Hello,

I've been playing around and learning python for about a week. I've been wanting to write a addon for mtv.com fullepisode classic cartoons or possibly all full episodes. Beavis and Butthead, Aeon Flux, and Daria. I think i got the scraping figured out. I'm just having a little problems on the RTMPe part. I've gotten it down to this.

import xbmc, xbmcgui

#playpath = "http://www.mtv.com/player/includes/mediaGen.jhtml?uri=mgid:uma:video:mtv.com:138902&vid=138902"
rtmp_url = "rtmp://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/beavis_and_butthead/MTV_BEAVISBUTTHEAD_107_1_320.flv"
swf_url = "http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/gui/?v=1.5.5"
item = xbmcgui.ListItem("Beavis and Butthead")
#item.setProperty("PlayPath", playpath)
item.setProperty("SWFPlayer", swf_url)
xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER).play(rtmp_url, item)

Got IT almost! if i put it on a string like this. its goes farther

import xbmc, xbmcgui
item = xbmcgui.ListItem("Beavis and Butthead")
rtmp_url="rtmp://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/beavis_and_butthead/MTV_BEAVISBUTTHEAD_107_1_240.flv swfurl=http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/gui/?v=1.5.5 swfvfy=true"
xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER).play(rtmp_url, item)

this is just a test code for the rtmpe part. Its plays. But then its stops. after about a minute.

A little Guidance would be Appreciated

well i fired up wireshark to see what it would tell me about the rtmp stream.
and i'm getting Audio Data (Malformed Packet). I'm not sure of what that means..

Maybe someone can shed some light ... i released my addon.
But it seams like people who are running windows have a problem with
this string being passed to a list item. It works fine Under Linux

rtmp_url="rtmp://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/beavis_and_butthead/MTV_BEAVISBUTTHEAD_107_1_240.flv swfurl=http://media.mtvnservices.com/player/gui/?v=1.5.5 swfvfy=true"
xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER).play(rtmp_ url, item)

I'm thinking on Windows the _! in the Url might be causing it to fail.

Any Idea would be appreciated

cutted rtmp_url did work on windows:

Code:

rtmp_url="rtmp://cp10740.edgefcs.net/ondemand/mtvcomstor/_!/mtv.com/onair/beavis_and_butthead/MTV_BEAVISBUTTHEAD_107_1_240.flv"
        xbmc.Player(xbmc.PLAYER_CORE_DVDPLAYER).play(rtmp_url)
