Xbmc web play file
#1
I tried the following url:
http://192.168.1.25/xbmcCmds/xbmcHttp?co...79&key=ck1

This gave me the message "Error:Could not play file" but when i put the url to the file in a .m3u file, it plays perfectly.

What am i doing wrong with the url?

I also tried this:
http://v13.lscache8.googlevideo.com/vide...mp;key=ck1

(here i htmlencoded the url).

I'm pretty sure it is because googlevids do not like their streams to be playable outside a web browser, so it is not easy to find the right url for them. If i remember correctly, the second url is the right one, but requires the & to be replaced with guess what, actual ampsands (&). I am surprised you got the first one to play in a m3u file, i wish I could test it but my provider is playing up.

I found a working way now...
The first time I used the htmlencode from some site i found with google, but this time, i made a script in php myself to do the work. This gave me a another (but working) result of the url. As you can see the url is now made not with & but with %3D characters. This works fine Smile.

To see the result (what i have done with it) go to http://sendtoxbmc.vedelaar.nl/ Smile
The above url is with the following video (the url works only 5 minutes or something:
http://video.google.nl/videoplay?docid=5...ient=opera

Thanks for helping me out!
