I am in the US and am not able to play any of the streams from my web browser …
So I have to guess whats happening 🙂
Inside the SITE-CONFIG file I would create a STATE of “LOADING” as you did …
[codebox]
[/codebox]
The COMMAND line you had in your site-config is something which is coming from PLEX (==\> user pressed the PAUSE button)

>
I like your site definition as you use WILDCARDS for the URLs and the PLAYER.
> [@](#):

> \
> plugin=“iview\_209\_loader.\*swf”
>
> initialState=“loading”
>
> version=“1.0”\>
```
```
If the size of the FLASH changes, you can use RELATIVE coordinates (e.g. 10 Pixel from the bottom ==\> y=-10)
The HEIGHT of the flash can be left open with a HEIGHT-SETTING of "0" the Framwework will get the correct info.
I do not know if you have defined other CONDITIONS / STATES.
I would define the various conditions of PLAY / PAUSE / END etc. with the color of a pixel (or multiple of them combined with or )
Once you have this, you can have the FW test any of these and move from one STATE to the next.

Using this, it does pull in the flash and display the right stream… however, I think the stream actually does a redirect (or something similar) to a summary page. I’m fairly certain it is using the correct URL as pasting it into a browser it will start the right stream, but only the second time around… (hard to explain!)
Ryan, please can you supply one of these URLs ... I would like to give it a try too.

I notice for example

No worries all to do with the geo location ip checks all these sites do. Really appreciate the help tho!
Have implemented you suggestions and think you are on the right track but I don't think the condition is
matching as I see an endless 'Executing Moving to state loading' on the Plex Media Server console. But
has atleast moved me more forward than I could get.

Thought that maybe the case. Cann't wait for the more extensive documentation around all this!

Nothing magic here just copied others. Would clean things up once it's all working

I do but thought I need to get it playing initially first
Thanks again for all the help

Unfortunately I can not see much … (being in the US)
but it looks to me that the [http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/program/371393](http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/program/371393)
leads to the “start-page”
On the start-page, once you click on the episode, you get to this page:
[http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/view/371393](http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/view/371393)
so the request does not necessarily get REDIRECTED, but rather the system checks, if you are all set for iView (e.g. it is fully loaded etc.) and in case you are not ready … you get sent to the start-page first.
Another possibility might be that your HTTP headers will be checked, if you got to the playable video through the star-page or not … if not … you get presented with the start page.
Anyhow this should not be a big problem, if the SITE-CONFIG file is checking for this and clicks in the right place to get the iView stream started.

Please be careful HOW you get the COLOR info … I used a windows system first … to do the screen shots elicit colors etc. …
Only the size and locations I got right … but when it came to colors I was totally off … my MAC has different colors … thus I could not get my site-config to work … until I did a screen shot on the mac and used the MAC OS tool to get the color codes of the location I was looking for.
Sometimes it helped that I gave a few color options and have the FW look for any possible match … this way … if I was off a few pixels … I still got a match.

Hi mio,
Thanks again for all the pointers and help but still seem to be having issues. Been very busy the last week or so but will hopefully have time to again soon. Would be
great to have some sort of tool that would capable the screen interaction and use that as the basis for developing the plugin.
Cheers
Chris

Are you able to attach the site config xml file that you're currently working with? I'll have a look and see if I can get it working (though you probably know more than me about it now).
Cheers,
Paul

Thanks Paul that would be appreciate! I think once we can get a working site configuration code we are well on the way to a working plugin.

Very interested in this working… and happy to help if I can.
These guys have worked out how to pull flash streams off the iview direct, techniques are in there to pull the token required and how to check whether your ISP has an unmetered peering agreement, or to pull from akamai.
I don’t know my way around python, but am keen to help out… can bash some stuff.

get the bash version (you’ll need to change the token url on line 128 in the bash version)…
curl -q [http://www2b.abc.net.au/iView/Services/iVi…shaker.asmx/isp](http://www2b.abc.net.au/iView/Services/iViewHandshaker.asmx/isp) \> auth.xml
Then I guess you can get plex to play the flash streams directly??

I still work with AMS6 and never worked with LUA. Its not available in my setting.
I think I dont use the right terms to find out how to get a lua -plugin into my AMS6.
Could someone guide me how to get things running, because I would really like to use this plugin lua with this great convertiontool for my projects.
Information would be very welcome
