View Full Version : [RELEASE] Justin.tv (Video) Plugin
Justin.tv Video Plugin for XBMC
http://i413.photobucket.com/albums/pp220/stackedxbmc/logo_for_blog.png
The plugin indexes video streams from Justin.tv. At the moment, the plugin only plays live streams and not video clips. I've experienced a few times where some streams don't play or xbmc crashes. I think it has something to do with Justin.tv and not XBMC. So, I'm still trying to work out the kinks. Other than the random crashes, the plugin works as if you were on the actual site. I will be updating the plugin frequently, so I recommend using the SVN Repo Installer update feature. Enjoy. :grin:
Check out the ChannelSurfing.net (http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?p=436851) and ATDHE.Net (http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=58669) plugins for streaming live sports.

Well done, this is great and thanks for uploading the version of xbmc with the fix. Just hoping someone at team xbmc can fix the bug with plugins in library mode, I've submitted a ticket on TRAC but don't know if it's just an issue for xbox or whether other platforms have this problem too? Basically the plugins show the correct text for the fist directory and the sub-directory but then everything after that just gets labeled as the plugin name (in this case all the links just show up as Justin.tv). This happens with the Best Of ITV and MTVN plugins too so it must just be a problem with anything that has more than 2 sub-directories. If anyone wants to follow the progress of the ticket it's #6683. Well I'm off on holiday for a week now so fingers crossed someone may have come up with a fix by the time I get back.

this is a great plugin.
so much variety, and i just love the live feel to it.
thx!
For Xbox users, if you're experiencing any audio problems with the streams, you need to update xbmc to rev20937 or higher.
[Update r1046 (2009-06-10)]
- fixed plugin to work with Justin.tv recent changes
- Added view and viewers count
- Added support for all the available languages on Justin.tv (see plugin settings)

Thank you, I've loved this plugin since release
I downloaded it about 45 minutes after it had been released.
I would love to see this for livestream.com formally mogulus.com, I have tried to hack up your plugin to work with the site but have not coded in python before... livestream.com does have a cdn just like justin.tv as well as the other links you've used in your plugin. I'm 99% positive that it would work..
I'd love it if you would either look into it or give me some information on how your plugin works, who knows I might be able to get it working.....

I really don't have the time to do a request. I have to many plugins to keep updated as it is. Sry.
To get started, get Wireshark and sniff the livestream packets (http://cdn.livestream.com/grid/PlayerV2.swf?channel=parosweb). Look for the rtmp parameters and start testing with a script (http://pastebin.com/m4b5c2ce5).

Thanks :) big help hopefully I can get it going
I love this plugin! What would make this great though is if it had "now playing" information in the title. Thanks for this plugin, it is my currently my favorite one.

Can you show me what you're talking about?
The plugin is already displaying the title and the status of each channel. If you're talking the "!nowplaying" or "!nextplaying" commands, then no, its not possible.

What I'm talking about is if you go to this page for example...
http://www.justin.tv/directory/gaming
For each channel, you see a thumbnail on the top, right under it is the name of the channel, and under that it tells you what is currently playing (usually), with Viewers, and views under that.
What I am talking about for the plugin, is to see what is currently playing. Right now, the plugin only has the name for the channel and views and viewers.

This is an awesome plugin although when in library mode the subfolders don't display the correct information - all the links just come up as justin.tv. I thought this was a bug with xbmc but read a comment on the tvshack thread which made me think it could be something else...
"can you please make sure to set the video info tag's title entry for the actual streams? that way, things show up nicely in library mode as the label is not used there, as it is in file mode. there are reasons for this and i don't really feel like adding a workaround just to fix the plugin node... "
Now I have no idea about programming so this means nothing to me but maybe it makes more sense to you?
Cheers

Fair enough, thanks for the quick reply. The comment was from Spiff #64 in this thread http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=33160&page=7
I guess it must be a glitch with xbmc, I did create a ticket on trac a while a go so maybe someone at team xbmc will have a look at that sometime.

Awesome! Much better. Thank you!
I know this is wishful thinking, and I doubt this is even possible with a plugin, but would it be possible to add a feature to where you can stream the archived portions of a channel? You know how if you put "#from-16.00,June-19-2009" for example after a channel link on the website, you can start the channel from any time you want from the last 7 days, granted the channel was up at that paticular time. That feature would be amazing. I know nothing about making plugins, so I have no idea if something like that is even possible on xbmc, but if it is, that would rock.

