You'll need to set log level to debug, reproduce the problem then post your Airplay.log so I can see what's going on

Thanks here you are.

It looks like their server refuses the connection - not much I can do about that, probably related to the second part of my post here.

Firstly, I'd just like to congratulate you on an awesome plugin.

This issue is probably like similar posts, but thought it worth a mention. I have been using the YouTube app to AirPlay on to my HTPC. This works really well, until I strike an ad at the beginning of the video. It will play for a few seconds, then go back to the beginning and keep doing that in a loop.

The workaround is to cancel AirPlay, wait for the video to begin, then hit AirPlay again.

Just wondered if anybody else has struck this?

It will play for a few seconds, then go back to the beginning and keep doing that in a loop.

I've fixed this in the next version It was caused by a rounding error of a few milliseconds in the playback time, absolute nightmare to track down!! Playback ending will be properly handled too so you can just press stop in MP when the ad is playing and it will move on to the actual content (even before YouTube allows you to skip it ).

Thanks, that's great news. I hope I don't sound over the top when I say that this has been life changing. It's replaced the Onlinevideos plugin and also the Rockstar plugin which I found clunky anyway.

What's the release date for the new version?

Really useful plugin!!! Love it! Been waiting for it a long time!

One problem here: Screensaver starts even if video is playing.

One problem here: Screensaver starts even if video is playing.

This should now be fixed, can you update to latest version and give it a try.

Ah, didn't think about photos - is it working OK for videos though?
