Channel plugin (Updated 12-06-23)

[SharkHunter]

If you are using SHB you should have more paths in there (I hope!?). Remove the PMS.conf file an reinstall (or just add these entries):

Code: Select all

pmsencoder.script.directory = extras\\scripts
dbgpack = extras\\channels\\channel.log,pmsencoder.log,plugins\\jumpy\\jumpy.log
youtube-dl.path = extras\\bin\\youtube-dl.exe
get-flash-videos.path = extras\\scripts\\get_flash_videos.pl
perl.path = extras\\perl\\bin\\perl.exe
python.path = extras\\Python27\\python
rtmpdump.path = extras\\bin\\rtmpdump.exe
curl.path = extras\\bin\\curl.exe
cookie.path = extras\\cookies
cred.path = C:\\ProgramData\\PMS-SHB\\PMS.cred

ok so i added the strings and put the right paths on some of them and it doesnt give me errors, but i get these and i dont know if they're a big problem:

Code: Select all

btw i didnt toggle the dbgpack because i didnt know what i was supposed to look for (jumpy.log?)

Hi SH,

Just wanted to drop in and recommend something. I found a very nice site (found it via its XBMC plugin ) that allows streaming of movies and TV shows, much like Icefilms.
I think it may be worth while to write a channel for it, if you can find the time.

www.1channel.ch

They have references to other file hosting / video hosting services. I believe many of the videos are flash-based (putlocker and others). There is an XBMC plugin to use as reference.
Just an FYI .

[pezur]

Got everything running more and more smoothly with my ps3mediaserver and pmsencoder setup.

At first i was surprised that most of the channels was missing content, turned out i was just lacking patience. Seems that it takes about 5-15 seconds to load the content in each "folder". Still problem with some content that will stop playing after about 3-4 minutes returning error code 2 in rtmpdump, no idea what is causing this. Seems like this appears with the most hardware demanding, ffmpeg encoder, almost at the same playing time. What can be wrong?

[manwe]

At first, thanks for the wonderful work you do.

Trying to view some navix channels that work fine on XBMC and / or constructing the correct rtmpdump command.

I think that the problem has to do with the URL attribute coming from navix link which has the form of

URL=rtmp://some.host playpath=/some/path swfUrl="http://some/url/player.swf" pageUrl="http://some/url"

Checking logs the executed command is

rtmpdump.exe -r rtmp://some.host playpath=/some/path swfUrl="http://some/url/player.swf" pageUrl="http://some/url" (not working for obvious reasons)
instead of the expected
rtmpdump.exe -r rtmp://some.host --playpath=/some/path --swfUrl="http://some/url/player.swf" --pageUrl="http://some/url" (works fine)

After messing for hours with Channels rtmp.groovy script, removing it (thus relying on built in pmsencoder script I guess), making a new one, etc, etc I still have not managed to get it working.

Is that kind of input OK and I am missing out something or input should already / always be in a form that $RTMPDUMP -o $DOWNLOADER_OUT -r ${$URI} would work out of the box without any modifications ? (thus missing the -- prefix for playpath, swfUrl etc)

If that's the case, is there any chance to implement handling for that kind of input ?
If not, could you please provide me with some hints of how could I handle it in a custom, extra script ? Studying available scripts, groovy language site and ps3mediaserver message boards was not enough to get me going. Any pointers to documentation / examples regarding handling of $URI and applying a regular expression before executing $RTMPDUMP would be valuable. I guess that something simple as search/replace playpath with --playpath, swfURL with --swfUrl etc would do the trick. I did it indirectly using TheStreamDB Navix Channel that did not work. Locating the source xml and using yahoo pipes I constructed the URL attribute in the "expected" format and it worked fine (providing WEB.conf with the rss output of the yahoo pipe and slightly altering rtmp.groovy)

For most of the channels there is no "other" source of the NaviX URL's links to media and the plain text format of the lists makes something like the above impossible.

Scripts are written in groovy language or they use a custom, limited implementation of a groovy like language ? Is there any connection of scripts with Navix NIPL ?

You can check viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10854&start=430#p65326 and viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10854&start=430#p65362 for a more detailed description / specific examples

Does theStreamDB or cybernukelivetv Navix Channels works out of the box for other users ?

Thanks in advance

@manwe
If you use SHB you need the rtmpdump.groovy from the build (or have a look at my github) since in SHB we use a custom ffmpeg with built in rtmp support so the rat rtmpdump program shouldn't be used. It looks like you got the correct script but still use rtmpdump. How does your rtmpdujmp.xgroovy script look like? Also make sure no rtmp.groovy script exists...

i found this site with a few channels

is it any good?

Hey,
Anyone able to get this to work? I'm on [Mac OS] 10.6 and get the no input stream. Here is my config file. I have to believe that is where the issue lies, but I'm not a programmer. I'm wiling to work with anyone with more knowledge than me to work this out and write a good tutorial once I can get it going. I can stream music and internet radio without any issues.
