Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

To get the above link working either click on it (it should open the console and prefill the fields for you), or right-click, copy Link, then in console Add online resource - it should again pre-fill the fields with data from the copied link.
Then click Add and Save.

On the TV (it might take few minutes) go to Videos -> Online -> name of the feed [you tube] -> here should be list of the videos

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

Zip
Thank you very much for all the help. I am able to solve the problem at least partially. I am able to add online resources (rss feeds) some urls and I succeeded to get them on the TV.
I am guessing the problem which I had previously. As C drive is my systems drive and once in six to twelve month due to some reason I need to reformat C drive and add the system files from the CD. I lose the software I have added later. So I park all my software other than the system software in my D drive which normally remains ok. I also periodically back up the files in this drive D and also data files in third drive E in DVDs periodically so that I can restore them any time.
In installing software serviio also I parked it in D drive and serviio console recognized in the software parked in D. Subsequently due to some mistake I parked software (how I did it I am not clear) in C drive also and all the changes you and others have suggested in c drive files and not in D drive files. When I thought this could be the problem the changes I made in C drive serviio I transferred to D drive serrviio and C drive serviio files moved to recycle Bin (temporarily). Then I find that at least some of the urls added In the serviioo console In Library-online resources –online rssfeeds/atom feeds are seen in the TV source “all share-serviio”. One or two urls are not there perhaps the urls are not correct for serviio. I am also able to view those videos with valid urls.
Now another problem arose. The video runs for 15-20 minutes and then servioo disconnected. There are series of threads under this subject in serviio forum but no reliable solution is available
From the log during the time of disconnection the extracts are given below
Log begins
2013-11-03 18:42:56,319 DEBUG [FeedParser] Failed feed sample: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/x...
2013-11-03 18:42:56,319 DEBUG [FeedParser] Feed failed parsing (Invalid XML: Error on line 7: The reference to entity "cache" must end with the ';' delimiter.), trying BOM detection

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid document

Log ends
do you have any solution. I tried reopening the feed in TV and try to use fast forward (inTV remote) and in one case I get error “not available”

once again thank you for all the patience you had in helping me.,

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

you didn't copy the link properly, this forum will shorten it (and add .... in the middle). So instead of marking the link and copying that way, jusr right click on it and select Copy link (ori similar, depends on your browser). Then try to Add it in the console.


serviio://video:feed?url=http%3A%2F%2Fg ... Ftop_rated

alternatively here is the link in full:

  Code:
serviio://video:feed?url=http%3A%2F%2Fgdata.youtube.com%2Ffeeds%2Fapi%2Fstandardfeeds%2Ftop_rated

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

no.when i right click and click copy link address and paste it on library onlirresurce under onlinerss/atom feeds I get an error message
"url is not valid". I did not want to trouble you again and so did not give this information. some youtube videos ARE COMING. so essentially serviio is working. It is a question of correct url and plugin. lboth are still problem for any new item. I am tryig.thanks again.

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

You don't paste it in the console. The way ServiioLinks (links starting with serviio://) should work is, either you:

- click on them and the console should open automatically with the fields prefilled, or
- copy them as you did, then click Add button in the console, and it'll prefill the fields for you.

Do not paste serviio:// link into the URL field in the console, it won't work.

Basically ServiioLink includes all the fields needed to store online source in Serviio, not just the URL.

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

two thigs happened

1. after the grace period I am not abloe to find servioo network in my TV soources. I tried all sorts of things. But in th forum I find an idea
I opened to taskmanager of the computer and clicked "serivces" some where there I clicked "restart"
Presto! TV sshowed
serviio connected and then got my videos etc

2. I said when I Pasted the url given by you thre was some problem. I followd your instructions and only added "display name"
yes. it got those videos includng "........bit me" a fine video of two children and some oher music videos.

3. onlything I must learn how to build the urls. For you tube vieos I manage . but other I have to learn.

I shall revert to the form later. thaks for all the teachiig you have done.

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

This thread looks just what I'm experiencing, but I'm currently half way through it, and still not seeing the stream on my TV.

My question is: Serviio says that the NASA stream isn't a valid URL when tested as a live stream. Does this mean it's not broadcasting, or have I got something wrong?

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

The NASA url was outdated, I've updated to a working one here: viewtopic.php?f=41&t=4689

Btw, where did you get your original NASA URL? I'd like to fix it there too.

Re: youtube videos not getting in serviio

Thanks for your response, zip.

I'd like to help you with the out-of-date link, but this software is driving me crazy and I can't remember. I'll let you know if I remember or come across it again.

I just articulated what I can't figure out, and posted it 5 minutes ago. If you could give me even a few sentences on the list at the bottom of it, I would be ecstatic!

It's in another thread, but presumably you can find it.
