Browse The Web / Webbrowser (3 Viewers)

I think it's the "Play" button that'll allow you to type an url (incl. http:// !)

Edit: too late

Indeed, I tried the "P" button as suggested in this thread. Thanks for your help.

yo, thanks for this - works like a charm for what i use it for.

i use this for my deezer integration in mp. and that works almost as expected.
normally i use chrome for this, and then a plugin that makes it possible to remote control the music,
on my android phone. And use the site in a remote desktop session.

But with this plugin i have it all together in my mediaportal instalation

ofcourse this browsetheweb plugin is not chrome, or is it ? haha i dont know but this is the plugin for chrome

also i found a firefox plugin

http://remoteless.no/deezer/index.html

you guys have any idea of i could make something like this work in this browser ?

thanks all for your time

Well, it's based on the firefox core, so you can try installing the firefox plugin. You might have to go enable plugins in btwebprefs.js, see the FAQ in the first post for details.

Good luck!

hey let me try that, thanks for your reply

[edit]

ok, cant get it to work, the plugin for firefox that is. But i found a work around. [offtopic]

i just start a chrome session on the background, wich lets me remote control deezer on my smartphone.
still use browsetheweb when i want to control dezeer directly in mp.

Have you tried creating a btwebprefs.js as specified in the Faq in first post?

 

[sunshineboy10]

Thanks for you answer.
I have done this:

• How to install/enable flash?:
  • Go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/otherversions/
  • Select OS
  • Select Flash player for other Browsers
  • Don't forget to uncheck McAfee
  • Download and install
  • Then enable it by creating a file "btwebprefs.js" in the mediaportal programdata folder (same folder as mediaportal.xml), and adding a line user_pref("extensions.blocklist.enabled", false);
• I still can not opnen the link. can you open it?

Have you installed the plugin needed for that page on the pc you're using mediaportal on?
Best way to do this (assuming you've successfully completed the above steps), is (In firefox, on the mediaportal pc) go to http://engv.no-ip.biz:8181/plc/webvisu.htm and follow the steps on the website.
After you've completed them, it should work in mediaportal.

At my pc, I've seen the spinning java thing (for a really long time), after that, some message about blocking potentially dangerous plugins, then after a while, a java exception (also in the browser), then click reload.

After that, It gave me a black screen in mediaportal (but in browser it worked). Possibly because of the java error, or being a very slow virtual machine, I don't know at the moment.

Can you give me an update on how far you're getting with this?

Hi guys, I need your opinion on something.

1: It always bothered me that when using "use mouse to browse" the keybindings (f.e. for zoomin/zoomout, show status bar etc) are hardcoded instead of configurable through browsetheweb config/mediaportal config/keys and sounds.
I can fix this by letting mediaportal convert the keypresses to actions and act on those, but then, all keypresses (including typing text in an inputfield, or using keyboard shortcuts in some kind of flash/interactive webpage) are converted into actions, and that obviously doesn't work.
Also can do some middle ground here, f.e. don't convert all keys, only the ones you wouldn't use when typing in some text (although which exactly could be hard to determine).
Perhaps I can detect if an input field is active, and don't convert to actions in that case, or only convert to actions is ctrl is pressed or something completely different...

2: regarding flash videos (when not using "mouse to browse")
Now the number is placed above the video, and, consequently, the video is pushed a little downwards. The thing with that is, that you hardly see the bottom part (including buttons for full screen/ad skipping etc). I have changed it a bit, so that the video isn't pushed down anymore, and the number is semitransparantly placed in the top left corner of the video. Should I keep it this way?
