Opening google drive direct links with VLCKit

[gerlich]

Hey,

Reposting this at the development forum as I think it's more suitable.

I have some links to private files on google drive.
They look like this:

Code: Select all

https://r9---sn-aigllnee.googlevideo.com/videoplayback?id=caff1b9d29dd40aa&itag=37&source=webdrive&begin=0&requiressl=yes&mm=30&mn=sn-aigllnee&ms=nxu&mv=u&nh=IgpwcjAyLmxocjI1KgkxMjcuMC4wLjE&pl=24&sc=yes&mime=video%2Fmp4&lmt=1486254066109990&mt=1486364288&ip=152.62.109.216&ipbits=8&expire=1486393137&sparams=ip,ipbits,expire,id,itag,source,requiressl,mm,mn,ms,mv,nh,pl,sc,mime,lmt&signature=855695EAA2EB836FDD46D794CDA9DB3AFFDA9257.50BE46148FE04903E2BE406F27E3A2A6A8544EAE&key=ck2

This is an expired link (I have them generated each time) so it won't open for you.

When I try to open them with my application using vlckit, I get this:

I've searched the forums and found answers about youtube links, youtube lua files and so on. Nothing matches my scenario.
Now, the thing is the same link opens in the VLC app on the appleTV, so it must be something I'm doing wrong.
Please advise.

That's weird. Did you not package all the same plugins as VLC?

[gerlich]

I built the vlckit by running buildMobile.sh script with -tfb switches.
Didn't change anything.

[Jean-Baptiste Kempf]

It's possible that this uses a newer libVLC and that we broke the HTTP links?

[gerlich]

I used the dec. 1st commit 2453a955435b9cae2c1637274416a4841ce66909 if that's what you're asking.
Let me know if there's something else you need to debug this...

Is there an update to this? I have a similar issue trying to access even the most simple of HLS playlists. Logs below.
