New script "flexibrowser"

i've created a new plug-in for ebaumsworld

current plug-ins:
-ebaumsworld (new! lots of hillarious movies)
-channel9
-team xbox
-alphacentauri
-gamespot

i can't seem to figure out how to cache insteas of downloading the whole file first.

i have tried change the 0 to 1 in the line below:

self.downloadandplay = 0 # play direct or download before play

but that didn't do me any good, is it possible ??

press the x button on the controller.
this will toggle stream/download.

if flexibrowser is in download-mode if you will see an '*' at the start of the path on the top of the screen.

it should default to stream when the script starts.

only the teamxbox plug-in will always download, since when i created that plug-in xbmc had problem playing the videos directly from the teamxbox site.

thanx, that did the trick ;o)

i'd really like to see a script for archive.org. the site uses xml pretty heavily, so it should be a rather simple task compared to many other sites.

they have a rss feed. but it only contains the newest additions, like many other feeds.
or is there a place to get all movies of one archive in xml? haven't found one.

unfortunately, i haven't been able to find one either.

perhaps the best solution would be to have the script an first run search ftp://moviesxx.archive.org (with xx being 02 to 14) for all *_meta.xml files and build a local database of the movies. then, on future uses, it would probably be best to update the database using the various rss feeds.


there are 13,878 movies here...

just grabbed up the new version of flexibrowser and for some reason it's not working on my xbox

i put all the files in a "flexibrowser" directory like the description stated, and even created a "flexitemp" & "temp" directory.

all i get is "running" for half a second then it dissappears

the directory structure should be as following:

{flexibrowser}
+--flexibrowsergui.py
+--cachedhttp.py
+--clientcookie.zip
+--{plugins}
      +--plug_teamxbox.py
      +--plug_gamefaqs.py
      +--plug_(other plugins).py

just as it is stored in the zip file.

if you still experience probs please have a look at the xbmc logfile. it may help to pin down the problem. (remember to set the loglevel to 1 or 0 in xboxmediacenter.xml if you haven't already done so)

it doesn't work here either...i have the exact dir structure but i get some attribute error.
file "q:\scripts\flexibrowser\flexibrowsergui.py", line 96, in ? class flexibrowserhttp(cachedhttp.cachedhttp):