...I don't think its possible. The website runs scripts to match your requested start time with available clips near that start time. And I can't do that in a plugin. But you could browse and play archived 5 min clips based on start time, date, and channel. example (http://www.justin.tv/archive/list?date=2009-06-19&channel=renatus_). Though, I think this would be useless.

Damn, that's too bad. Still a great plugin though. Thanks!
Hi everybody. First of all, many thanks for the plugin, which is really a nice idea.
I tried to use it in my environment, OS X 10.4.11 on a Mac Mini 1st generation (PPC), where XBMC works well, but many plugins from xbmc-addons do not work well.
This is the case of the justin.tv plugin too. Everything is fine as far as I browse the contents, look at the previews and select a stream to view. When I try to select one, the whole system freezes and I am not able to do anything else then shut down everything (at least XBMC if I can succeed at least in using mouse and keyboard).
Obviously I wasted quite a lot of time to reinstall XBMC, python, flash plugin (even if I guess it was useless) and change versions of XBMC more than once, before writing here.
So is it something peculiar of the PPC (version 9.04.1 SVN-20686M)?
please find attached the log in http://pastebin.com/m696ef66a, where
08:08:54 T:2684415368 M: 26865664 DEBUG: Playback has started
ironically, is the moment when I shutdown XBMC.
Thanks in advance for your support.
Read the first post of this thread, I made the font red so you can't miss it. :;):
Thanks a lot for you help.
I checked the package for mac osx in http://www.sshcs.com/xbmc/ and found what I suspected: that installation is not for PPC so it will not install, as far as I know. Obviously I might try to build it from the sources but for me - who I have never done it before - it would be along run and with an uncertain result.
So, it would actually be very useful if someone more used to this could put the last build for PPC: I guess many people like me want to re-use old Mac Minis that would otherwise work really great as Media Centers.
Second thing: I've noticed that you put a note also on the need to copy over the .../XBMC/system/players/mplayer/codecs directory. That contents is actually missing in my installation, is it something like http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/essential-ppc-20071007.tar.bz2 (or http://www.mplayerhq.hu/MPlayer/releases/codecs/all-ppc-20061022.tar.bz2), which I need to put on the codecs dir?
thanks again!

thanks again!
I'm not sure if those would work. Try and see. I usually just copy the codecs from the t3ch or win32 builds.
Folks,
XBMC does NOT use mplayer anywhere except on Xbox. First post should probably be updated for that.

Stacked,
Thanks for sorting out the problem with library mode not showing correct text. I inserted the code you mentioned on TRAC ticket #6683 into a few plugins and they are all working great now. Any chance you could update your plugins with the correct code in place? Cheers, Justin.tv is excellent now I can use it in library mode.

Yeah, I was planning on cleaning up the code on my plugins and fixing that library problem.

This if of course a super awesome plug in, i have one thing that's bugging me though, when i add a specific user it goes in and streams like its supposed to, however it forgets about that user as soon as i stream another user, do i need to fix some file permissions or is that the way it works or ?
From the way it looks in sources.xml im lead to believe you can only have one user "?mode=5" would love it if you could have more "custom users"
Thanks in advance, and again, it rocks !!

No, that's how it works. I meant to add a user history but never got around to doing so. I'll add this feature to the next update. While your waiting, you can do a workaround that would suit your need. Just search the user, then select the user and add it to your Favorites. So you can see all your custom users on your favs list.
btw, welcome to the XBMC forums :grin:

Absolutely awesome plugin. I do, however, have a question. On many of the channels I am viewing, I get quite a bit of choppiness. One I especially notice it on is under Entertainment, Comedy, Animation Heaven. Is anyone else getting the chop? It works great on my PC. I'm thinking the quality of the channel is just too high for the XBOX XBMC.

Yeah, some of the HQ (or HD) channels is too much for the xbox.

