Interesting.... I'll see if I can figure out a way to prevent that from happing.

Thanks for the heads up.

I noticed that the rss: feed has the videos up before the website. Now (version .6) if no video is found on the website it grabs the latest episode from the rss: feed.

This may need tweaking as I'm not sure if there is a delay from when the audio goes up on the website and the video on the rss: feed.

Hmm, why was resume removed? I think it worked fine.
Only "TWiT Live" has resume. Which is kinda funny as you can't actually resume a live stream.

TWiT Live seems bugged? It's buffering every 20th second. http://live.twit.tv/ works fine in a browser. Though that doesn't seem to be the same source as you use. I get different video in the addon compared to http://live.twit.tv/

I wonder if Bitgravity was having some temporary issues. I've been running TWIT Live through this add-on all morning and haven't buffered once. Are you still experiencing this Hinz?

I didn't do anything to remove resume. I don't think there is any way, from a plugin, to effect this behavior. Wish I could remove it from the live stream.

Ideas anyone?

Your not the first to report buffering issues with the live stream. I've never had any trouble with it, playing fine right now, but I rarely watch it. Maybe post a debug log of when your having issues with it. Someone, not necessarily myself, may be able to tell whats going on?

The streams on live.twit.tv are all rtmp, witch I'm not ready to support. Patches welcome Smile

Strange, I'm sure resume worked before. Not sure if it was before last addon update or last XBMC update.

I installed the old version and indeed resume does work with it.

Investigating further...

Update on the way.

Switching back to scraping the rss: feed. For the shows without an rss: feed we'll still use the website but, no resume Sad

TWiT Live no longer ask if you want to resume Smile

Ok, thanks.
But why doesn't resume work on the website files? Seems to just be mp4 files.

Not sure. Has something to do with how you do "addItem" in the plugin.

resume don't work

Code:

def addLink():

    u=sys.argv[0]+"?url="+urllib.quote_plus(url)+"&mode="+str(mode)+"&name="+urllib.quote_plus(name)

    ok=True

    liz=xbmcgui.ListItem(name, iconImage="DefaultVideo.png", thumbnailImage=iconimage)

        ok=xbmcplugin.addDirectoryItem(handle=int(sys.argv[1]),url=u,listitem=liz)

    return ok

resume works

Code:

def addLink():

    ok=True

    liz=xbmcgui.ListItem(name, iconImage="DefaultVideo.png", thumbnailImage=iconimage)

        ok=xbmcplugin.addDirectoryItem(handle=int(sys.argv[1]),url=url,listitem=liz)

    return ok
