Hi, dukus!!!
You never stop surprising & huge thanks for that

One prob, not possible to stop when playing actually video disappear but music still plays on.
Else cool tohave a plugin like this again.

Regards

I think this is a directshow filter problem, but i'n not sure, in a next day i try to play with flv playback and solve somehow this problem

So many nice plugins coming to life lately.

Haven't tried it yet but, a million! -(My four year old daughter really missed seeing Madonna "on demand" )

Nice work!
I see the same problem as ronilse. I had to install flv splitter to be able to play videos.

Hi Dukus,

Another great plugin, only just skined RadioTime for Aeon, done this as well now....as far as I can with currently exposed info...will gladly help with skins files if you want.

trevor, just tried your skin-file in Aeon-wide. It's looking good. One bug though, when using list mode there is no way of telling which item is selected.

Suprised it worked at all....forgot to include the common.widow.short.xml...something I hav been wrking on for Aeon. Was l only intending to show a screen shot and tacked the xml just before I sent it...

Included are both required files but I take it you are not seeing a highlight bar? All looks ok this end....

Cheers...

Trevor

[Seidelin]

I can confirm that it works much better when both files are used

I have the same problem and another one: if I have pureaudio plugin enabled it tries to play the stream as audio stream instead of flv video.

Thanks for the great plugin.
