Browse SVT and TV4 video archives

hakuna · 2005-12-23, 09:14

To XBOX there is a script to browse and view video contents of http://svt.se/svt/road/Classic/shared/mediacenter/ and http://www.tv4.se/bredband/

It would be really sweet if someone had the opportunity to fix this to MediaPortal!

This would certainly be a great feature for us swedes. I made a stand alone application to do this back in the myHTPC days. I tried to rewrite it as a MP plugin but after SVT changed their page layout I couldn't get it to work. I tried the xbmc script and it is brilliant, so obviously it is possible anyway! I think I will have another shot at it, I figured a modification to the My Trailers plugin perhaps could serve as the foundation for this plugin... Though I am having problem getting the latest source code right now, perhaps someone also is up for this challenge?

Have anyone done anything for this?

I'm working on one for SVT, have got basic browsing working and can start videos if they are Windows Media format. Can probably get you an early beta within a week or two.

Sweet!

Will it be for B2 only? I use PMIII.

Any news?

Haven't had time, I'm afraid. Anyway, here is at least something.
Note that there are several errors that need correction:

No support for Real Player files.
No error message when no Windows Media file exists
No OSD visible when playing the videos.
List disappears after video has played.
Back button does not take you one level up.

You can report other problems and I'll add them to the list.
I also have some plans for enhancements:

Skip the buttons to the left and have sort of a "Homepage" instead.
Add a bookmark function
Show more info about a program if that exists
Download images
Make a setup screen to configure some things
Add popup window for faster navigation

Anything else you want to add to the list?

I don't know when I will have time for corrections/enhancements, don't expect it too soon...
