Jumpy Plugin (26 October 2016)

enhance it. Like adding auto downloading from the repository and installing the add on + add on checking to see if the base site is ok.

Thanks for checking it out . I'm surprised the code (esp the python xbmc stuff) is readable, since a lot of it is written inconsistently and not that user-friendly. When I started I thought of "supporting" addon installation like you intend, but couldn't find a good reason not to just let xbmc handle it for me. But I can see the point (sort of, see below) if you just want to have a mini standalone setup sans xbmc. There's another possible strategy for doing this, which is to install/maintain xbmc on pc and then just mirror a copy of the .xbmc user folders on your actual device (either by hand or using something like rsync).

On a side note i recently purchase a pogoplug... It might be possible to run UMS on certain models

It's not likely to work, java is very cpu-hungry. I have a raspberry pi and it doesn't have enough juice for usable java, but who knows?

the pro plug is a dual core arm at 279.34 mhz

the idea one would be the Pogoplug v2 (No Longer in Production) but still on sale for 8.00 to 20.00 1.2mhz

whats the speed of the pi

I guess you need to optimize ums and jumpy java code

can you get the tub tub channel to work?
also
Any python tutorial and java channels
Thank nick
I keep looking for ways to turn parts of ums to x86 assmbly

Will take a look .

I'm afraid this part is a bit too cryptic for my feeble brain (not unlike x86 assembly in that respect ). Could you please elaborate?

Adding the patch below at jumpy/xbmc/xbmcplugin.py:287 fixes it for me:

Code: Select all

	elif url.startswith('stack://'):
		ct = 0
		for url in url[8:].split(' , '):
			listitem.setProperty('path', url.replace(',,', ','))
			setResolvedUrl(handle, succeeded, listitem, ct)
			ct += 1
		return

	# ------------ patch ------------
	elif url.endswith('.asf'):
		url = url.replace('http://', 'mms://')
	#--------------------------------

	mediatype, name, thumb, mediainfo = resolve(url, listitem)
	name = name + "" if stack < 1 else " %d" % stack

Unsure as yet whether to make it official or not .

EDIT: here's the full file, copy/paste from code box will likely cause indentation errors:

url = url.replace('http://', 'mms://')

works for me to

now you upload the fix
i did the cut and paste
and fixed the indent

What ide are you using for python and can you point me to a good tutorial.
I been programming in assembly and have to learn the nuance of python and java

I'm just using command line + a plain text editor (gedit, or when in windows Notepad++) for both python and java. This is all you really need for python, for java most people use Eclipse as IDE. Dive Into Python is a good starting reference, plus python has an interactive shell which is quite handy for learning by trying. For java I end up reading javadocs, oracle tutorials, and searching stackoverflow. If you're familiar with c/c++ then it's a short step to java. The main 'nuance' of java/python vs assembly/c/c++ is that (other than basic data types) everything is an instance of a fundamental predefined 'object', and all objects are accessed by reference, there's no such thing as a pointer.
