I have created a test version (1.6.3) BBCiPlayer to solve the issue of "Listen Again "programs which don't play and are listed as podcast only such as 5Live Fighting Talk and R4's Infinite Monkey Cage. To install test version - replace the BBCiPlayer betarelease-repo.xml repo URL by
HTTP://DOWNLOADS.SOURCEFORGE.NET/PROJECT/BPAPLUGINS/TEST-DIES-29JAN19.XML BBC have made some programs appear Podcast only so when an AOD program is played - an extra check is made to see if only podcast version is available - in which case SB player will play the MP3 podcast. The new version adds an extra network fetch step to all AOD programs which can cause a slight start delay - it is dependent on networks. MP3 podcast version of program can be longer (e.g. Infinite Monkey cage podcast is 45min vs DASH 30min) Podcast are 128kbps MP3 whereas the same program from BBCiPlayerExtra would be AAC and 96kbps non-UK and possibly 320kbps for UK (TBC). I have done basic testing. I have not tested for * use by UK based users. * program which not podcast only but not available on AOD * Use on non SB player & Web clients such smartphone apps, Material skin etc. Please test and report any odd behaviour as changes could affect any AOD playback and associated metadata. AOD = Audio-On-Demand aka "Listen Again" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=109826 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
