Hm not really an intended use case
Why would you need every site? Many are in languages you don't speak, many are geo-blocked in your region.
And new sites don't appear daily

Yes, this site is geo-blocked, so I can make some screenshoots for you, if this need

 

[offbyone]

No need for a screenshot, I trust you on that
I just published your updated site xml - thanks for supporting OnlineVideos!

 

[micmanm]

Thanks!

Hmm, why is this so strange? I don't care that I'm adding sites I never use.. OV is not getting slower or whatever wth all sites enabled, so I don't see the problem.. Now I need to add new sites one by one, and actually, there are a lot of sites I like to see (english and german sites aswell) I need to check for new sites a lot of times, and almost everytime I check, there are new sites I need to add.. So an option to add them all automaticly would be very nice to me and not very difficult to add right? Really not seen this feature request before? That really surprise me!

Maybe a better option, (but maybe more difficult to add is an option like; "Automaticly add sites from this language:.............")

If you don't care about what sites you have locally then simply click the "full update" button in manage sites and you have everything
(last button in the hidden menu in the default skin)

You can only add streams to a group

Perhaps you can do something like

  <Categories>
    <Category xsi:type="RssLink" name="Videos">
      <SubCategories>
        <Category xsi:type="RssLink" name="Title1">http://url1</Category>
        <Category xsi:type="RssLink" name="Title2">http://url2</Category>
      </SubCategories>http://www.rtl7darts.nl/video</Category>
  </Categories>

Hi, I gave this a try, and while I do get a TL OPEN category with a + next to it with a bunch of sub categories in the site configurator, but I get a "Error getting dynamic categories" when I try to open the "TeamLiquid" in Online Videos.


The site looks like this in the xml

    <Site name="Teamliquid" util="YouTube" agecheck="false" enabled="true" lang="en">
      <Description>StarCraft 2 and Dota 2 gameplay videos and interviews.
</Description>

Hm, somehow, the url of the subcategories isn't deserialized.
@offbyone: do you know what's wrong, and if this is at all possible?

 

[offbyone]

When a Category has SubCategories - the URL is ignored. Due to the fact that it is not used and a category with subcategories cannot have videos taken from an url.
But the actual problem here, is that the YouTube util is not implemented to handle static subcategories. The only way to get them is to add a main category with an url like this:
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/<username>/playlists

Then you'll get all public playlists of a user as subcategories automatically.

 

[doskabouter]

You could do it like this (based on genericsite)

    <Site name="Teamliquid" util="GenericSite" agecheck="false" enabled="true" lang="en">
      <Description>StarCraft 2 and Dota 2 gameplay videos and interviews.</Description>

And hit "Play all" at the videolist...
Not optimal perhaps, but it's a solution anyway
