Youtube feeds no longer working.

[inkrypted]

I have a feed for Equals Three set up in my WEB.conf that I used to use with PS3 Media Server. and after switching to Universal Media Server that feed no longer works. I was using the pmsencoder plugin from Chocolateboy (Latest version) so I just moved the plugin into the UMS directory . As mentioned in another post i have installed youtube-dl When I attempt to play the stream I get and error that the content cannot be played back and the following errors in the log.

Code: Select all

02-17 15:16:55  There is no inputstream to return for HARLEM SHAKE VIDEOS

Also if I check use Mplayer for Thumbnails I get no thumbnails at all. I also noticed that UMS reports my Java version as Java: 1.7.0_09-Oracle Corporation In reality i am using.
java version "1.7.0_13"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_13-b20)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.7-b01, mixed mode)

As indicated by running java -version. I am using openSUSE 64 bit. Any help would be appreciated Thanks.

I have Youtube feeds in my web.conf for the latest UMS and PMS and all have stopped working. I'm not sure when they stopped working, but I just noticed yesterday. Youtube must have changed something.

[SharkHunter]

YouTube works via Channels. Try installing it and use youtube from there

[R9deLima]

Thanks SharkHunter! I've been using the youtube jumpy plugin and that works perfectly fine. I rarely use feeds in web.conf anymore. I was just curious as to why they stopped working. Jumpy and the channel plugin work well. Cheers!

@r9

Are you using the latest version of youtube-dl? They've been updating it a lot lately. All my feeds in web.conf for Youtube still work just fine. As well as in Jumpy and Channels.

[R9deLima]

Hi kuroukage,

The version of youtube-dl I have must be dated because I've never had to update it manually before. I thought it was pre-installed in UMS? Does it have to be downloaded to a specific location and do I need to add any command lines to UMS.conf? Thanks for your time.

[SharkHunter]

I haven't updated my youtube-dl for a while and since it works for me it should mast likely work for the rest....

I've run into problems before where Youtube links stopped working and I had to download the latest youtube-dl so it would work properly again. Now I just figure might as well keep it up to date, so I don't have to worry about that again.

You can put it anywhere as long as you have this line (or whatever directory you'd like at the bottom of your UMS.conf file):

Code: Select all

youtube-dl.path = D:\\System\\bin\\youtube-dl.py

or

Code: Select all

youtube-dl.path = D:\\System\\bin\\youtube-dl.exe

I'd recommend just grabbing the .exe version if you didn't install Python yourself.

If you're familiar with DOS you can just type youtube-dl --version to see which version you have. Then type youtube-dl --update to update it to the latest version. Or you can just manually download it from the link above.

SharkHunter and Koroukage, thanks again! My youtube web streams are rolling again. You guys are awesome. Keep up the great work!

@R9deLima

NP. Glad everything is working for you again.
