Problem: Download and watch flash videos on Windows (get_flash_videos) with PMSEncoder
Solution::
1. Install the new PMSEencoder plugin from here:
http://ps3mediaserver.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=6644. Put the pmsencoder.jar file into the "plugins" directory.
Check whether 'pmsencoder' is set in PMS.conf file under 'engines =' row as follows:
- Code: Select all
engines = pmsencoder,mencoder,tsmuxer,avsffmpeg,avsmencoder,ffmpegaudio,mplayeraudio,tsmuxeraudio,mencoderwebvideo,mplayervideodump,vlcvideo,mplayerwebaudio,vlcaudio,ffmpegdvrmsremux,rawthumbs
If not, add this entry.
2. Download the script "get_flash_videos.groovy" from here:
https://github.com/chocolateboy/pmsencoder/tree/master/misc/scripts3. Install ActivePerl according to this HowTo:
http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/wiki/Installation. Now you have installed the perl interpreter under the directory "C:\Perl\bin\perl.exe"
4. Download the following perl script
http://code.google.com/p/get-flash-videos/downloads/detail?name=get_flash_videos-1.24&can=2&q= and save it on your harddisk.
For example under the path "C:\Perl\Scripts".
5. Change the 2 variables in the get_flash_videos.groovy script as follows:
Instead of:
- Code: Select all
def GET_FLASH_VIDEOS = '/usr/bin/get_flash_videos'
def PERL = '/usr/bin/perl'
write the following paths:
- Code: Select all
def GET_FLASH_VIDEOS = 'C:\\Perl\\Scripts\\get_flash_videos'
def PERL = 'C:\\Perl\\bin\\perl'
5. Now as example enter the following line into your Web.conf file:
