Have take a new mplayer download. Chris has changed the “filetype” line. |

I’ve sucessfully tested the EABI version of MPlayer streaming Youtube videos on Pi 4B (720p), Titanium (720p), IGEPv5 (720p), Pi 3B (360p) and Pi 3B+ (360p).
PatchSWP only works if the program has been statically linked with a version of UnixLib that contains the SWP instruction. It was fixed in May 2016 so anything with a timestamp after that date won’t contain the SWP instruction. |

PatchSWP was only a test. |

OK don’t know what has happened but YTSearch now doesn’t return any results. So Python3 has the required elements installed as per above but putting anything in the search field now comes back with just the words completed and null information. Have YouTube done another regular update? |

I had the same problem until I installed ZLib1g and LibSSL using PackMan. |

Hi Chris, It did work as I had tried it but I have checked via PackMan and ZLib1g and LibSSL are installed. So something else must be causing it not to work today. I have not changed anything installed via PackMan either. |

If you type som. in a task window after performing a search you should see similar to below.

Chris, Yes get something like that. There is a problem as YouTubedl comes up with an error in trying to download the list supported formats of a URL as well.
I have tried watching a video of the RComp presentation and that works OK in !YTPlay. |

YTPlay runs the same python script as Youtubedl so they should both fail in the same way. Scratch that. The python module that YTSearch uses also needed updating.
There was a new version of the youtube_dl python module released today so hopefully this will fix the problem. I’ll upload an updated version and post when it’s there. |

Sorry… double. |
Raik (463) 2061 posts |
Thats right, generally YTPlay use youtubedl in background. |
Chris Gransden (337) 1207 posts |
There’s an updated version of youtube_dl 2020.07.28 available here. |

HI Chris, That fixes the YouTubedl list and URL issue. Not sure if I have the correct syntax for the Python3 upgrade, what is that synmbol before the “upgrade” bit? |

Thank you for the updated version of youtube_dl and providing the “how to” upgrade the pip. Just for information, all working here without the updates, except of course for the shared library updates released today… |

Have do the same with my Titanium like yesterday with the Pi3B+ PiTop. Here it works without problems. Have made a “quick and dirty” version of YTPlay for MPlayer support, not configurable at this time. Is also working. So will made a configurable version. |

Is it possible to change the output of the frontend module to a real text window to copy the urls are found by YTSearch direct to Netsurf or Streamer … |

There’s an updated version of the EABI MPlayer (1.04) available here. New in this version is it no longer locks up when streaming Youtube videos on an RPi 2 (armv7 version). It’s now also possible to stream 360p Youtube videos on Rpi 2, Beagleboard Xm, Pandaboard ES and Wandboard with the sound in sync. |

I’ve not found a way to do this. At the moment I just save the search results to StrongEd and double click on the links in StrongEd. These then load NetSurf. The URL can then be dragged directly to YTPlay. |

Have also not found a way… |

In YTPlay 1.32 to get it to use MPlayer I changed CallFFPlay and CallStream. Runs stable on all machines I tested on.

Mmm, I see my mistake. I use.. SYS “Wimp_StartTask”,"mplayer -nocache -playlist … Thanks a lot. Will post a fist configurable testversion without ytsearch later this day. |
Raik (463) 2061 posts |
Looks like I have a lot of problems with the SharedLib… |
Raik (463) 2061 posts |
Have made an upload to test. Things to do: Big problems for me… |

Hi Raik, Firstly I hope you had a good vacation. I have tried your test YTPlay on my ARMX6 and it works with both FFPlay and also version 1.04 of mplayer that Chris has made availabvle as of 1st August. It will not work with version 1.03 from the 24th July so you should update to the latest 1.04 mplayer first. I also have the latest Rlse 5 versions of Sharedlibs made available late last week, via PackMan, which makes Python3 work better as well for YTSearch, 27th July 2020 version. I also have updated Python27 to the latest versions, including updates to YouTubedl, version dated 29th July 2020. So thanks to you and Chris for making the updates of all the software available and also for the configuration options in YTPlay . |

Hi Doug, Thanks. Was on te baltic sea… more rain than sun :-( I use the latest V1.04 mplayer. Thanks for the information. If the configure option and both player are working, I can spend the time for the search option. The “stolen” window is alive via select click… but not working yet ;-) |
