[SlimDevices: Plugins] Guide to installing BBC iPlayer
Please could you someone provide me with some simple advice on how to install BBC iplayer. I am using picoreplayer 3.20. I have installed the bbciplayer that is on the list of plugins. It plays live ( has no icons) but does not play the non-live areas. I assume I need to update the plugin to the latest. Not sure how I do this - do I take the xml URL link and put it in the extra repositories and then apply and then re-boot? This does not appear to work I have read through many of the threads but with the hundreds of responses it is difficult to follow. Using picoreplayer - do I need to save anything before I reboot? How does the selection of the plugin get from in memory onto disk so it can be read when re-booted So in summary if someone out there can give me a quick guide that would be great.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Guide to installing BBC iPlayer
It is better to use this repo http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/bpaplugins/betarelease-repo.xml The V154 repo will only ever stay on V1.5.4.* and is the "experimental" repo with latest DASH-Flac functionality whereas the betarelease will be updated to deliver most recent stable version which is currently V1.5.3. I expect to be able tp update this "beta" repo to 1.5.4 in a few weeks once the DASH Flac playing has been fully tested - user will then be automatically notified of the update.. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107695 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Guide to installing BBC iPlayer
Thank you both for your advice. I have used bpa's suggestion. Followed Castalla's instructions and it all worked. I did backup PiCorePlayer to disk So once again thanks very much.

Bpa, I've had the 1.5.4 repo in place for a while, currently using 1.5.4.4 (and Extras 2.0.0). To follow your advice here, sounds like I should switch to the beta repo (I won't actually be listening to Proms after all). Can I do this without upset, in other words just replace the repo in settings and thereby go "back" a version? whitman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9053 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107695 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Going back can sometimes has problems with preferences. If you are not using Flac then any updates to V1.5..4.* are unlilkely to affect you. 1.5.4.* is the version which has Flac implemented. An update (soon) to 1.5.4.5 will also support the BBC live Binaural( another experiment). User of 1.5.4.* know that each version has not been tested by others and could have problems which may break the plugin and require another update. The "beta" repo ( a bit of a misnomer as the beta refers to BBCs beta HTML5 trial not the plugin version) will deliver the latest version which is "stable" which means any update will be to a version which has already been tested by other users and there is unlikely to be another update for months. So far beta repo has been 1.5.2 in November 2016 and 1.5.3 in June 2017(although 1.5.3 started testing in Feb) . The "beta" repo also inlcude the latest version of Extra. V1.5.4.0 started testing in April 2017. V1.5.4.4 was "released" in June 2017. As there are a few small bugs to be fixed and some performance tweaks I expect that 1.5.4.* will be revved soon and if there are no problems with it then by end of August - 1.5.4.6 will be put into the "beta" repo. At which point the V154 repo becomes redundant as V1.5.4.* branch development will be finished. bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107695 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

So, I carry on with 1.5.4.* and its repo, but keep an eye open for when the beta repo delivers the stable 1.5.4 (how will i know this?), and then switch to that? whitman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9053 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=107695 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
