View Full Version : ExtremeFeeds.py improvement
Hi Folks,
i couldnt find out the author of the ExtremeFeeds script ;) but a small improvement will prevent the videos from hanging and frequently buffering.
Simply change line 214 in extremefeeds.py (within PlayScene(self)) from:
request = urllib2.Request(CONTENTURL+'?ext='+FEEDID+'&vol='+VOLUMEID+'&scene='+SCENEID)
to
request = urllib2.Request(CONTENTURL+'?ext='+FEEDID+'&vol='+VOLUMEID+'&scene='+SCENEID+'&speed=low')
(forget the newline above)
the additional "speed=low" seems to solve the caching problems and quality doesnt decrease at all (as far as i think)
Have Fun

yeah, but it made all of my videos EXTREMELY CHOPPY, gf says they're "unwatchable"
but havent run into a buffer underrun yet, good job, is there like a medium instead of low?

So, whats the concensus? Shoudl this be added? If so, i'll do so and update XBMCSCRIPTS but I honestly think the web site simply has a crappy connection and can't stream fast enough.
I also have a bunch more like this that I'll be putting out one of these days. I have to at least add some error checking to them before release. If there is enough interest in streaming content scripts like these I'll work on them more often.

yeah bro, these scripts are totally awesome. In my humble opinion, I dont believe this should be added. On account that, yes, it does provide a buffer underrun fix, but at the cost of the script not being fully functional.
I love using these script apps. Good stuff and good speeds on a good machine
keep up the great work man. RELEASE MORE, lol

Great work!!! Is there any possibility to use the cachedhttp.py with these scripts?

I'll look into it. I'm sure i can adapt to using it.

In looking at cachedhhtp I probably won't implement until I start grabbing thumbnails. For now it won't offer much and I would have to modify the module to allow me to specify a referer.

Hey guys
None of the feeds seem to work for me since the last 2 xbmc releases. Debug indicates malloc error but it appears like it cannot recognize the url. Is there something that needs to be done to get all these feeds to work properly on xbmc? I dont have this trouble with youtube or googlevideo. Just the ooba and extreemfeed..any help?
Huh... just discovered this script and it rules. I was wondering though how hard it would be to make an addition that allows the saving of the stream to the HD for watching later?
I've had a look at the script but I'm a perl guy not a python guy so it's a bit greek to me. I can see what it's doing but would it be hard to save the stream to HD? Where I am even in low quality the video stopps for buffering so often it's annoying. My GF gave up in exhasperation trying to watch some movies last night. If we could save em to HD then watch them when they are complete, that would be ideal. There are a few apps like this for PCs (asfsave, mimms etc etc)
Thoughts?

You could save it via a PC as I think this particular site streams via HTTP. My suggestion, get firefox, get 2 extensions, REFSPOOF (for spoofing referer) and Media Player Connectivity (allows you to use a full media player and see the actual media URL instead of playing media embeded in the page.

thebitjockey. explain how please. i get the 2 extensions.but when i put the web http://www2.extremefeeds.com is required a user a pass. to watch the content
Hey. I like the FullOnDvd script, but why does it keep buffering every 20 seconds? Is it the site, or the Xbox, or my settings, or something else? Can anyone shed some light on this?
TIA

Google "spoof extremefeeds" and you will find the answer. YOu need to know the right destination URL and the right REFERER URL. (there is one in the script).

Most likely the site. You could try to lower the quality. look for this line
SCENEIDSPATTERN = re.compile('<a href="index\.php\?page=stream&q=high&type=.*?&title=.*?&scene=(.*?)&session=.*?" class="sceneLink">.*?</a>') and change the "high" to "low" ( think that works)

For me, when search/replacing all the 'high' values to low, gives me an allmost unplayable video wich stutters allot.
You should beter change it to 'mid', works much better then high and low.
And for a easy way to download the movies to your HD (of your pc), try this:
Past thiese lines directly under the 'xbmc.Player........' part located at the end of the script
lf = open(TBN + 'streamlink.txt', 'a')
lf.write(MMSURLBASE+MMSURLS[0] + "\n")
lf.close()
Save, close and start the script...
Now, start playing the moovie you want, and when iit starts to play, pause the movie (or not, doesn't matter, just don't stop it)
FTP now to you xbox and grab the streamlink.txt out of your fullondvd-scriptdir.
Now copy the link you'll see thee, and paste it in somethink like Flashget to download it, or IE to play it directly.
Now it's save to stop the movie on your xbox
have fun :D
I keep getting this error anyone else?
Yah I tried running the script for the first time last night and I had the same problem
It had worked. I don't know what happened. Might be an adjustment of the website?

I fixed the problem by changing the referer in the script.
I used: http://www.extremefeeds.com/player/?ext=p-ma&volume=

me too! anyone know how to fix it? I have no clue! !!ANYONE!!
IIRC the script used a backdoor on a pay site which is technically illegal so was dropped.... theres plenty of mucky sites if you want them check out videomonkey.