Actually, I found that it was my wireless causing the problem. As soon as I ran a network cable to the Xbox, 99% of the channels began working perfectly. My wife and I love you for this plugin, Stacked :)
Dear All,
I've a couple of request /bug:
1. is it possible to save a search? It's annoing to retyte the searc on the xbox without a real keyboard.
2. It seems that the pluging can't recognise the channel description. it's always "justin.tv"
Thank you

Stacked has recently found a fix for the channel descriptions not working although as far as I'm aware he hasn't had chance to upload the new working plugins. Stick this in the default.py of any plugin that has the same problem and it should fix it: "xbmcplugin.addSortMethod( handle=int( sys.argv[ 1 ] ), sortMethod=xbmcplugin.SORT_METHOD_LABEL )"
I've added it to the Justin.tv, ITV Catchup and MTVN plugins and they are all now displaying correct text. Think I added the code just after the import section at the top and all is working for me.
Great!! now descritption are working again.
Any chance to implement the saved search function (like youtube script/plugin)
thank you
L.
I was planning on fixing that problem and adding that feature to all my plugins that have a search function. I wanted to do the updates all at once instead of having multiple updates...I'm going to have time tomorrow, so check SVN later tomorrow.
Wow looking forward to a new update...!!
thank you

[Justin.tv v1.1]
- fixed Library mode problem
- added saved search results feature
- added a few menu icons and updated Justin.tv icon
- added "Edit" and "Remove" context menus to search results page
- updated version number to 1.1
Please let me know if there are any problems, because I didn't have alot of time to check for errors. btw, Justin.tv has been acting slow lately, so this might cause the plugin to crash randomly.
Hi,
I've found a bug on the saved search:
Ff you try to use a saved search it will give to you:
Error:Invalid user or not a live feed.
Any Idea?

The plugin isn't working for me anymore. I've tried deleting all the files and reloading them, but I just get an error. All my other plugins work. Does this maybe have something to do with the website redesign?

I just sogned up to say thanks very much as well....I am realivly new to XBMC, but have been hoping for a while that someone might create a plugin for justin.tv!
I just cant wait to try it, as I am having a few problems at present trying to get my build up to date!
Can someone help me please?
With the original installation I used a build from T3CH here: http://t3ch.yi.se/
Now I want to use the latest build from these guys (as suggested) here: http://www.sshcs.com/xbmc/
I followed the instructions on the wiki: http://www.xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Installing_XBMC_for_Xbox#Upgrade_XBMC_for_X BOX
But nothing seems to have happened, when I check the system details I am still on a November 2008 build. Can anyone point me towards a more detailed guide?
I am also confused by the default.xbe file. I could not find this on my XBMC setup at all....so I just left it out. Everything I have read online about the default.xbe has confused me!
Thanks all
@MickeyFinn6999
Welcome to XBMC. :;):
First off, can you continue this by making a thread in the XBMC for Xbox Specific Support (http://xbmc.org/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=7) section, you will get more help there. I would rater keep this thread clean of unrelated topics.
Anyways, you need to find the old XBMC installation directory on the xbox and replace. Common places are:
* "E:\XBMC\"
* "E:\APPS\XBMC"
* "F:\XBMC\"
* "F:\APPS\XBMC"
I would reccommend connecting to xbox via ftp from a different dashboard (EvoX, UnleashX, etc), then deleting the XBMC folder and replace it with the updated XBMC. If you want, you should backup the userdata folder to save all your old settings and library. So for example, if "E:\XBMC\" was on your xbox, you would just replace it with the "XBMC" folder from the T3CH build or sshcs.
After the update, you can then install the Justin.tv plugin from the SVN Repo Installer (comes pre-installed on the t3ch builds) or by manually downloading the plugin and placing it in ...XBMC\plugins\video.
Good Luck :grin:

Go to "User Search", enter the exact user name and if the user's channel is live, the video should stream.
For some reason, the plugin is not working for me. It loads up and shows all the categories, but when I pick a category there are no videos in it. When I pick "all" only 1 channel shows up.

I see what your talking about. I got that channel to work but when I tried it again, xbmc crashed. I'm not sure whether Justin.tv streams servers are just slow and causing xbmc to crash or that they changed the rtmp urls.
Just wait a while a see. Justin.tv is going through a lot of changes.

what xbmc build are you using? You need XBMC rev20937 or higher.

Im just having one issue, when i first picked all channels it worked fine but somehow it saved the results and the same channels with the same thumbnails come up everytime,sometimes a few of the channels change but a majority stay the same.Am I doing something wrong or is it jtv? i have the latest version of xbmc. I appreciate any help and thanks again for the plugin!

