How do I make OnlineVideos play in fullscreen by default when playing a video?? Like most other video plugins on MP? This plugin seems to be the only one that by default DOES NOT play in full screen.

I still can not get this to work. I can not get OnlineVideos to play in FULLSCREEN by default. Even worse, is that I do not have any button on my Microsoft Media Center Edition remote (version 2) that can toggle GUI and FULLSCREEN.

So close but no solution yet. Has anyone got this working yet?

Sort of fixed. I found a work around. If I press the green center square button on my MS MCE remote three times MP will change menu focus to the simple menu with a tool bar up top. Then I can swing over to the fullscreen button in the menu bar, and that works.

Hi

Does anyone know if this plug-in is still supported.

I use MP 2.0.4 I am unable to use 0.2.2.0 as it has many issues on my HTPC which don't appear to have been solved.

On MP 0.2.0.4 the plug-in works fine except for the fact that when you select search you do not get the virtual keyboard thus you can't search.

Has anyone solved this problem on 0.2.0.4... No suggestions to re-install please, I have done that several times and that is not the problem.

I have tested it on 0.2.2.0 and the virtual keyboard is available so it's also not the way I am installing it.

Thanks


yogiman!

read the discussion. The plugin IS NOT supported at all. personally I think that some plugins should start charging (make a payment via paypal) for better improved versions. If that is what it takes to continue development. I would pay.

ktjensen,

Obviously your entitled to your opinion and it's probably a valid one, but it kinda moves away from the whole ethos of MP don't you think. No don't answer that it's a retorical question.

I think I will pull the source code and have a look at it. It's a real shame, this is a really excellent plug-in.

Regards

Yogiman!

Yogiman!***

Retorical questions are very smart questions. I know that nothing in life is free. I still think that overall MP (and many of the specialized plugins) are at the point where developers need to start selling improved and highly functional optimized versions. Maybe they can not do that, due to the sources they use for data streams, or due to the sources of some of the code components. Yahoo Music Videos, and YouTube might get a little upset at these applications using their proprietary data streams, without their branded commercialized video windows.

Is anyone else having problems with the YouTube list item not grabbing a list of videos or is it just me. The other items (google, metacafe, etc...) grab the video list fine, it's just YouTube I am having a problem with. I know it was working previously because I watched some videos from YouTube then one day, recently, it wouldn't pull a video list anymore.

I dug around in the YouTube RSS feed and found what was causing the issue so I got the most recent source I could find on this forum (still kinda old I think) and applied a not so elegant fix, but it does work with YouTube once more. If anyone is having the same problem I listed above I will be glad to give out the new assembly, but I don't have anywhere to post it. If anyone can post the new assembly somewhere let me know and I will send it to you with whatever messenger you prefer.

Edit: Nevermind, didn't realize this forum had the ability to upload files. So, if anyone is having the same problem I listed above, unzip the attached file and place it in your "mediaportal\plugins\windows" directory and overwrite the file is currently there (you will need to close MediaPortal before doing this). This will only fix the problem I have listed above.

This plugin has been not been abandoned. I'm working on some new features and bug fixes. A new version should be released soon.

Terrific!!

Do you accept donations? Can I buy you a sandwich or a beer for making the plugin, and working it's development? :D :D
