[SlimDevices: Plugins] Replacement plugins for AlienBBC
It is planned to retire AlienBBC. BBCiPlayer replaces AlienBBC in terms of providing access to and playing BBC programs. AlienBBC had some functionality which BBCiPlayer does not provide. The following plugins provides the missing functionality PlayReal - provide RealAudio support. Requires mplayer to be installed. There is no menu associated with the plugin but enables play URLs such as RTSP and RAM and SMIL playlists. PlayWMA - provide Linux & OSX WMA support for players that cannot play WMA natively such as SoftSqueeze, SqueezePlay and SB1. There is no menu assoicated with this plugin. The plugin can also be used to play stations which only support mms. PHCplayer - makes it easy to play Prarie Home Companion latest show and 9 previous shows. PlayReal must be installed as well. RTEplayer - makes it easy to play RTE programs and also podcasts. PlayReal must be installed as well. To install - add the following repository URL to the Plugins tab or if using 7.3 the Extensions Downloader plugin, click apply and then select the relevant plugins. http://bpaplugins.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/repo.xml -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72708 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Replacement plugins for AlienBBC
Both RTE and PHC need PlayReal installed. You should uninstall AlienBBC before installing PlayReal. The mplayer installation should not need to be changed. On Windows PlayReal and PlayWMA will download mplayer if required but on Linux ans OSX you still need to install mplayer separately. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72708 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

For x86 Linux based systems - users can add WMA lossless and WMA Pro support on x86 Linux based SBS by installing a Windows library on their Linux system. Installing a Windows library on a Linux may be illegal so it is left to the user. 1. Install PlayWMA plugin 2. Install mplayer 3. Find a copy of wma9dmod.dll either on your Windows system or via Google. Save it in the library defined by your mplayer build (on Ubuntu it is /usr/lib/win32 or /usr/local/lib/win32). Make sure permissions and ownership is correct. 4. replace the PlayWMA plugin custom-convert.conf by the attached file making sure to rename it to custom-convert.conf 5. Restart SBS and test. As the Windows library is a 32 bit x86 library, this method will not work on non x86 system or possibly on 64 bit Linux kernel. The conf file is setup to resample 48kHz file to 44.1kHz. +---+ |Filename: custom-convert.conf.txt | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=8951| +---+ -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72708 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins

Hi, I've installed the PlayWMA plug ok, but now need to install mplayer - where can I download and install this? QNAP TS-239 running SSOTS ver 4.2 (QPKG) and 7.4.1-28947 SBS. -- rollier rollier's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15351 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72708 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Replacement plugins for AlienBBC
The version of mplayer used with SSOTS and SSODS is specific to the QNAP player and you need a special build. Flipflip could be the best user to answer this - ask the question on the SSODS 4.0 support thread. -- bpa bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72708 ___ plugins mailing list plugins@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
