Some major features requested

  • Things I would love to see implemented:

    1. Auto refreshing of the stream when a live show or video ends.

    2. Having a list of channels that the plugin could pull videos from.

    Example: User A finished his show, the plugin would then go down the list in order checking if there is a live stream happening on that channel, if so it pulls the video up.

    3. Perhaps a manual refresh button on the user side that refreshes the video stream in case of an error or other unseen issue.

    4. Multiple stream selector. Having multiple streams being queued by the plugin and letting the user select which one they wish to watch.

    5. The ability to pull from other providers such as Justin.TV, Twitch.TV, UStream, or livestream.com

    Example: Tubesynch.com does this for their channels

    Thanks for the suggestions!

    #1 is definitely on our list, for multiple reasons.

    I’m working on the multi-channel streaming idea. Tell me what you think of this implementation.

    The plugin would be similar to how it is now. But where you enter a YouTube channel name, you can enter a comma-separated list.

    Then the plugin would display whichever channel has a currently active event. If no event is active, then it displays the countdown to the next upcoming pending event from whichever channel has that first.

    What do you think?

    That is the functionality I am looking for. This would be perfect for a group of youtubers who want to form together a create a network of livestreams all in one place.

    I have multichannel now working for live events. I still need to get it working for embedding a list of videos.

    You’ll see multichannel in the upcoming 2.4 release, which should be out this week or next.

    Okay, just tried out your multistream update and it doesn’t work. Here is my current account list: (zaranyzerak,skinslip,stoudman,garbagegamerz,smarkcast,welivefilm,the1ronshow,TheAficionados2010,RazMansReality,zombieregime,Rchattaway87,FlippingTheNerd)

    Now, Zaranyzerak on his own will work, but as soon as I add anybody else to the list, his video stops showing up. I tried the list without names with numbers to see if it was some issue with the numbers, but it isn’t that. I have tried it with and without spaces.

    What kind of result are you expected?

    For example, are you using live-streaming and you want the upcoming event countdown to display for whatever is the latest event?

    Are you embedding multiple videos from all of these channels?

    It would help a lot if you either screenshot or tell me what you have entered in each setting. Are you using the default shortcode?
