actually, guys, i've already created a big package of strm files (i.e., no script needed) for about 239 different tv stations/feeds in 71 countries. the list is sorted through folders by country for halfway-easy reference. i got tired one night (after the long-dead xsp stream-pack plugin lost its saved addresses) and decided to create this for the betterment of everyone who just wants to stream world television without getting fancy about it.
it's based from many different large lists on the web (after reading asx files right and left to get the mms:// addresses for most) and i tested almost all the streams on the pc to make sure they're at least up and running; i can't vouch for all working in xbmc, but i can tell you that there can't be too many non-working streams. so far all the streams in my pack are windows media only. (see below for my questions on rm streaming.)
xbmc-tv.zip
just throw it all in a "tv" folder on your xbox and add an appropriate bookmark under "video" in xboxmediacenter.xml. you're set. anyone who can add onto this growing list with real working feeds, please feel free! also, feel free to pass the archive around and enjoy. just my way of giving back.
anyone familiar with streaming realmedia through the rtsp:// protocol on the xbmc? got a sample file you could paste? if i can get that figured out, the number of stations i can add and release would rise dramatically. thanks in advance.
