Hi guys. The Microsoft Edge is my favorite browser of all times, really, but not when I try to watch netflix or other video streaming services, it always breaks, I have no ideia what to do anymore. Always when I try to play something there's an error and then I need to reload over and over again, sometimes even when I just play the video it stop working when I try to play again. Help me to keep using this best browser that I've ever seen.
I've ever tried to disable hardware acceleration, enable DRM content, install Microsoft Silverlight and a lot of other things, but I didn't get to watch so far without an error I keep receiving these error codes: D7356-7701 and others related. Is there's still something that can be done to really fix theses erros or I just have to be patient and wait for news versions of the browser?
Cross-platform video search is the obvious fix, but everyone (Samsung Smart Hub, Sony Internet video search, etc.) has failed to comb through multiple services. Even Google TV fails to even search Netflix results, after being on the market for almost a year. What's really needed is a service like Clicker or Fanhattan built into a streaming video box, allowing you to search all the streaming video sources you subscribe to and show pricing. (Disclosure: Clicker is a part of CBS Interactive, which also publishes CNET.)
Microsoft is the next to take on video search in the home theater with the upcoming fall Xbox Dashboard update, which includes Bing video search. It's not perfect, but it's promising to do what nobody else has been able to do yet: true cross-platform search between Netflix, Hulu Plus, and Xbox Live Marketplace. That's better than anyone else so far and Xbox is in a good position to add more searchable services, since HBO Go, Bravo, and Crackle are also headed to the console.
Even more interesting is that the Xbox is getting support from two major cable companies: Comcast and Verizon. The Xbox won't get the full offering of cable content right away, but it puts Xbox in a position to do what Google TV has been (unsuccessfully) trying to do: search through online and traditional cable content from a single search bar.
Cross-platform search would be enough to put the Xbox 360 ahead of its rivals, but Xbox Bing also takes on the other huge problem with home theater video search: text input. Typically you'll need to tediously hunt for letters using an onscreen keyboard, but with the Xbox Kinect's voice-recognition capability, you'll be able to skip that and say "Xbox Bing Parks and Recreation." (Yes, it would be better if you could say "Xbox search Park and Recreation," but that makes too much sense.) I'm not sure I'm ready to start talking to my TV, but it will almost certainly be faster than the alternative.
Even if Xbox Bing video search lives up to its potential, I doubt it will make streaming video fans run out to buy a $200 Xbox 360. It's still too expensive and the controller will turn off nongamers, even though you can control with it a standard remote. But if Xbox Bing works well, a streaming video box from Microsoft with Xbox Bing, Kinect-style voice control, and the same streaming video services could be a very compelling product.
But unfortunately there are no games to play. The search says "no games found". As I googled this is an issue that many people are currently experiencing and only happens to Xbox 360 users (which sucks).
PC and PS3 users are not having such an issue and some say that Xbox Live doesn't allow IPs from different regions to join global servers to prevent the lag, that is absolutely ridiculous. Then what's the point of having such large servers, and why are PC/PS3 users not filtered? Also, why is it that COD MW 2 and Black Ops are not having such issues? There's definitely an issue.
Occasionally there are server issues, but it's been surprisingly stable since launch as far as that's been concerned. If there's few players in the region/game type you select, sometimes the search times out, but generally you should then be placed in a lobby for other people to join you.
If your network is properly configured, and you're logged into Xbox Live successfully, make sure you're not doing anything else on your internet connection, such as Netflix streaming or downloading/uploading large files. This can negatively impact your latency and cause you issues when you're trying to find a game.
It is certainly not about "joining global servers". There are no real game servers. The game is hosted on one of the players machines (the game tries to choose the best possible host out of the players in the lobby). (If the host exits the game that's when "migration" happens).
Hi guys. I am proud to release first version of my app for streaming movies and tv shows on Original Xbox. How this started, how this works and all informations you can find on attached file in this post or there Stream Movies & TV Shows. In attached file you also have in-detail tutorial how to setup everything. Currently you have basic funcionalities, but I have a plan throughout a year to implement much more but I don't make any promises. There are three main tasks that I have to do before anything else, and that would be:
Some guys on Facebook group had problem playing certain movies. Problem is the way how file is downloaded. Some videos are downloading from begin to start and that videos don't have problem. But some videos are downloaded in wrong order (first middle, then end, after that begging) and for that videos you need to wait to download fully complete and only after that you can play it. Qucik workaround is to use YTS releases or WEBRip releases from streaming sites like Netflix, HBO, Amazon prime etc. With this file in 80% situations you won't have problem.
For TV Shows there is no problem like with movies, because almost all series came from some streaming services. But problem with TV Shows is that my algorithm for search look only for query in format "TV_SHOW_NAME SxyExy" (i.e. The Witcher S02E03). For newer series thats not problem, but for older series is problem because most older series came in one package which contains all episodes from one season and my algorithm does not find that torrents. And if it finds torrent in given query format it will return no results or will return some torrents with low number of seeders. Currently there is no workaround, wait for me to implement new search logic for TV Shows which will look for season package and extract from it particular episode.
I described everything in attached pdf of first post, please read it. Xbox app is script for XBMC4Xbox which uses TMDB API to fetch and show data. When you want to watch something that's where PC app kicks in. It's offers torrent search engine similar to one that is used for Elementum addon (i.e. PopCorn uses only YTS.MX, but Elemenutm use couple of providers which offers high quality videos), torrent streaming server engine (similar to WebTorrent, but I use torrent-stream which peerflix uses) and ffmpeg which convet from H.264/H.265 to 720p/H.263 which stock Xbox is capable of playing.
I'll try to explain on PopCorn Time app. PopCorn Time have to important parts: frontend and backend. Frontend is what you see when use app. When you click on Watch button, that is backend. So knowing that, you could look this app like this. Xbox app (script for XBMC4Xbox) is frontend, and PC app (PC API) is backend.
I could make all of this to work on Xbox but main problem is that 99% of video torrents uses H.264/H.265 which stock Xbox can't handle. That's the reason why PC API is necessearly, to convert to format that Xbox can play with acceptable video quality.
But I don't think the ffmpeg transcoding is working for me. I followed your pdf guide and have installed the latest portable windows .zip on 3 different computers. I can browse using the script on xbox perfectly and it starts downloading, just never plays the final url with movies or tv shows. I have tried playing from the script and play to xbox function. Both try to play but gets no playable file from the url. If I try the URL in VLC player without "?ffmpeg=remux" at the end it will play the original downloaded file perfectly.
Can you tell me which movie did you try? Honesly, I didnt try on Windows. My main OS is Linux. I will try on Windows and see if there are some libs that needs to be installed separately. Node.js isn't required if streams are working on VLC and PC app is starting. From log of XBMC I would say that there are some problems with FFmpeg.
