from time to time i'm getting an error when trying to play videos. (Message see below). Tried to fix it myself but was not able to But i'm pretty sure i found the problem: YouTube.py (and probably many more) can't handle non-ascii characters in titles, like here:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GvtxiMEqnFU

It is containing a german umlaut (ä,ö,ü).

I hope this is easy to fix ?

I would like to suggest a change: As described above by aptalca, the firefox plugin does not save the hostname. I solved it by unzipping the XPI-file (addon file) and changing "apple.tv-local" to "myhostname". But it be cool if the addon would have a variable "hostname" in the settings menu of the addon. If it would be this way it also would be one click less to get the video playing (send the url directly after clicking the button with no need to confirm the connection parameters).

Great sunday everyone!

I don't know if this is related to any of the above or not, but felt it worth mentioning. I (finally) updated to Frodo yesterday, installed PlayIt and nothing is playing. The command is being sent to XBMC just fine as I see "PlayIt Service: Processing your request" and then just receive "Error while processing your request". I tried several different videos and all have the same result. The only thing in the log is:

Code:

20:59:55 T:2592   FATAL: PlayIt Service :: ERROR OCCURRED: 'Request' object has no attribute '__initialize__'

If there is anything I can do or any additional information I can provide to help troubleshoot, please let me know and I will be more than happy to. I use this plugin quite a bit and thorough enjoy it!!

(Yes, I am using FireFox)

Yesterday I pushed some updated in base library of PlayIt add-on, but forgot to test it this one. I have made the necessary changes to fix the issue. Your XBMC will download the latest service add-on automatically or you can also do force refresh from settings->addon menu.
