Hi

 

I think the mediaplayer needs updated with new codec's so it is possible to play Youtube mp4 1080HD format.

My Samsung tv can play it......

 

Thanks.

Coded = Drivers = Manufacture issue.

 

Although i think YouTube started providing HD videos using DASH streaming technology. Currently there is an DASH implementation on GStreamer 1.X.

Youtube works well on 6.0 rc no need additional patchs.

but no 1080P, intstead of 1080p or above, the biggest one is 720p.

Gstreamer updated 1.12.1 on 6.0 rc, how can we activiate DASH streaming in order to Youtube supporting 1080p and above video.

Install serviceapp from the plugin selection menu.

It will automatically install exteplayer3 and gstplayer as well.

Then go to Menu -> Settings -> System -> ServiceApp

And set exteplayer3 as the default playe backend.

 

Now try 1080p youtube :D

@MastaG

 

Do you know about what are you write? First check then write.

 

@kokikoku

Because there is need to provide valid dash link to exteplayer3. 

 

You can use youtube from IPTVPlayer plugin. You need enable DASH format in host configuration.

IPTVPlayer extract 1080p DASH links and give you possiblity to play them via exteplayer3.

I think MastaG's response is because he's using OpenPLi develop, which has a newer gstreamer, with dash working...


Currently in use: VU+ Duo 4K (2xFBC S2), VU+ Solo 4K (1xFBC S2), uClan Usytm 4K Pro (S2+T2), Octagon SF8008 (S2+T2), Zgemma H9.2H (S2+T2)

Due to my bad health, I will not be very active at times and may be slow to respond. I will not read the forum or PM on a regular basis.

Well @MastaG wrote about exteplayer3 not about gstreamer.

Anyway, if you want to play 1080p video quality then you need provide such link to player.

 

Plugin is responsible for links extraction and providing them to player.

When you provide link to 720p video then player will play it, when you provide link to 1080p video then player will play it.

That's all.

 

IPTVPlayer can extract links to 1080p quality from youtube service.

Never succeed to play back by YouTube on IPTVPlayer. 

There are only three options when I open YouTube on IPTVPlayer: User Links, Search, Search history.

Does it mean I must edit links by myself?

It is a pity that I cannot read your forums because I didn't find English section on your forums.

No it was also working in 1080p before, but this was a while ago using the default youtube extension (not iptvplayer).
But I was using exteplayer3 rather than gstreamer.

This was before the mpeg-dash fix in ffmpeg and I was using my old fpu-less dm800hd using serviceapp to set exteplayer3 as the default player.

I remember I had to enable 1080p in the plugin settings though.

But perhaps something changed on the youtube-side regarding url extraction or something.. Also I don't know in which format the 1080p videos are served, like I said it was a while ago :)

@MastaG

I do not know what you remember.
But mpeg-dash fix in ffmpeg have nothing to do with this.
extplayer3 can handle separate link for video and for audio.
 
This is how it is used for to handle 1080p videos from youtube.
As I know service app does not support of separate url for video and audio.
And probably YouTube plugin not support such double links.
 
Anyway, it is still possible to prepare one single link for dash manifest which will be handled by both exteplayer and gstreamer with dash support.
 
@athoik

To be honest I not checked this because I do not have set-top-box which can handle such video.

But as I know youtube not support H.265/HEVC coded.

So, even when you get link with resolution bigger than FHD it will be codec with H.264 and as I know currents 4K receivers can not handle H.264 codec with resolution higher then FHD.

Am i right?

 

YouTube can also provide links to video which use vp9 codecs, but I do not know if present on the market set-top-boxes support such codec with resolution higher than FHD?

I don't understand what problem do you have to find video using search function?

Dear @sss,

AFAIK, indeed current receivers cannot handle H264 in resolution bigger than FHD.

Although, 4K VP9 should be possible!

VP9 4Kp60 (7262/7252S)
VP9 4Kp60 (7251S,7261)

So will grab an 4k vp9 sample and test soon.

Set-top-box based on android maybe have opportunity to use vp9 codes.

I do search, but the search result always is ' No item to display. Please press to refresh.' I select https validate 'yes' on setting, but same search result.

 

On the latest version ‘169.00.06.00’, there is no 'Allow dash format' option on Youtube.

 

I tested webstream -> Weebtv, Apple Trailers, They works well.

 

Localmedia and Apple Trailers, when video aspect > 16:9, it still displays full on 16:9 screen, same bug with Openpli internal media player.
