Music Video Jukebox Broken

birchwood Wrote:I'm so happy to see a new version of this and the last.fm features look great. But... I can't get it to work. When I try to load anything it says "opening stream" and freezes there until I reboot.

I'm running XBMC 10.0-9 on an appletv2.

Can you post your XBMC log file?

Other question: can you tell if the Youtube plugin has that same problem ? I ask this because the Music Video Jukebox calls the Youtube plugin for playing the video.

I have a problem with Music Video Jukebox too.
When I want to play a song it just doesn't start. Nothing happens when I hit Enter.
The You Tube addon works fine...

It worked some time ago when I first tried it. But now it doesn't anymore
Hope you can help me as I loved

Btw:
I use XBMC from Ubuntu: 10.1 (Compiled Mar 9 2011)


Here's the xbmc.log:

Hi,

I've tried to reproduce the problem, but no luck.

I've tested it on XBMC 10.1 as well.

I honestly have no clue what might be the problem. If the Youtube plugin works fine as you suggested, the Music Video Jukebox should be able to play video files.

Anything else you can think of?

I've tried MVJ as well on my ION2 system with openelec.
There's the same problem (but I haven't checked the log yet).
I found that other plugins have the same problem. Maybe IP adresses from Switzerland are blocked?

First off, really excellent add-on! I only have a request for the add-on, but couldn't find the release thread, so I am posting here. Would it be possible add an option to the add-on settings so that you can select your desired default video quality so that it doesn't have to ask you everytime you play a video? It's mainly just annoying when I select "play all" under a category and it makes a big playlist of videos and starts playing them, but everytime it moves to the next video in the playlist, I have to select the video quality again before it will continue playing.

Any idea why? It works on my mac (lion 10.7.2).

This is linux / python issue.

I had the same error and this simple hack worked for me ...

Edit default.py in the addons/plugin.video.musicvideojukebox directory, and change each occurrence of

PARAMETER_KEY_MODE:MODE_PLAY_TRACK

to

PARAMETER_KEY_MODE:str(MODE_PLAY_TRACK)


To cast the integer to a string and the url is constriucted ok.

Let me know if this helps...

Hi sorry for the late reply but yes this worked!

How I can edit this file? Where I can find this in windows 7 64 bit platform?

Hi,

I have made some changes to the Default.py, but since I'm unable to reproduce the bug. I would like to call for your help.

You can get the sources for the new Default.py here: http://code.google.com/p/izexbmcaddons/s...Default.py

Can you replace the Default.py in the XBMC\addons\plugin.video.musicvideojukebox folder with this new source? And let me know if it works.
If so I will submit it to the official repo.

Thanks in advance,
