Serviio

I've just started using serviio, and I can see all of my personal content (photos, video, audio) but I cannot see any videos from online feeds. I've read all the other forum posts and support pages, downloaded groovy, updated java, and made sure that the ffmpeg file is updated. I still get this log entry:

Honestly, I don't quite understand yet how to create the links to the online feeds. But I copied two youtube and hulu links from the online forum into the consule library. For example, http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/stan ... /top_rated.

I'm streaming to a Ps3 that is connected to my Panasonic Viera.

Any guidance would be appreciated. It doesn't look like anyone else has this problem.

Thank you,

Susan

Well that feed did not come from top rated so without further info it is impossible to diagnose what broke between your rss and the playback of the selected video. Did you try different quality settings. Looks to me like you have low quality selected.

I think it's related to this ticket: https://bitbucket.org/xnejp03/serviio/i ... 263-videos

You could try changing video quality for the feeds in the console so that it picks a different (supported) file type for now.

Thanks so much for responding so quickly. I read the log more closely, and it looks like some of the plug-ins aren't running correctly. Here is part of the log:

Youtube isn't one of the plugins where there is an unexpected error. I'm still getting this error, and the only online feed in the library is the top rated feed as listed above:

Any thoughts?

Susan

that's what I said, if it starts with rtsp:// then it will be fixed in the related ticket. Didn't changing the quality help?
