Stream lbry.tv on AmigaOS 4

A new version of aiostreams 1.6 is available with a few fixes and lbry.tv added at the list of supported networks.

Lately I saw that a lot of Amiga and Commodore YouTubers are moving their content to lbry.tv. Also, Hans de Ruiter created his own channel there a month ago, so I thought to try and support this network in aiostreams.

Unfortunately, the website is not usable in our browsers, but with aiostreams you can perform some search on videos and channels, so to find the videos you want to watch. Also, have in mind that lbry.tv serves the videos in best available quality only, so most of them are 1080p. Unless you have a powerful machine, you might have some breaks on the video playback.

You can download the latest version from https://github.com/walkero-gr/aiostreams/releases/tag/v1.6 and an upload to OS4Depot will follow.

For any problems or recommendations, don't hesitate to contact me here or open an issue at https://github.com/walkero-gr/aiostreams/issues

Excellent, many thanks. I will definitely take a look tomorrow.

Hi Walkero.

Lbry.tv not working for me:
lbrytv.py -u https://lbry.tv/@candrsenal:c/takedown-marlin-model-1898:d

Youtube seems fine:
youtube.py -u https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08TyY1eqW3A -q 720

Please can someone test the lbry.tv cmd line above?

Thanks.

@ddni
Thanks for testing it. Is there an error that you see at the shell? I will test it on my AmigaOne later today.

@ddni

Works also not here.

Here is a SnoopyLog with fails, maybe it helps.

Thank you guys for your feedback. An updated version that fixes this problem is available at https://github.com/walkero-gr/aiostreams/releases/tag/v1.6.1

Please, give it a go and tell me how it works on your machine.

This shouldn't use the mplayer but ffplay. Check your cfg.py file and check the sPlayer to use ffplay. If you need example configuration, check the cfg.py.example file

@walkero

I don't know why it is calling MPlayer.

# Configuration
# At this file you can change the behaviour of the scripts, by setting
# various parameteres, and most important the preferred video players
#

# Set this to True to enable autoplay of the video with your preffered video player. Set it to False to disable it.
autoplay = True

# Set this to True to get more info from the script during the execution. Set it to False to disable it.
verbose = True

# Set the path to your preffered video player. This is going to be used on recorded streams only.
# This is used only if autoplay is set to True.
vPlayer = "DH1:Programs/Video/MickJT-MPlayer/mplayer-altivec"
# Set the arguments that are going to be used with your preffered video player.
vPlayerArgs = "-quiet -really-quiet -forceidx -framedrop -cache 8192"

# Set the path to your preffered video player. This is going to be used mostly on live streams,
# but depending the network, might be used on recorder streams as well.
# This is used only if autoplay is set to True.
sPlayer = "C:ffplay"
# Set the arguments that are going to be used with your preffered streaming player.
sPlayerArgs = "-loglevel quiet -infbuf -skip_loop_filter all -skip_frame noref"

If I comment out vPlayer completely then I get this error:
Traceback (most recent call last):

@ddni
It seems that you do not have the latest v1.6.1. If you do something like the below, you will be able to see the version of the script.
lbrytv.py -h

Ok I’ll check. I did get the 1.6.1 archive from github.

All fixed, deleted old folder and started fresh.
Thanks.
