Please help, can't play an mms link in XBMC thru a plugin
#1
Can someone please help here? Why would the link below "mms://98.126.116.69/geotv..com" would not play in XBMC? Ofcourse it is a pay site, but other non-MMS links play fine in XBMC with login authentication, not sure why this one is so special?

There are other channels on this site that play fine, I have been able to login to the site from XBMC using my premium account userid and password, and have accepted the cookies, and other streams play perfectly fine, but this one for some reason does not. I wonder if it can't see the associated cookie? But I am not sure how to pursue further here.

I would appreciate someone's guidance here. When I play the media from the site, it plays fine in FF, but when I play it in XBMC it does not. If I take the Url from FF, and try to play in Windows Media Player, it does not play there either, but I wonder that is only because of media player not seeing the login credentials.

I just need tip to start debugging this. Btw - It is my own Plugin that I am debugging here.

Hi,

Please if someone can help me debug this issue. The below link

mms://98.126.8.52:5119/OXY

Works for me in Windows Media Player as well as the MPlayer in Windows XP. But when I put this in an strm file and try playing in XBMC (XBOX), it does not play. It used to be that XBMC could play mostly anything you throw at it, but recently I started noticing a lot of streams not working. Has something basic change in XBMC that has caused something to break? Below is the link to my logfile after attempting to play the strm file:

I am totally lost here, I would greatly appreciate help with the debug.

Thanks.
