I have implemented a limited version of DASH suited to play BBC streams. I have only done limited testing and I am outside the UK and only have access to the low speed links - 48k and 96k. For this initial version I want to find out if enough of DASH has been implemented for BBC playback. For live streams DASH requires a good system clock so I'd like to see if there are issues with playing live streams for a long period on system where clock loses/gains time (e.g. Pi) .
DASH is implemented as an addition to the plugin so after installation - you need to check the Plugin settings to select DASH as the preferred format. If it doesn't work - you should be able to change the setting back to HLS and get back to existing BBCiPlayer HLS playback. I have included all the other patches, icon updates ad also utgg onair feature (selectable through settings) . I haven't been able to test the live UK stream URL so there may be typos. As the currnet BBCiPlayer plugin has been patched/modded. To be on the safe side users should back up the whole BBCiPlayer directory so I have updated the plugin number to 1.4.1. I think you need to uninstall the current plugin before installing with the following repository. Don't install if you need help to reinstall and patch the BBCiplayer plugin or you can't survive without BBC on LMS for a few hours.. http://github.com/bpa-code/bpaplugins/raw/master/repo-short.xml ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=104672 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
