Please enable debugging so I can actually see what goes wrong in xbmc :)
The posted sullotion works for me :)

hippojay · November 21, 2012, 9:38pm

Err - hello… Not sure what reception I’ll get here :blink:

It’s been a while, as I’ve been busy with work, ill, busy with 3 kids and then ill again…

vandalon · November 21, 2012, 9:40pm

That's not good. I know 3 kids ( I have 2 ) can make you sick though :P
Get all the rest you can get. Don't worry to much about PleXBMC to much. Frodo is still just beta 1 :P

Get well soon!

Cheers,
Joris

Thanks

Can you PM me your default.py and I can try that?

hippojay · November 21, 2012, 9:50pm

Yeah, i saw Frodo had gone to Beta and was a little concerned. I believe they are stopping/changing multi source plugins (video and audio).

One good thing is that Frodo has a change I put in to make starting/resuming video much cleaner (you can now request directly for media to restart at a particular position, rather than my cludgy work around of play/pause/seek/unpause). Code needed to do this is very straight forward (probably only a few lines)..

Thanks

Can you PM me your default.py and I can try that?

It's attached with this message.
Your log still seems incomplete though.
It should contain DEBUG: lines.

dallasnights · November 21, 2012, 9:57pm

ok turned on debug for XBMC too sorry

http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=15186

Hope you can help me

Thanks

vandalon · November 21, 2012, 10:02pm

I don't see python crashing in your logs, sorry...

dallasnights · November 21, 2012, 10:05pm

can you pm me your default.py and I can try that

vandalon · November 21, 2012, 10:07pm

I thought I attached it before.
I'll try again.

dallasnights · November 21, 2012, 10:18pm

Interesting, now with your py file it sits there tries to load and then crashes XBMC back to the ATV2 main screen

http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=15189

BTW I donwloaded the Plexbmc file from the first page I think beta 3

vandalon · November 21, 2012, 10:22pm

You should 2.0 BETA 4.
https://github.com/hippojay/plugin.video.plexbmc/downloads

And apply my changes to it. (see my previous post in this threads for some other fixes).

Cheers,
Joris

dallasnights · November 21, 2012, 10:29pm

Thanks but nope still crashes XBMC to the ATV main screen

http://www.xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=15191

I am going to try a clean install and unistall PLEX

dallasnights · November 21, 2012, 10:44pm

no luck even after clean install, put my user name and password in the settings and it crashes XBMC

the.hartigs5_gmail.com · November 21, 2012, 11:24pm

Joris,

Confirmed your fix works for plexbmc plugin 2.0 beta 4. Works on all 4 of our xbmcbuntu boxes running Frodo beta 1. Thanks!

hippojay,

Love this plugin- it gives our family the best of both worlds being able to run cutting edge XBMC and still use Plex that we love and use like crazy on our mobile devices. Thanks!

hippojay · November 21, 2012, 11:43pm

Is that the params fix? If so that's good news and I'll add it - I've just set up an xbmcbuntu box to allow me to test against linux (it's the front room one, so gets a lot of usage)

I've compiled a few other fixes into the Eden branch, which I've loaded on my main box for testing. It's mainly a few fixes for issues reported (such as the subs loader not working on tv shows, and some odd screen metadata formatting). I'll put this up as Beta 5 at the weekend after I've tested a few of the main plugins (as I see AMT and youtube have stopped working for some reason). Core functionality seems to be ok, as I've been using the newer version pretty much every day without problem.

EDIT: looks like the youtube problem is a plex one, not a plexbmc one. AMT is broken because the API changed, just need to update it.

cesarvog · November 22, 2012, 12:22am

hippojay, thanks for your awesome plug-in. We use it almost everyday on different clients around the house. Thanks for taking the time to keep it working on Frodo as well.

Joris, thanks for your quick fix. I can confirm it worked on my Raspberry Pi, running Raspbmc RC5 (Raspian + XBMC Frodo Beta1 nightly, compiled Nov 20 + PleXBMC 2.0 Beta4). I will make the same changes on the Mac and AppleTV and report back if anything worth noting.

the.hartigs5_gmail.com · November 22, 2012, 1:11am

hippojay,

Yep the param_url fix that Joris posted on the previous page did the trick for Frodo beta 1. Looking forward to beta 5!

yakumo · November 22, 2012, 9:39am

After line 3016 in plugin.video.plexbmc/default.py add these 2 lines:
<br />
if param_url and param_url.startswith('http'):<br />
        param_url = urllib.unquote(param_url)<br />
This should fix it for frodo beta 1.

Cheers,
Joris

Works like a charm =)
Thank you.

Also great to see that Hippo is back in action.
