SMTube update?
« on: May 21, 2016, 05:06:17 pm »
Hi Everyone!

I was attempting to stream the Warpstock videos (since they wan't play in Firefox due to lack fo Flash) but the current OS/2 version of SMTube is at 14.x level, while the latest release is 16.3.x, so I'm curious: any chance we could get an updated release?

I'm asking b/c 14.x release now complains upon startup with "Error: could not connect to Youtube server"...I assume some things have changed???

Thanks!

Have you tried removing Flash and then using Firefox or better yet the latest SeaMonkey which will handle H264+AAC streaming?
Have you tested VLC or MPlayer? They may not have OpenSSL/TLS linked in to handle the encryptiuon.

I do not actually have FLASH installed on my machine. Usually YouTube plays fine using webm, but in the case of these videos it seems it could only do flash.

Yes, tried with VLC and MPlayer, neither one could handle the URL, which was the YouTube hosted video.

Here is an example of what I got back from mplayer (which otherwise is my default player for just about all the media out there):

Hi

On the last Warpstock USA I made some test to try YouTube Live and VLC and it was working. But maybe it changed with time.

The best way to check it out is to use VLC or SMPlayer and put the URLs or some of the YouTube live videos from here: https://www.youtube.com/live
If I make it Warpstock USA this year I will also try it out to stream over YouTube again.

I ported the latest a couple of weeks ago already. But I had no time to upload. If you want to test it in between, please write me a private note.
