QuickTimeBrowser

2 more suggestions

change the speed-o-meter so it also respects teh time dimension. it would look nicer i think. btw, kbps ? thats k(ilo)b(ytes)p(er)s(econd). i assume you mean either kbps or kb/s

not much free room left but maybe room enough to bring a button to search all ~1000 trailers ?

i can't copy over the ".ds_store" file in ...python\lib\_xmlplus. the ftp blocks me on that file. wtf?

is there a way to make this the default "movie trailer" program, so that it can be started from the main menu.

instead of "aqtbrowser.py", i have tried looking in the xml files, but i can't seem to find where i have to change it,.

thanx for your help...

with cvs built after the 9th (using pm3 skin, which is now default), it's default in the popup menu. if it's the same in the build you download, i cannot guarantee

as i already said in another thread, a way i would be willing to work with would be if someone is willing to host data-scrapping php scripts that would be called by every user of xbmc, and those scripts would do the data-scrapping of the html pages, and produce xml data.
then, when the html pages changes, only the php scripts would have to be changed to produce the same xml.
that would work fine as long as websites don't ban the data scrapper's ip... though i'd guess that would happen often.
maybe we could create a 'pool' of hosts for the data scrapping scripts, and a central gateway could randomize access or something...

it might be a good idea to contact those websites and ask them if they would be willing to allow us to use their data in exchange for their logo on the script or something. but i don't see yahoo accepting such a proposal...

although html scraping is not really a preferred method, a different thinking pattern though: provide the scraping patterns or xmldom processing via one or 2 remote hosts (database filled with patterns and other data that is needed), there are several advantages: everyone can contribute, scraping patterns are centralized and no host will be banned

anyway it is time that streaming feeds become available in huge xml lists  :o

are you ignoring my question because you don't know, or is my question stupid.
