My Launch (yahoo launch videos) (1 Viewer)

is this legal or illegal

What do you mean? Why shouldn't it be legal?

Because you are parsing the yahoo site, and using its content without authorisation. I don't know if they care, though they have changed their systems a few times to try and avoid this.

I know on the internet you can find a procedure using mplayer to download the stream to a file, I think this is what it the changes are aimed at. MCE online spotlight in the USA has free access to these videos.

gregmac45 - I like coming back to this plugin.

Have you thought of a Buddy like image for the homescreen? Maybe music notes coming down and arrow to the buddy?

Honestly, I have not. I could use of of the existing MP icons. I'm open to icon donations .

This plugin rocks. Does it stream the video from yahoo only, or does it download to a temp file and load/play that? I tried searching for the wmv file but no luck.

I have 56kb as default and would like to set it a bit higher.

But when changing the bitrate or country to search at,
Plugin will not work anymore.
Can anyone confirm this?

confirmed

I have changed the settings by going editing the MYmusicvideosettings.xml in the plugins directory. All you have to do is change the setting you want from an N to a Y, and change the default from Y to N.

Can any of you provide more info on this bug?

I can't reproduce it on my system.
