Hi
I've followed the various instructions to get the "get_iplayer" version of this hack working with the xbmc IPlayer plugin.
Unfortunately something is not quite right - I wondered if anyone could spot the problem easily.
From XBMC when I select a programme to watch via IPlayer I get a message "Failed to playback" (or sometimes no error at all and just doesn't play) and I can see more details via the logs:
When running get_iplayer on port 1935 and observing the console I see:
ERROR: RTMP_ReadPacket, failed to read RTMP packet body. len: 85855
Download may be incomplete (downloaded about 0.00%), try resuming
INFO: 28522 killing cmd PID=28521 with SIGPIPE
Also in the xbmc.log I see entries like:
20:25:58 T:2977229680 M:1201557504 ERROR: Open - failed to open source <http://localhost:1935/iplayer?ACTION=stream&PROGTYPES=tv&PID=b00s1tpp&MODES=flashhd,flashvhigh,flashhigh,flashstd&STREAMTYPE=none>
When I open that URL via Firefox on the same linux box it works fine...
This happens for any of the programmes I select.
Any ideas what is going wrong?
I have the latest version of the IPlayer plugin and a recent version of XBMC.
