Hmm... It should be the same path you see set in the add-on settings. Maybe an Openelec thing, I tested this in ubuntu and didn't have any trouble.

Weird as it was, it did not show up when I mapped it again.

I tried setting the temp folder to an NFS network share (through XBMC)... plugin would not even start, so it looks like your temp file will have to be a local location.

Yeah, that would be too easy did you make sure it was mounted

I believe that Openelec removed all "mounting" options, since XBMC now supports NFS and SMB natively. I will try it from an Ubuntu PC to a mounted drive later tonight, just to see if it does work and how performance is.... you would be pulling data to your machine --> to network share --> back to your machine for playback... that's a lot of overhead

Hi,

As you can see, version is 1.0.8 but it does not help. 14 days ago it was OK, now it is not Could you help?

[divingmule]

Hi,
I am trying to play for example Yesterday's games with my account (not premium). Plugin says error and this is in log file:
As you can see, version is 1.0.8 but it does not help. 14 days ago it was OK, now it is not Could you help?

That is really strange. I'm not sure what to think

If your up for editing the add-ons default.py, you may try changing these lines near the top of the file from -

Code:

try:
    import json
except:
    import simplejson as json

to -

Code:

import simplejson as json

In the future, please use a site like http://pastebin.com to copy your log to, then post the link.

[divingmule]

sdsnyr94, can you open terminal or ssh and type these commands and post the output -

Code:

python
import os
os.uname()
exit()

@sdsnyr94 If you could try this, I need to see if I can identify Openelec and if it's 86 or 64 from os.uname().

If it's easier, add "print os.uname()" somewhere below the imports in the default.py, then check the log.

[sdsnyr94]

Sorry, I never saw the original post.... I will try this tonight when I get home and let you know.

[divingmule]

I tried setting the temp folder to an NFS network share (through XBMC)... plugin would not even start, so it looks like your temp file will have to be a local location.

Yeah, that would be too easy did you make sure it was mounted

I believe that Openelec removed all "mounting" options, since XBMC now supports NFS and SMB natively. I will try it from an Ubuntu PC to a mounted drive later tonight, just to see if it does work and how performance is.... you would be pulling data to your machine --> to network share --> back to your machine for playback... that's a lot of overhead

I think this may be a permission issue when making the dir with tempfile module. I'm going to try without using tempfile.

Hey,

nice work on integrating mlbhls in OE... awesome!
thanks to 'ultraman' over at the OE fourm for providing the mlbhls binary!

I got a problem though: mlbhls begins generating the ts file fine but always bails out when reaching ~2.5 GB; it just stops downloading. Any clue on that problem?

sdsnyr94, can you open terminal or ssh and type these commands and post the output -

Code:

python
import os
os.uname()
exit()

>>> os.uname()
('Linux', 'openelec', '3.2.16', '#1 SMP Mon Apr 30 06:30:46 CEST 2012', 'x86_64')

hope that helps...

cheers,
-tmoe

[tmoe]

Yeah, I think so. Maybe ask ultraman if there's another way so add-on updates don't overwrite the files? Or maybe we can point to the bin file from the addon...

as a workaround you could call a shell-script that gets executed via /storage/.config/autostart.sh when booting.
something like:

Code:

#!/bin/sh

MLBHLS_ADDON_DIR=/storage/.xbmc/addons/plugin.video.mlbmc.hls
MLBHLS_BIN=/storage/bin/mlbhls_x86_64

if [ ! -f "${MLBHLS_ADDON_DIR}/bin/mlbhls" ]; then
    [ ! -d "${MLBHLS_ADDON_DIR}/bin" ] && mkdir -p "${MLBHLS_ADDON_DIR}/bin"
    cp $MLBHLS_BIN "${MLBHLS_ADDON_DIR}/bin/mlbhls"
fi

Thanks tmoe. No idea why it would stop. If you look in the xbmc.log after starting a game you'll fine the mlbhls target. If you run that in a terminal it may shed some light on why.

Where is your temp file located? Could it be a file size limit on the filesystem?

[sdsnyr94]

...... and Divingmule - Thanks for the extra work your putting in for us Openelec users!!!! It's very appreciated!

[tmoe]

Where is your temp file located? Could it be a file size limit on the filesystem?

files will be created in /storage/tmp/

/dev/sda2 on /storage type ext4 (rw,noatime,barrier=1,data=ordered)

AFAIK ext4 didnt have a 2.5 GB limit but 16 TB

No idea why it would stop. If you look in the xbmc.log after starting a game you'll fine the mlbhls target. If you run that in a terminal it may shed some light on why.

you mean calling mlbhls w/ a retrieved base64 address and -F option from the shell to check if it will go all the way till the end? i will do that right away

[sdsnyr94]

I asked because I tried on a FAT32 flash drive and bumped against what I thought was the 4GB limit..... but now I will need to watch the file size to see if I stop ~2.5 also.... I'll let you know later.
