Lunatixz - I recently bought a PlayOn lifetime license(on sale), and I was wondering how the hulu episode lengths were calculated when using the PlayOn channel builder. Does it take into account the commercials? Does anyone know if there is a standard commercial amount for 1/2 & 1 hour shows? I didn't watch much of a single channel, but I could see it getting out of sync. Also, when selecting channels it always started from the beginning, is there any way around this(I enabled resume in playon)?

I get this too, and it takes you out of the 'pseudo' experience(imagine that popping up on a cable company dvr). I'm guessing this would have to be handled in modifying a code in kodi(Lunatixz?) Even if it were just the dialog without having to click 'ok'. I don't need to acknowledge it elsewhere, if what I clicked failed to play, I would know because I wouldn't be watching it.
This isn't a PTVL problem, Just about every plugin developer has tried to find a why around it... there is none... Needs to be fixed in XBMC's code. Team Kodi refuses to add support to block or handle this prompt, because they feel it promotes piracy. So you are stuck using sources that won't fail, I've tried my best to add support to avoid the prompt. Take a look at the playback timer under misc. settings.
started about 10 minutes ago, I keep getting a "your version is out of date" message, and it keeps doing it after restarting XBMC.
Anyone else getting this? If not, I can post a log.

Can anyone else make this work? If I goto the videos add-on and goto the youtube video addon these playlists work... but they will not work in PSTV
help....
Change False to True in this line
<setting id="Channel_89_changed" value="False" />
This will force to regenerate the channel from the Playlist
BTW the value in
<setting id="Channel_89_rule_1_opt_1" value="User Playlist" />
can be the playlist name that you decide...

Thanks, I will try that this evening...

HSN is an example of this type of stream. Didn't wanna post details as am not sure on rules on it. Please advise. Log will be posted if needed.
Edit: Seems that changing those streams from rtmp to rtsp seems to make those channels work.
Edit: RTMP streams don't seem to work with channel type 9 streams either. Help Luna!

I noticed issues when trying to add rtmp streams that also include the playpath, swfURL, pageUrl and other options in the url. I think its a with the RTMPDump to test the URL that causes it not to get added.
Nothing in the log that I could find useful, but I did mess with the rtmpdump routine to get around it as an ugly hack.
Let me know if you want a URL to test with.
I also had this problem with RTMP streams. I posted the other day but it was probably buried and overlooked. Hoping for a fix or suggestion.
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:

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!

If I type in channel from the keypad (or my remote), the channel changes but the logo stays the same. If I do channel up/down, the logo changes with the channel - likewise if I select from the OSD TV Guide. But if I manually enter a channel number to change to, the logo stays.
Anyone else?
Fix included in the next update.
Alright having a bone head type moment and require assistance . While making my skin I came across a problem. I have added the static now playing image for the currently playing title in the EPG. I also added a poster Icon with video description that is supposed to change to whatever is highlighted while scrolling the guide channels. This is the pArt that stopped working and I am basically asking what is the control type I need to make it dynamic rather then just the player.art(poster)? I'm pretty new to most everything and just fixing this one little probably simpl detail will basically fix my problem lol sorry for the noob like question. Thanks for the help.

WOW If I am reading between the lines with the new kodi I guess Gotham will be the last one that we need to stick to for all the FUTURE of XBMC ? Unless a splinter group decides to keep improving Gotham !
@bry-
Thank you for all of the help! I have finished creating all of my .strm files and everything is working great. Now I can focus on making it look pretty and create some logos. I need to tweak some channels and replace some SD ones with their HD counterparts. I also have the HDHomerun channels working on my Fire TV.
My XMLTV epg data randomly stopped working in PTVL. I uploaded a log. Anyone have any ideas?

What is "hub crap"? I have no idea what that means...
How do I fix my "FFMPEG issues."?
Quick question, is it possible to show artwork just for YouTube channels? For example, I see when you want to show different info/artwork for movies vs. episodes you can use the following:
<visible>VideoPlayer.Content(Movies)</visible>
or
<visible>VideoPlayer.Content(Episodes)</visible>
Is there something similar for YouTube channels? I checked the wiki and only saw these parameters: files, movies, episodes, musicvideos, livetv.
Is there another way to make this work? Perhaps something like <visible> if the content is a youtube stream?
