New Channel - Webisodes

Yeah Plex Web just uses the website, so it always works for Webkit even when other methods do not.  Thanks for doing the test. 

Since my last post, I have found out that Hulu has a problem with the site configuration on the back end.  The guys who manage that stuff are aware of it and are going to look into it.

When I try to play Hulu, I get sound but no video. Whether playing it thru Webisodes or the Hulu channel, so once they get the configuration fixed, in theory, the Webisodes Hulu section should work. Once they have it fixed, I will post here and let you know.

Thanks for the update. Happy to help test.  

So it sounds like we're having differing, but related, problems.  I'll wait to hear back I'll try it again.

You also may need to clean out any Hulu cookies in your web browser.  That causes errors with webkit shows. I couldn't watch any webkit shows yesterday (including netflix) and after I went into Firefox and deleted the cookies for netflix.com it worked again.

Just realized that on Plex/Web, you do not get the add shows icon. I am just curious if anyone knows if maybe the InputDirectoryObject is not compatible with Plex/Web?

EDIT:

I figured it out.  Looking at other channels, it does appear that user entry is not possible in the Plex/Web client.

I have added this channel to the regular channel section. So updates will be posted there now.

regular channel section. So updates will be posted there now.

Yay. My lazy procrastination pays off. I'd not taken time to update manually.

Now you've done it for me.

:P

No it is not added to the channels list for automatic update. As I state over there, it takes a bit too much manipulation and instructions right now to be in the Official Channel Store. I just moved the post to the Channel section of forum instead of here in the Channel Development section since this is mostly visited by those designing channels. You still have to manually update the channel. If there is enough interest in the channel, I can see if it Mike will add it to the Unsupported Appstore section.

Ah, apologies, misunderstood.

Edit: Oops. I was not going to post here anymore and only post in the Channel section now. Forgive me.

Attention Roku Users

Thanks to the wonderful Plex guys. The entry now works for Roku in the Plex Test channel!! All you have to do is update your Plex Test channel on the Roku. It should be version 2.6.5 now. Go to Preferences and it will be in the upper right hand corner. And the channel will allow direct input of URLs with the Roku.

Give me a little bit and I will clean the code up some and take away any of the extras no longer needed and release a new version that will hopefully be a little faster in the loading.

But it works now. Just open the Add Channel section, use your Remoku to cut and paste the URL into the Add Channel user entry, and choose done.

AGAIN THIS IS NOW IN THE CHANNEL STORE, SORRY CHOSE WRONG POST
