offbyone, hope assist me with this..

i am trying to use this kind of logic in the skin:

<control>
<description>Description Value</description>
<type>textboxscrollup</type>
<id>0</id>
<posX>1420</posX>
<posY>430</posY>
<width>480</width>
<height>300</height>
<label>#OnlineVideos.desc</label>
<font>font13</font>
<visible>!Control.IsVisible(51)+facadeview.list</visible>
</control>

that means, i only want to show details (description) when in facade list view.. now, i restart mp (important), enter plugin, enter category, and video list is loaded (facade is in list view already) but nothing is shown in the description.. i have to cycle through the views (small thumb, large thumb and back to list) for the control with description to show.. i think it might be some problem with the initialization of the plugin but hope you can help..

in apple trailers, when you are in video view, there is only videoname property filled.. you go into details and back, now there is the description too! can you make it load the descriptions from the start?

thanks!

Hi, looks like you are right, I guess something must be initialized first. Anyone with a MediaPortal API docu around? I'll try to find out what needs to be called.
Apple Trailer Description: Yeah they are there only after showing the details. That it currently because each description is on a different page, so getting all trailers desciptions right away would make as many webrequests as videos are shown. So quite a slowdown. Maybe I can change it to get the info on selection, so it won't cause to much background http actions.

Another request offbyone. Could you add playlist support (ie add streams to a playlist)? Using YouTube for music videos now, and would like to put my favourites in a playlist. Of course I can download and put them in a playlist through My Videos, but streams support would be good too.

Hi,

I have some problems with apple trailers lately, even with the new 0.9.8. All older trailers work and most but not all of the new ones don't. I guess something has changed at apple and the problem is not codec related. Does anyone have any solutions? Thanks.

I have the same problem.. I hoped, that a Quicktimeupdate fix it ... but it didn't

Anyone an idea?

regards

Levi

Apple trailers is working here (tested most of the "just added" trailers) Im using Haali media splitter and codec from divx.com.
Unfortunately these codecs doesnt seem to work with youtube above "normal" setting.
btw the codec from divx.com isnt selected anywhere in the video settings, im using powerdvd 9 for all video encoding.
My codec fields in the online videos setup is greyed out and i can not change any codec. Why is that?

The codec fields only show the codecs related to the respective movie format. If a field in there is empty, you won´t be able to play that format. This is to control that you have all codecs necessary to play the different formats.

Cannot see any video...(not codec issue)

Hi,
great plugin! Now, I installed on two Vista (32 & 64) PC with latest MP beta and it worked out of the box.
Then I installed onlinevideos on my main media center PC running Xp32 and Mp 1.02 and it does not get any video.
The list are all empty, youtube, yahoo, funnyads, etc, only mtv works.....
Any idea on what I can check ? I'm a little baffled. The media center can connect to internet without any problem.
Any help will be appreciated !

I had this problem after I did an update from a previous version. Same results like you - empty lists for many sites.

Then I uninstalled the plugin completely, downloaded the mpi-package again and did a fresh install. Now everything works great Btw. this was also happening on my XP32 installation, with Vista64 the update was flawless...
