I got a problem with this
I have installed chrome extension off playIt
entered my http://192.1xx.xxx.xxx
port 8181

Checked it on XBMC settings same port but every time I get "unable to connect"

Firewall related maybe? but after I shut that down aswell still no go...

Just Checking
1. Did you install the Addon on XBMC?
2. If yes, Is port 8181 selected under Settings>Addons>Enabled Addons>Services>Playit>Configure ?

Done.

To use: Right click on HD Free link and select PlayIt on XBMC {the best way}
Select HD Free link -> Select PlayIt Frame View and then a PlayIt button will appear on frame. {Alternative}

Just installed this and it looks very promising! I am trying to open a livestream.com video but it wont load. Anyway to get this to work? thanks!

livestream might not work. This add-on mostly supports the hosted video links, not live streaming links.

Oops there is one typo in my code. Forgot to write bbciplayer addon I'd instead I put Vevo addon id. I will fix it in evening. It should work after you install vevo addon or wait for my update push.

Hi Ajay...things are looking pretty positive. I have tested BBC-iPlayer on Windows as well as Raspberry Pi. Below are my findings

Windows: Video starts playing but a dialogbox covers the screen showing that video is loaded 80%. This does not happen when I play the same video directly from the addon.
Please Find Debug Log here. Please see screenshot below

Raspberry Pi (Openelec):
1.Video started playing perfectly the first time around but then all my android remotes and webinterface got disconnected. Had to SSH into RPi and reboot. Please see log here

2. Sending the link again using playit pops up an error message saying "Stream already playing, unable to open stream, to continue, stop all other streams (try pressing X)". I googled up a fix to this (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=167996).

3. Upon clicking the "force resume lock" in the BBC addon settings, the stream starts playing but no video...just the audio. Android Remotes and webinterface cannot connect. Log here. Rebooting and re-sending the URL using PlayIt brings back the error as listed in point #2 above.

THanks for sharing. This is kind a strange behavior but could be possible because XBMC uses different player for different OS.
The modal dialog box should not remain on window at least, once I delegate my request to BBC Iplayer add-on , it is out of my control and I cannot really react on whatever goes wrong. I will look into your log for more info.

Your OS firewall must be blocking connections to local subnet machines. Turn off firewall and try again.

Some of the videos from YouTube are using random signature generator .. Specially added by some company like vevo.
Use vevo website to play videos or playlist.

Hi Ajay...another addition to the wishlist .

Right-clicking on any audio URL in chrome and sending to PlayIt will start playing the audio file on XBMC, but sadly does not allow me to queue up audio files.
e.g. this website .

It might be even better if all audio files on a webpage can be added to a playlist in one go, but do appreciate that this might be too much to ask for.

Hi,

Great add-on. Got everything working fine with Chrome but I can't seem to get the Firefox extension to remember the port number I enter.

Any suggestions appreciated.

It remembers but due to some bug in this experimental feature of Firefox, ID doesn't pre populate it.

Some weak competiton coming up for you

But PlayIt is way far ahead at the moment.

I really don't wanna compare this program with the technology brought by chromecast. It is worth buying, its dirt cheap and easy to use. Hopefully, we can program to stream content from all media hosting websites but the problem is with media types supported by chromecast.
XBMC media player is best of all in supporting wide range of video codes. XBMC is the main program, PlayIt is just a small add-on.

Done. PlayIt version 0.4.7 released with this fix.

Any chance of supporting ted.com in the future?

Ajay,

Hi. I've been using your addon to watch desi shows for a few months now. All was fine until last night when it simply would not work. When I try to go to TV on DESI ZONE, I get an error message that says

FAILURE: Unknown error occurred

No module named snapvideo

In frustration I installed the PLAYIT addon. I set it up but any and every video link I try results in a URL not supported error. I did search this thread to see if that has happened top anyone else, and it seems that one person back on page 5 posted about it but I didn't see any resolution to his issue.

So my question is is the PLAYIT addon only for XBMC on the AppleTV? Or can it be used to send links to XBMC installed on a Windows PC?

Any help or suggestions you can give will be highly appreciated.

Thanks.
