TV/stream keeps dropping out

OK then do you think I should have more than 7 ? Perhaps I should add an option where you can set the number of items that you want.

Actually since the stream is dropping each 2-3 minutes, about 45-50 of them would be nice!

OK, posting version 2 and you can set items=50. Remember to set the console max items to at least 50.

Just to understand the use of the plugin: it's basically just to automate the usually manual reconnect within the folder. Or is there another idea behind?

Yes, and also to get and cache the attributes of the current stream when you refresh the WebResource, which cannot be done with a "livestream".

Could not find the version 2

A little update from my side: I am watching the BZ-stream via my media streaming device since more than 25 minutes without interruption...

1st half of Liverpool - Arsenal without a drop out. I believe it's a Samsung issue...

OK, version 2 is there now. Thanks for letting me know. I don't know why my last update post did not take.

The Samsung is definitely more sensitive to stream breaks and errors. I don'tnow if the plugin makes a difference but yesterday I noticed the TV screen picture blacking out fora moment a few times but the Samsung did not load the next folder, and kept on streaming.

Here's a thought.
The original Samsung C/D profile streams the BloodZ avc-mpeg stream natively.
If you added the second optional line to your profile, the BloodZ avc-mpeg stream will be transcoded to mpeg2-mpegts
Perhaps the transcoding eliminates/reduces the stream irregularities and the Samsung has fewer dropouts.

Stream is without drops playing through my Fantec media streaming device since more than 2 hours... So I guess I will just forget about the Samsung-internal DLNA option and use the device. Good that I did not threw it away

Update: after 5.5 hours of streaming the BZ stream via Fantec TV-FHDS onto my Samsung telly I think it's clear that the issue is Samsung-related.

I think it's clear that the issue is Samsung-related

Except for the assertion that it used to work.

Anyway, the webresource works well for me and offers a solution for those without other streaming devices.
