youtube HD

[recliq]

Latest version you want (with autores and wdtvext) is this: 1.02.21-WDLXTV-Live-0.4.5.3 [flash]
Right now there's no WDLXTV with PsychoTHC OSD MOD intergrated AND fixed YouTubeHD. (AFAIK)

Fabulous! Thank you!

So this has "autores", "wdtvext", "YouTubeHD fixed" but it does NOT have "PsychoTHC OSD MOD" ? Correct ?

Thanks again!

yes, you need to use usb version of PsychoTHC if you want it.

YoutubeHD broke again a few days ago due to an HTML change. It's currently fixed on SVN, but 0.4.5.3 no longer works.

Cheers buddy. I think I'll stay on my current firmware until YouTube stop messing about.

You can manually patch your youtubeHD file by using the procedure pointed to in the FAQ. This might not work however unless you are already on 0.4.5.3 - other PHP-related stuff has changed before the 0.4.5.x releases.

Could you direct me where that specific FAQ page is? I would like to manually patch it.

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to raise some awareness on two small issues with YoutubeHD:
1. There is no 270P quality. The correct value would be 240P. This would need to be changed in the webend and in the youtube proxy. The old value can be left for backward compatibility in the conf file:

Code: Select all

$quality_map = array('1080P' => 37, '720P' => 22, '480P' => 35, '360P' => 34, '240P' => 5, '270P' => 5);


Also, the correct value for 240P is 5, not 18.
2. I was playing with navigation in youtube clips, and navigation works for MP4 content, but is slow for FLV content.

According to wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YouTube#Quality_and_codecs), youtube offers 360P and 720P in two assortments (FLV and MP4). I'm not 100% sure that all clips have both options, but in my experience MP4 should be preferred over FLV.
I'm not sure if we can support both formats (would need some more intense code rewrite), but I propose the following quality_map redefinition (360P changed from 35 (FLV) to 18 (MP4):

Code: Select all

$quality_map = array('1080P' => 37, '720P' => 22, '480P' => 35, '360P' => 18, '240P' => 5, '270P' => 5);


I am going to implement these changes in youtube-subscriptions so I thought I would ask your oppinion on this.
I will give it a try on the ext version the next week and post back the results.