The plugin scrapes the jtv site, so whatever channels is currently listed on jtv, shows up on the plugin results.
But, there is a small issue with the thumbnails. jtv usually updates the preview thumbnail on every channel every minute or so. Since XBMC caches thumbnails, the thumbnails won't update to the current jtv thumbnail. I need to find a way to make xbmc refresh the thumbs.

As long as the thing works, and it seems to be doing that just fine.
Now I cant wait for the football seasons to start again.

Yea, same here. I only made this plugin to watch live sports. :rofl: I'm watching for the nba season to begin.
i diddnt have this problem before..? it worked fine until jtv changed theyre website.it isint working right i have the same channels everytime and channels that should be on the first page arent theyre results i had from days ago. im just gunna reinstall the plugin and clear my cache and see what happens.(no luck...same channels i got from the first time i ran the plugin are still there) any suggestions?

It should be working. Clear the cache and get the latest update (v1.4.5) from the svn repo.
installed the update but im still getting the same channels and thumbnails from when i ran it the first time.it sucks that jtv changed theyre site around i had no problems before then =[ let me know if u can figure it out. thx for the help!

I know there is a problem with the thumbnails updating, but there is nothing wrong with the channels. Browse to a section on jtv on your computer, then go to the same section on jtv (at the same time). Compare the channel titles and see if they match up.
Everytime you navigate forward on the plugin, it's actually downloading the current justin.tv page. So you should only be seeing whats on justin.tv.
i apologize you are right...it just got confusing with the same thumbnails lol sry bout that...and thank you very much again for the plugin!!
[Update 7/17/09 v1.4.6]
- fixed thumbnail problem; cache thumbnails are deleted when plugin starts
:rolleyes:...I'm hoping there are no more bugs.
Stacked, I wanted to tell you personally thank you very much man.I know you have put a lot of work into this plugin and I'm positive we all appreciate the hard work.I don't have cable so this is the next best best thing and it is all I use so once again Thank You! ...(i hope I'm not overdoing it XD)

i updated the justin.tv script manually and now im getting this error
http://i32.tinypic.com/wivz9z.jpg
im using the latest version of xbmc for windows
XBMC_for_Windows-9.04.1-repack2
XBMC_for_Windows-9.04.1-repack2 is somewhere around rev 20850. It doesn't include the needed updates for this plugin. You can get win32 builds here (http://xbmc.org/forum/showthread.php?t=35452) and you can find updates for other platforms here (http://xbmcsvn.com)
btw, has anyone notice that some channels cause xbmc to crash? I found a solution to the problem, but I want to make sure that other users are having the same problem.

Me to.But if am correct this can happens with all rtmp streams .Most of the time when a stream is down.And instead of a message can't open file or something it freezes xbmc.Got this by the way also on windows and screen turn white and crash xbmc.

Yea. It seems to be happening when xbmc connects to a rtmp stream and the NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound event is sent back. I think xbmc continues to try and play the stream even though it doesn't exit. This causes the crash. The server is also suppose to send the NetStream.Play.Stop event to end the rtmp connection, but for some odd reason some rtmp streams like justin.tv don't. The workaround that seem to work was to make NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound one of the events to close the connection, preventing the crash.
line 665 from rtmp.cpp
else if (method == "onStatus")
{
CStdString code = obj.GetProperty(3).GetObject().GetProperty("code").GetString();
CStdString level = obj.GetProperty(3).GetObject().GetProperty("level").GetString();
CLog::Log(LOGDEBUG,"%s, onStatus: %s", __FUNCTION__, code.c_str() );
if (code == "NetStream.Failed"
|| code == "NetStream.Play.Failed"
|| code == "NetStream.Play.Stop"
|| code == "NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound") // I added this line
Close();
}
I added that line above and it caused xbmc to stop the rtmp stream just like if the NetStream.Play.Stop event was sent and there wasn't a crash.
http://xbmc.org/trac/ticket/6924
The crashing problem was fixed. You will need to update XBMC to rev21803 or higher. Xbox users will have to wait until the fix gets merged into the xbox trunk.

Dear All
I've T3CH XBMC 2009-06-27 SVN rev21142 running on a xbox connected to a LCD32".
in the system setting I've enabled 720p and 1080.
With this configuration the plugin is unable to play any stream.
If I uncheck the 1080 and I keep only the 720p everything is working; unfortunately my samsung LCD has got some bad quality problem with this confguration (it seems with "no focus")
any idea??

