Icefilms and more

@noname:
By adding this plugin to the repository you wouldn't need an update mechanism inside your script, WDLXTV would simply download the latest version from the repository on boot or on demand...
This is the main reason we moved the plugins to their own svn repositories and created the web repositories.

I'm sure we can get you your own SVN account for the UMSP repo when b-rad is back, meanwhile you can maybe ask one of the developers to check in your plugin (bagira, shunte, PaulF, avkiev, eskay).
If you can't get anyone to do this contact me.

All the videos fetched by this plugin are hosted in megaupload. Few days ago, megaupload changed the design (and the html) of their site and an update of the plugin was needed in order to stream the videos. The plugin in your wd checks randomly this forum thread for new versions of itself. The message you have seen is noticing you that a new version of the plugin exists (updated Dec 12, 2011). The url http://goo.gl/750hz is just a shorted version of the url of this thread. Follow the instructions at the top and wget the new plugin file into /tmp/umsp-plugins/noname/noname.php.

Thanks!! that worked! hurah icefilms

Please, upload the plugin to the repo. I would thank an account for future updates.

I will mantain the internal update notice and a fresh link for manual download from the forum.

I've just added it to the repo/svn. Welcome to the team noname. Some of the veteran members can grant you upload rights directly in the svn.

just a bit of feedback, I got a chance to try this out tonight

first off, good work, particularly icefilms is a nice addition, my 1 thing with ice films the message "wait 60 seconds then press enter to Play" is there anyway to get rid of that
I understand there's some buffering going on, but what about
if somebody try's to play before the file is ready, maybe just inside the plugin reload the video, so that on screen it just appears to take a while to connect
currently clicking too soon, dumps me back out to the menu

only other idea I had, would be nice if a wec config option, could hide/disable channels based on language preference, nobody in my household speaks spanish so
and I'm sure there's spanish speaking households, that don't care for the english stuff

all in all, a nice addition

you can remove the channels you don't want by removing them from tmp/conf/umsp.php

you can simply delete the sections you don't want ("remove $myMediaItems[]" up to the closing ");"

delete this whole section.

$myMediaItems[] = array(
'id' => 'umsp://plugins/noname?php=series_icefilms',
'parentID' => '0',
'dc:title' => 'TV series icefilms.info (ENG)',
'upnp:class' => 'object.container',
);

You can also add a custom icon by adding the following line and pointing to an online picture (ie : tinypic, photobucket, etc..)

Code: Select all

       $myMediaItems[] = array(
          'id'              => 'umsp://plugins/noname?php=series_icefilms',
          'parentID'        => '0',
          'dc:title'        => 'TV series icefilms.info (ENG)',
          'upnp:class'      => 'object.container',
          'upnp:album_art'=> 'http://i42.tinypic.com/[mypicture].png'
       );

yep, I know how to remove entries, just thought it would be a nice config option to have it done

also some more testing I found a couple of streams that would not play in Icefilms tv

error message was regarding unsupported file type
my first guess there's some many servers here, it's possible there's a small amount of items than need transcoding mixed in with everything else

The "wait 60 secs.." step can not be removed as this is the usual wait time to download any file hosted in megaupload. I prefer this approach than introducing an sleep(60) in the plugin php code with a black screen until the download starts.

I'm working in the language setting but I will need a repo account to upload the changes.

The plugin does not work in preview mode as it breaks the wait time of megaupload. I have found some "unsupported file type" messages for this reason. Use the plugin only in list or thumbnail mode instead. If you think this is not the problem, please send me the titles of the videos to check myself.
