I have tested DSPlayer with streaming content from video addons. I have stopped short of reconfiguring the provided DSPlayer Starter Kit because DSPlayer is not very reliable at playing this content.
With some addons, DSPlayer is very capable of playing back Internet video. However, I have encountered a few issues with several addons:
- Some videos will not load with DSPlayer despite being the correct protocol. They are played by DVDPlayer instead.
- Several videos freeze or crash when seeking (pressing up).
- Some videos freeze on load, locking-up the system.
For those willing to give this a try, I provided some instruction on how to get this working in the set-up guide in Other Resources. You will need to update your copy of mediasconfig.xml as the previous version contains a rule that causes DSPlayer to ignore the new rule for supported protocols.
