Hi!

I'm having strange problems with the onlinevideos plugin:

No matter wich host I choose (Youtube, Apple, DasErste....) sometimes the videos won't play. After "starting" playback there is a freeze for about 2-5 sec and after that it says: "Abspielen nicht möglich" (german, wich means: Couldn't play) and below "Audio Codec: [nothing]"

The strange thing is, that if i try to play the same video again and again it sometimes works after a few times. Because of that I assume that it is not a codec problem. At the moment graph edit shows: FLV-Splitter (from 2009-04-28) and as video codec CoreAVC (1.9.5) and as audio codec ffdshow (rev3069). The graph screen is included in the log files. I even tried different codecs, with and without reclock and so on.. nothing worked. The most videos (if playback works) also have audio stutter within the first 3-5 secs.

In the attached logs you could see, that i started a video (successfully), stopped it after a few sec of playback. Then I started the SAME video again and I got an error as described above.

Has anyone an idea what could be wrong?

Kind Regards

Arne

    I get the same issue.. Some youtube works 100% but some get:
    can't play *filename*
    Audio Codec

    Weird thing is that it works if i change the onlinevideos settings for Youtube to "normal" instead of the standard "high".

    Try and see if it works for you. But I really prefer it in high if possible.

    Does not just happen in youtube either..


    mysetup is
    xps3 - mp 1.1 - saf19 (i tried the new test saf ,which was no better) - current online video.

    any ideas?

    the problem is mentioned in the onlinevideo sticky codec thread .. good to see we arnt the only ones with the prob.

    When I back out of MP there seems to be lots of white tray icons - is this HM splitter? They vanish when I hover over them. - this only happens after the videos will not play.

    an example of a file that will not play in high(but works in normal) is :

    I still have this problem. It is possible to save videos with onlinevides plugin on your hard disk. If I do that, I could play every saved file, no problems. But live streaming seems not to work reliable.

    I have a very fast internet connection (16Mbit), but maybe the buffer is to low, that MP try to start playback of the stream to early.


    I also recognized that some saved files from other hosters have no file-extenion. After attaching a ".flv" to the filename it works. But I think this is another hoster specific issue.

    Regards
