YouTube

[jhb50]

It appears that many videos (Vevo) have been locked up with a scrambled signature.

I'm currently using Serviio 1.4 PRO installed on Ubuntu 13.10, and a Samsung LA32D550 TV, and I have the YouTuve.groovy in my plugins folder.

Previously, when running Serviio 1.2.1, I had the YouTube online feeds working perfectly to the same TV, but since rebuilding Ubuntu and installing Serviio 1.4, I can't get the online feeds to work.

The feeds show up in the menus with a full thumbnail list of videos, but when I try play the video I get a "Video codec not supported" error on the TV.

From all the forum posts I read, I suspected it might be an FFMPEG build issue, but I rebuilt that using the methods described in the wiki and forum posts. All other local videos are working, but not the YouTube feeds.

The URL for the YouTube feed I'm attempting to play is: http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/play ... 97FD3CACCE

This is an extract of my Serviio log:

Can you tell if there is something wrong with my setup? Do I have FFMPEG built wrong, or is there maybe a profile error?
It's perplexing since I had it working fine on the old 1.2.1 install.

is there an error later in the log when the file is actually requested?

The only error in the entire log is this one:

Yes, if there is no error after this snippet, then I'm not sure. You could try to use the FFmpeg from 1.2.1 installation, or try the latest FFmpeg binary available.

[jhb50]

You should not be getting an rtsp 3gp file from the plugin. Only rtmp files should be detected. I have tested with the latest version of the plugin and it works fine. Perhaps you do not have the latest version of the plugin. Unfortunately zip has not put version numbers on his youtube plugin files so there is no way to check this except by redownloading the latest plugin. You might also try requesting a different quality in the console.

I just upgraded to 1.4 recently. And I notice my youtube videos are played in very very low quality mode. I did not change any settings for that. It has always been medium quality for online. I tried changing to high quality but still the same.

Wanted to know if anyone else is having this issue or know how to solve this before I start doing the time consuming work of logging and so on. Thanks.

I have a problem getting a single YouTube video to play. (It's the 2014 Budweiser commercial.) I have the YouTube plugin and have successfully got it running the top-rated videos. I went to the following link to figure out how to link to a single video:

https://developers.google.com/youtube/2 ... eo_entries

Based on that, I used the following:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/vide ... RyF4p4?v=2

Also tried another video:

http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/vide ... iCQkPw?v=2

No luck. I tried eliminating the ?v=2, as well as using ?v=1. Still nothing.

I am using version 1.4 on Win7 Ultimate on a 64-bit platform.

Try http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/vide ... -results=1
and see the wiki http://wiki.serviio.org/doku.php?id=you_tube_videos

Try http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/vide ... -results=1

Perfect! Thank you so much.

Hello,

I'm using Serviio with Xbox360.
When YouTube feeds are listed on xbox360 they are sorted alphabetical, not by page order of feeds.
Is there some way to tell xbox360 how to sort feeds, or to add numbering with feeds name, so that first feed have 01 in name, second 02...?

btw: did you see note on google page:
Note: The YouTube Data API (v2) has been officially deprecated as of March 4, 2014. Please refer to our deprecation policy for more information.

Hi....

I have a LG TV model 42LD650 and i tried everything to get play youtube videos on TV and always return "Invalid file"...
I put youtube. groovy inside plugin folders e copy/paste feed url http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/stan ... time=today in serviio but doesn't work...
I read a lot of topics (including all 14 pages of this) in this forum but couldn't find a solution... It seems that doesn't work with LG TVs... An right or did you get fix it?!

Tnx in advance!

[zip]

LG's have often problems with transcoded files, which might be your problem. Try with some of the provided profiles.

Could you tell me (based on testimonials) which of them might work?
Its just replace LG profiles info in profiles.txt ? Is all that i have to do?
tnx
----------------------------

Edit: I don't know if make any difference, but i am not with stock firmware. I am using OpenLGTV firmware.

someone can explain to me why in a plugin displays only 7 videos.
I am new serviio (v 1.4.1.2) user

I try
http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/stan ... _rated?v=2
and get only 7 videos

here is fragment from log (I only replace my real ip to 0.0.0.0):

I tried to use ffmpeg, ffmpeg-serviio & self-buld ffmpeg from sources and with all of them get similar errors.
Whats wrong? Also trying others videos playlists but also get about 1-2-10 videos from list of 20-100-200 videos.

Sorry for my bad english.

[jhb50]

Vevo videos (which are those that do not display for you) contain an encoded signature within the url that only a browser can decode, hence ffmpeg and serviio fail when attempting to access them.

Could you tell me (based on testimonials) which of them might work?
Its just replace LG profiles info in profiles.txt ? Is all that i have to do?
tnx
----------------------------

Edit: I don't know if make any difference, but i am not with stock firmware. I am using OpenLGTV firmware.

Anybodyyyyy?!?!?!?!?!

[jhb50]

The profile to be used by a device is selected in the console status page.

Is here any way to decode real link as VLC (It work fine with all links).
Maybe we can use in this plugin browser's useg-agent or something others stuffs.
For example, can we use external program for direct link extraction in plugin like YouTube-DL?
May be it is possible fix the problem with unacessible links.

Sorry for my bad english.

I give up... It seems anyone won't help me!
