Pstreamvid v 1.3 - Streaming Video Controller
Ok,
At this time I am in Slaxer_pup with JWM-456 (compiled for Slaxer_pup) installed. No issues with older Gxine. . Fullscreen default . (Slaxer_pup is entirely 4.1.2, only the kernel is changed to 2.6.27.7)
Cheers

When 'installed pet' menu appears, there is the usual installed to many menu entries. I found this to be a problem caused by - instead of _ in the pet name.
Did you see Barrys message in his blog to you?

BoxPup 4.1.3
Pstreamvid:
Uninstalled v1.2-8->rebooted.
Installed v1.3->rebooted.
Run Pstreamvid: <1sec to load; <1sec to close.
Love the new tabs and how quick/responsive v1.3 is.
Gxine doesn't work in BoxPup [because Gxine isn't installed I guess ]
Mplayer in use:
Time between "Play" and video window appearing:
2sec = France24; SkyNews.
3sec = NASA; BBC.
5sec = Fox11.
9sec = NBC.
Firefox:
10sec = To get to the Firefox "restore" button.
7sec = From the restore button to Firefox windows opening.

OUTSTANDING TRIO!!
Every thing I complained about has disappeared with v. 1.3.
On some channels the load and unload speed is faster than I've
ever seen before.
I'm very happy.
Great Job!

Thanks, now it's time to move on. Pstreamvid 1.3 is polished and stable, it will be in 4.3 beta1. Let's hope somebody fixes gxine -f option.
I'm on to next project. That is to make sfsinstaller gui that I made for current 4 series, adheres to 4.3 new petget and structure. So installed sfs can be uninstalled in 4.3

My name aint URL:
I thought pstreamvid wouldn;t do http streams. I was wrong.
I was trying to load the url direct from streamsniffer into
pstream, instead of copying to a text editor first.
Not only does it play http, it plays them in both gxine and
mplayer.
Here's a few streams to try.
http://ia331425.us.archive.org/2/items/ ... p4?start=0
A great animated film by Nina Paley. Based on the Sanskrit poem
"Ramayama of Valmiki" I think Lobster might dig this.
http://ia301505.us.archive.org/1/items/ ... p4?start=0
"Attack of the flesh eating bog monster from the center of the earth
and beyond the moon" A spoof of old scifi films.
These movies are from this site:
http://www.archive.org/index.php
Supposedly 190 thousand video pieces in the "moving images"
archive.
Or 150 billion pages of text, if your into reading.
have fun

Barry has decided to revert to fully functional gxine 0.5.9 (good call!), unfortunately I already designed pstreamvid 1.3 to prepare for 0.5.94. Anyway patch is provided in main post. Please install it. Thanks

There may be a valuable cross-purpose between this old thread and another older one:
.wvx stream recording
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 320#392320
Our son needs to be able to follow the .wvx pointer and play the associated video without having to downgrade to anything-MS. His laptop has Puppy 4.31 installed.
We don't need to record but do need to be able to view - right now I can paste URL into Pstreamvid 1.3 which then opens a gxine window but all we get is the audio. What are we doing wrong, please?

He needs this for an online college course that started today.

Where is the best source for mplayer?
I have used it in the past, earlier in it's life when it was really buggy, but I know that it has come a long ways.
