RTMPT vs RTMP on VRT channels (BE)

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Using XOT-Uzg.v3 3.2.14 / XBMC 11.0 (Compiled Mar 24) on Ubuntu 11.10 - 
XBMCbuntu

It looks like I can't play the rtmpt:// streams (works fine in my browser).

When playing a rtmpt stream I get the following error in xbmc.log:

But, it looks like the rtmp streams run fine - As a test I quickly hacked 
mediaitem.py (because that's probably a lot faster than fixing the librtmp 
handshake error - still have to look into that):

After this 'patch' the streams start fine;

So I thought to just move this 'patch' to channel.be/een, channel.be/vrt and 
channel.be/canvas but somehow this does not get picked up for all channels?!

This fixed playback just perfect for "chn_een.py", but applying the same patch 
to "chn_canvas.py" just gets ignored somehow?!

- Any idea why the RTMPT streams don't work and/or am I the only one?
- Any idea why my modifications in chn_canvas don't get picked up?

Editing the mediaitem.py is not an option as it impacts all channels. Your fix 
in the Een channel is in the wrong place. I guess you need to update the 
UpdateVideoItem method and make sure the rtmp value is substituted there.
I will look into it.

I checked : it can be fixed in the UpdateVideoItem method for both channels.

I do not have time to fix this during the week.  Next weekend.

Ok, EEN is working now. But it seems that CANVAS is not working at all? Is that 
correct?

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

That's what I tried to explain.

If you hack it in in mediaitem.py both "een" and "canvas" will work.

For some strange reason any update in canvas.py just gets ignored while they 
aren't in een.py. Write some random data via the logFile.debug() function in 
the UpdateVideoItem() of canvas.py - it will not be written in the log file.

Hope this helps.

It never gets there because the channel is broken. The site just changed too 
much.