I updated to the newest xbmc build on xbox, and now no videos work. Audio will play on half of them, but no video. When the stream starts, the info bar pops up(which never used to) showing the thumbnail, and says "app" as the title. And I am getting a lot of freezing when I try to load up channels.
I've also noticed thumbnails are not refreshing. Many have not changed for days.

I didn't see anyone mention anything about only audio working. Thumbnail and freezing problems have been mentioned, but I'm only bringing that up now because I am using the newest build of xbmc and the newest plugin version, and I am still I am having those problems as of today, so either the new xbmc build screwed it up, or they are not completely fixed. It was working fine before I updated the build, so I think that is the problem.

I never experience the audio problems. Is it happening to all channels or some? Try using the win32 build (http://danielpatton.com/user-accounts/XBMC-updates/) on the same channel that has the audio problem. I want to test if it's just a issue with the xbox.

in the lastest svn build for XBOX ONLY r21810, the DVD player is broken. everything using the dvd player only plays the audio and will show visualizations if you have them enabled for playing audio. you'll have to roll back to a previous build or update to r21819 if you want to use anything that utilizes the dvd player. see trac ticket (http://xbmc.org/trac/ticket/6936)
Thanks! Yeah I updated to 21829, and it is now working again.

The jtv Archives thing would be a little tricky to do. It would be easier for xbmc to record the rtmp stream. But, I don't know it would be possible to record and play at the same time.
Make a xbmc feature request to record rtmp streams and then I can go from there.

So after going in and out of the plugin and doing searches about 10-12 times, it gives me an error that it can not run the python script via special://home/...
I'm running the latest svn t3ch has, so I'm not sure if that is related or not (if I need a newer version, which incidentally I also tried the latest xbmc, but had several other issues).

I have awaited for a coder to release a justin.tv plugin for a while now, Im so excited about this and everyone is so impressed, i Must see this! Can anyone help me or have any clue why I am getting this error?
Other scripts work fine such as itunes, tetris, etc.
Thanks.

That's because it's a video plugin not a script. Btw, the latest update for the plugin is 1.4.9. You'll find it on the SVN Repo Installer.

hey, I have been using the justin.tv plugin on the XBOX for a few weeks I love it and major thanks to whoever is working on it.
Ive been updating almost every time there is one. Its worked great until yesterday when I updated to 1.4.9.
When I go to load stream lists (i.e. entertainment -> movies) it is giving me the "python script failed" error after loading about 6 or 7. It only happens a few times, after that it starts working properly.
Is this something im doing (or something I can fix myself) or is it the plugin?

It could just be a connection error or sever error while downloading the requested webpage from jtv. Post a debug log (http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Log_file#Enable_Debugging) next time it happens.

Hello,
Great plugin!
Is there any way to record the stream on the computer to watch it after?
I am trying with flv downloaders (orbit downloader and replay media catcher ) and it does not seem to work...
Thank you
This is weird.....
I can access JTV from my Xbox, it seems ok, not as fast as some occasions but generally ok.
However, when i try to go to the site from my laptop it just says that 'this webpage cannot be found'.....as if it doesn't exist! It's done the same thing for the past 12 hours....meaning i cannot upload any content!
What's going on? Surely if the site is down on my laptop it should not be working on my XBMC???
Very, very confused...:oo:

Well...the jtv plugin only downloads the needed pages and thumbnails from the site. While if you were on your browser, everything gets downloaded (pages, ads, images, flash content, etc). So I would say that the plugin uses less bandwidth and has a less chance of timing out.
During peak times, JTV occasionally times out for me. Too many users connecting at once. There isn't anything you can do at this point but wait and refresh the page.

I'll keep refreshing. The reason i want to get on the site is to upload some content, thought i'd give something back to the community in some way. I've got a HDD with a load of the UK comedies like the inbetweeners, alan partridge etc i thought some of the US guys might like to watch.

:laugh: ...JTV is not better than cable.
To me it is! Way more channels, no junk filler content, instant visual channel previews(thumbnails), no commercials, etc. Plus it's free! Granted, there are a bunch of pointless channels, and the video quality is not as good, but that is not a huge deal to me. Like I said, I don't care for the website because I don't want really want to sit a computer monitor and use the chat rooms, plus you have all those ads and things. But it is a perfect fit for XBMC because it is only the channels. Nice and Simple!

