I have made simple plugin for YLE Areena: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2755245/plugin.v...na-0.1.zip
It requires installing latest yle-dl: http://users.tkk.fi/~aajanki/rtmpdump-yle/index-en.html

You can add more rss links by editing file: plugin.video.yleareena/categories.txt

I tried this but I'm getting following error when trying to play video: "script failed: yleareena.py"

Do you have installed yle-dl? Can you give logs?

Yes, I installed yle-dl from the Windows installer but I'm not sure if I should do something with it after installation

Here's some error messages from the log file:

Hello,

I have Windows 7. I have installed XBMC Eden, YleAreena -lataaja and the Yleareena Addon. I can launch the addon, and see the list of programs in the submenus. But when I choose a program I get an error.

I have put the yle-dl folder to path so it starts where ever I want to launch it. The installation path is "C:\Program Files\YLEAreena\yle-dl-windows"-

I tried to launch video which address in browser from Areena is:
http://areena.yle.fi/tv/1634343

In XBMC log I get the following:

Code:

If anyone interested here is a simply addon for ruutu.fi: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2755245/plugin.video.ruutu.zip

Thanks. Works like a charm :-)

Hi Xibalban, unfortunately I have not tested in under Windows, myself I only run XBMC under Ubuntu. Anyway, log error says timeout. Do you get it for all videos you try to play?

Has anyone in Finland get Yle Arena to work?

It works for me in Windows 7. I had to change the yleareena.py file a bit. This works for me:

Code:

def scrapVideo(url):
    
    ##Python < 2.5
        
        
    os.system("\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\YLE Areena -lataaja\\yle-dl-windows\\yle-dl\" " + url + " --showurl > c:\\temp\\yleareenalink.txt");
    rtmpLink = open('c:\\temp\\yleareenalink.txt', 'r').read()
    
    ##Python >= 2.5    
    #rtmpLink = subprocess.check_output(["C:\Program Files (x86)\YLE Areena -lataaja\yle-dl-windows\yle-dl", url, "--showurl"])
    #rtmpLink = rtmpLink.strip('\n')
    return rtmpLink

Obviously you need to change the path if you installed yle-dl in some other folder. The path has to be written exactly as it is above with double backslashes etc. for it to work.

?? There is a external DLL involved.. cool, work-around for the security measures.

Is this in Xbmc repository? What about ATV2 XBMC? obivously doesn't work?

Do you have focus problem? .cmd stole focus.
cmd open and i can see some RTMPDump error, then playpack start.

Thank you Pete! I can verify that this works well in Windows 7. In Windows XP it is not working for me.

Yes, I have this same problem.

I found that if i select "Use fullscreen rather than true fullscreen" option, cmd wont pop up.

I found that if i select "Use fullscreen rather than true fullscreen" option, cmd wont pop up.

But this is workaround and it does not work good allways. If someone know how to fix that issue, please let me know.

I can't see that rtmpdump error anymore, only empty .cmd. i just add this line to .py file.

os.system("\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\YLE Areena -lataaja\\yle-dl-windows\\yle-dl\" " + url + " --rtmpdump path --showurl > c:\\temp\\yleareenalink.txt");

Do i have to add something like that? Or what that --rtmpdump path means?
--rtmpdump path "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\YLE Areena -lataaja\"

But really big thanks to szymex. Yleareena is just awesome for little kids.
I hope that we get ruutu and katsomo working in windows too.

Sorry my english.

Hi,

I have fixed and updated ruutu.fi plugin. It uses 'old' site: http://arkisto.ruutu.fi.
I added browsing through all available tv series and adding (removing) favorites to main page. Adding is done from context menu.

I would appreciate very much if someone could make a working Yle Areena -addon that´s easy to install. I haven´t quite figured out how this installation goes now (running Openelec). PS3´s Areena sucks big time.
