@Mikka: yes, I could login yesterday and watched an episode of a TV serie

So, bad news for the POHD i guess...

Do you know any technical details of how it's getting content?

You said you have to login, what do you mean?

Hi Mikka,

I've been busy finding a new job, and i got a new job, but it has been very busy. So i'm sorry i did'nt looked on the forum so often.

I can confirm it's working (maybe again?).

I see that you parted it in months instead of day's.

However there's a slight issue. You index the rss somehow, but in your feed you do not have every program listed, which results in broken rss feeds when you use it in the playonhd rtl gemist feed. In the playonhd, when you click on may for example, the first 5 are listed. Then there's this 6th program called Koffietijd en after that 6 more who'm don't have a thumbnail. When you click on them, it freezes your playonhd, and you have to to a hard-reset.

I can confirm the filled thumbnail programs are working.

So the problem is, the rss on playonunixstorm is not updated, but when you load the rtl gemist feed in your playonhd, it does know that there are more feeds, just not the exact link is present in you may.rss

Could you reindex the rss of may, april and so forth?
And are you going to put the day's back in? That would be easier to find the program you're looking for.

Oh yeah, i don't know where you get the feeds from, but here's where i got and edited it from.
The 'algemeen','mondy' etc, is what i used for the xampp script, the 'origineel' is the xml link whereas the script on extreamer forums, they used http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/1/1 for the html layout

algemeen = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2322/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/#/nettv/index.xml

maandag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2347/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/1/index.xml

dinsdag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2348/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/2/index.xml

woensdag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2349/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/3/index.xml

donderdag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2350/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/4/index.xml

vrijdag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2351/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/5/index.xml

zaterdag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2352/

zondag = http://www.feedmashup.com/feed/2353/
origineel = http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/7/index.xml

Best regards and thanks for your efforts,

First of all: congratulations with your job!

I'll try to explain current situation from my view. Few days ago http://iptv.rtl.nl was completely offline and it wasn't temporary host down issue. Now it's back again, but looking on the new links structure I think they are slowly changing server/domain to the new one: http://adaptive.rtl.nl/

Links you gave like http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/Index/2/index.xml are not working for me, I get empty page.

I'm aware of issue you mentioned, that some thumbnails are missing and playing is not working/freezing player. The thing is that every file has parameters: licensing_window_start and licensing_window_end.

licensing_window_start is time just before broadcasting the show
licensing_window_end is time when content gets deleted

Some files have licensing_window_end set to 2111 year which means they are not getting to be removed, unless RTL disable the service/webserver completely. However, most of the files have more realistic time, like:



So it will be removed on 2011-05-21.

I could perform update of content even every hour, but:
- sometimes webserver is offline again (which is very likely to happen), so the check has to be done if http://iptv.rtl.nl is online (if not -> don't update RSS files)
- I don't know how to do days categorization basing on 2011-05-21T09:08:23 format

If you can help me with PHP, I will make sure that content is updated automatically.

Hi Mikka,

We are going to friends this afternoon, so a quick response (sorry i did'nt bother to check the links, but here's what i've come up with so far:

http://iptv.rtl.nl/xl/VideoItem/IpadXML

Best regards,

Martijn

Hey, you found my source

Please let me know if you come up with server check and categorizing days on PHP.

You can expect automatic update starting from today (unless.. you know what). I'm in the middle of testing PHP script, had to do filtering of HTML characters (otherwise RSS feed is crashing) and separating days (so it will be categorized as in first version of script).

Stay tuned for more information.


Edit: RTL Gemist is finished. Download again from the 1st post or use the very first version (with days in main menu) if you still have it. Version with months doesn't work anymore, I've removed all files related to it.

Thanks to makamminga for the tip on retrieving day names.

If script doesn't work anymore (which will most likely happen in future few more times), let me know ASAP as personally I don't use it.

Content is automatically updated twice a day, should be enough.

Heeey Mikka,

Great job.
I tested it, works 100% now here.

Xlive is still not working, i get "unablen to service request" message.
Would be nice if you can fix that too.

Keep up the good work, manny of us are verry happy with it.

Tell me which part of Xlive you want to fix, and I'll write instructions.

I always used XliveNL the most. So that would be a good start for me.

I now have installed the new script you just posted. I can see a new backround screen but there are no options to choose from.
I hope you can help me out.
