Text shown, videos blank,

[tlc]

I have invidious running at home (and working). I just added playlet, 0.6.0 from the store.

I press "Login" in the setup process, I see "Logged In: true" and the screen on the TV refreshes. On the TV, under Subscriptions (and the other section titles) the text has changed to my subscriptions, but the video squares are blank.

If I try to play a video, I get a dialog with:

Error playing video ... dbgmsg: got invalid pathname, load the next one category: mediaplayer errcode: 8 drmerrcode: 0

Thanks for reporting @tlc Can you share more information?

• Screenshot/photo of the screen showing the issue
• The url of the video failing to play (if it is a specific video)
• Invidious instance you're using (or whether you're hosting your own)
• Paste the content from http://ROKU_IP_ADDRESS:8888/api/state (e.g. http://192.168.1.2:8888/api/state)

The more details you can share, the better I can track down the origin of the issue.

All thumbnails blank, all videos fail. Local invidious instance: "Current version: 2022.11.22-5160d8ba @ master" In container.

Thank you! In this case, I suspect this is configuration to be done on the Instance. Here are the fields that I found needed to be configured properly for things to work:

• domain: set it to your domain (in your case svcs.home)
  • this is so that the urls returned are absolute (${domain}/thumbnail.jpeg) and not relative.
• external_port: I believe you need to set this to 3030 in your case
  • this is so that the urls returned are in the form of (${domain}:${external_port}/thumbnail.jpeg) and not relative.
• hmac_key: set this to a random value
  • this is so the auth token used by Playlet does not randomly expire (and does not expire when you restart your instance)

See post-install docs here

Setting these correctly made my local instance work fine (related https://github.com/meienberger/runtipi-appstore/issues/173#issuecomment-1374543462)

If you are using the docker compose, you should be able to set these fields here

Let me know if this fixes your issue

That was it. Thanks for the help and for playlet!
