RE: PlayIt service : Play hosted video url remotely on XBMC - nokiac - 2014-01-17

Hi AJ, thanks a lot for your awesome addons. I used PlayIt with XBMC 12.2 a lot on my RPi.

I recently had to move to XBMC 13 alpha as my new Wandboard is supported only by these XBMC versions. I am having trouble getting PlayIt to start . I get the error.

Error Type: <type 'exceptions.NameError'>
Error Contents: name 'TurtleService' is not defined
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/root/.xbmc/addons/service.playitx/TurtleMain.py", line 14, in <module>
TurtleService.start('service.playitx', 'PlayIt', '/PlayIt', 8181, [8100, 8199])
NameError: name 'TurtleService' is not defined
-->End of Python script error report<--


I tried a lot of things, including removing all repos and just adding AJ repo again, and also installing PlayIt from Zip file, each time starting with a new XBMC data dir (.xbmc in home dir) , it doesnt help.

Is PlayIt expected to work with XBMC 13 ? ANd is there anything special I need to do for it?

Thanks Smile

Hi
problem for me
Raspberry Pi; Openelec 3.2.4

I have selected "1080"

This url max quality is 480p
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4vU30FW7Brk&index=2&list=PL41F9CCF6501FC04E
I think Playit sends to my TV 144p because quality is really bad - firefox plugin "send to xbmc" is working perfect here but don't have the play list function.

I think this is just for youtube movies below 720p

This is important for me because lot of cartoons my daughter is watching have quality below 720p

I love this addon (fast and simple)

EDIT:
I changed
/storage/.xbmc/addons/script.module.turtlex/lib/snapvideo/YouTube.py
VIDEO_QUAL_LOW to VIDEO_QUAL_SD

Code:
elif(qual == '18'):  # 270p/360p MP4
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)
            elif(qual == '22'):  # 1280x720 MP4
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_HD_720, url)
            elif(qual == '34'):  # 480x360 FLV
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)
            elif(qual == '35' and video_info.get_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD) is None):  # 854\\327480 SD
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)
            elif(qual == '36' and video_info.get_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_LOW) is None):  # 320x240
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)
            elif(qual == '37'):  # 1920x1080 MP4
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_HD_1080, url)
            elif(qual == '38' and video_info.get_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_HD_1080) is None):  # 4096\\3272304 EPIC MP4
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_HD_1080, url)
            elif(qual == '43' and video_info.get_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_LOW) is None):  # 360 WEBM
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)
            elif(qual == '44' and video_info.get_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD) is None):  # 480 WEBM
                video_info.add_video_link(VIDEO_QUAL_SD, url)

I know this is not right but it helped for me

Youtube plugin works just fine with vevo videos (through a fix) but with PlayIt fails vevo video and shows nothing.

Is there any other add-on parses Youku which could be used?

Found one finally Here...and tested that Youku links work!
Fingers crossedSmile

This is amazing! Thank you so much!

PlayIt service: Adding new host? - cosmic - 2014-02-05

Hello Aj
Youtube streaming and such works perfectly, nice job there, even if it was quite hard to get the add-on installed correctly.I almost gave up... Only, I still look for a solution for Viaplay.se, for which there is currently no working add-on for XBMC either for Windows, Linux or NAS devices. Via Android phone and HDMI adapter to TV it works, but is not the smartest solution. I thought your add-on would solve it, but that is not the case.

Viaplay uses Silverlight for streaming film, but Flash for the OS 2014 sport. It's the latter one which I firsthand try to get working.
I have a payed account at Viaplay, and am logging in to the account via Firefox.(Playing in Firefox works of course.)

Force Refresh repository

Having the same problem, even after refreshing. Also I have tried to install the plugin .zip directly, but only got: "dependencies not met".

Sorry if this is a noob question. Huh

RE: PlayIt service : Play hosted video url remotely on XBMC - kruykaze - 2014-02-11

Is it possible to add more XBMC devices and switch between them in the addon?

Hi AJ,

I was wondering if you had a chance to fix PlayIt for XBMC 13 Gotham version, since we are looking at a beta now.

Thanks for your awesome work here Smile

I would also like to be able to do this, as it happens every time I turn on my media centre as well as making an annoying noise. My current workaround is to just disable the add-on until I need to use it, but this is cumbersome. Otherwise, I love the add-on Smile
