i have the same problem, i hope somebody can come up with a fix for this. i really wish i knew how to make these scripts or i'd do it myself. guess we'll have to wait and see if anybody is willing to fix it or has a solution to our problem.

works great for a few times then get a "loading" screen that never times out...but a great advance towards satisfying my wife's addiction to "viral videos"

its the "downloading" screen actually...i'm using the july 17th build of xbmc from cvs, what's yours?
i'll back off to earlier builds to see if that fixes my problem.
[update] none of the earlier versions to 6-28-2005 change this behavior. i can only watch one viral video and the second one i watch is always click-select and get the "downloading" screen with the non-functional cancel button.
even backing out of python scripts to main xbmc menu and going back into ifilmbrowser for second attempt results in "downloding" screen hang.

it has to be in this part of the code.. but don't know anything about writting code
def download_file(self,file_path,file_url):
if not emulating:
progress = xbmcgui.dialogprogress()
progress.create("ifilmbrowser", "downloading file...")
outputfile = open(file_path,"wb")
print 'downloading file'
print (file_url)
webpage = urllib.urlopen(file_url)
#data = filedata.read()
numbytes = 0
loop = 1
first = 1
if webpage.headers.has_key('content-length') == 0:
print 'too may connections...no length of file found'
if not emulating:
error1 = xbmcgui.dialog()
error1.ok("ifilmbrowser", "too many connections to the server.please try later.")
error1.close()
return 0
print('found content length')
filesize = webpage.headers['content-length']
print('file size id ' + str(filesize))
while loop:
data = webpage.read(50000)
if first == 1:
if find(data,'too many connections!') != -1:
if not emulating:
error2 = xbmcgui.dialog()
error2.ok("ifilmbrowser", "too many connections to the server. please try later.")
error2.close()
first = 0
if not data:
break
print 'read ' + str(len(data)) + ' bytes'
outputfile.write(data)
numbytes = numbytes + len(data)
perc = int ((numbytes*100) / int(filesize))
if not emulating:
progress.update(perc)
print ('percentage complete ' + str(perc))
print ('numbytes ' + str(numbytes))
#outputfile.write(data)
webpage.close()
outputfile.close
if not emulating:
progress.close()
return 1
w = ifilmbrowser()
w.domodal()
