Itv player plugin first alfa release...

[fizza]

Sorry guys all working now

[wazza_2]

sorry to sound daft but were do i put itv player preview, its just that after installing the first file mine says bad magic number

Looks great.
I assume the main screen is just a static backdrop, and we just choose from the list in the middle section?

Issue I have is that all the streams I have selected thus far, at any resolution, I get a locked box with a spinning VIX top left.
It also happens on occasion on the ice-film plugin.
Is this likely to be a lack of free memory issue or do others see this.

FYI - I am running the latest OE3.0 build on Duo. Apart from the standard preloaded VIX image plugins I only have 1channel, Ice-films, BBC Player and ITV Player plugins loaded.
My Broadband is OK'ish - only 6Meg d/l.

Tested the ITV player and can say that I am very impressed I have found no bugs with it. For an Alpha release its pretty amazing.. stream quality excellent Running vic build 3.1.1 build 562

Should I take the plunge and install it...??? I have an ET9000 with the latest build...

Will it cause any issues - i.e. killing my box :-(

Will it work in Ireland ?

Will it work in Ireland ?

with a uk proxy it will; other than that no

[dfdream]

Chris will enabling a proxy like this for itv player stop the RTE Player plugin from working or is there a way to have both working...

I remember in the past using a firefox plugin that would detect a predefined web site and route through a proxy to allow iplayer etc but would go straight to rte player for that to work.

A plugin like that would be good.

Or even the next step to have a GUI interface that linked all the players together (with some proxy management built in)...

personaly i use a dns proxy (unblock us) which simply requires me to change dns settings in the network settings of my reciever once. it then streams iplayer,itv player and rte player without issue and without ever having to change anything.also allows streaming of us players such as abc and nbc players on my ipad and pc etc. its €4 p/m but there are many alternative proxy companies so shop around for best deal.

[Midnight]

I'm also using Unblock Us and can confirm that it works really well with this plugin overseas.

I used to use a VPN but this works much better as it doesn't restrict the bandwidth speed.

It also detects when my ISP changes my IP Addy and updates its systems so I can keep connected to the ondemand streams.

It only costs £3.25 a month.

But using that method the box is always using that proxy, which will cause problems with other plugins.

it can be done within the plugin, so rte player would use an Irish proxy, bbc player would use a UK proxy and so on without making any network changes...
just give it a bit of time...

not using this dns proxy method rob. it opens proxy for all major countries. uk, ireland,spain,us etc (even holland )
no issues whatsoever with any plugin using this method :thumbup:
