XRocket Wrote:I have just installed XBMC on Ubuntu base (Hardy). I just tried the various versions of iPlayer but cant get it to play anything. It is listing all of the channels and the various streams ie.. "Heroes: Series 3: the second coming" all are listed with 0.0 KB next to them.
When i select one the message comes up "Opening stream - 90%" and xbmc freezes
Has anyone had this issue and does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix?
I experience pretty much the same thing on an Xbox running the following T3CH build (latest at time of writing):
XBMC-SVN_2008-09-19_rev15640-T3CH-BETA1
The 29 Sept iPlayer plugin is able to browse the feeds fine, and has the correct thumbnails but reports all sizes as 0.0KB and hangs when I try to play them. I don't get any status message appearing about caching though, but it's a hard crash - in-game reset button combo doesn't work and the machine has to be powercycled.
With this same build the Best of ITV plugin works fine. Any ideas? Does this latest T3CH build change something that's needed? The previous T3CH build (XBMC-SVN_2008-09-08_rev15452-T3CH) has the same issue.
Thanks.
EDIT - found the "Bless" build of XBMC mentioned a few pages back and in the release note it says "also included is Frostys great RMTP fix so that you will be able to use programs such as BBC iPlayer & South Park Plugins". Gonna give that a whirl... Works very well. Excellent job - thanks for making this!
