bluecop's beta video plugin repository

BlueCop Wrote:Hulu+ only allows one device at a time...

jUgGsY: give me a couple days to finish movie listings and I'll up it so it's installable from the repo.

Thanks.

Be happy to get Hulu.

BlueCop Wrote:I don't know anyone else with plus membership and haven't had any requests to try the plugin for plus so I haven't committed. The service is in flux a bit anyway.

I also have Hulu+ and would very much like to help test your plugin for it.

I commited hulu for anyone wanting to try out hulu plus support. Plus members set your username and pass in the settings and enable login.

Consider this a preview. I am working on filtering the plus content for non plus members.

If you want to try it great but don't expect support from me yet. It is mostly working great though. Subtitles are not working because I am not sure how to assign when using setresolveurl.

exobuzz Wrote:just a FYI, I make my plugins work on xbmc4xbox and xbmc by using
http://code.google.com/p/xbmc-iplayerv2/...ncompat.py and calling the functions in that for getting settings etc.
there is also a compatibility module here from nuka for xbmc4xbox to allow some addons to work almost unmodified
http://xbmc-addons.googlecode.com/svn/packages/xbox.py
using something like

Code:

try:
    import xbmcaddon
except:
    # get xbox compatibility module
    from resources.lib.xbox import *
    xbmcaddon = XBMCADDON()

Please show an example in more detail... I do not know python at all , Do you have to modify a file or just copy the xbox.py with no modified files into the same folder with the plugin directory folder?? Or are you just giving general info to python programmers so they can do it?

Thanks!

The Hulu plugin is looking great Bluecop Can't wait until you add Plus/Non-plus filtering (or until I can get my invite.) Is it possible to push the "All" menu item to the top of the listings?

Jopplehead: calm yourself. You won't have to the think or learn very soon. I pulled an old xbox out to work on compatibility. Shame I am staying inside on a pretty day.

Thanks maruchan. If you want commit access let me know. I want several options like that for flattening and filtering options. All your subtitle code is still there but don't know how to assign it to a list item.

Edit: forgot to add that work in NBC universal is going slow. It isn't a huge priority because it is redundant with content from hulu. I want to redo many aspects of the plugin. I still plan on finishing it just will take more time.

Sorry.... I do not expect you to do it BlueCop.. I just don't understand what Exobuzz is saying and it's flustrating. I know you all do this as volunteers. Can you point me to something That I can learn this to help out? I wouldn't mind contributing myself to this cause. I used to do some basic programming in my younger years and just a very little of 8 bit assembly back in the day. *** Please do not make extra effort for me. Thanks for all you do.

No worries. I was just trying to make a joke. Might not have been funny. Glad to help xbox users. I was one for a long long time.

The wiki still has good info on python development. I think picking out a well made plugin like YouTube or TEDTalks and looking at the code goes a long way for understanding plugins in addition to reading documentation.

Awesome work as usual, Bluecop. I haven't been feeling well for the past week, and I can't tell you how much this has helped to alleviate my boredom on the couch.

I assume you'll be adding back the queue and subscription feeds? That would be great, but I can always run the old version concurrently if I want to use those.

If Hulu doesn't try to put the kibosh on this, I would seriously consider signing up for Hulu+ when it goes public. Without XBMC support, I have no use for Hulu at all.

Anyway, thanks for the great work.