Hi stacked,
Thankyou for this plugin, was wondering whats the issue, as I just tried playing all the streams from JTV under Sports-->American Football and for every single stream it said invalid user or feed might be offline. But when I access the stream from PC, all of those played fine.
Would you know what might be the cause? I am using the XBMC build from Nightly SVN from 08/11. Movies etc work fine.

So I just checked and it's not possible with the current XBMC rtmp player. I'll make a post and ask the xbmc dev guys to make sure.
btw, I have a feeling that sometime soon, JTV is going to implement some sort of security/authentication for all channels (similar to USTREAM). If this happens, the plugin will stop working until it's possible to replicate the security/authentication process in XBMC. Just a heads up.

Well it's up to the justin.tv users to broadcast the games. I already seen that they have the pre-season games, so I would assume that the regular games will be on there too.

v22485 latest. Ill get that installed, then. Thanks. :)
EDIT: Now the whole script fails. Even after a plug-in re-install.
I find that some streams don't play and xbmc hangs on linux, anyone else seeing this?

What do you mean by some don't play? Are you talking about the not live error?
btw, I can't find the problems if you guys don't post a debug log or say what build you're using.

v22485, Xbox.
v1.4.10, Justin.tv from SVR Repo Installer 1.8. Ive tried the one from Google Codes and FTPd to the Xbox as a manual install too, but both just tell me the Python Script has failed.
I may just re-install XBMC again, just in case its that causing the problem.
edit: reinstall didnt work.

...i think the new XBMC build is messing with the plugin. Give me time to confirm.

It was literally working up until an hour ago, as I was watching some Football streams on it. Then I updated the version to the current one to see if the plug-in would speed up, and it stopped working.
I may go back to the older version I had.
EDIT: Back dated to an earlier version, and it works again.
Moral of the story? 1.4.10 Justin.tv does NOT work with latest Nightly Build from SSHCS.com, and complains, but works, in the latest T3CH release. Job done.

I can confirm. Back dating XBMC to a previous build worked.

In the latest nightly xbox build, the wording of the "System.BuildVersion" is changed and it causes the plugin to crash at the compatibly check. So if you comment out line 451, the error will go away and the plugin will work on the new build. Or update to 1.4.11 on svn.
And for some odd reason, all steams playing under r22485 XBMC for Windows from sshcs.com is not working. But r22487 (http://danielpatton.com/user-accounts/XBMC-updates/XBMC-Rev22487.zip) is working fine.
Note: some of the streams that have 1,000+ viewers might be slow and not play, keep clicking until it does.

last plugin update is not working well...
the stream starts and stop every second, and for start again i need to press the pause button each time...
impossible to watch anything.
This does not happen with previous versions.
Thanks

There is nothing much I can do. Remember that plugins are made to scrape video urls from a website and XBMC plays the urls. The plugin has no influence on how the video plays or the quality of the video. The video playback is all determined by your internet connection, the justin.tv stream severs, and the justin.tv broadcaster. There should be no differences in streaming between plugin versions. Usually when the justin.tv servers are congested or slow, it's hard to get connected to a stream within XBMC.

Christ. They dont hang about releasing builds over there, do they?
I think Ill stick with T3CH for now, and just put up with it saying its incompatable. I spent almost 2 Hours messing with it yesterday, missed all of the Footy, so Ill get it done when Ive got more patience and time. :)
Thanks for the assistance though, Stacked.

Hello,
really a great plugin!!!
On my PC in XBMC it works really fine... But how can I re-stream it (with transcoding) to an UPnP-Compatible player in my network?
How can it become a "Video source" for the UPnP-Server in XBMC ?
Thanks a lot for any hint,
Sven

I don't think that's possible to do within XBMC using a plugin or script.
Can this plugin play saved urls? Justin.tv has the feature to let you mark a position in the stream and come back to that URL later and start watching from that position...can this plugin play that?

