, well done, (but as it's replaced default.py, it's broken "Download & Watch").

Working very nicely so far!

Wondering if someone can explain for me how this works and allows the seeking:


Versus just calling xbmc.player

eg. xbmc.Player( xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER ).play( link[0], listitem )

Code:

thread1 = threading.Thread(target=urllib.urlretrieve, args=(link[0], mypath))
          thread1.start()
          xbmc.sleep(10000) # Set a 10 second delay to allow the file start downloading a bit.
          thread2 = threading.Thread(target=xbmc.Player( xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER ).play, args=(mypath, listitem))
          thread2.start()
          while thread2.isAlive():
              pass
          while os.path.exists(mypath):
                     try:
                         os.remove(mypath)
                         break
                     except:
                          pass

eg. xbmc.Player( xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER ).play( link[0], listitem )

It downloads the file in one thread, and plays the file in another. Because the file is on the device it's playing on, it's like playing any other video file.

Not working for me on atv2, nothing happens after megaupload countdown. Here's my log http://pastebin.com/ibjQnkKF

Very cool idea!

I haven't got this back to my home htpc yet where I usually experience buffering problems due to MegaUpload just not sending fast enough

What is the expected behavior when the 2nd thread tries to read further than what you have downloaded in the 1st thread?

Can anyone fix the inability to play shows that have special characters like : -

A lot of TV shows have those on Icefilms.

I have Eden version of XBMC and Aeon MQ3

Having searched google, i can see it seems to be a common issue, but can't see a fix for it -

Are you getting a script error due to this? Shouldn't be..

But there are a few things in Icefilms that needs some updating for Eden, but I don't think will actually cause any script errors..

Ok I'm completly new to this but I've started doing some reading for python.

I have a simple question to ask ..

How can I change that ugly megaupload logo everytime I wait for a movie to load ?

Any suggestions/guidance is very much appreciated.
