I have started developing channel for news Chanel in native language , I got access to flv steaming link,
http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/web18/secure/feed03?e=2719319564%26h=4225779d9eb8c5199849c9aaea6500dc
I am looking for reference plugin which handles similar type of media, Can anyone point to it? Also I wanted to confirm that I don’t need site configuration as above link direct access to stream.
Also Plex Plug-in Kickstarter seems to be in broken state.
Thanks for you help, looking forward to plex channel development.
– Sachin.
Update:
I went through forum post and come up with following plugin code code,
<br />
oc = ObjectContainer(title1="IBN Marathi")<br />
oc.add(VideoClipObject(title="Play",<br />
items=[MediaObject(<br />
parts = [PartObject(<br />
key=HTTPLiveStreamURL("http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/web18/secure/feed03?e=2719319564%26h=4225779d9eb8c5199849c9aaea6500dc")<br />
)]<br />
)]<br />
)<br />
When I try launch plugin using browser, it crashes with "The media server is not responding" message, following is PMS log,

Streaming link is very much alive, I can play it using browser and vlc, not sure why I am getting 404 error in PMS, will continue my investigation.
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks,
Sachin.
Ok some progress, Above log suggests I needed URL service implementation to get Metadata, so decided to pass metadata object from plugin code, following is updated code,
def MainMenu():<br />
<br />
oc = ObjectContainer()<br />
title = 'title'<br />
thumb = 'http://cricscoreapplet.sourceforge.net/screenshot2.jpg'<br />
type = 'flv'<br />
id = '1'<br />
rating_key = '%s%s' % (type, id)<br />
<br />
oc.add(<br />
VideoClipObject(<br />
key = Callback(Lookup, title=title, thumb=thumb, type=type, id=id, rating_key=rating_key),<br />
title = title,<br />
thumb = thumb,<br />
rating_key = rating_key,<br />
items = [<br />
MediaObject(<br />
parts = [PartObject(key=HTTPLiveStreamURL(Callback(PlayVideo)))]<br />
)<br />
]<br />
)<br />
)<br />
oc.http_headers = {'User-Agent': 'Shockwave Flash'}<br />
<br />
return oc<br />
<br />

Now it seems transcoder is crashing, see following PMS log,

Any pointers?
Thanks,
Sachin.
Hi Sachin!
I have not tested this, but some changes are required:
Change
parts = [PartObject(key=HTTPLiveStreamURL(Callback(PlayVideo)))]
to
parts = [PartObject(key=Callback(PlayVideo))]
(in both the MainMenu and Lookup function).
HTTPLiveStreamURL is for HLS streams only. Your stream is just a “normal” flv over http one.
And change
def PlayVideo():<br />
return ("http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/web18/secure/feed03?e=2719319564%26h=4225779d9eb8c5199849c9aaea6500dc")
to
def PlayVideo():<br />
return Redirect("http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/web18/secure/feed03?e=2719319564%26h=4225779d9eb8c5199849c9aaea6500dc")
Thanks Sander1 for tips, I tried your suggestion but no luck. Now its failing with 302 error code(redirection), see log,

Feb 05, 2013 20:54:22:555 [9892] ERROR - [Transcoder] Exiting after failure.
But when I open link in browser, it direct Http 200 with xflv response, I don't see url is being redirected in firebug or Httpfox. Any idea why PMS is getting 302? Anything to do with setting Http Headers?
Thanks,
Sachin.
The 302 is PMS redirecting to the video url - with the Redirect() in PlayVideo. This is normal behaviour.
I forgot about this in my previous post, adding information to the MediaObject can help the client determine how to play back the video:
MediaObject(<br />
parts = [PartObject(key=Callback(PlayVideo))],<br />
video_resolution = '360',<br />
container = 'flv',<br />
video_codec = VideoCodec.H264,<br />
audio_codec = AudioCodec.AAC,<br />
audio_channels = 2,<br />
optimized_for_streaming = True<br />
)
I don't see "[Transcoder] Exiting after failure" error in log anymore but player fails to load media with "Error loading player: No playable sources found" error.
Media Container xml,

I am suspecting file="" is causing "Error loading player: No playable sources found" error.
After some changes in code, Plex Desktop client can play video(it does not need transcoding) but it fails on Roku XS as transcoder keeps crashing. I tried transcoder running from command line,

Hi,
*file* being empty is normal.
Got it, after checking other plugin's media container(for e.g. youtube) I figured it out. Also my plugin works fine on desktop client but it does not roku(it will my main platform) where transcoding is required.
Where can I see exact transcoder errors? In log I only see "Exiting after failure.".
Thanks for your help.
Sachin.
Based on Sachin and Sander's inputs I started with a channel to stream Flash over HTTP. For test purposes I am using the same URL feed as Sachin is using.
I get the following error when playing video Error loading player: No playable sources found
def Lookup(title, thumb, streamType, streamID, rating_key):
oc = ObjectContainer()
oc.add(
VideoClipObject(
key=Callback(Lookup, title=title, thumb=thumb, streamType=streamType, streamID=streamID, rating_key=rating_key),
title=title,
thumb=thumb,
rating_key=rating_key,
items=[
MediaObject(
parts=[
PartObject(key=Callback(PlayVideo))
],
video_resolution='360',
container='flv',
video_codec=VideoCodec.H264,
audio_codec=AudioCodec.AAC,
audio_channels=2,
optimized_for_streaming=True
)
]
)
)
return oc
def PlayVideo():
return Redirect("http://bglive-a.bitgravity.com/web18/secure/feed03?e=2719319564%26h=4225779d9eb8c5199849c9aaea6500dc")
I removed the meta data for the MediaObject and the
def Lookup(title, thumb, streamType, streamID, rating_key):

oc.add(
VideoClipObject(

thumb=thumb,
rating_key=rating_key,
items=[
MediaObject(
parts=[
PartObject(key=Callback(PlayVideo))
]
)
]
)
)
return oc
I get Cannot load M3U8: 404 not found

Any help would be nice as I have tried the URL service approach too with similar results.
