oh i see!
yup! every thing there is checked.

i don't know what else to say.

i love this stream feature and i double checked eveyrthing making sure it is there, but i did everything manually.

you think i should go ahead and use the package manager? do i have to remove manually all the codes? or are they going to be removed using the package manager?

now, i can see there is two files the stream 3_1 and the 4, the 4 is for SMF 1.1 Beta 3 Public., right?

IT WORKED!!!!!!! YES!!!!!!!!

i had to double checked the installation file and the <add after> < before> etc, etc.

and made sure everything was there! and for some reason... IT WORKED!!!!!

i don't know what i did, but it works man!!!!!


THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!

anyone have solution about mms:// replaced by http:// issue ?

i don't think that all of the streaming file store in web server only instead of mms server

[1948Pal]

Not sure what you mean, can you explain?

Hello, i might have missed this, so sorry if it's been asked before....

I'm a newb to message boards, and wanted to ask if this mod uses up any bandwidth?

Thanks 

[Nitro]

it depends, if the video files are saved in your server, yes! if they hosted somewhere else, no!

[komakoma]

have u try to using mms://www.adc.com/123.wmv for the streaming url under this mod

u will find that the url will become to http://mms://www.adc.com/123.wmv

it seems that can't using mms://

komakoma, does that happen only when using that mod?  Or does it get parsed that way anyways?

I'm running in to a problem with IE6 where posts that contain Windows Media Player or Quicktime files are cutting off the rest of the page.  The post with the embedded movie is the last thing to make it - any further posts and the footer are cut off.  Real Player doesn't seem to have this problem.
SMF 1.1 beta 3, with the latest version 4 of the mod.
You can see an example here:

I cannot get this to function at all. Where do I go to turn it on? and or find the bbc codes to input onto a post?

It "seemed" like it intalled ok but now I cannot remove it or uninstall it. I tried to re-install it and the test page looked succesful (the install test page using package installer) but I don't see anything. Then I tried to uninstall it and each time I try to I get this:

Uninstall Actions
Uninstall Actions "Streaming_4.0":
The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF. 

And I tried to uninstall this againby manually installing it via going to the http:...../mod_4.php file and it looked like it installed fine there too but would not then after that I was able to uninstall via control panel (with test fail errors) but it removed it or so it seemed. Then I re-installed it again and got this (again):

Install Actions
Installations actions for "Streaming_4.0":
Installing this package will perform the following actions:  Type Action Description
1. Extract File Themes/default/images/bbc/stream.gif 
2. Extract File Themes/default/images/bbc/real.gif 
3. Extract File Themes/default/images/bbc/quick.gif

but nothing appears for it on th admin panel or in the post bbc code list.

What do I do from here? Would love to get this going.

Look under karma in the admin options.  Also, do you have the 3 extra buttons in your posts?

[Anihc]

holy misplaced karma batman.....

lol ok thanks I would have never found it there, why is it stuck inside the karma box?

Works like a charm now, and yeah I have the icons for the bbc. I also re-installed all my mods too seems package handler needs some things fixed everything or most everything defaults to 666 after being uploaded took me a couple hours to change them to 777 even with ftp it would stop and fail when changing the whole directory at each 666 file so I had to delete all those modded files or dl them then re-upload them. I will make another post about that when I can figure out where it should go so it is not missed.

Thanks,

komakoma, mms and http are different protocols, this mod is set to use the http protocol. If you want to change this behavior, in Sources/Subs.post.php, find

Code Select Expand


array('tag' => 'stream', 'protocol' => 'http', 'embeddedUrl' => false, 'hasEqualSign' => false, 'hasExtra' => true),

and change the 'protocol' => 'http' to 'protocol' => 'mms'.
This should do what you want, giving that the source does support that protocol.

oops, this is my mistake, this shouldn't be under karma but under features and settings.
Will update mod.
Thanks.

I suppose you could probably make a Stream2 with mms instead of http if you wanted to do both, eh?

Nice mod, by the way

I guess its possible, or if you're familiar with this kind of stuff, and you're hosting your own media, you can create a local "ASX",  file on your server, which is a playlist file that Windows Media Player will read to determine the source of the stream it should connect to, like mms or http. Then you can put that file as the source of your streaming media.

OK, the new release moves the settings under the "Layout and Options" section of Features and Options.

Still cuts off the web page under quicktime or windows media posts for me in IE.  Strange....

Try changing the "autostart=false" to "autostart=true"  in Subs.php for both of those.
