Can't add megavideo remote streams to playlist via HTTPAPI commands
#1
I'm on march 9 build, you have build after elupus fixed other megavideo bug (and know what i'm talking about) you're welcome to try it on that and report your findings.


I take a megavideo remote stream:
http://blablabla

then add a /index.flv to it:
http://blablabla/index.flv

then I run the command "addToPlaylist" and try to add it to 1, and I've also tried adding it to 0.
It gives me "Error" on both attempts, I've tried many megavideo flv streams. Yes, I'm sure the http stream is playable on xbmc and on a PC. It just doesnt' want to add it to a video playlist.

How can I do it? Why is it doing this?


Here is a mv stream to try it on (this expires in 24 hours):

You can get a fresh stream link with clipnabber.com and send in this url:
http://megavideo.com/?v=5AHUGC03

You don't need a bug report to recreate the situation or to want to help me.
Thanks.

plex, i have t3chbuild feb 25 2008 so it hasn`t been fixed.

Megavideo runs fine providing the flv isn`t appended to the octet stream.

Have a look at the powerflv megavideo plugin to get the functions to resolve a true path from Megavideo tags. I`m having this problem with the old Youtube plugin and i agree it is annoying. I`ll have a tinker and see, if i get anywhere i`ll let you know.

Link to post with flvmegavideo plugin.

megavideo streams are : Anime= Claymore,Blood+
Tv= Absolutely Fabulous,Are you being served a.k.a ( which does need the flv appended)
due to mplayer thinking it is an mp3.

But they work and can be queued.

i think you greatly misunderstood my question, and why is everyone else ignoring it?

I know how to resolve a "megavideo link" for the flv url, and how to get xbmc to accept as an flv file, the problem is trying to add one of these urls which i provided an example (that probably expired by now) to a playlist via HTTP API commands.
Anyone want to talk about that?
