Yes, you are trying to make PseudoTV do something it was not designed to do.

actually, PTV has strm support! its not playing because PTV only plays content when it knows the length of the video. Since a strm file is nothing more then a shortcut to web media... there is no metadata to read so PTV has no clue how long it runs... so its ignored... if you follow my post a few pages ago you can read how to manual create a nfo and scrape the strm file to xbmc's library from there you can add it to PTV.
Yeah, that's why this thread has had no one complain because they can't get their strm files working. I still say as has Jason in the past that PTV was designed for a "LOCAL" library. Any strm files you or anyone else gets working, is pure luck! I still don't understand why the folks who are attempting this don't use the thread with version of PTV that was modified to use strm files. This thread is long and those useless posts here just pollute it more and get in the way of those if us who are trying to use this as it was intended and get the bugs squashed.
