XBMC.MyLibrary - Scan any source to the library (Hulu/Netflix/Plugins)

bradvido88 Wrote:The number of the mymoviesXX.db may change based on what release you are using and what OS you're on. Just change the Config.xml to whatever is in your XBMC's /database folder.
Note that this program only officially supports XBMC up to version 10.1. There may be some database redesign that has happened in the latest nightlies that could cause problems with this program.
Do the icefilms stream when you play through the plugin itself?

Icefilms support is weak currently. Like I've said before, the best way to use it is to set download="true" and set up jdownloader for icefilms.
Also, if i remember correctly, if you have the "Successfull account notification" set to true in the plugin options, that causes problems while scanning Icefilms.

ok thanks i'll change the config for mymovies48.db, did not think DO'H

yes icefilms works fine when just using the plugin, i've tried manualy creating strm files then adding them to xbmc but they will not stream, i'm using 10.1 stable release by the way.

edit: sorry no i'm not been using 10.1, i've been using a build with a buffer for icefilms, i'll reinstall the stable release

just as a quick piece of advice for anyone using this with icefilms....

if you want to scan things to library easily add this to your config file

<!--Download HD movies from Icefilms plugin -->
<IceFilms path="plugin://plugin.video.icefilms" multi_part="true" recursive="false">


<subfolder name="Favourites" type="episodes" recursive="true">

</subfolder>

</IceFilms>


then place all tv shows you want into your favourites folder inside icefilms plugin and then run this script..... easy peasy scanning

Out of curiosity, what build are you referring to?

this is the download link posted by someone on the icefilms thread, post 534

Any possibility of this becoming open source? Would definitely help to keep up to date with the latest nightly builds and the new XBMC database changes...

this script from what i can tell works fine with the nightly builds and the database changes...is just the number that myvideosxx.db uses.... open source would be useful for others to collaborate apon but realistically the script itself functions very well.... it does what it says it does so far and bravido has supported it very well

Question:

I keep seeing that you must set download = to true for Icefilms to work with this program. Does that mean you will only be able to download content from the tv library or is this just a setting that needs to be enabled in order for it to stream icefilms content from the library?

Yes, there is. Problem is I'm a perfectionist and the code is currently embarrassing. I haven't had time to beautify it in my spare time. But once I feel it's ready for community collaboration, I'm all for it

I am hoping that program will help influence the devs to include streaming content into the library. Its a brilliant idea. I realize that the library is designed to be a way to showcase our local media but I don't see why it can't be a way to unify all of our content.

This is seriously the worst workaround in the world but i think i have found a way of stopping the playback failed error.......

press enter twice when selecting a episode.

Works everytime for me, if i press enter once i get playback failed have to press esc and then reselect episode and then it streams with no error....

if i press enter twice from the off then the program does not have any errors and the stream works perfectly first time round
