TV4 Play - tv4play.se (1 Viewer)

[J-B-N]

I can see a lot of requests about TV4 Play - tv4play.se but there seem to be no working solution. Perhaps we can fix something together?

I *think* we can find something interesting in these two examples:

<link rel="alternate" media="handheld" href="http://mobile.tv4.se" />
<meta name="title" content="Ap-tv med Zillah & Totte del 10" />
<link rel="image_src" href="http://cdn01.tv4.se/polopoly_fs/1.1542057!picture/3681986695.jpg_gen/derivatives/w219/3681986695.jpg" />
<link rel="video_src" href="http://www.tv4play.se/polopoly_fs/1.1615597!approot/tv4video.swf?videoId=1.1542057"/>
<meta name="video_height" content="321" />
<meta name="video_width" content="424" />
<meta name="video_type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash" />

<link rel="alternate" media="handheld" href="http://mobile.tv4.se" />
<meta name="title" content="112 - på liv och död del 8" />
<link rel="image_src" href="http://cdn01.tv4.se/polopoly_fs/1.1624106!picture/147178614.jpg_gen/derivatives/w219/147178614.jpg" />
<link rel="video_src" href="http://www.tv4play.se/polopoly_fs/1.1615597!approot/tv4video.swf?videoId=1.1624106"/>
<meta name="video_height" content="321" />
<meta name="video_width" content="424" />
<meta name="video_type" content="application/x-shockwave-flash" />


So a first try to understand the XML:
<Site name="TV4Play" util="GenericSite" agecheck="false" enabled="true" lang="sw">
<Configuration>
<item key="dynamicCategoryUrlDecoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>
<item key="dynamicSubCategoryUrlDecoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>
<item key="videoUrlDecoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>
<item key="nextPageRegExUrlDecoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>
<item key="prevPageRegExUrlDecoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>
<item key="forceUTF8Encoding"><![CDATA[False]]></item>

<item key="videoUrlFormatString"><![CDATA[http://www.tv4play.se/polopoly_fs/1.1615597!approot/tv4video.swf?videoId={0}]]></item>
<item key="videoTitleXml"><![CDATA[tease_txt]]></item>
<item key="videoThumbXml"><![CDATA[image_src]]></item>
<item key="videoUrlXml"><![CDATA[video_id]]></item>


</Configuration>

You cannot play a SWF directly, you need to find the link to the flv (could also be an rtmp stream link) that is played in the SWF player.

I understand, and that link is hidden in the SWF somehow. The only thing I have found online was RTMP Arkeoblog (swedish) where the stream is found using wireshark. So this exceeds my competence...

And there is no plan to support playing the SWF in their player I guess...

URL Helper (URL Helper - Find URL, Get URL of MMS, RTSP, Capture RTMP URL, Sniff stream URL, Get Link of FLV, MP4, MP3, WMV, RM, ...) works most of the time and gives you the RTMP-address. You can download a free 30-day evaluation to test.

Ah, but I guess there is need for a special site handler within Online videos... and it is over 10 years since I did some real coding... but then again it is doable for the right person at least.

StefanN have developed this type of plugin for Windows Media Center and is interested to find people to help with development of his plugin.
Maby it's possible to port this plugin to MediaPortal?

Play-kanaler (Windows Media Center Plug-in)

I'm mostly interested in "Kanal 5 play" (Webb-TV | Bsta TV-serierna frn Kanal 5 online | Kanal 5 Play), have not found any plugin for that :-(.

The MediaCenter plugin you posted does not contain anything for that channel.

What i can see then you have right about that, but maby there is some solution in the near future or it's posible to find one together with StefanN. I'm not a programer i just saw the thred question and then i fond this site that i linked to.
