Movie Title OSD

[k_zeon]

When playing a movie from my addon , i have noticed that if I bring up the info ie. the Timeline, name of movie, and settings etc , the name of the movie is displayed as one of my sources ie Putlocker.

When I create my menu i use the movie name to find the link, then when i click this i load up the sources.
then i click a source to play a movie.

Is there a way to set the correct movie title after i have selected a source
thanks

Are you setting your infolabels, specifically the title infolabel? I believe those determine what is displayed there

Hey Eldorado. yes i set the infolabel Title to the movie name when loading up TV SHows, i use your Metahandler to give show info etc.
Then when i select a show , i list seasons. I then pick a season and list episodes ie Season 1 Episode 1

Now when i select this link, i scrape the hosts details , ie Putlocker etc and add them to a menu

Now when i select putlocker and the movie plays, if i then show info while movie is playing i get the movie name as Putlocker.

here it the GetSource code for TV. I do pass in 'hostname' as Title so it is dsiaplayed so user can select it.

Code: Select all

elif mode == 'GetTVSource':
         
          tQual=''
          linkcount = 0
          html = net.http_GET(url).content
          reobj = re.compile(r'(?i)window.location.href = \'(.+?)\'.+?(?i)> &nbsp;(.+?)</a>', re.DOTALL | re.IGNORECASE)
          if reobj:
               for match in reobj.finditer(html):
                    url,name = match.groups()
                    url= GetHostSources('http://www.movie2k.to/' + url)
                    linkcount += 1
                    addon.add_video_item({'url': url} , {'title': str(linkcount) + '.' + name})

               addon.end_of_directory()
          else:

               # No link found only one embedded in page
               url= GetHostSources('http://www.movie2k.to/' + url)
               linkcount += 1
               addon.add_video_item({'url': url} , {'title': str(linkcount) + '.' + WebHostName(url)})
               addon.end_of_directory()

what i was thinking , is it possible that when i click a host ie putlocker i can set the title infolabel name just before i play the movie....

Create a listitem
Set the infolabels on that lisitem
Call xbmc.Player.Play(lisitem)

Check out the github source for 1Channel. I'm doing something similar, but I'm adding it to a Playlist, then calling play on the playlist

Hey Bstrdsmkr.

Having a little trouble with setting Title name.
At present i add_Videoitem with title as Putlocker and Url
then when i press play the code below gets called.

Code: Select all

if play:


     host = addon.queries.get('host', '')
     media_id = addon.queries.get('media_id', '')

     if url:
          stream_url = urlresolver.HostedMediaFile(url=url, host=host, media_id=media_id).resolve()
          addon.resolve_url(stream_url)
          addon.end_of_directory()
     else:
          dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()
          dialog.ok('Error', 'Url Not available')

I have looked at your Playlist code and cannot get it to work at all.

I know i have to use

Code: Select all

playlist = xbmc.PlayList(xbmc.PLAYLIST_VIDEO)
listitem = xbmcgui.ListItem(title, iconImage=img, thumbnailImage=img)
playlist.add(url=stream_url, listitem=listitem)
xbmc.Player().play(playlist)
playlist.clear()

and have tried using it just after addon.resolve_url(stream_url)

any tips.

probably take out the addon.end_of_directory(), the rest looks like it should work. Also, move the playlist.clear() to just before the add if you want to add other stuff before playback

tried this but still cannot get it to play

Code: Select all

if play:

     
     host = addon.queries.get('host', '')
     media_id = addon.queries.get('media_id', '')
     MovieTitle = addon.queries.get('MovieTitle', '')

 if url:
          stream_url = urlresolver.HostedMediaFile(url=url, host=host, media_id=media_id).resolve()

          title = MovieTitle
          playlist = xbmc.PlayList(xbmc.PLAYLIST_VIDEO)
          playlist.clear()
          listitem = xbmcgui.ListItem(label=title, iconImage='', thumbnailImage='', path=stream_url)
          listitem.setInfo('video', {'Title': title})
          playlist.add(url=stream_url, listitem=listitem)
          xbmc.Player().play(playlist)
         
         
          #xbmcplugin.setResolvedUrl(handle=int(sys.argv[1]), succeeded=True, listitem=listitem) 

          #addon.resolve_url(stream_url)
          #addon.end_of_directory()
     else:
          dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()
          dialog.ok('Error', 'Url Not available')

Dont worry, I figured it out.

Just a quick question.Once i have added the Resolved links to a playlist, do they play one after the other and also will there be a problem with playing the next url in playlist with wait times etc

ie on some hosts (free) you have to wait before you can play next file.
