Don't hold your breath . xbmc's player is internal so it's probably detecting the other webstream tracks on the fly during playback whereas UMS is running ffmpeg (or whatever) externally and can't see the stream metadata (but I'm only speculating here, I haven't looked into it closely). Post a sample link and it may lead to something.

posting a sample link would be kind of difficult since it's linked to my ip (and contains login/password combination) and will not work with any other ip. i'll try to dive more into ffmpeg to see if there's a possibility to catch another audio feed thank you!

I am not sure if I understand last posts in a right way but when talking about I programmed it so I am sure MediaInfo is used for this purpose.
Anyway it is enabled by default. As you can see in ps3.conf file: EDIT:
Now I am not sure if MediaInfo = false but I remember now, in this case it will fail back to ffmpeg

Thanks for the clarification, ExSport, it was just a naive suggestion on my part . The actual problem (I think) is that it's a web stream so there's no media to parse and playback defaults to the first audio track.

You are right, I totally missed it is Jumpy plugin thread so WEB streaming

Well not necessarily WEB, jumpy does whatever it's told to do .

But back to the subject, I think a half-way solution would be to write a playback hook to parse ffmpeg stderr output and make "late" entries into the transcode folder, but the user would have to start/restart to switch streams which isn't very smooth.

This addon is EXACTLY what i needed! Thanks you so much. Most of the xbmc addons I wanted works except a couple.

Phim47.com addon - http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=146949
It works on XBMC but no file shows up for google/youtube servers when accessed through UMS. I traced a sample video to the source url from xbmc.log.
Plugging the url direction into my browser plays the file. Anyway I can get it show up on UMS? I know some python so I can make adjustments to the addon if needed. Just need to know what to look for. Trying to set this up for my grandparents so I want it to be as simple as possible.

The culprit is jumpy , try replacing plugins/jumpy/xbmc/xbmc.py and plugins/jumpy/xbmc/xbmcplugin.py with these:

[attachment removed] - superceded by jumpy-0.2.5

Thanks! It works perfectly. It even fixes other addons I had that ran into the same issue!

Hello,

I am a new user to jumpy and just tried my first install of it from scratch. After performing all recommended installation steps using the auto installer for windows(and trying this process multiple times), I have not been able to successfully see xbmc addons on my PS3. I get as far as being able to see the jumpy "examples" on my ps3, but nothing with regards to xbmc shows up even though I have it properly installed. I found the following error message in my jumpy log while I was trying to troubleshoot this issue:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Program Files\PS3 Media Server\plugins\jumpy\xbmc.py", line 19, in <module>
import xbmc.xbmcinit
File "C:\Program Files\PS3 Media Server\plugins\jumpy\xbmc\xbmcinit.py", line 25, in <module>
else os.getenv('ProgramFiles(x86)')) + '\\XBMC'
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'
[jumpy] latest version is 0.2.4



Any ideas on what the issues are? I attached the full log as well. Thank you in advance for any ideas you can provide.
