RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - ashlar - 2016-02-23
You might be on to something: http://xbmclogs.com/pz6yd8o4m
Yes, it appears it's transcoding. Even though I have it set at "Never transcode". Now I'll try to force it, I'll report back.
RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - ashlar - 2016-02-23
Confirmed. If I use "force prompt for quality" and then select original, bandwidth it's saturated. If I use "Never transcode" but do not use "force prompt for quality", it receives a transcoded version.
This is easy to spot, now that I know it, by looking at the audio codec, which in the original is DTS and gets transcoded to AAC... and then the video bitrate which is quite low, I was noticing it before but wasn't sure if maybe it got higher in other portions of the movie.

That's what I suspected, as the transcoded streams are bandwidth-limited. Tracking down the conflict in setting.

Hmmm... in addition, when trying to play original in DSPlayer I still get the cache errors... this even disabling cache and deleting the directory reference in settings.xml. This doesn't happen if selecting DVDPlayer.
Here's the log (I didn't take debug as the warning and errors come out anyway, if you need debug just let me know):
http://xbmclogs.com/pqfduqmmu#
I have Force Prompt Quality activated and "Never transcode" deactivated.
By the way, if you activate "Never transcode", it transcodes even if selecting "original" in the quality prompt. In both DVDPlayer and DSPlayer. This leads me to believe that the issue with cache wasn't solved, it simply hid behind me selecting original and the plugin serving a transcoded version anyway.

I've been working on decluttering/simplifying that segment of code. Started yesterday, hoping to be done sometime Friday. Suffering through an illness, making it hard to get more than a few tests done before I have to rest.
I'm trying to get the cloud_db tested as well, which will be a nice feature for STRM playback.

Take care of yourself. Health above all. Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

I've tracked down the issue. Issue with the media list not combining the correct lists. It was combined the transcoding + local file lists together even when never transcode was selected. That's fixing this transcode from loading.
I've simplified the playback logic (reduced by 2/3rds). I'm testing through all the test cases and will report in 16 hours time where I am with the testing. There will be a release today whether testing is completed.
I've also been testing cloud resume points. It has been in there and toggle by setting for a while, but not until I'm done testing. Cloud resume points are the tip-of-the-iceberg. I've had code in the plugin since 0.5.0 that includes the ability to create cloud playlists/etc. I'll be enabling these features as I work out the details on how the end-user will set them up.
RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - ashlar - 2016-02-27
Thanks for the update. Did you understand why the cache error resurfaced when using DSPlayer instead of DVDPlayer? As per my last uploaded log.
Thanks again.

always has not work with DSPlayer? From the 403, it doesn't seem to accept headers passed in from plugins (for authentication).
RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - ashlar - 2016-02-27
What I can tell you is that DSPlayer works fine with the YouTube plugin. And in your case works fine with transcoded material.

youtube and Google Drive transcoded does not need authentication headers to process.
How do I change the player type to test?
RE: [RELEASE] gdrive - Google Drive Video/Music Add-on - ashlar - 2016-02-28
If you can access a Windows machine, this is the build http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?pid=2261017#pid2261017
Then you can decide whether to use DVDPlayer or DSPlayer with "Play using..." from the contextual menu.
