Getting started with online resource.

Thank you, Serviio. I can now view on my Samsung LCD TV B2230HD photos and videos I have in my PC, attached to the router to which the B2230HD is connected.

But when I try to show a web resource it doesn't work.

Here is the web resource I would like to show:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5WjVgL6Nh4
Bill Press "Let's talk about statistics"

but when I do ffmpeg -i http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5WjVgL6Nh4
it reports, "Invalid data found when processing input."

Could you send me ONE URL of a web resource that I could try on my Serviio-connected TV?

Thanks very much.

DickG (Serviio newbie)

There is a whole forum: viewforum.php?f=19

Some plugins for other online content, incl. examples and instructions how they work are here: viewforum.php?f=20

For your example, the YouTube plugin works with RSS feeds, not particular videos. Some more info is here: http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=servio_plugins

A big easy way to add YouTube videos is to use this cool Chrome Extension - viewtopic.php?f=17&t=7162

make sure you have the YouTube groovy plugin in your plugins folder found here - viewtopic.php?f=20&t=3276
