escape on your keyboard or back on your remote.

This plugin does not work right with the 0.2 and stable Patch 1. It will crash when playing through a playlist.
The problem seems to occur in mediaportal's g_player.playAudioStream(). I will look for a solution ASAP.

It works fine with the nightly svn release of mediaportal-svn-07-08-2006--01-02-Rev9399.

Thanks keitaro for your help in identifying this issue.

A new version of MyMusicVideos has been released.
New:
- Yahoo Genre Added.
- Multiple Favorite list Added. (Each Family member can have their own Favorite list)
- Playlist with shuffle,repeat

Changed:
- video lists are no longer all downloaded at the same time.
- Play All uses the playlist to play the videos
- Country and Bitrate options moved to the plugin configuration

TODO:
- Internationalize the labels and buttons
- Artist biography
- Show Artist name and song name below the small video screen instead of the url.

Here are a couple screenshots:



Update 07/08/2006 - The new version can be downloaded here

Working great, thanks for this plugin.

I have couple of other problems, once i entered into fullscreen mode, i do not know how to come back to menu screen using key board(i do not have remote control). and i donot know how to jump to next clip....

When i click 'play all' button in 'favirotes' window , it is still playing top 100 songs instead of playing my favirotes. i do not know how to add the current playing clip to my favirotes without stoping that clip.

I know it is still under developing stage, i just want to make sure that i am not missing anything of this plugin's features.

thanks again

Note: i think i tried 'Esc' to go back to menu window, I will try again in the evening and let you know, thanks.

I did this and added the skin file therefore to svn - please send any updates to me if you want it updated there.

- Show Artist name and song name below the small video screen instead of the url.

This gui property is also necessary for external display plugins if you e.g. use a LCD/VFD Display.

The plugin itself is working almost nicely. I had to press "Next Page" sometimes or no results were shown (Some people report similar issues for my weather).

Are you willing to work for fixes if some bugs occur in the future and put a little effort into it?
I'd be glad to help you integrate this plugin into the official distribution then.
Tell me about your opinion and I'll ask the team if there are other things which should be considered before.

P.S. Could you please relocate the settings file to MP's root dir?

I love this plugin. I currently use Meedio and am looking to move over to Media portal fully. In Meedio's music video plugin, the author put an option to send the Yahoo music link to the program Nettransport for download. I'd love to see that option for this plugin....Is this possible? Thanks!

Thanks Greg, working great!

I was wondering how you do this? Can you give us some details?

Theres lots of websites with lots of streaming content. It would be nice to grab those links and organize them automaticly in MP.

Im sure theres some special system on Yahoo but it can help development of similiar plugins.

Br,
Johannes

I don't plan on adding a download feature for legal reasons.
You can use the "favorites" feature to store links to favorite videos instead.