No. I couldn't find a way to recreate that feature in the plugin. It might be possible add support to view the channel's clips, but I haven't found time to do so.
I'm really lost.
I just cant seem to get justin.tv to work anymore. When it starts it says i need to upgrade, but according to svn the new version is incompatable.
In a nutshell, what version of XBMC do i need on my xbox to get the justin.tv plugin, new or old version, to work properly?
I can get the plugin to start, and one stream to work, (sometimes) then when i try to change it to another stream it just crashes the system.
Sorry if i'm a bit of a noob, but it took me ages to get my xbox to this stage, and i watched the justin.tv plugin all the time, and now all i can really do with the box is stream my media to my tv....which i could have done with an s-video cable! If i'm honest a lot of the plugins seem to have problems for me.
Any advice is really welcome! I really want my box to work, especially justin.tv and movie plugins! :(
Thanks loads. :)
Paul.

Can only comment on xbox platform, not sure what you are on but...
I've got 4 xboxes here all running on different builds but justin.tv is working on all of them (the oldest build is one of the nightly builds from about a month ago so if yours is older than that maybe you need to update xbmc). I did have a slight problem with justin.tv a few days ago, updated it from the svn installer but it didn't work for some reason so I installed from the xbmczone insaller plugin and all was fine. As for movie plugins there are plenty out there but they keep changing their website structures which means the plugin breaks but usually the plugin author is on the case to fix it pretty quickly, personally I'd recommend nixa's great watchnewfilms plugin, just do a search.

Thanks for your reply.
I am using an XBOX. :)
I realise this is such a simple question to ask, and i apologise in advance - but where do i get the nightly builds? I got my XBMC from the t3ch site, its the XBMC-9.04.1-FIXED-BABYLON-T3CH, and got the justin.tv 1.4.10 from here i think. I tried typing nightly build into the search, but couldnt seem to find it.
Should i just constantly update the build and use the new justin.tv (i think its 1.4.11)
Again, i'm sorry for being a bit of a noob, but i'm really not all that technical and am trying to learn as i go, sometimes the tutorials/info on sites is a bit beyond my current understanding!
Thanks loads.
Paul. :)

No probs we've all been there searching through the forums for noob help at some time. Just do a google search for xbmc nightly build and it's the first link. Unless you want the media flagging version (which is still in testing stages) just use the standard xbox download, not patched. If you want to use the patched version then feel free to do so but be ready to do a lot of searching through forums to work out how to use it without getting your xbox freezing. When installing I'd recommend using an FTP client from PC and deleting everything on drive Q first (except UserData, Plugins & Scripts) and then FTP over your new build. If you just simply overwrite the old files you could end up with a lot of bugs.
If you want any help regarding installing xbmc please search for an appropriate thread, these threads can get a little messy if we start talking about different problems in the same thread. Hopefully that should start you off in the right direction - good luck.
I'm really lost.

Hi stacked,
I guess something changed again on JTV site, the plugin stopped working. It started to give Python Plugin Error starting today.
Would appreciate your help.
Thanks.
Fixed. get v1.4.12
btw, I made a plugin for ATDHE.Net (Live Sports TV)
http://code.google.com/p/plugin/downloads/list
It currently only plays Justin.tv streams.

You are the best man. Thx.
If you have time do you think its possible to get channelsurfing.net plugin going as well? I hope there could be a lot of reuse from Justin.tv there as all seem like rtmp streams there as well.
I noticed there was an effort made in the past to get a script done for that site, but it seems it does not work. In case you want to take up that as time permits.
That new plugin looks interesting, will give it a try. Am a sports fan and anything related to Sports is always appreciated very much and also adds to the great XBMC plugins library
Hi, SVN say me "incompatible" for the new 1.4.12 version, i use xbmc on appletv, can you help me?

You might have to update XBMC. What build are you using?
btw, try using the Zone Installer or install the plugin manually.

Oh, I forgot about that site. I'll check it out later. I'm probably just gonna end up adding all these streaming sites that use Justin.tv into one plugin. I'm not sure when I'll have time again, maybe by Sunday night.
Can you tell me how i can unistall the 1.4.11 version and install the 1.4.12 manually?

Understood, Thanks for the answer anyway. :)
The diference with the first version of the plugin that works with previous versions of XBMC is that when the stream is congested, the image stops, but the pause button is not pressed automatically, so when the buffer fill up again, it starts playing.
Now what happen is that the pause is pressed, so until i press the pause again, the video is stopped, so i need to press the button every 5 minutos or something like that.
I do not know if that can be fixed in the XBMC by the plugin or manually.
Thanks.

