Here's something I've discovered that might be an easy fix.
I keep my videos on a server upstairs and share it to my TV using WebDAV. Videos play fine in standard XBMC, but fail to play in PTVL. Here's the error from the XBMC log:
Code:

At a guess, looking at the apache access logs, is that XBMC is doing URL encoding, and PSTL isn't.
Here's a working request from regular XBMC:
Code:
10.128.3.0 - - [16/Dec/2014:08:43:18 -0800] "HEAD /public/Video/TV%20Shows/Mystery%20Science%20Theater%203000/MST3K%20Season%205/MST3K%20-%200512%20-%2000000000%20-%20Mitchell.avi HTTP/1.1" 200 -
And the nonfunctional one from PSTL:
Code:
10.128.3.0 - - [16/Dec/2014:08:59:19 -0800] "GET /public/Video/TV Shows/Mystery Science Theater 3000/MST3K Season 5/MST3K - 0516 - 20020214 - Alien From LA.avi HTTP/1.1" 404 1016
Yeah, I know one is a HEAD and the other one is a GET, but that's the idea. I haven't seen anyone else talking about this, so I don't know if it's already reported or not.
Thanks a bunch!
help....