Are you using the plugin from the xbox? I noticed that when I use the plugin from the xbox, the stream starts off pause (buffering). But when I use the plugin on my PC, the stream plays immediately. The only reason I can think of for these differences is that the xbox is slow. Again, there is nothing I can do about this. It's not really a big issue.

No, i am using a windows vista computer.
Well, i have been trying more options and it looks like the buffer really doesnt work. I can wait until i have 100% buffer and when i play again, the video acelerate so the cache is no longer used... and after 5 minutes again buffer at 0% and the stream stops.
Something happens with the new versions that make the cache to work worse than the others.
is there any settings for the cache size in the plugin that can be changed?

Using Live with working analog audio over HDMI for everything I cant get any audio for the streams. I just get an audio failed to initialise error.
Can you help please?
I experienced audio problems on very old builds of XBMC, but I don't have those problems any more.
What build of XBMC are you using?
btw, can you get sound with regular stereo speakers?

On the first page of this thread, I noted that you need XBMC rev21803 or higher. Older builds had problems with audio and the streams crashing.

Sorry stacked, my bad! I have reinstalled so many times today with different versions I forgot the most obvious thing! :o
Just upgraded again and its working perfectly...
Thanks again!

Ha! I just figured it out.
If you go to the site, double cklick on the video it will bring you to the users page. (look at the url)
Simply search for the user and presto, you've got video!
If you could get that site working it would be a god send. I would love to watch things like the world series with my xbox, :-/ on the rez I can't pick up many tv stations, I'm in the middle of nowhere. I can watch it on my PC but it's just not the same.
Peace brother, I hope you find the time.
Check the sports section on Justin.tv. Also, check out the ATDHE.net plugin. You can find in on the SVN Repo Installer.

Any help would be appreciated - i'm trying to use jtv as my first script in XBMC, and nobody else seems to have any issue using it but... when I run the file default.py that is installed with the script, I get a little popup saying script failed. I have logging on and this is returned (again, thanks for any help)

hi. from one newbie to another. i very much doubt i can help you but you will probably be asked to provide a debug log. see :
http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=Log_file#Enable_Debugging
also, it's probably a good idea to wrap some tags round the code when you post it, to save it taking up the whole page. this can be done using the icons in the top right of the "go advanced" reply option.
Justin.tv is a plugin not a script. So you need to find out how to autoexec plugins.

cheers stacked.
probably risking further embarrassment, here is the section of the wiki that I should have read before starting
http://xbmc.org/wiki/?title=HOW-TO_install_and_use_plugins_in_XBMC
thanks for the plugin, and thanks for the help.

Justin.tv plugin new update "sucks". Can not use in private channel anymore.

Anymore? The rtmp library in XBMC is not able to play password protect streams. If it attempts to, it will get an error and cause XBMC to crash. I added an error check to prevent this from happening. From the testing I've done, I didn't notice any false positives.
Do you have a particular stream that used to work but doesn't?

First of all thank you very much for replying.
BTW Justin.TV plugin is great. Thank You for that.
Ok let me explain: I use a plugin named ATDHE.Net in combination with Justin.TV plugin.
I put all the links that I want to watch mainly privates one locally in my network and made the plugin point to there.
Then I'm able watch private channels with XBMC.
Now since the update even with the password built in the link I get
the error.
I understand you solve a crash problem when someone hit a private
channel, but for me became a problem
I hope there is a work around for this problem.
Thanks again

I just made an update. I added a dialog to warn users about private streams. You either continue to start the stream or exit. Under the plugin settings, there is an option to disable this dialog. By default, the dialog is enabled.
I am still curious on how you were able to play private streams because it's not possible.

Like I said was necessary to use a ATDHE.Net plugin conbined with Justin.tv plugin in order to work.
Here's the link
<a href="javascript:void();" onClick="window.location = 'http://justin.tv/vst1/popout?publisher_guard=flatron'"><h2>Click here to watch VST1</h2></a>

This is a good idea.

Was this ever possible or could it ever become possible? Today I set up a private stream of my living room on jtv. I access this from the bedroom fine but only if it's not private. What steps can I take to make this private but still have access through xbmc for the stream?

I'm going to remove this code in the next update because I have confirmed that private JTV streams can not play in XBMC.

Not possible. Use a different streaming protocol. Try using VLC to setup a local MMS stream on your network.
